Photoinduzierte Cycloadditionen von 3-Benzyl-2H-azirin

Irradiation of 2-azido-3-phenyl-propene ( 5 ) in pentane or benzene solution with a high pressure lamp (pyrex filter) yields 3-benzyl-2H-azirin ( 6 ), which on further irradiation behind quartz or vycor in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid methylester or carbon dioxide yields 4-benzyl-5-methoxy-5-trifluoromethyl-3-oxazolin ( 8 ) and 4-benzyl-3-oxazolin-5-one ( 9 ), respectively (scheme 2). A small amount of 3-phenylacetonitrile is also formed.     

Ruthenium-catalyzed olefin metathesis double-bond isomerization sequence

A novel ruthenium-catalyzed tandem ring-closing metathesis (RCM) double-bond isomerization reaction is described in this paper. The utility of this method for the efficient syntheses of five-, six-, and seven-membered cyclic enol ethers is demonstrated. It relies on the conversion of a metathesis-active ruthenium carbene species to an isomerization-active ruthenium-hydride species in situ. This conversion is achieved by using various additives. Scope and limitations of the different protocols are discussed, and some mechanistic considerations based on (31)P and (1)H NMR spectroscopic studies are presented.     

Die gravimetrische Phosphorbestimmung in wolframhaltigen St?hlen

Zusammenfassung Einige der üblichen Methoden zur Phosphorbestimmung in wolframlegierten Stählen werden unter Anwendung von ¹⁸⁵W und ³²P einer Nachprüfung unterzogen. Dabei erweisen sich die Phosphorverluste durch Adsorption an dem Wolframsäureniederschlag als gering, so daß sie bei weniger anspruchsvollen Bestimmungen unberücksichtigt bleiben können. Erheblich größer sind dagegen die Fehler, die durch Mitfällung von Wolframsäure mit dem Ammoniummolybdatophosphatniederschlag entstehen können. Es werden zwei Methoden angegeben, nach denen eine quantitative Abtrennung des Wolframs und damit eine sichere Bestimmung des Phosphors möglich ist.Herr Prof. Dr.-Ing. K. Schwabe ermöglichte es uns freundlicherweise, die Untersuchungen mit radioaktivem Wolfram und Phosphor im Zentralinstitut für Kernphysik Rossendorf, Bereich Radiochemie, durchzuführen. Ihm sei auch an dieser Stelle herzlichst gedankt.     

Repetierbare Ringerweiterungen durch [2,3]-sigmatropische Umlagerungen in cyclischen Allylsulfonium-allyliden; Synthese von mittleren und grossen Thiacyclen. Vorläufige Mitteilung

Repeatable ring expansions by [2,3]-sigmatropic shifts in cyclic allylsulfonium allylides; synthesis of medium- and large-sized thiacycles Allylation of a 2-vinyl thiacyclus with allyl bromide in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol followed by ylide generation by use of aqueous potassium hydroxide results in a [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement with formation of a new 2-vinyl thiacyclus enlarged by three carbon atoms (Scheme 1). In this way, starting from the 5-membered ring 1 , a series of four ring enlargement sequences leads to the 17-membered thiacycles 9 and 10 via the 8-, 11- and 14-membered rings 4 , 7 and 8 (Scheme 2).     

Trennung und Identifizierung von Bactericiden auf der Basis von halogenierten Aromaten durch Dünnschicht-Chromatographie

Plates coated with silica gel with addition of fluorescence indicator are used for thin-layer chromatography with a solvent mixture of benzene and acetone (8∶2). The substances are made visible with UV-light and by spraying with solutions of 2,6-dibromoquinonechloroimide and sodium carbonate. The R_f-values, the fluorescence, and the colour of the spots allow to detect and to identify the bactericides rapidly and without further chemical techniques.     

Isolierung von 10′-Apo-β-carotin-10′-ol und (3R)-10′-Apo-β-carotin-3,10′-diol (Galloxanthin) aus Rosenblüten. 5. Mitteilung über Rosenfarbstoffe

Isolation of 10′-Apo-β-carotene-10′-ol and (3R)-10′-Apo-β-carotene-3,10′-diol (Galloxanthin) from Rose Flowers The novel (all-E)-10′-apol-β-carotene-10′-ol ( 2 ) and (all-E,3R)-10′-apo-β-carotene-3,10′-diol ( 5 ) have been isolated from petals of one yellow species and various whitish or yellow blend varieties of rose cultivars. Each (all-E)-compound is accompanied by a (Z)-isomer, probably the (9Z)-isomer. Diol 5 proved to be identical with galloxanthin, an apo-10′-carotenol previously isolated from the retina of chicken.     

Studies of the reactions between indole-2,3-diones (isatins) and 2-aminobenzylamine

Reflux of equimolecular amounts 2-aminobenzylamine and isatins in acetic acid produced indolo[3,2-c]quinolin-6-ones in good yields. A proposed mechanism involving initial formation of a spiro compound is given. This isolable intermediate subsequently rearranges via a sequential isocyanate ring opening and a cyclisation process to a urea derivative which finally cyclized to the indolo[3,2-c]quinolin-6-ones. The urea derivative could be prepared separately and cyclized selectively to indolo[3,2-c]quinolin-6-one. Reaction of N-acetylisatin with 2-aminobenzylamine at room temperature yielded the 1,4-benzodiazepinone 3-(2-acetamidophenyl)-1,5-dihydro-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one whereas its isomer 2(2-acetamidophenyl)-4,5-dihydro-1,4-benzodiazepin-3-one was obtained from 2-(2-acetylaminophenyl)-N-(2-aminobenzyl)-2-oxoacetamide in acetic acid at room temperature.The previously unknown linear isomer of indolo[3,2-c]quinolin-6-one, i.e. indolo[2,3-b]quinolin-11-one, has been prepared by thermal (260°C) cyclization of methyl 2-phenylamino indole-3-carboxylate, which in turn was prepared in two steps from methyl indole-3-carboxylate.

The framework of the six-membered (Mn? P)₃-ring can be described as having a twist boat conformation. The average endocyclic bond angles are with 89.1° at the Mn atoms and 130.1° at the P atoms, respectively, largely widened compared to 1 . The average Mn?

The cell constants (hexagonal setting) are a = b = 1686.1 pm, c = 561.1 pm and Z = 3 formula units. The six-membered (Ni? P)₃-ring exhibits a chair conformation. The endocyclic bond angles are with 92.3° at the Ni atoms and 124.3° at the P atoms, respectively, comparable with those of the six-membered ring compound 2 . The Ni? P bond distance is found to be 215.2 pm. The eyclopentadienyl ligands are disordered and have been refined as rigid groups.

¹²¹Sb Mössbauer Spectra of Antimony (V) Compounds. III The Mössbauer resonance effect of ¹²¹Sb has been studied in the antimony(V) compounds I–VI. Isomer shift and quadrupole splitting variations are considered in the light of results of vibrational spectroscopy and in part of X-ray data.

R?ntgenspektrometrische Goldbestimmung in sulfidischen Erzen nach chemischer Anreicherung

Zusammenfassung Es wird eine Goldbestimmung an sulfidischen Erzen für den Bereich von 0,05–5 ppm bei 20 g Einwaage beschrieben. Das Gold wird durch Salpetersäurebehandlung von den übrigen Metallen getrennt, mit Salzsäure/ Salpetersäure gelöst und mit Selen als innerem Standard und Tellur als Spurenfänger mittels Zinn(II)-chlorid gefällt. Der Niederschlag wird auf ein Membranfilter aufgezogen. Die Goldbestimmung erfolgt über den Impulsratenquotienten der Gold L- und Selen K-Linien. Die störende Molybdän K-Strahlung und die Comptonstreuung werden durch ein Zirkoniumblech auf dem Röhrenfenster unterdrückt. Der Variationskoeffizient beträgt 20% für 0,2–5 ppm und 53,6% für 0,05 ppm.

Summary A method is described for the determination of gold in sulphide ores within the concentration range of 0.05–5 ppm with sample weights of 20 g. Gold is separated from the other metals by treatment with nitric acid, dissolved by hydrochloric acid, containing some nitric acid, and is finally precipitated by stannous chloride applying selenium as internal standard and tellurium as collecting agent. The precipitate is mounted on a diaphragm filter and the determination of gold is carried out by X-ray analysis suppressing the disturbing Mo _K radiation and compton scattering by a zirconium sheet-metal on the X-ray tube. The pulse rate quotient of the lines Au _L /Se _K is a function of the concentration of gold. The variation coefficient is 20% for 0.2–5 ppm and 53.6% for 0.05 ppm.
