Effet sterique sur les vitesses de transfert protonique: cyclohexanols substitues dans le dimethylsulfoxyde

Steric effects on proton transfer from, and to, hydroxylic oxygen have been studied in a series of seventeen α-methyl and a-benzyl cyclohexanols in anhydrous DMSO, under both acid and base catalysed conditions, using dynamic MNR techniques. The protonation rate constants (k₁ ? 10⁶ M^-1 s^-1 at 25°C) obey a Taft-Ingold relationship, containing only a steric contribution E_s = E_s^OH + E_s^α, where: E_s^OH = 0 or 0.15 for an axial or equatorial hydroxyl respectively and E_s^α = ?0.070 (or ?0.115) for substituting an α-hydrogen by a methyl (or benzyl) group. An equatorial hydroxylic function is therefore 40% more reactive than its axial homologue. These kinetic data are fairly consistent with structural information resulting from IR spectroscopy (v_co and v_OH vibrations) and from NMR (hydroxylic chemical shifts and coupling constants).     

13C-NMR. Spectroscopy of Naturally Occuring Substances. XLII. Conformational analysis of quebrachamine-like indole alkaloids and related substances

The ¹³C shifts of 16α- and 16β-substituted derivatives of quebrachamine, 14,15-dehydroquebrachamine, cleavamine, 15,20α-dihydrocleavamine and 15,20β-dihydrocleavamine are determined and correlated with possible conformations of these tetracycles. The method of analysis of the C(16) configuration of these compounds, which emanated from this study, is used for the determination of the configuration of the site of coupling of vindoline and cleavamine β-chloroindolenine.     

Thermodynamic properties of alkali halides. IV. Apparent molal volumes,expansibilities, compressibilities,and heat capacities in urea-water mixtures

The apparent molal volume φ_v, expansibility φ_E, compressibility φ_K, and heat capacity φ_c of NaCl were measured in urea-water mixtures, as a function of salt (<1.5m) and urea (<13m) concentrations at 25°C. At a fixed urea concentration, the transfer functions from H₂O to 3m urea are linear functions of the NaCl aquamolality. At a fixed salt aquamolality, (0.1m), the sign of the transfer functions is in the direction of a decrease in the structure-breaking effect, and the absolute values of the transfer functions tend to level off at high urea concentrations (13m). The functions φ_v, φ_E, φ_K, φ_c, and (?φ_v/?T)_p were measured for the sodium halides and alkali, bromides (chlorides in the case of φ_K) at a fixed salt aquamolality of 0.1m and fixed urea molality of 3m. The corresponding transfer functions from H₂O to 3m urea are opposite those from H₂O to D₂O and similarly are relatively independent of ionic size. This suggests that urea, shows no specific interaction affinity for ions and that the overall number of water molecules influenced by the ions is relatively constant for all alkali halides. The lithium halides are an exception in that Li⁺ seems to have hardly any structure-breaking effect.     

Reductive cleavage of axially disymmetric tertiary amines and quaternary ammonium salts by lithium aluminium hydride. Synthesis of new 1,1′-binaphthyl substituted amines

Axially disymmetric tertiary amines or quaternary ammonium salts $\text{A}$ are synthesized by double alkylation of primary or secondary amines with racemic or optically pure 2,2′-bis (bromomethyl)-1,1′-binaphthyl. Their reductive cleavage by lithium aluminium hydride in refluxing THF leads to chiral secondary or tertiary amines $\text{B}$, substituted by a binaphthyl unit, with high yields and absence of racemization.     

Benzthiazolderivate, 5. Mitt.: Dequartärisierung und nucleophile Substitution von Benzthiazoliumsalzen

Zusammenfassung Benzthiazoliumsalze (I) reagieren, wie an 20 Beispielen gezeigt wird, mit nucleophilen Partnern unter gleichzeitiger Labilisierung des Oniumsystems zu 2-substituierten 2,3-Dihydro-benzthiazolen (dequartärisierende nucleophile Substitution). Der Reaktionsverlauf wird von der Art der nucleophilen Komponente bestimmt: Freie Amino-(Hydrazino)-Verbindungen und I lassen sich im Molverhältnis 21, die Alkalisalze von Aminocarbonsäuren und-sulfosäuren im Molverhältnis 11 umsetzen. Verbindungen mit reaktiver Methylengruppierung reagieren glatt mit der äquivalenten Menge I, wenn in Gegenwart einer Base gearbeitet wird. Die verwendeten I-Verbindungen sind: 2-Äthoxy-3-methyl-benzthiazolium-tetrafluoroborat (VII) und 2-Methylmercapto-3-methylbenzthiazolium-methylsulfat (VIII).     

Non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis of the positional isomers of a sulfated monosaccharide

A non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) method coupled to indirect absorbance detection has been developed for the separation of the three positional isomers of monosulfated fucose. The optimized electrolyte was composed of 12 mM ethanolamine, 2 mM trimesic acid buffer in a methanol-ethanol (1:1, v/v) mixture. As the retained electrolyte entails no separating agent other than the pH buffer, the NACE separation of the positional isomers has been ascribed mainly to selective ion-pairing with the electrolyte counter-ion and the possibility of a selective solvation effect in the alcohol mixture. In the absence of pure isomeric standards, peak identification was completed by MS and NMR spectroscopy and selective enzymatic desulfation. This method should be of interest for the structure elucidation of monosulfated fucose-based polysaccharides and for the screening of sulfoesterase of unknown activity.
