Neue Molekülverbindungen des β-1,2,3,4,5,6-Hexachlorcyclohexans

Eight new molecular compounds between -1,2,3,4,5,6-hexachlorocyclohexane (-HCH) and some heterocyclic salts (hydrochlorides of - and -picoline, 2,4,6-collidine, ,-bipyridine, isoquinoline, acridine, 9-phenylacridine, and 2,4,6-triphenylpyrylium perchlorate), with the molecular ratio 12, were synthesised and described by means of spectroscopic (IR, UV, NMR) and X-ray-diffraction methods. Some of the molecular compounds may be used for quantitative separation of the heterocyclic salts from complex mixtures.

Complex polarizability as used to analyze dielectric relaxation measurements

The effect of representing dielectric properties in terms of the complex polarizability ^c = – i is examined. Loss curves ( and tan ) are shifted towards higher frequencies, revealing the existence of new relaxations and allowing the clarifications of ones already known. We have calculated the shift ratios (at maximum or tan )/ (at maximum or tan ) from the more conventional empirical equations representing the dielectric behavior. Some examples are given.     

A further study of the substrate specificity in the reduction of 20-oxosteroids with a culture ofActinomyces roseochromogenus

Conclusions A culture ofActinomyces roseochromogenus ATCC 3347 reduces 17-hydroxy- and 16, 17-epoxy-20-oxopregnenes to the corresponding 20-alcohols, but is incapable of reducing 17-acetoxy-, 17-methyl-, and 16-methylprogesterones or 17-unsubstituted 20-oxopregnenes. The results obtained show that the presence of the side chain in a conformation favorable for the formation of 20-alcohols in the reduction of 20-oxosteroids with complex metal hydrides is in itself insufficient for the reduction of the 20-oxosteroids by a culture ofActinomyces roseochromogenus, which also reduces the 20-oxo group of 17-pregnenes.Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, Vol. 6, No. 1, pp. 38–47, 1970

GC-MS characterization and quantification of sterols and cholesterol oxidation products

Summary A GC-MS method has been studied for characterization and quantification of phytosterols, cholesterol and cholesterol oxidation products. Baseline separations have been achieved between cholesterol, cholesterol 5-6-epoxide, 5-cholestene-3-ol-7one (7-keto-cholesterol), cholestene-3-5-6-triol, 5-cholestene-3-25-diol (25-hydroxycholesterol), 5-cholestene-3-20-diol (20-hydroxycholesterol), 5-cholestene-3-7-diol (7-hydroxycholesterol) and 5-cholestene-3-19-diol (19-hydroxycholesterol) as well as between -cholestane, cholesterol, stigmasterol, campesterol and -sitosterol. Excellent linearity of response has been obtained permitting reliable quantification. The characterization of each derivatized sterol has been performed by mass-spectrometry. The results confirm the utility of combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in the analysis and characterization of sterols and cholesterol oxidation products.

Extraction of Polonium from Aqueous α-Hydroxyisobutyric Acid Solutions Using Dioctyl Sulphide, Cyanex 272, Cyanex 301 or Cyanex 302 in Toluene

A study of the extraction of polonium from aqueous solutions containing -hydroxyisobutyric acid (-HIBA) was performed with four different extractants, di-n-octyl sulphide (DOS), Cyanex 272, Cyanex 301 and Cyanex 302, dissolved in toluene. The extracted complex for DOS at low -HIBA concentrations is most likely PoO(-HIB)₂·2DOS, while at higher -HIBA concentrations there seems to be a solvating effect implicating an extracted complex of the type PoO(-HIB)₂(-HIBA)₂·2DOS. For the extraction of polonium with Cyanex 272 the results are inconclusive. The extracted complex is either PoOA₂ or PoO(-HIB)₂·2HA. For extraction with Cyanex 301 or Cyanex 302 the major extracted species does not contain any -HIBA molecules. The neutral species in both cases is PoOA₂, extracted at low extractant concentrations, while at higher extractant concentrations a complex of the type PoOA₂·xHA is extracted. The extraction of polonium increases in the order Cyanex 272 < DOS < Cyanex 302 < Cyanex 301.

1,3-Skeletal rearrangement of N-substituted ketimines via a possible intimate ion pair is discussed. (CH₃)₃SiCH=C=O (1) reacts with N-(aziridinyl)-triphenylphosphinimine (2) to give N-(1-aziridinyl)-2-trimethylsilylketen-1-imines (3). The compounds3 b, c are thermally labile and do not undergo 1,3-rearrangement but a retro-ene type reaction to yield (CH₃)₃SiCH₂CN and 2,3-diphenyl-2H-azirine (4). Diphenylketene (5) reacts with N-(N, N-dialkylamino)-triphenylphosphinimines (6) to yield -(N-disubstituted-amino)-nitriles (7). , -Dimethyl--(triphenylphosphinimino)-acetonitrile (9) reacts with (5) at room temperature to form , -dimethyl--(2, 2-diphenylketen-1-imino)-acetonitrile (10) which rearranges at 80° to dimethyl diphenylsuccinonitrile (11). The reaction of5 with 7-(triphenylphosphinimino)-7-azabicyclo[4.1.0]heptane (12) gives tetraphenylsuccinonitrile13 and 7-(7-azabicyclo[4.1.0]heptane)-, -diphenylacetonitrile (14). Finally the synthesis of N-acylketenimines (16) from (5) and acyltriphenylphosphinimines (15) is reported.

Ultrasonic extraction followed by sulfuric acid silica gel cleanup for the determination of α-hexachlorocyclohexane enantiomers in biota samples

Interest in the analysis of -hexachlorocyclohexane (-HCH) enantiomers as an alternative or complementary approach to elucidating isomer ratios of /-HCH has grown in recent years because it can provide useful information to evaluate the influence of different degradation and transformation processes. In this paper, a simple and rapid method for the determination of -HCH enantiomers in biota samples is described. The method developed consists of ultrasonic extraction, sulfuric acid silica gel cleanup, solid-phase extraction (SPE) column fractionation, and final determination with chiral high-resolution gas chromatography. Ultrasonic extraction greatly shortens the extraction process time, and the sulfuric acid silica gel and SPE cleanup perfectly remove lipids and other interference compounds in the lipid-rich samples. The method is found to be simple, less time-consuming, and easy to operate, thus providing a useful alternative method to assess the enantioselective breakdown of -HCH in biota system.     

Quinazolines X. Synthesis of 6,6'-methylenebisdeoxyvasicinone and its homologs

Summary 6,6-Methylenebisdeoxyvacisinone and its homologs have been synthesized by the reaction of methylenebisanthranilic acid with lactams (-butyrolactam, -valerolactam, -caprolactam, and -chloro- and ,-dichloro--caprolactams). The condensation of anthranilic acid and its derivatives (4-nitro-, 5-bromo-, 5-iodo-, and 5-nitroanthranilic acids) with ,-dichloro--caprolactam has given seven-membered analogs of deoxyvasicinone containing two chlorine atoms in the polymethylene ring.Institute of the Chemistry of Plant Substances, Academy of Sciences of the Uzbek SSR, Tashkent.

The structures of the products of the polyformylation of Cu, Ni, and Co complexes of etioporphyrin (EP) as monoformyl-, ,-diformyl-, ,-diformyl-, and ,,-triformyl-EP were established by electronic, IR, and PMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. -Formyl--(N-methylformaldimine)-EP and porphyrins that contain a cyclopentane ring can be formed by alkaline treatment of the Vilsmeier formylation products.See [1] for communication 8.See [2] for our preliminary communication.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 767–775, June, 1979.     

Crystallochemical Aspect of Phase Formation in the γ-FeOOH-H2O-NaOH System

Phase transition of metastable -FeOOH into -FeOOH and its chemical transformation into -Fe₂O₃ upon hydrothermal treatment in 0-5 M NaOH solutions at 100-230°C were studied. The regions of formation of the above phases were specified. The probable composition of the crystallizing complexes formed in the solutions and the reactions occurring at their incorporation into various atomically smooth faces of -FeOOH and -Fe₂O₃ were considered.

Conclusions The addition of thioacetic acid to the ⁵ bonds of 16- and 16-mercapto-3-hydroxypregn-5-en-20-one 3,16-diacetates (II) and (III) under radical conditions gives not only trans-diaxial addition products-6,16- and 6,16-dimercapto-3-hydroxy-5o;-pregnan-20-one 3,6,16-triacetates (IV) and (V) -but also cis-addition products-6,16- and 6,16-dimercapto-3-hydroxy-5-pregnan-20-one 3,6,16-triacetates (VI) and (VII).Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 405–411, February, 1969.     

Unusual transformation of trimethylsilyloxyisoxazolidines initiated by the fluoride ion

It was found that opening of the isoxazolidine ring of 6a-isopropenyl-1/-trimethylsilyloxy-3, 3a,4,5,6,6a-hexahydro-(1H)-cyclopent[c]isoxazoles by the F^– ion initially gives an intermediate, a tertiary nitrosocompound detected by UV and NMR spectroscopy. Its transformation, finally, into ,-unsaturated aldoximes probably involves an unprecedented allylic migration of the nitroso group.Deceased.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Alpha-counting with a solid scintillator

Alpha-counting with a commercial solid scintillator, LumaCap, in a liquid scintillation analyzer, has been studied. It has been found that LumaCap produces much more fluorescence than normal cocktail does, upon the reaction of -particles. Pulse height and pulse shape analysis have been applied for - and -discrimination successfully. This solid scintillator provides a useful means for -counting in normal liquid scintillation instruments.

Triterpene Glycosides of Astragalus and Their Genins. LXI. Occurrence of Cycloartane 6-O-Monodesmosides

Cyclosiversigenin 6-O--L-rhamnopyranoside and 6-O--D-glucopyranoside were isolated fromAstragalus coluteocarpusBoiss. (Leguminosae) andAstragalus dissectusB. Fedtsch. et N. Ivanova, respectively. Cyclosiversigenin 5-O--L-rhamnopyranoside was shown to be an artifact forAstragalus coluteocarpus.Thus, the cyclosiversigenin 6-O--D-glucopyranoside that was isolated from certainAstragalusspecies is hypothesized also to be an artifact. Glycosylation of the 6 -hydroxyl group of cycloartanes by D-glucose and D-xylose, in contrast with other substituents, does not change the low-field position of the PMR signal of the 4-CH ₃ group (1.65 2.01 ppm) that is caused by the influence of deuteropyridine directly on the 6 -hydroxyl. Obviously one of the hydroxyls of the -D-glucopyranoside or -D-xylopyranoside residues has the same effect in this instance.     

Steroid compounds of marine sponges. VII. Preparation of derivatives of sokotrasterol and halistanol sulfates and structure-activity interrelationships among these compounds

Five new sulfated derivatives of sokotrasterol and halistanol have been obtained: 24-nor-5-cholane-2,3,6,23-tetraol 2,3,6-tri(sodium sulfate); 24-nor-5-cholane-2,3,6,23-tetraol 2,3,6-tri(sodium sulfate) 23-palmitate; 24,25-dimethyl-5-cholestane-2,3,6-triol 3-(sodium sulfate); 24,25-dimethyl-5-cholestane-2,3,6-triol 6-(sodium sulfate); and 24,25-dimethyl-5-cholestane-2,3,6-triol 2,6-di(sodium sulfate).
