Investigations in the imidazole series 97. Synthesis and some transformations of 5-nitro-5-hydroxyalkylamino- and 4-hydroxy-alkylamino-5-nitroimidazoles

A series of 1-alkyl(1,2-dialkyl)-substituted 4-nitro-5-hydroxyalkylamino- and 4-hydroxyalkylamino-5-nitro-imidazoles were obtained by the reaction of 1-alkyl(1,2-dialkyl)-substituted 4-nitro-5-chloro(bromo)imidazoles with amino alcohols. Their reactions with thionyl chloride and carboxylic acid halides and their catalytic hydrogenation were studied. For Communication 96, see [1].

Asymptotic solution of the anti-plane problem for a two-dimensional lattice

Propagation of unsteady waves under the effect of a step point load on a square lattice of springconnected masses is investigated. The problem is solved by two methods. Asymptotic solutions at large time intervals, which describe the behavior of long-wave perturbations, are derived analytically. The solution over the whole time interval for the waves of the entire spectral range is derived by the finite difference method. These solutions are compared, and their good agreement is shown.     

Humic-based bionanocomposites containing stable paramagnetic gold nanoparticles for prospective use in pharmaceuticals

Structural peculiarities and supramolecular organization of medicinally promising nanocomposites, synthesized from humic substances, which essentially differ depending on decomposition degree, have been studied using electron spin resonance, transmission electron, and confocal laser scanning microscopy techniques and some other modern physical–chemical methods. It is shown that stable zero-valent gold nanoparticle of about 10–17?nm in size are formed in a natural macromolecular matrix. The nanocomposites obtained turn out to be stable in aggregative state for a long time and preserve their properties that are extremely important for prospective medicinal substances.     

Vinylation of cellulose in superbase catalytic systems: towards new biodegradable polymer materials

Diverse celluloses including non-mercerized and mercerized ones have been successfully vinylated with acetylene in the superbase catalytic systems MOH/DMSO and MOH/THF (M = Na, K) at 85–140 °C. Depending on the reaction conditions, degree of substitution of the hydroxyl groups by highly reactive polymerazable vinyloxy groups ranges 0.11–1.22, the yields of vinylated celluloses (insoluble in water, but soluble in DMSO) being 41–89 %. Vinylated celluloses are easily decomposed under the action of white rot fungi: Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Trametes versicolor and Trametes hirsutus, and can constitute a basis for the preparation of biodegradable polymer materials (due to polymerization or polyaddition at the vinyloxy group).
