Volumetric Properties of Sodium Nitrobenzoate in <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>, <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-Dimethylformamide–Water Mixtures at 298.15 K

Densities of sodium nitrobenzoate (o-, m-, p-) have been measured in dimethylformamide (DMF)–water mixtures at 298.15 K with an oscillating-tube densimeter. From these densities, apparent molar volumes of sodium nitrobenzoate in DMF–H₂O-mixtures have been calculated and partial molar volumes at infinite dilution have been evaluated. Substituent and solvent effects on the transfer volumes of each isomer from water to DMF–H₂O-mixed solvents have also been obtained. The results are explained in terms of solvent–solvent and solute–solvent interactions.     

Phase Equilibria for Quaternary Systems of Water + Methanol or Ethanol + Ethyl Methyl Carbonate + Octane at <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis> = 298.15 K

Liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data were measured at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure for the quaternary [water + methanol + ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) + octane] and (water + ethanol + EMC + octane) systems, and relevant ternary (water + methanol + EMC), (water + ethanol + EMC), (water + ethanol + octane) and (water + EMC + octane) systems. The modified and extended UNIQUAC activity coefficient models were employed to correlate the experimental LLE results, which were also correlated by the Othmer–Tobias equation. The separation factors were calculated from the LLE data. The extracting selectivity of methanol and ethanol from aqueous solutions using pure EMC and mixed solvent (EMC + octane) was studied.     

Effect of Temperature on the Volumetric Properties of <Emphasis Type="Italic">α</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">ω</Emphasis>-Amino Acids in Dilute Aqueous Solutions

The partial molar volume at infinite dilution of aqueous solutions of 3-aminopropanoic acid, 4-aminobutanoic acid, 5-aminopentanoic acid and 6-aminohexanoic acid were determined at T=(293.15,298.15,303.15 and 308.15 K) from density measurements. The thermodynamic behavior of the aqueous α,ω-amino acid solutions is compared with that reported for α-amino acids in water. The interaction volume is calculated and the influence of charged and uncharged groups of the amino acids is discussed in terms of solute–solvent interactions.     

Computer models of eutectic-type <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis>–<Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis>–<Emphasis Type="Italic">y</Emphasis> diagrams with allotropy

Using the eutectic-type T–x–y diagram as an example, it can be represented the analysis of its geometrical construction dependence on the temperature of a component two polymorphous modifications which participate in mono- and invariant metatectic and invariant eutectic (eutectoid) transformations above or below (and within) binary eutectics temperature intervals and below a ternary eutectic temperature. Computer models for considered phase diagrams have been designed. Such models help to solve applied tasks like visualization, isopleths and isothermal sections decoding, mass balances calculation and evaluation of phase and conglomerate concentration in microstructure.     

Studies of some Thermodynamic Properties of Binary Mixtures of Acrylonitrile with Aromatic Ketones at <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis>=308.15 K

Densities (ρ), ultrasonic speeds (u), and excess molar volumes (V_m^EV_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{E}}) of binary mixtures of some aromatic ketones in acrylonitrile have been measured over the entire range of composition at 308.15 K. From these experimental results, parameters such as the isentropic compressibilities K _S , interaction parameter χ ₁₂, Flory parameters, A _i coefficients, standard deviations σ(Y ^E), and molar sound velocities R _m have been estimated. The excess functions were fitted to Redlich-Kister type polynomial equations. The experimental ultrasonic speeds were analyzed in terms of Jacobson’s Free Length Theory (FLT), Schaaff’s Collision Factor Theory (CFT), Nomoto’s relation, and Van Dael’s ideal mixture relation. The intermolecular Free Length L _f, and available volume V _a, have been calculated from the FLT, CFT, and thermoacoustic approaches for binary systems of acetophenone and propiophenone in acrylonitrile at 308.15 K.

1,3-Diamino-2-Hydroxypropane-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>′-Tetraacetic Acid: Crystal and Molecular Structures

The synthesis, IR spectroscopic study, and X-ray diffraction analysis (CIF file CCDC no. 1574078) are carried out for 1,3-diamino-2-hydroxypropane-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (I). The structural units of a crystal of compound I are (H_4.5HPdta)^0.5– anions, (H_5.5HPdta)^0.5+ cations, and molecules of water of crystallization joined by a branched network of hydrogen bonds: strong intermolecular O–H…O and intramolecular N–H…O bonds.     

Volumetric Properties for Binary and Ternary Mixtures Containing Benzyl Alcohol,Ethyl Butyrate and Diethyl Malonate at <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis> = (293.15–313.15) K and <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis> = 0.087 MPa

The densities of binary and ternary mixtures of benzyl alcohol + ethyl butyrate and/or diethyl malonate were measured at T = (293.15–313.15) K and p = 0.087 MPa. From these data, the excess molar volumes, partial molar volumes, excess partial molar volumes, partial molar volumes at infinite dilution, thermal expansion coefficients and their excess values were calculated. The Redlich–Kister equations were fitted to the excess molar volumes data. The results show that the excess molar volumes for all considered binary and ternary systems are negative and decrease with increasing temperature. The same behavior was observed for the excess thermal expansion coefficients. Data for excess volumes in ternary system were fitted with the Nagata–Tamura and Cibulka models for which the Cibulka equation showed better fitting. The intermolecular interactions between molecules in these mixtures are discussed and explained based on these experimental data.     

Synthesis of 20<Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>-protopanaxadiol <Emphasis Type="Italic">β</Emphasis>-D-galactopyranosides

20S-Protopanaxadiol (3β,12β,20S-trihydroxydammar-24-ene) 3-, 12-, and 20-O-β-D-galactopyranosides were synthesized for the first time. Condensation of 12β-acetoxy-3β,20S-dihydroxydammar-24-ene (1) and 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-D-galactopyranosylbromide (α-acetobromogalactose) (2) under Koenigs–Knorr conditions with subsequent removal of the protecting groups resulted in regio- and stereoselective formation of 20S-protopanaxadiol 3-O-β-D-galactopyranoside, an analog of the natural ginsenoside Rh₂. Glycosylation of 12β,20S-dihydroxydammar-24-en-3-one (5) by 2 with subsequent treatment of the reaction products with NaBH₄ in isopropanol and deacetylation with NaOMe gave 20S-protopanaxadiol 12- and 20-O-β-Dgalactopyranosides.     

Ultrasonic Investigations in Ternary Mixtures Containing Water, 2-Butoxyethanol and <Emphasis Type="Italic">t</Emphasis>-Butanol at 298.15 K

Ultrasonic speeds in, and isentropic compressibilities of, aqueous solutions of water + 2-butoxyethanol (2BE)+t-butanol have been determined at 298.15 K. The concentrations of t-butanol at which the ultrasonic speed becomes maximum and isentropic compressibility becomes minimum are found to decrease with increases in the concentration of 2BE, x _2BE, in the cosolvent (aqueous 2BE). This behavior indicates that the aqueous ternary solutions are less structured than aqueous t-butanol. In the presence of 2-butoxyethanol, enhancement in the hydrogen bonded structure of water due to hydrophobic hydration between t-butanol and water molecules decreases as the concentration of x _2BE in the cosolvent increases. When x _2BE>0.2, the ternary solution behaves like a normal liquid. This behavior is also very well reflected in the concentration dependence of the excess ultrasonic speed and excess isentropic compressibility. The optimum concentrations of t-butanol, ($x_{\mathrm{t}\mbox{-}\mathrm{B}}$x_{\mathrm{t}\mbox{-}\mathrm{B}})_opt, at which extrema in ultrasonic speed, isentropic compressibility, excess ultrasonic speed and excess isentropic compressibility are observed decrease with increase in x _2BE in the cosolvent. The results are explained as being due to a reduction in the strength of hydrophobic interactions responsible for enhancement in the structure of water in aqueous t-butanol in the presence 2BE. Beyond (x_t-Bx_{\mathrm{t}\mbox{-}\mathrm{B}})_opt, the hydrogen bonded network of water collapses and water, 2-butoxyethanol and t-butanol molecules interact with each other as normal liquid molecules.

The sodium salt of N-(6-chloronicotinoyl)-γ-aminobutyric acid, a structural analog of the known nootropic and vasidilating drug picamilon, was synthesized via Schotten–Baumann acylation of γ-aminobutyric acid with 6-chloronicotinoyl chloride and subsequent neutralization of the N-(6-chloronicotinoyl)-γ-aminobutyric acid that was obtained in >60% yield.     

Directed Aminomethylation of Pyrrole,Indole, and Carbazole with <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N′</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">N′</Emphasis>-Tetramethylmethanediamine

Catalytic aminomethylation of pyrrole and indole with N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylmethanediamine in the presence of 5 mol % of ZrOCl₂·8H₂O proceeds selectively at the positions 2, 5 of pyrrole and 1, 3 of indole. Carbazole under the same conditions affords 3-formyl-9-aminomethyl derivative. The reaction in the presence of 5 mol % of K₂CO₃ occurs as monoaminomethylation: for pyrrole at the position 2, for indole at the position 3, and for carbazole at the nitrogen atom of the substrate. Water-soluble 1,1′-(1H-pyrrole-2,5-diyl)bis(N,N-dimethylmethanamine) exhibits a fungistatic activity with respect to phytopathogenic fungi Rhizoctonia solani.

Volumetric Properties for Binary Mixtures of Nonane + Decane at Temperatures from <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis>=283.15 to 353.15 K and at <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>=0.7 atm

Densities of the binary mixture of nonane with decane were measured at temperatures from 283.15 to 353.15 K at atmospheric pressure (0.7 atm). Measurements have been made over the full range of compositions and for the pure compounds by using a vibrating-tube densimeter (VTD). Excess molar volumes have been obtained from these experimental results and were fitted to a Redlich–Kister type expansion. The excess molar volumes exhibit small positive and small negative deviations from ideal behavior in the temperature interval studied. Partial molar volumes and partial molar volumes at infinite dilution have been determined for each component.

Flash vacuum thermolysis of trimethylsilyl tert-butylphosphonohalidates involved elimination of halo(trimethyl)silane with the formation of tert-butyl-λ⁵-phosphanedione whose structure was confirmed by chemical reactions. tert-Butyl-λ⁵-phosphanedione readily undergoes trimerization, reacts with 2-phenyloxirane to give cycloaddition product, and takes up alcohols.     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">β</Emphasis>-Chloro-<Emphasis Type="Italic">α</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic">β</Emphasis>-unsaturated carbonyls as convenient precursors of highly substituted benzenes

The Diels–Alder reactions of three β-chloro-α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds 1–3 with different dienes were carried out to afford highly functionalized cyclohexenes 4–9, bearing quaternary centers, in good yields. These cycloadducts (CAs) undergo dehydrochlorination with subsequent aromatization in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene DBU to produce new substituted benzenes 11–14. Compound 10 is the product of lactonization and removal of an HCl molecule from compound 7. All products were characterized by NMR, IR, elementary analysis and some of them by MS. Structure assignments of isomers were carried out on the basis of NMR chemical shifts and coupling constants using 1D, 2D and heteronOe NMR techniques.

β-Methoxycarbonyl-γ-butyrolactones bearing a γ-aromatic substituent were prepared via copper-catalyzed reductive aldol addition/lactonization domino reactions of ketones with α,β-unsaturated dicarboxylate esters and a silane under ambient temperature. The reaction has advantage of using readily available reagents, mild conditions and high efficiency.     

Adsorption of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-hydrocinnamoyl-<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-phenylhydroxylamine on pure minerals

Equilibrium adsorption studies of N-hydrocinnamoyl-N-phenylhydroxylamine (HCNPHA) on galena, sphalerite, pyrite, chalcopyrite and quartz at pH 9 and 10 are reported. All adsorption isotherms followed Langmuir model, however, Freundlich type was observed for quartz. As HCNPHA is a strong chelating agent, formation of monolayers by chemisorption appeared to be the most probable mechanism of adsorption on the base-metal sulphide minerals. Specific adsorption of HCNPHA on iron containing minerals, namely, chalcopyrite and pyrite, was about three times that on galena and sphalerite, and specific adsorption on quartz was the lowest amongst the minerals studied. Specific adsorptions (in μmol/g) of HCNPHA on the minerals at pH 9 are: sphalerite: 30.5; galena: 26.9; chalcopyrite: 112.3; pyrite: 145.4; quartz: 2.9. Compared to pH 9, specific adsorption of HCNPHA on the minerals decreased at pH 10, indicating hydroxylation of mineral sites due to higher hydroxide ion concentration at pH 10. A spectral-colorimetric procedure was developed for the quantitative estimation of HCNPHA. Due to deprotonation of hydroxamic acids direct estimation using UV absorption was not possible. Hence, complexation of HCNPHA with Fe³⁺ was used to develop a purple coloured complex that absorbs in the visible region with λ _max=500 nm. Change in concentration of HCNPHA was measured from absorbance of the HCNPHA- Fe³⁺ complex at 500 nm.
