Bildung siliciumorganischer Verbindungen. LI. Reaktionen verschieden chlorierter 1,3,5-Trisila-cyclohexane mit CHMgCl und ihre 29SiNMR-Spektren

Formation of Organosilicon Compounds. LI. Reactions of Various Chlorinated 1.3.5-Trisilacyclohexanes with CH₃MgCl and their ²⁹SiNMR Spectra The reaction of (a) with meMgCl starts with the formation of a Grignard compound of (a) and forms (c) via (b). The reaction sequence will be described. The ring contraction of the six-membered ringsystem is also observed with compound (d) leading to (e), whereas (f) reacts to (g), the ringsystem being maintained. No ring-contraction is observed when investigating the reactions of the derivatives containing Si? H- and C? Cl-groups. Compound (i) gives rise to (j), (k) to (l) whereas cleavage occurs with (m) and (n) does not react under the conditions applied. According to the PMR and ²⁹SiNMR spectra, the polarity of the Si? Cl-bond decreases in the compounds containing Si? Cl and CCl-groups by increasing the number of CCl₂ groups. In the compounds containing Si? H and C? Cl-groups the polarity of the Si? H-bond increases with the degree of chlorination at the C-atom. By that, the different chemical behaviour can be understood. The preparations of the starting compounds are described.     

Crystal violet combined with Merocyanine 540 for the ex vivo purging of hematopoietic stem cell grafts

The purpose of this study was to determine in a preclinical purging model, how effective crystal violet-mediated photodynamic therapy (CV-PDT) is against solid tumor and drug-resistant mutant tumor cells, and if certain limitations of CV-PDT can be overcome by using crystal violet (CV) in combination with the membrane-active photosensitizer, Merocyanine 540 (MC540). When used under conditions that preserved an adequate fraction of normal human granulocyte/macrophage progenitors (CFU-GM), CV-PDT failed to achieve meaningful reductions of DU145 prostate, H69 small cell lung cancer, and MDA-MB-435S breast cancer cells. Melphalan-resistant L1210/L-PAM1, adriamycin-resistant P388/ADR, and adriamycin-resistant HL-60/ADR leukemia cells were markedly less sensitive to CV-PDT than their wild-type counterparts, whereas cisplatin-resistant H69/CDDP cells were more sensitive than wild-type H69 cells. Sequential exposure to MC540- and CV-PDT under conditions that preserved an adequate fraction (73% and 29%, respectively) of normal CD34-positive hematopoietic stem cells and granulocyte/macrophage progenitors was highly effective against H69 (99.997% reduction) and H69/CDDP (99.999% reduction) cells, but ineffective against HL-60/ADR, MDA-MB-435S, and DU145 cells. CV thus shows only limited promise as a single-modality purging agent. However, in certain situations, clinically meaningful tumor cell depletions can be obtained by using CV in combination with a second photosensitizer such as MC540.

Formation of Organosilicon Compounds. 70. Reactions of Si-fluorinated 1,3,5-Trisilapentanes with CH₃MgCl and LiCH₃ F₃Si? CCl₂? SiF₂? CH₂? SiF₃ 3 reacts with meMgCl. (me = Ch₃ starting with a Si-methylation and not with a C-metallation as in the corresponding Si- and C-chlorinated compounds, e. g. (Cl₃Si? CCl₂)₂SiCl₂ [2]. A CCl-hydrogenation is observed too, which in the case of F₃Si? CCl₂? SiF₂? CHCl? SiF₃ 4 gives meS₃Si? CCl₂? Sime₂? CH₂? Sime₃. (F₃Si? CCl₂)_{2 5} reacts with meMgCl to form preferentially 1,2-Disilapropanes by cleaving a Si? Cbond. The isolation of F₃Si? CCl₂H and meF₂Si? CCl₂? SiF₂me allows to locate the bond where 5 is cleaved at the beginning of the reaction. With meLi 5 reacts to form mainly me₃Si? C?C? Sime₃, showing that in the reaction of meLi, being a stronger reagent than meMgCl, and 5 a C-metallation occurs, following the same mechanism as in the reaction with (Cl₃Si? CCl₂)₂)SiCl₂ [2]. The reaction conditions for the synthesis of Si-fluroinated and C-chlorinated 1,3,5-Trisilapentanes in a 0.1 mol scale are reported. N.m.r. data of all investigated compounds are tabulated.     

Synthesis of aryleneisopropylidene polymers

Linear, high molecular weight aryleneisopropylidene (AIP) polymers have been synthesized via Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions. Monomers such as p-bis-2-chloroiso-propylbenzene condense readily with arylene compounds of high electron density such as naphthalene and diphenyl ether. Catalytic amounts of tritylhexafluoroarsenate catalysts in combination with aluminum chloride and nitrobenzene direct the synthetic reactions towards a pure AIP structure. Side reactions which give polyindane structures through dimerization of p-bis(2-chloroisopropyl)benzene are eliminated when the polymerization temperature is kept below ?20°C. The preferred solvents are chlorinated compounds. A wide range of structural modifications and properties can be obtained by varying the monomer combinations. Desirable physical properties of AIP polymers include clarity, rigidity, impact toughness, oxidative stability, and resistance to stress cracking.     

Anion-exchange separation of metal ions in dimethyl sulphoxide-methanol-hydrochloric acid

The effect of dimethyl sulphoxide on the anion-exchange behaviour of many metals m a methanolic system with hydrochloric acid was explored. Distribution coefficients for 26 elements were determined in a mixed solvent system of dimethyl sulphoxide-methanol-0.6M hydrochloric acid, in which the proportions of dimethyl sulphoxide and methanoi were varied. Lead(II) and silver(I) complexes are soluble in this system. Interesting effects were noted for gold(III), iron(III), molybdenum(VI) and uranium(VI). As a measure of the usefulness of the systems studied, 27 anion-exchange separations of two- to four-component mixtures of metal ions were carried out, each with quantitative results.

P(Sime₃)₂. (me₃Si)₃P can be cleaved with ClP(C₆H₅)₂ and ClPme₂ yielding (me₃Si)₂P? P(C₆H₅)₂ and (me₃Si)₂P? Pme₂, respectively. The ¹H- and ³¹P-n.m.r. and mass spectroscopic data are reported.     

Simultaneous ion-exclusion/cation-exchange chromatography of anions and cations in acid rain waters on a weakly acidic cation-exchange resin by elution with sulfosalicylic acid

A simple, selective, and sensitive method for the simultaneous determination of anions (sulfate, nitrate, and chloride) and cations (sodium, ammonium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium) in acid rain waters was developed using ion-exclusion/ cation-exchange chromatography with conductimetric detection. A weakly acidic cation-exchange resin column (Tosho TSKgel OA-PAK-A) and a sulfosalicylic acid-methanol-water eluent was used. With a mobile phase comprising 1.25 mM sulfosalicylic acid in methanol-water (7.5:92.5) at 1.2 ml/min, simultaneous separation and detection of the above anions and cations was achieved in about 30 min. Linear calibration plots of peak area versus concentration were obtained over the concentration ranges 0-1.0 mM for anions (R=0.9991) and 0-0.5 mM for cations (R=0.9994). Detection limits calculated at S/N=3 ranged from 4.2 to 14.8 ppb for the anions and from 2.4 to 12.1 ppb for the cations. The reproducibility of retention times was 0.14-0.15% relative standard deviation (RSD) for anions and 0.18-0.31% for cations, and reproducibility of chromatographic peak areas was 1.22-1.75% RSD for anions and 1.81-2.10% for cations. The method was applied successfully to the simultaneous determination of anions and cations in aerosols transported from mainland China to central Japan, as determined by a meteorological satellite data analyzer.     

Bildung siliciumorganischer Verbindungen. 73. Reaktionen C-chlorierter 1,3-Disilapropane mit CH3MgCl

Formation of Organosilicon Compounds. 73. Reactions of C-chlorinated 1,3-Disilapropanes with CH₃MgCl (Cl₃Si)₂CCl₂ reacts with an excess of meMgCl (me = CH₃) in Et₂O (diethylether) forming (me₃Si)₂₂C?CH₂ mainly besides Si-methylated 1,3-disilapropanes with CmeCl, CHCl, CH₂ groups [6]. For investigating the mechanism of formation of the methylidengroup reactions were carried out with differently Si-methylated and Si-chlorinated 2-methyl-1-2-chloro-1,3-disilapropanes and 2,2-dichloro-1,3-disilapropanes. Whereas (me₃Si)₂CmeCl reacts neither with meMgCl nor with Lime. it forms (me₃Si)₂C?CH₂ and (me₃Si)₂CmeH with Li or Mg resp. The reaction starts with the metallation to (me₃Si)₂CmeLi and (me₃Si)₂Cme(MgCl) resp., followed by elimination of LiH and HMgCl resp. with formation of (me₃Si)₂C?CH₂. LiH and HMgCl resp. reduces (me₃Si)₂CmeCl to (me₃Si)₂CmeH. This mechanism is supported by the reactions of (me₃Si)₂CCl(CD₃). The Si-chlorination increases the reactivity of the CmeCl group and the created C?CH₂ group favours Si-methylation. The CCl₂ group is more reactive than the CmeCl group; (me₃Si)₂CCl₂ already forms the methyliden group with meMgCl in Et₂O via the not isolated intermediate (me₃Si)₂CCl(MgCl). which prefers the methylation to (me₃Si)₂Cme(MgCl). The n.m.r. data of the investigated compounds are given.     

Photochemistry of 3-Substituted 1-Iminopyridinium Ylides. Regiospecific versus non-regiospecific photoisomerization patterns [1]

3-Substituted 1-iminopyridinium ylides 1 undergo photo-induced ring enlargement to 1H-1,2-diazepines. With strongly electron-withdrawing substituents the ring expansion process is regiospecific and leads exclusively to 4-substituted 1 H-1, 2-diazepines. Weak electron-donating substituents, like a methyl group and halogen atoms, do not have any directing effect since both 4- and 6-substituted 1 H -1,2-diazepines are obtained. With strong electron-donating substituents no diazepines are formed; instead one observes photo-induced isomerization to the 2-aminopyridine derivatives, the process being non-regiospecific. Regiospecific photo-induced ring expansion processes are explained in terms of a simple HMO model.     

“Stat” methods in continuous flow analysis : Determination of Copper,Iron, Iodide and Hydrochloric Acid

A continuous flow “stat” method is described in which a certain arbitrarily imposed state in the flowing stream is automatically maintained by regulating the rate of flow of one of the components. The electronic system is regulated by measuring a physical phenomenon in the flowing solution. The method is illustrated by the examples of a continuous flow absorptiostat [Fe(III)/S₂O₃^2-/Cu(II)]for determinations of copper(II) (1–10 μg ml^-1), iron(III) (25–250 or 12.5–125 μg ml^-1), as well as for determination of iodide (12.8–128 μg ml^-1). A continuous flow conductostat [HCl/NaOH] for determination of 1–2.5 × 10^-4 M HCl is also described. This analytical technique is intended for automatic continuous monitoring of sample streams.
