Solvent-free Synthesis of 5-Azacytosine with Microwave Activation

Azacytosine (4-amino-1,2-dihydro-1,3,5-triazin-2-one) is a very important intermediate in the synthesis of 5-azacytidine which showed remarkable bacteriostatic and cytostatic activity as well as against T-4 lymphoma and L-1210 leukemia in mice. Starting with N-cyanoguanidine (dicyandiamide) and formic acid, under the solvent-free microwave activation, we synthesized 5-azacytosine in short time (4min) with good yield (60.4%). The structure of the product was confirmed by HNMR and Elemental a…

Laser photolysis of interaction of poly-guanylic acid (5′) with anthraquinone-2-sulfonate

The electron transfer reaction between triplet anthraquinone-2-sulfonate and poly- guanylic acid (5′) in CH3CN-H2O (97:3) has been investigated by 248 nm (KrF) laser flash photolysis. The transient absorption spectra and kinetics obtained from the interaction of triplet anthraquinone-2-sulfonate and poly[G] demonstrate that the primary ionic radical pair, radical cation of poly[G] and radical anion of anthraquinone-2-sulfonate have been detected simultaneously. The free energy changes in the process of the electron transfer were also calculated.     

Mechanism of the Low-Temperature Interaction of Hydrogen with α-Oxygen on FeZSM-5 Zeolite

The mechanism of a low-temperature reaction of hydrogen with the radical anion surface oxygen species (-oxygen, ) formed by decomposing N₂O over FeZSM-5 zeolite was studied using kinetic and isotope techniques. It was found that the reaction is of first order with respect to hydrogen and the rate of the reaction is proportional to the concentration of . The activation energy of the reaction, which was measured for ₂ or D₂ over a temperature range from +20 to –;;100°, is equal to 3.2 or 5.3 kcal/mol, respectively. The reaction occurs with a considerable kinetic isotope effect (k /k _D), which varies over the range of 3.4–;;41 depending on the temperature. This fact indicates that the rate-limiting step of the reaction includes the dissociation of the hydrogen molecule. The temperature dependence of the isotope effect gave a value of 2.1 kcal/mol, which is close to the difference between the zero bond energies in the molecules of ₂ and D₂; this fact suggests that a tunnel effect does not significantly contribute to the reaction. The dissociative mechanism is consistent with data obtained by in situ IR spectroscopy. The interaction of hydrogen with -oxygen is accompanied by the formation of new hydroxyl groups (absorption bands at 3635 and 3674 cm^–;;1) at the surface of the zeolite. The identification of these groups was supported by an isotope shift either on the replacement of ₂ by D₂ or on the replacement of ¹⁶ by ¹⁸. The stoichiometric ratio ₂ : is consistent with the previously drawn conclusion on the paired arrangement of -sites.

Simulation of the molecular and electronic structure of C60 fullerene π-complex with twelve half-sandwich species FeC5H5

The problem of existence of ⁵--complexes of fullerenes and their derivatives is discussed. The stability of the ⁵--complex C₆₀(FeCp)₁₂ (viz., icosahedral C₆₀ fullerene coated with twelve FeCp groups, each coordinated to its own pentagonal face of the fullerene cage) was first estimated in the framework of density functional approach (PBE approximation). The molecular and electronic structure of a biradical complex of C₆₀ fullerene with ten FeCp groups, C₆₀(FeCp)₁₀ (D _5d symmetry), and a 2⁵--complex of substituted fullerene H₁₀C₆₀, H₁₀C₆₀(FeCp)₂ (D _5d symmetry) in which hydrogen atoms are attached to the C atoms in the -positions relative to the atoms of the polar five-membered cycles, was simulated. According to calculations, the coated complex, I _h-C₆₀(FeCp)₁₂, should be much more stable than the complex of naked fullerene with one or two polarly located FeCp groups and only slightly less stable than the ferrocene molecule FeCp₂. The existence of C₆₀(FeCp)₁₂ and H₁₀C₆₀(FeCp)₂ complexes was suggested.
