Extension de la méthode du «logarithme limite» [1] pour la détermination de la composition et de la constante de stabilité des complexes

A study of the conditions of applicability to weak complexes of the relation log x = v log V + log (β_v,cC^c) = f(logV), where V and C are variable and constant total concentrations of the constituants of the complexe, shows that for conditions other than C ? V, another function φ(log V) accounts better for the formation equilibrium of the complexe. From f(log V) and φ (log V) a relation t(log V) is derived whose simple analysis permits the determination of the composition and the stability constant of weak complexes. Applications are given to 1:1, 1:2, 2:2 composition.     

Application de la réaction de Wittig à la synthèse de dérivés de bromoénosuloses et d'esters bromoénuroniques. Note de laboratoire

Use of the Wittig reaction for the synthesis of derivatives of bromoenosuloses and bromoenuronic esters Treatment of 3-O-benzyl (or 3-O-methyl)-1, 2-O-isopropylidene-α-D -xylo-pentodialdo-1, 4-furanoses ( 2 or 1 ) with acetylbromomethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 3 ), benzoylbromomethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 4 ) or bromoethoxycarbonylmethylidenetriphenylphosphorane ( 5 ) gave in good to excellent yields the expected enose ( 6--11 ). In all cases but one ( 8 where some 10% of the E-isomer was formed) the reaction led to the exclusive formation of the Z-isomer whose configuration was established by NMR.     

Résonance Magnétique Nucléaire en phase nématique. Exploration de la barrière d'empêchement à la libre rotation de la monofluoroacétone

The NMR spectra of monochloro-, monobromo- and monofluoroacetone (CH₃? CO? CH₂X with X = Cl, Br, F) oriented in a nematic phase have been measured and the direct dipolar coupling constants determined. The barrier to internal rotation for the CH₂F group has been studied for fluorine compound using various hypotheses. The best agreement with IR data has been obtained using the potential equation V(θ) = Σ_n V_n × (1 – cos nθ)/2 and a Boltzmann distribution of the CH₂F group (V₁ = 250 ± 50 cal.mol^?1, V₂ = 1650 ± 100 cal.mol^?1, V₃ = ?1000 ± 100 cal.mol^?1).     

Diénamines hétérocycliques. III. Réexamen de la réaction de la base de Fischer avec le tétracyanoéthylène

Heterocyclic dienamines III. A re-examination of the reaction of Fischer's base on tetracyanoethylene Depending on the order of addition, Fischer's base 5 (1,3,3-trimethyl-2-methylidene-indoline) reacts 1:1 with tetracyanoethylene to give either the tricyanovinylation product 6 or the spiro compound 7 . A skeletal rearrangement of a zwitterionic intermediate can explain the formation of the spiro compound. The latter undergoes a thermal isomerization yielding by ring expansion the tetrahydroquinoléine 8 . On reaction with LiAlH₄ or CH₃ONa 7 and 8 lead both to triazatetracycles. All structures are assigned on the basis of spectral data.     

Synthèse et réactivité des bromhydrines dérivées de la chromone

Bromohydroxylated derivatives of chromone are obtained by addition of N-bromosuccinimide in dimethylsulfoxide. The configuration and conformation of these compounds are confirmed by NMR spectroscopy. Alkaline alcoholates react with these bromohydrins to give a ring contraction into 2-formyl-3-benzofuranone.     

Mécanisme de solvolyse des cis- et trans-(p-toluènesulfonates) d'aryl-2-cyclopentyle I. Etude de la première étape de la solvolyse: effets isotopiques de l' atone de deutérium en position 2, effets de sel basique et effet spécial de sel

Solvolysis Mechanism of cis - and trans-2-Arylcylopentyl p-Toluenesulfonates. The Step: 1-Deuterium Isotope Effects, Basic Salt Effects, and Special Salt Effect We have studied the first step of the solvolysis of cis and trans-2-arylcyclopentyl p-toluenesulfonates in HCOOH, AcOH, and EtOh. All substrates show a high kinetic 1-deuterium isotope effect (k_H/k_D(1) >1.15). This fact indicates that first step leads to classical intimate ion-pair Which dissociates to a solvet-separated ion-pair, without participation either of solvent, the 2-aryl group, or a H-atom at C(2). The slight influence of added basic ions on reaction rate allows us to exclude any direct solvent attack on the covalent substrate even in the most favorable case, i.e. ethanolysis of 2-(p-nitrophenyl)cylopentyl-p-toluenesulfonates. Furthermore, solvent-separated ion pair formation is indicated by the special salt effect induced by LiClO₄.     

Sur le mécanisme de la réaction de meth-cohn-tarnowski de préparation des thiocoumarines

Reaction of 2-t-butylthiobenzaldehyde with N-(2-dialkylaminoethyl)-cyanacetamides followed by heating of the resulting 3-(2-t-butylthiophenyl)-2-cyanoacrylamides in polyphosphoric acid leads to the formation of 3-carboxamido-2-imino-2H-benzo[b][l]thiopyrann intermediates which afford thiocoumarins on hydrolysis. The authors postulate the intermediate formation of a thiophenate ion by an electronic mechanism involving six centers.     

Etude par RMN du Proton de la Stéréochimie de Composés Ethyléniques Trisubstitués. Calcul Empirique et Calcul par Incréments de la Constante d'Ecran

The Pascual and Tobey approaches for evaluating the chemical shift of an olefinic proton have been tentatively applied to the case of substituents which often cause difficulties in signal assignment. The empirically calculated values of the differential shielding between olefinic protons in both Z and E configurations are compared to the experimental values of the chemical shifts in a series of 2-arylpropene nitriles. The Z configuration is proved to correspond to the less shielded nucleus and the observed solvent effects are consistent with this assignment. When the Z configuration predominates its nature has been unambiguously established by studying also the corresponding E isomer of which a very small quantity could be isolated. The results offer a good way for the computation of new substituent additive parameters (NH₂, OH, ONa).     

Synthèse énantiospécifique de la (+)-(R)-éthyl-6-dihydro-2,3-méthyl-2-4H-pyranone-4, phéromone de la mite Hepialus hecta L

Etudes d'Hétérocycles Pentagonaux Polyhétéroatomiques par RMN du 13C. Effets de Substituant,de la Benzocondensation et Etude de la Tautomèrie Prototropique en Série Benzothiazolique

The ¹³C NMR spectra of 43 benzothiazoles have been recorded in DMSO-d₆. All carbon atoms have been attributed in an unambigous way owing to substituent effects in position 4, 5, 6 or 7. We discuss variations of chemical shifts as a function of the nature of the substituent in position 2 (equation of type: Δδ = aF+bR+cQ+d′), annelation in the benzoheterocyclic series, and prototropic tautomerism in the benzothiazolic series (in the case of the substituent in the 2-position being an OH, SH or NHR group).     

Etude de la décomposition thermique d'azido dithiényl-1,2 éthènes et éthanes

Thermal decomposition of azido-1,2-dithienylethenes 1 gave thienyl 4H-thieno[3,2-b]pyrroles 3 . For the 3,4-disubstituted thiophene derivatives 2 , the same reaction led to the amino-1,2-dithienylethenes 4 . In contrast, only azido-1,2-dithienylethanes 7 led to thienyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-thieno[3,4-b]pyrroles 8 . The structure of the obtained derivatives was established on the basis of ¹H nmr, ir, and mass spectral data.     

Equation matricielle de Hartree-Fock permettant de déterminer la nième harmonique

The system of time-dependent Hartree-Fock equations allowing the calculation the of nth harmonic generation is established by using the same method used in a former paper in the same conditions. These equations are still subjected to orthonormalization conditions. Then by using a recurrence method, we express these equations in matrix form, as well as the orthonormalization conditions; and, as in the former paper, we then replace the solution of the matrix equation subjected to a constraint by that of a free equation. Finally the elimination of the spin variables allows a further simplification. So we obtain an equation allowing the calculation of the nth harmonic generation.     

Application de la réduction polarographique des sulfones aromatiques et des p-toluènesulfonates d'alkyle à des problèmes de structure

The polarographic reduction potentials of a series of aromatic sulfones and homologous alkyl tosylates in anhydrous NN-dimethylformamide have been measured. The relation between reduction potential and structure is discussed on the basis of HMO. calculations, under the assumption that compounds PhSO₂X (X = NR¹R², OR, halogens) are sulfone derivatives A critical approach is made of the use of the Taft-Hammett relation for correlating half-wave potentials. The different reduction mechanisms at the electrode observed in aprotic and protic media for the above compounds are satisfactorily accounted for by simple MO. calculations.     

Isolement et identification de la C-galactosyl-8 apigénine dans les tiges feuillées de Carlina acanthifolia

Isolation and Identification of 8-C-Galactosylapigenin from Leaves of Carlina acanthifolia 8-C-galactosylapigenin was isolated from the leaves of Carlina acanthifolia (Compositae). This identification represents only the third report of a mono C-galactosylapigenin in plants and the first report in the Compositae.     

Synthèse partielle et propriétés oncostatiques des pseudo-tubulosines,analogues de l'émétine et de la tubulosine

Partial Synthesis and Oncostatic Properties of Pseudotubulosines, Analogues of Emetine and Tubulosine Pseudotubulosines, structural analogues of emetine and tubulosine, have been synthesized by either Pictet-Spengler or Bischler-Napieralski condensation from dihydrocorynantheal or corynantheidal.

Synthèse de céphalosporine-lactones

Condensation of azetidinones 2a and 2b with mercaptan 3 gave respectively compound 10 or a 1:1 mixture of 17 and 17 ′. Bromination of 10 , afforded cis and trans-bromohydrins 13a and of 17 and 17 ′ cis and trans-bromohydrins 18a . Acetylation and reduction with zinc and acetic acid of these bromohydrins gave cephems 4a or 4b and 4b ′ respectively.     

Etude par Spectrométrie de Masse de la Fragmentation d'une Série de Diols Aliphatiques

The mass spectrometric fragmentation of a series of diols having the general formula HO? (CH₂)_n? OH with n = 2-11 has been studied. Extensive labelling of n-butane-1,4 diol and n-hexane-1,6 diol with deuterium allows fragmentation modes to be proposed. The labelling reveals that intramolecular exchange of H atoms often precedes the fragmentation and becomes more important when the length of the chain increases.     

Sur la synthèse de chloro-3 indolinones a partir de β-nitrostyrènes diversement substitués

When treated with acetyl chloride and ferric chloride in methylene chloride, at 0°, monosubstituted β-nitrostyrene derivatives such as 2,3 or 4-methyl, -chloro or -fluoro and 3-nitro-β-nitrostyrenes cyclize into the new corresponding 3-chloro-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one. Reaction with other metal chlorides such as aluminum chloride and titanium tetrachloride does not lead to these heterocyclic derivatives but only produces N-acetyl-N-hydroxy-α-chlorobenzeneacetamides and/or N-(acetyloxy)-α-chlorobenzeneethanimidoyl chlorides.     

Synthèse de sucres aminès ramifiés II. Synthèse et réactions de spiro-aziridines. Communication préliminaire

Treatment of 3-C-cyano-1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-3-O-(toluene-p-sulfonyl)-α-D -allofurannose with AlLiH₄ or RMgX yields spiro-aziridines with two identical substituents on C(3′) (? H, ? CH₃, ? C₂H₅). Reactions of these products and their derivatives are briefly described. If the C(3′) substituents are protons, the aziridine ring is easily opened. In acidic media (HCl), an amino-sugar containing the branched chain ? CH₂Cl is produced; with hydrogenation, a ? CH₃ branched chain results. If the C(3′) substituents are methyl groups, the aziridine ring cannot be opened neither with HCl nor with hydrogen. The acetylated derivative of this latter compound rearranges to the corresponding allylamide with HCl. For both types of spiro-aziridine, the nitrous deamination leads to the corresponding alkene.
