A reaction of 3,6-di(tert-butyl)-4-chloro-1,2-benzoquinone with potassium ethyl xanthate. New sulfur-containing o-quinones

In a reaction of 3,6-di(tert-butyl)-4-chloro-1,2-benzoquinone with potassium ethyl xanthate, the halogen atom was replaced by the ethyl xanthate group. Acid hydrolysis of the product gave 4,7-di(tert-butyl)-5,6-dihydroxy-1,3-benzodithiol-2-one containing a pyrocatechol fragment, which was oxidized into the corresponding quinone. When irradiated in solution with visible light, this quinone quantitatively eliminated a CO molecule with contraction of the ring to a five-membered one. The quinones obtained were studied as ligands in coordination spheres of metals by ESR spectroscopy. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and properties of 2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-nitroindazole

N-(2-Azido-5-nitrobenzylidene)-3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyaniline (3a) and N-(2-azido-5-nitrobenzilidene) aniline (3b), when heated in dimethylformamide yielded 2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-nitroindazole (4a) and 2-phenyl-5-nitroindazole (4b), respectively.

Design,Synthesis and Tumour-Selective Toxicity of Novel 1-[3-{3,5-Bis(benzylidene)-4-oxo-1-piperidino}-3-oxopropyl]-4-piperidone Oximes and Related Quaternary Ammonium Salts

A novel series of 1-[3-{3,5-bis(benzylidene)-4-oxo-1-piperidino}-3-oxopropyl]-4-piperidone oximes 3a–h and related quaternary ammonium salts 4a–h were prepared as candidate antineoplastic agents. Evaluation against neoplastic Ca9-22, HSC-2 and HSC-4 cells revealed the compounds in series 3 and 4 to be potent cytotoxins with submicromolar CC₅₀ values in virtually all cases. In contrast, the compounds were less cytocidal towards HGF, HPLF and HPC non-malignant cells revealing their tumour-selective toxicity. Quantitative structure–activity relationships revealed that, in general, both cytotoxic potency and selectivity index figures increased as the magnitude of the Hammett sigma values rose. In addition, 3a–h are cytotoxic towards a number of leukemic and colon cancer cells. 4b,c lowered the mitochondrial membrane potential in CEM cells, and 4d induced transient G2/M accumulation in Ca9-22 cells. Five compounds, namely 3c,d and 4c–e, were identified as lead molecules that have drug-like properties.

Formation of radical pairs in the photolysis of 2, 6-di(tert-butyl)-l,4-benzoquinonediazide in single crystals of 2,6-di(tert-butyl)-4-methylphenol

In the photolysis of single crystals of 2,6-di(tert-butyl)-4-methylphenol with the addition of 2,4-di(tert-butyl)-l,4-benzoquinonediazide it was found that they form carbenes and radical pairs with r₁=6.0 å, which are secondary products of the photolysis of the quinonediazide and which form as a result of transfer of a hydrogen atom from the phenol to the carbene. The high thermal stability of these radical pairs makes it possible to use them as two-spin probes. Also found were radical products that are annealed by light with wavelength greater than 560 nm and are hypothetically classified as ion-radical pairs with r_av=8.9 å.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 560–564, March, 1991.

Direct incorporation of carbon dioxide in poly(glycidyl methacrylate) and its application to the synthesis of hydrogel

This study is related to an integrated process for the application of CO₂ to poly(hydroxy urethane) and hydrogel viapoly(1,3-dioxolane-2-oxo-4-yl)methyl methacrylate [poly (DOMA)]. Quaternary ammonium salts showed good catalytic activity in the synthesis of poly(DOMA) by the direct incorporation of CO₂ into poly(glycidyl methacrylate) [poly(GMA)]. Poly[3-(N-butylcarbamoyloxy)-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate] [poly(CHPMA)] was successfully synthesized from poly(DOMA) and n-butylamine. Hydrogels were also prepared from the poly(CHPMA), using several diisocyanates as crosslinkers, and their swelling degrees were studied by measuring water content in the hydrogels.

The acid-catalyzed reaction of 4-(2-hydroperoxy-2,2-diarylethyl)-3,5-dimethylpyrazoles yielded 4-(aroylmethyl)-3,5-dimethylpyrazoles (15-55%) and 4-(2,2-diarylethenyl)-3,5-dimethylpyrazoles (9-29%).     

Phosphorus-containing derivatives of 2,6-di(tert-butyl)phenol: The antioxidant activity and properties of the corresponding phenoxyl radicals

The properties of phenoxyl radicals generated by the oxidation of mono-, di-, and triphosphorus derivatives of 2,6-di(tert-butyl)-4-methylphenol (ionol) were studied by ESR. These compounds exist as conformers that are interconvertible with a temperature-dependent rate. Numerical processing of the ESR spectra gave the thermodynamic and activation parameters that characterize the interconversion of the conformers. The antioxidant activities of the compounds were studied in a model oxidation of oleic acid and with biological objects. These phenols efficiently inhibited radical oxidation reactions.

X-ray structural investigation of the adduct of 1,3-di(tert-butyl)-2,4-di(tert-butylamido)diazadiphosphetidine with carbon disulfide and 2,5-diphenyl-3-cyclohexyl-4-oxo-4-cyclohexylamido-1,3,4-oxazaphospholidine

An x-ray structural investigation of the products of the reactions of 1,3-di(tert-butyl)-2,4-di(tert-butylamido)diazadiphosphetidine and 1,3-dicyclohexyl-2,4-di(cyclohexylamido)diazadiphosphetidine with carbon disulfide and benzaldehyde, respectively, has been carried out (Mo, 2006 and 1484 reflections, R=0.038 and 0.083). It has been shown that in the former reaction the four-membered P₂N₂ ring is maintained, and a new exocyclic bond appears between one of its P atoms and the carbon atom of carbon disulfide with the formation of a zwitterionic adduct with the formula C₁₅H₃₈N₄P₂·CS₂. In the latter case the P₂N₂ ring is opened, and a new five-membered heterocycle is closed with the formation of 2,5-diphenyl-3-cyclohexyl-4-oxo-4-cyclohexylamido-1,3,4-oxazaphospholidine C₂₆H₃₅O₂N₂P. The geometric parameters of both molecules investigated have been analyzed in detail.Institute of the Chemistry of Plant Substances, Academy of Sciences of the Uzbek SSR. A. N.

4-(3-Alkylureido)-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyls are rapidly oxidized by N₂O₄ or NOCl to 4-(3-alkylureido)-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-1-oxopiperidinium nitrates and chlorides, which are then nitrosated to 4-(3-alkyl-3-nitrosoureido)-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethyl-1-oxopiperidinium salts.
