Polyselenide mit langkettigen Tetraalkylammoniumionen Die Kristallstruktur von Trimethyl-tetradecyl-ammonium-hexaselenid

Polyselenides with Long-chain Tetraalkylammonium Ions. Crystal Structure of Trimethyltetradecyl-ammonium Hexaselenide Na₂Se₂ and Na₂Se react with various tetraalkylammonium halides in ethanol and in presence of grey selenium and catalytic quantities of iodine forming different polyselenides Se_n^2? (n = 3, 5—9). In the solutions equilibria of polyselenides seem to occur; cooling of saturated solutions causes crystallization of polyselenides with a composition depending on the cation. Tri- and pentaselenide are dark green. The higher members form black crystals, all compounds are sensitive to oxygen. The i.r. spectra are reported. [(CH₃)₃N(CH₂)₁₃CH₃]₂Se₆ is characterized by a crystallographic structure determination with X-ray data: space group P2₁2₁2, Z = 4, a = 5043, b = 734.2, c = 600.3 pm (986 observed independent reflexions. R = 0.072). The compound consists of trimethyl tetradecylammonium ions and angular Se₆^2? chains of symmetry C₂ with Se? Se bond lengths of 227 and 235 pm.     

Organic Synthesis and Technetium-99m Labeling of Some Amino-Phenol Ligands

We reported the synthesis and labeling of one tetradentate and two pentadentate amino-phenol ligands with technetium-99m by the direct pertechnetate addition and by ligand exchange methods. Labeling by direct pertechnetate addition was attended by adding pertechnetate eluate to the ethanolic solution of the amino-phenol ligands at pH 9. Stannous chloride dihydrate was used as reducing agent. Exchange studies were carried out via the use of the following ^99mTc-chelates: ^99mTc-DTPA, ^99mTc-gluconate, ^99mTc-tartrate and ^99mTc-citrate complexes. Ligand exchange method was achieved by incubation the ligand solutions with ^99mTc-co-ligands complexes in 0.05M bicarbonate buffer pH 9. At this pH value the ^99mTc-co-ligands dissociated and the more stable new ^99mTc-ligands were formed with high radiochemical yield 95%. The radiochemical yield of ^99mTc-labeled amino-phenol ligands were estimated by solvent extraction, electrophoresis and HPLC methods. The produced technetium-99m amino-phenol complexes were neutral, lipophilic and stable during the period of 24 hours.     

Optically detected zero field magnetic resonance in the lowest triplet nπ* state of p-benzoquinone

Optically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) techniques are used to determine the orbital assignment of the phosphorescent triplet state of p-bezonquinone in the condensed phase. The principal spin—orbit coupling routes are discussed in terms of the observed spin—vibronic activity.     

Synthesis of Some Novel 2‐Anilinothiophene, 2,3′‐Bithienyl and Thienylthiopyridine Derivatives Resistance to Penicillium Digitatum Effect the Fruit

Reaction of benzotriazol‐1‐yl acetone 1 with phenyl isothiocyanate followed with α‐chloroacetone or ethyl‐α‐chloroacetate afforded 2‐anilinothiophenes 3 or 4 , respectively. Treatment of 3 with malononitrile at different reaction conditions afforded 6 or 7 . Reaction of 1 with CS₂ in DMF and phenacylbromide afforded S‐alkylated thiophene 10 . Reactions of the latter compound with different active methylene nitriles afforded thienylthiopyridine derivatives 14 and 15 . Condensation of 10 with hydrazine hydrate afforded hydrazon derivative 16 . Reaction of thiophene 17 with formamide in DMF afforded 19 which converted to N‐thienylpyrimidine 20 when treated with malononitrile. The structure of the newly synthesized compounds has been established on the basis of their analytical and spectral data. The compounds were also investigated for antibacterial and antifungal activities.     

Reactions with heterocyclic amidines. VI. Synthesis and chemistry of pyrazol-5-yl,and 1,2,4-triazol-5-ylhydrazonyl chlorides

The 4-bromo-3-phenylpyrazol-5-ylhydrazonyl chlorides (Ia,b) and 1,2,4-triazol-5-ylhydrazonyl chlorides (IIa,b) were prepared via coupling of diazotized 4-bromo-3-phenyl-5-aminopyrazole (III) and 5-amino-1,2,4-triazole (IV) with α-chloro derivatives of acetylacetone and of ethyl aceto-acetate. Compounds Ia and IIa,b were utilised for the synthesis of several new heterocyclic derivatives.     

Nickel(II) complexes of 3-acetyl-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-triazole hydrazones

3-Acetyl-1,2,4-triazole hydrazones (3b,c) and methylhydrazone (4d) were prepared by reacting triazoles (1b–d) with an excess of hydrazines at room temperature. Square planar nickel(II) complexes (8b,c) of (3b,c) were obtained from their reaction with Ni(OAc)₂ in a 2:1 mol ratio in EtOH at room temperature. The spectral data suggest structures (8b,c) for the obtained complexes, which result from ring opening of the triazole ring followed by recyclization to give the 5-arylhydrazono-2,3-dihydro-4H-1,2,4-triazine ligand (7b,c). The reaction of triazole methylhydrazone (4d) with Ni(OAc)₂ in EtOH resulted, however, in the formation of the starting triazole (1d). All new compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, i.r., ¹H-n.m.r. ¹³C-n.m.r. and hrms.     

Synergistic effects of ion-pairing in the enantiomeric separation of basic compounds with cyclodextrin derivatives in nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis

The enantiomeric separation of various kinds of basic pharmaceuticals has been investigated in nonaqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE) systems using an ion-pairing reagent in combination with cyclodextrins (CDs). The simultaneous addition to the methanolic background electrolyte (BGE) of (+)-S-camphorsulfonate or alkanesulfonates and an anionic beta-cyclodextrin derivative, heptakis(2,3-dimethyl-6-sulfato)-beta-cyclodextrin (HDMS-beta-CD), led to partial or complete enantioresolution in most cases. In the absence of ion-pairing reagent, the enantiomeric resolution obtained with this CD derivative was most often completely lost or strongly reduced, indicating the important role of ion-pairing in the chiral recognition mechanism in these NACE systems. The influence of the nature and concentration of the counterion and the anionic CD derivative on the enantioseparation of basic compounds was studied. Synergistic effects between these two kinds of charged additives were clearly observed.     

Efficient approaches toward the solid-phase synthesis of new heterocyclic azoniaspiro ring systems: synthesis of tri- and tetrasubstituted 10-oxo- 3,9-diaza-6-azoniaspiro[5.5]undecanes

[Reaction: see text]. An efficient approach for the parallel solid-phase synthesis of novel heterocyclic azoniaspiro ring systems is described. The target compounds, the 1,8,9-trisubstituted 10-oxo-3,9-diaza-6-azoniaspiro[5.5]undecanes, were obtained starting from resin-bound reduced dipeptides. The azoniaspiro cation was formed by intramolecular attack of a tertiary nitrogen on pendent alpha-bromocarbonyl. N-3 acylated and N-3 alkylamino carbonyl derivatives of the 1,8,9-trisubstituted 10-oxo-3,9-diaza-6-azoniaspiro[5.5]undecanes were obtained following in solution treatment of the N-3 azoniaspiro derivatives with different carboxylic acids and isocyanates.     

Effect of anion concentration on the stability of the uranyl-ascorbate complex

The effect of anion concentration and the dependence of uranyl ascorbate on the nature of anion present is systematically studied for nine different anions over the concentration range (0.2–2.0) × 10⁻² M. These anions, commonly encountered in pharmaceutical preparations with ascorbic acid (vitamin C) are nitrate, sulfate, chloride, bromide, fluoride, phosphate, citrate, oxalate, and tartrate. Based on the absorbance data, and on the value of the replacement constant K calculated, the studied anions may be arranged according to their complexing power on uranium as follows: citrate > tartrate > phosphate > oxalate > fluoride > sulfate > nitrate > chloride > bromide.This order is substantiated by the calculated values of the side reaction coefficients α_M of the uranyl ligand complex or the conditional stability constant of uranyl-ascorbate calculated at different ligand concentrations.     

Synthesis of Potential Antiviral Agents for SARS-CoV-2 Using Molecular Hybridization Approach

We synthesized a set of small molecules using a molecular hybridization approach with good yields. The antiviral properties of the synthesized conjugates against the SAR-CoV-2 virus were investigated and their cytotoxicity was also determined. Among all the synthesized conjugates, compound 9f showed potential against SARS-CoV-2 and low cytotoxicity. The conjugates’ selectivity indexes (SIs) were determined to correlate the antiviral properties and cytotoxicity. The observed biological data were further validated using computational studies.
