Conductance in isodielectric mixtures. III.i-butyronitrile with chlorobenzene,o-dichlorobenzene,p-dichlorobenzene, 1,2-dichloroethane,andn-pentanol

The conductance of tetrabutylammonium tetraphenylboride, picrate, perchlorate, and nitrate has been measured at 25°C in mixtures ofi-butyronitrile with chlorobenzene,o-dichlorobenzene,p-dicholorobenzene, 1,2-dichloroethane, andn-pentanol covering the range of dielectric constants 10D20. In these mixtures of polar solvents, both association constants and ionic mobilities depend on ion-solvent interaction energies and on free volume in a manner that is specific for each system. This failure of the primitive model (rigid charged spheres in a continuum) is shown to be the consequence of short-range spatial and energetic interactions between ions and adjacent solvent molecules.     

Dielectric studies of molecular complexes ofDDT with some compounds of biological interest

The molecular complexation ofDDT (acceptor) with some compounds of biological interest as donors (e.g. indole, 2-methylindole, 3-methylindole, benzene and naphthalene) have been studied using refractive index,Guggenheim and dielectric titration plot methods. The interaction between these donors with solvents (CCl₄ and C₆H₆) have also been observed by calculating _ind through _ind=_sol–_inert. These data have shown that the molecular interaction between polar solutes and non-polar aromatics is governed by dipole-induced dipole electrostatic attraction. The dipole moment obtained due to charge transfer (_DA) has also been calculated and found that its value increases with the increase in the extent of interaction between donor and acceptor. These data support the charge-transfer complex formation hypothesis for the mode of action ofDDT on molecular level.

Dielektrizitäts-Untersuchungen an Molekülkomplexen von DDT mit einigen biologisch relevanten Verbindungen

Zusammenfassung Es wurden Molekülkomplexe vonDDT (als Acceptor) mit einigen Verbindungen von biologischem Interesse (als Donoren: Indol, 2-Methyl-indol, 3-Methyl-indol, Benzol und Naphthalin) mittels Brechungsindex,Guggenheim-Methode und dielektrischer Titration untersucht. Dipolmomentberechnungen ergaben, daß die intermolekulare Wechselwirkung von einer Anziehung induzierter Dipol-Dipol bestimmt wird; es wurde auch der charge-transfer-Anteil des Dipolmoments abgeschätzt. Alle diese Daten unterstützen die Annahme der charge-transfer-Komplexierung vonDDT.

Comparative EPR study of copper(II) complexes with threonine derivatives

Summary In order to get better insight into the structural reasons for different properties of copper(II) complexes withL-threonine,L-allo-threonine,L-N,N-dimethyl-threonine, andL-N,N-dimethyl-allo-threonine, their EPR spectra were studied as a function ofpH and temperature. AtpD9.4, in all complexes a change in the copper(II) coordination sphere from the glycine to the hydroxy type was observed. Inbis(L-threoninato)copper(II), the hydroxy type formed atpD9.4 was found to be stablized by increasing the temperature of the solution from 280 to 320 K. In all other copper(II) complexes, the conformational change is accompanied by the disruption of the Cu-N bond of one chelate ring.

Vergleichende EPR-Untersuchungen von Kupfer(II)-Threonin-Komplexen

Zuzammenfassung Um einen besseren Einblick in die Beziehungen zwischen Struktur und Eigenschaften von Kupfer(II)-Komplexen mitL-Threonin,L-allo-Threonin,L-N,N-Dimethyl-Threonin undL-N,N-Dimethyl-allo-Threonin zu gewinnen, wurden ihre EPR-Spektren in Abhängigkeit vompH-Wert und von der Temperatur untersucht. Bei einempH-Wert von 9.4 (in deuterierter Lösung) wurde eine Veränderung in der Kupfer (II)-Koordinationssphäre festgestellt, die von einer Glycin-ähnlichen Konformation in eine vermutlich Hydroxy-ähnliche Konformation übergeht. Derbis(L-Threoninato)-Kupfer (II)-Hydroxy-Komplex wird durch eine Temperaturerhöhung von 280 auf 320K stabilisiert. Die Veränderung der Koordination vom Glycin-Typ wird von einem Bruch der Cu-N-Bindung eines Chelatrings begleitet.

     

Synthesen von Aminomethylen-γ-halogenacetessigsäurederivaten und deren Ringschlußreaktionen zu 3-Hydroxypyrrolen,Pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidonen bzw. 4-Chinolonen β,β-Diacyl-enamine und-enole, 5. Mitt.

Condensation of alkyl -haloacetoacetates (or -chloroacetoacetanilide) with triethoxymethane and primary (hetero)aromatic amines gives in a one step synthesis under mild conditions new ,-diacyl-enamines (2 a-m, 3 a-d). In contrast, the N-alkylsubstituted derivatives could be synthesized only in a two step procedurevia the enolethers6 a, b. According to their ir-specra, most of the aminomethylene--haloacetoacetic acid derivatives are stereochemically fixed either in theE- orZ-form. The pmr-spectra, however, show that they exist as mixtures of at least two isomers in solution.With KOH or sodium acetate, a ring closure to 3-hydroxy-pyrroles (8, 9) could be achieved whereas with pyridine only quarternary pyridinium salts (11) are formed. Acidic (orLewis acidic) condensing agents leave the chloroacetyl group unaffected and give either free carboxylic acids (2 p-r) pyrido-[1,2-a]pyrimidones (12) or 4-quinolones (13), depending on the type of the molecule and the reaction temperatures employed.

Phase behavior and dynamic properties in mixed systems of anionic and cationic surfactants: lithium perfluorooctanesulfonate/diethanolheptadecafluoro-2-undecanolmethylammonium chloride (DEFUMAC) and lithium dodecyl sulfate/DEFUMAC aqueous mixtures

Two ternary phase diagrams of the cationic perfluorosurfactant diethanolheptadecafluoro-2-undecanolmethylammonium chloride (DEFUMAC) with an anionic perfluorosurfactant lithium perfluorooctanesulfonate (LiFOS) and an anionic hydrocarbon surfactant lithium dodecyl sulfate (LiDS) have been established at 25°C. The total surfactant concentration was less than 20wt%. In a wide mixing region of the LiFOS/DEFUMAC system, a lamellar-type phase,P , was identified by its texture under a polarization microscope and by its x-ray diffraction pattern. Dispersed fragments ofP -phase are present in the dilute solutions in which one surfactant was in excess. The anisotropy of electrical conductivity, flow birefringence, dynamic light scattering, and electric briefringence demonstrate that theP fragments are disk-like with a radius of 0.7 m. The disk-likeP particles are transformed by shear into a spherical aggregate ofL above a critical shear gradient. LiDS/DEFUMAC mixed solution forms dispersed and precipitatedL in the dominant region. Radius and micropolarity of the dispersedL aggregates are decreased as the ratio of LiDS:DEFUMAC approaches 1:1. On the basis of x-ray diffraction measurement the structure of precipitatedL -phase seems to consist of monolayers.     

Electrode kinetics and thermodynamic study of complexes of palladium(II) at D.M.E.

Polarographic study of Pd(II) reveals that it reduces quasireversibly at d.m.e. in 0.2M-pyridine+0.1N-HCl medium. Kinetic parameters of Pd(II) in various concentrations of -resorcyclic acid were calculated usingGellings method and thus the effect of concentration of -resorcyclic acid on the kinetics of the reduction of Pd(II) has been explained.DeFord/Hume graphical extrapolation method and the mathematical method ofMihailov have been employed for the evaluation of overall formation constants of the complexes formed with -resorcyclic acid. The logarithmic values of overall formation constants ₁, ₂ and ₃ obtained by the two methods are 7.47, 8.60, 9.66 (DeFord andHume Method) and 7.44, 8.64, 9.66 (Mihailov Method) at 298 K. Thermodynamic parameters of these complexes are reported.

Strukturelle Abwandlungen an partiell silylierten Kohlenhydraten mittels Triphenylphosphan/Azodicarbonsäurediethylester, 4. Mitt.: Transformationen an Mannose und Galaktose

Reaction of methyl -D-galactopyranoside (1) with two equivalents oft-butyldimethylchlorosilane yields methyl 2,6-bis-O-(tBDMSi)--D-galactopyranoside (1 b), methyl 3,6-bis-O-(tBDMSi)--D-galactopyranoside (1 c) and methyl 4,6-bis-O-(tBDMSi)--D-galactopyranoside (1 d). Likewise methyl -D-mannopyranoside (6) affords methyl 2,6-bis-O-(tBDMSi)--D-mannopyranoside (6 d) and methyl 3,6-bis-O-(tBDMSi)--D-mannopyranoside (6 b), which can be isomerised withTPP/DEAD to methyl 4,6-bis-O-(tBDMSi)--D-mannopyranoside (6 f). Methyl 6-O-(tBDMSi)--D-galactopyranoside (1 a) and methyl 6-O-(tBDMSi)--D-mannopyranoside (6 a) can be prepared from1 or6 with one equivalent oft-butyldimethylchlorosilane.Without an external nucleophile the sugar derivatives1 a and1 b react withTPP/DEAD to form the 3,4-carbonato--D-galactopyranosides1 h and1 i and the 3,4-carbonato-2-O-ethoxycarbonyl--D-galactoside (1 j). In contrast to the formation of the compound1 i by means ofTPP/DEAD the reaction of1 a withTPP and Di-t-butyl-azodicarboxylate (DTBAD) yields the 2,3-anhydro--D-taloside (4 b) and only a small amount of1 i. The epoxide4 b can be cleaved withp-nitrobenzoylchloride/pyridine to the 3-chloro-3-deoxy-2,6-di-O-p-nitrobenzoyl--D-idoside (5). Reaction of1 c and1 d withTPP/DEAD yields the 2,3-anhydro--D-gulopyranoside (2), which can be transformed with NaN₃/NH₄Cl to the 2-azido-2-deoxy--D-idopyranoside (3).Likewise6 a and6 d can be converted to the 3,4-anhydro--D-talosides (7 a and7 b). Reaction of7 b or6 d withTPP/DEAD/NH₃ leads to 3,4-anhydro-2-azido-2-deoxy--D-galactopyranoside (8) and 3-azido-3-deoxy--D-altropyranoside (10), resp.The epoxide7 b is opened with NaN₃/NH₄Cl to the 4-azido-4-deoxymannosides (11 a and11 c) and the 3-azido-3-deoxy--D-idopyranoside (12), while the epoxide8 affords the 2,4-di-azido-2,4-dideoxy--D-glucopyranoside (9).Structures were elucidated by¹H-NMR-analysis of the corresponding acetates.

First and second thermodynamic mixing properties of ethylbenzene +n-alkanes: Experimental and theory

Isobaric expansibilities _P and isothermal compressibilities _T have been determined at 25 and 45°C for binary mixtures of ethylbenzene + n-tetradecane and + n-hexadecane and the corresponding excess functions (V ^E /T)_P and (V ^E /P)_T have also been obtained. With these data and supplementary literature values, the following second order mixing properties are also reported at 25°C: _S ^E , (V ^E /P)_T, C_V and (VT). All mixing quantities have been compared with the results obtained at 25°C by using the Prigogine-Flory-Patterson theory of liquid mixtures. The predicted values suggest that the ability of ethylbenzene as a breaker of the pure n-C_n orientations is similar to what we found for toluene and higher than for p-xylene.

Concerning the absorption and emission properties of phenanthro[1,10,9,8,o,p,q,r,a]perylene-7,14-dione

Summary In contrast to hitherto published data, phenanthro[1,10,9,8,o,p,q,r,a]perylene-7,14-dione, the fundamental chromophoric system of hypericin type compounds, exhibits an absorption with a long wavelength band at 423 nm in aprotic solvents like dimethylsulfoxide (7000). Its fluorescence in these solvents is below the detection limit. In protic solvents like methanol, the long wavelength absorption is bathochromically shifted to 546 nm, and a fluorescence at 565 nm is observed. This behavior was interpreted from the reversal ofn – * and – * transitions. The data have not been recorded yet due to the very low solubility of this compound. Its monoprotonation in ground and excited states is characterized bypK _a andpK* _a values of –6 and 2; diprotonation occurs at apK _a=–7.

Absorptions- und Emissions-Eigenschaften von Phenanthro[1,10,9,8,o,p,q,r,a]perylen-7,14-dion (Kurze Mitt.)

Zusammenfassung Im Gegensatz zu bislang publizierten Daten zeigt Phenanthro[1,10,9,8,o,p,q,r,a]perylen-7,14-dion, das fundamentale chromophore System der Hypericintyp-Verbindungen, in aprotischen Lösungsmitteln wie Dimethylsulfoxid eine Absorption mit einer langwelligen Bande bei 423 nm (7000). In diesen Lösungsmitteln ist Fluoreszenz nicht nachweisbar. In protischen Lösungsmitteln wie Methanol wird die langwellige Bande bathochrom verschoben (546 nm) und bei 565 nm tritt Fluoreszenz auf. Dieses Verhalten wurde mit der Umkehr in der Reihenfolge vonn – * und – * Übergängen interpretiert. Die Daten wurden wegen der extremen Schwerlöslichkeit dieser Verbindung bislang nicht erhalten. Die Monoprotonierung im Grund- und Anregungszustand ist durchpK _a- undpK* _a -Werte von –6 und 2 charakterisiert; die Diprotonierung tritt beipK _a=–7 ein.
