Investigations of 2,3′-biquinolyl. 9. Reaction of 1′,4′-dihydro-2,3′-biquinolyl with organolithium compounds

The 1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyl reacts with organolithium compounds to form the mixture of 4-R-1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls and 2-R-1,2-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls in the ratio analogous to the conversion in the series of 2,3-biquinolyl. The utilization of the complex, the organolithium compound-TMEDA, in this process leads, after treatment of the reaction mixture with water, exclusively to 2-R-1,2-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls. Treatment with methyl iodide leads to 1-methyl-2-R-1,2-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls.     

Synthesis and protonation of 2,3′-biquinolyl dianions

It has been shown that the reaction of 2, 3-biquinolyls with an excess of lithium in tetrahydrofuran leads to the formation of dianions, treatment of which with water or D₂O gives 1, 4-dihydro-2, 3-biquinolyls or their 4-D derivatives in good yield. Oxidation of the latter leads to 4-D-2,3-biquinolyl. The reduction of 2, 3-biquinolyl has been studied.Stavropol State University, Stavropol 355009. Rostov State University, Rostov-on-Don 344090.

Studies of the atomization mechanism in a graphite furnace—I. The contents of the gaseous impurities in the furnace and their variations

Using theoretical calculations of the partial pressures of gaseous impurities in the atmosphere in a GFA as a basis, the authors arrived at conclusions which are at variance with those of L'vov and frech and their co-workers. Accordingly, the partial pressure of free oxygen (p_o) in a GFA originates predominantly from the thermal decomposition of the oxides of the analyte and impurities in the matrix during atomization when the temperature is higher than 1000°C; then, p_o depends on the nature of the sample. The total amount of oxygen in a GFA depends on the initial amount of it in the argon gas and the amount released from the sample when the temperature is lower than 1000°C.The variation of the partial pressure of CO is for the first time characterized as follows: the content of CO, which is mainly dependent on the sample and the total amounts of gaseous impurities in the argon purge gas, does not vary markedly with the temperature and other factors during the whole process of atomization. The gaseous impurities exist mainly in the form of CO.

Investigation of regioselectivity in the synthesis of spiro [pyrrolidine-2,3′-oxindoles] by use of the Huisgen reaction

The Huisgen reaction has been used to synthesize five-membered heterocyclic compounds in high yield and with high regio and stereoselectivity. In the synthesis of spiro [pyrrolidine-2,3′-oxindole] derivatives from isatin, α-amino acids, and (E)-β-phenyl nitroolefins, two regioisomers were obtained in each reaction. The regioselectivity of the major product was found to be different from that in reported work, and was investigated at the B3LYP/6-311G* level of theory. On the basis of this new finding, several conditions, for example molar ratio, solvent, and temperature, which affect the regioselectivity of this reaction were investigated; the results obtained are discussed. It was found that the regioselectivity of this reaction was affected by solvent and temperature, irrespective of the ratio of the reactants. Low temperature and high solvent polarity leads to high regioselectivity, and protic solvents result in higher yield and regioselectivity. These results are of benefit for regioselective synthesis of some compounds.
