Simple method for the preparation of 1-oxo-1-chlorophospholenes

Conclusions A new and simple method has been found for the synthesis of 1-oxo-1-chlorophospholenes by the reaction of phosphorus trichloride, a diene, and an oxygen-donor compound, the best of which is acetone.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1847–1848, August, 1972.     

EPR spectra of halogenonitromethane anion radicals

Conclusions It was deduced that fluorine is in a -combined state in the anion radicals we studied; this was based on an analysis of the EPR spectra of a series of fluoronitroalkane anion radicals.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 458–460, February, 1969.In conclusion, the authors express their appreciation to A. A. Fainzil'berg for his interest in our work.

Reactions of diterpenoids on solid supports II. Behavior of di- and tricyclic diterpenoids on alumina containing oxidants

The behavior of epimanool (1), epimanool oil, larixol (2), cis-abienol (3) and methyl dehydroabietate (4) on alumina impregnated with oxidants (H₂CrO₄ and KMnO₄) has been studied. This has led to the methyl ketone (5) and norambrenolide (8) - precursors of the perfume substances 14,15,17-trinorlabdane-8,13-dione (6), 8-hydroxy-14,15-bisnorlabd-II-en-13-one (7), and methyl 7-oxodehydroabietate (14). -Levantenolide (11) has been synthesized in one stage from cis-abienol (3)for the first time.Novosibirsk Insitute of Organic Chemistry, Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

An immobiline DryStrip application method enabling high-capacity two-dimensional gel electrophoresis

In the field of proteomics the need to detect low-abundance cellular components, such as regulatory proteins, is of critical importance. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) is one of the most commonly used separation tools for these biological investigations. In this paper we report an alternative micropreparative 2-D PAGE sample application method, called the "paper bridge loading" method. This method makes it possible to apply a larger sample volume to commercially available immobilized pH gradient (IPG) strips. The Vh products required for focusing are only marginally longer than those used in analytical experiments. The method was compared to traditional cup loading and in-gel rehydration. With 18 cm long narrow-range Immobiline DryStrip pH 4.5-5.5, the "paper bridge" method allowed the application of 10 mg human plasma proteins compared to 3 mg with traditional loading methods. The corresponding figures using Escherichia coli sample was found to be 6 mg and less than 2 mg, respectively. The paper bridge method also showed the best results in terms of spot resolution and separation of high molecular weight proteins.     

Hydrolysis study of organic acid anhydrides by differential thermal analysis-I Pyromellitic dianhydride

A technique for following the hydrolysis of pyromellitic acid dianhydride (PMDA) by differential thermal analysis (DTA) is described. On exposure of PMDA to moisture, an endothennic peak is initiated between 190 and 200 degrees . As the degree of hydrolysis increases, this peak becomes more intense and shifts to higher temperatures. The formation of pyromellitic acid (PMA) during the hydrolysis of PMDA can be determined qualitatively by DTA.     

Reaction of perfluoroisobutylene with potassium thiocyanate

Conclusions The authors obtained perfluoroisobutenyl isothiocyanate by reacting perfluoroisobutylene with potassium thiocyanate, and studied some of its properties.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 1176–1178, May, 1969.
