Nature of mechanically induced defects in polycrystalline hydrargillite and Al2O3-A1(OH)3 studied by radiation methods

Mechanical treatment of hydrargillite Al(OH)₃ in a vibrational grinder and in a ball-mill grinder increases the dispersion, the specific surface area, and the unit-cell constants. An x-ray amorphous phase forms. Differences in the nature and in the concentration of paramagnetic centers arise on irradiation (77 K) of the mechanically treated samples. Anion vacancies and oxygen ions with disrupted short-range order appear in the mechanically treated samples. Their concentration increases with increased time of mechanical treatment. Pulsed thermal treatment of hydrargillite forms the Al₂O₃-Al(OH)₃ system and anneals the mechanically induced defects.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1463–1467, July, 1990.     

Extractive substances ofLarix dahurica

Summary The quantitative determination of quercetin and dihydroquercetin in the total flavonoids ofLatrix dahurica has been effected by the use of thin-layer chromatography on Kapron for separating the mixture with subsequent elution of the spots and colorimetry of the eluates obtained. The methanol-dimethylformamide (1:1) system was used as the eluate. It has been found that the flavonoids of the heartwood ofLatrix dahurica contain a predominating amount, 69% of dihydroquercetin, the amount of quercetin being 11%.Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, Vol. 3, No. 5, pp. 298–301, 1967     

Formation of negative ions by interaction of electrons with heterocyclic compounds

Curves are derived for the effective yield of negative ions from the interaction of electrons with thiophene, 2-methylthiophene, 2-propylthiophene, 3-methylthiophene, 3-propylthiophene, furan, and selenophene. It is found that there are two quasi-stationary states of the molecular negative ions having lifetimes of about 10^–14 and 4 · 10^–15 sec. The cross sections for formation of these states are estimated, and also the cross sections for resonant elastic scattering of electrons. The states are shown to be related to excited states of the molecule. It is found that alkyl substitution has the following effects on resonant electron capture: a) reduces the probability of ring breakage and b) reduces the energy levels of the quasi-stationary state. Some aspects of dissociative ionization are discussed.     

Arylhydroxyacetic acids and amino acids derived from ethinylphenols

Conclusions A method of synthesis of arylhydroxyacetic acids and ammo acids derived from ethinylphenols has been developed in view of possible physiological activity of these compounds.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 1170–1172, May, 1970.     

Reactions of amides of arylphosphorous acids with acyl chlorides

Conclusions The reactions of amides of arylphosphorous acids with acyl chlorides take place with replacement of the amide group and formation of amides of carboxylic acids and the corresponding aryl chlorophosphates.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 9, pp. 2131–2133, September, 1968.     

Functional derivatives of thiophenes

2,3-Polymethylene-4-oxo-3,4-dihydrothieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives were obtained by reaction of esters of α-aminothiophene-β-carboxylic acids with lactame or α-aminothiophene-Β-carboxylic acids with lactims. Desulfuration of the thienopyrimidines obtained in this manner is a convenient method for the synthesis of pyrrolo-, pyrido-, and azepino[1,2-a]pyrimidine derivatives.     

Strukturaufklärung sesquiterpenoider Pflanzeninhaltsstoffe

In the essential oil of Asarum europaeum L. the four sesquiterpene alcohols α-eudesmol, β-eudesmol, selinane-7,11-diol and seline-6(7)en-11-ol have been isolated and identified. For limiting the possibilities of structure the dehydrogenating TAS method (sulphur dehydrogenation) has been employed. Good results have been obtained with unsaturated C₁₅-alcohols. Saturated sesquiterpene alcohols with decalin structure could be better dehydrogenated by the selenium method. UV spectra have been recorded of the naphthalene derivatives formed directly from the thin-layer plate and employed for identification. By this combination of micro methods the basic structure of the alcohols could be determined unequivocally with μg amounts.     

Circular dichroism of some pregnenes substitutes at C-17

The optical properties of pregnenes containing different substituents at C-17 (—SCN, —SAc, —SC(CH₃)₂O—, —Br, —OAc, —N₃) have been investigated with the help of the CD spectra. It is shown that the sign and value of the Cotton effect of the carbonyl chromophore n → π^* transition is determined by the nature of the substituent at C-17.
