Quaternization of tetrazoles under high pressure and establishment of the structures of quaternary tetrazolium salts by 13C NMR spectroscopy

The quaternization of 1- and 2-acetonyl-5-R-tetrazoles, as well as dimethyltetrazole, was accomplished under high pressure conditions (5000–14,000 kgf/cm²) by means of bromoacetone and methyl iodide and at atmospheric pressure and room temperature under the influence of methyl fluorosulfate. The structure of the salts were ascertained by ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, and the principles of the change in the chemical shifts and the spin-spin coupling constants during quaternization and protonation of the tetrazoles were studied.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1118–1124, August, 1982.

Hydropolymerization of ethylene,initiated by carbon monoxide,on Co-zeolite catalysts at temperatures below 100°C

Conclusions Both the extent of C₂H₄ hydropolymerization, initiated by 0.01% CO, on Co zeolites at a temperature below 100°C, and the initiating effect increase symbatically with increase in the ratio of SiO₂/Al₂O₃ in the zeolite in the investigated limits (from 2 to 10).Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 4, pp. 894–896, April, 1974.     

Synthetic analogs of active centers of iron-sulfur proteins: Reactions with phosphates

The interaction of synthetic analogs of active centers of iron-sulfur proteins with phosphates of different structures was studied. It was shown that the process involves ligand exchange and obeys the first-order reaction kinetic equation. The most rapid exchange occurred with the most acidic compound diphenyl phosphate.A. E.

Reactions of 10-telluroniaanthracene perchlorates with nucleophiles

10-Telluroniaanthracene perchlorates react with nucleophiles (X^–=halide, hydroxide, methoxide) via intermediate free telluroxanthyl radicals. With 9-aryl-10-telluroniaanthracene perchlorates, high yields of 9-aryl-9-X-telluroxanthenes are obtained, but with 10-telluroniaanthracene the principal product is 9,9-bis(telluroxathenyl) as a result of rapid competitive dimerization.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 691–695, May, 1989.     

Mass-spectrometric behavior of some cyano-substituted 4-(β-chloroethylmercapto)-sym-triazines

Intense [M-Cl]⁺ and [M-CT₂=CCNCl]⁺ ion peaks are characteristic for the mass spectra of 4-(-chloro--cyanoethylmercapto)-sym-triazines. The introduction of monoalkylamino groups into the 2 and 6 positions of the heteroring does not lead to the development of [M-HCl]⁺ ion peaks in the mass spectra or to a change in the characteristic fragmentation pathways.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1268–1270, September, 1982.
