Methyltriazolocoumarins: New furocoumarin isosters as potential photochemotherapeutic agents

A number of new methyltriazolocoumarins with a linear psoralen-like structure or an angular angelicin-like structure were synthetized. The syntheses were performed starting from the appropriate methylated 7-aminocoumarins which were nitrated, reduced and successively diazotized with concomitant cyclization to form the condensed triazolo ring. The new methyltriazolocoumarins show promising spectroscopic properties which are potentially predictive of their photochemical and photobiological behaviour.     

Synthesis of 4-allyl-4-arylaminopiperidines and their transformations to spiro[tetrahydroquinoline-2,4′-piperidines]

It was established that the yields of a 4-allyl-4-aryl-aminopiperidines in the reaction of 4-aryliminopiperidines with allylmagnesium bromide increase significantly if the reaction is carried out in the presence of a crown ether. A number of previously unknown spiro[tetrahydroquinoline-2,4-piperidines] were obtained in the cyclization of 4-allyl-4-arylaminopiperidines in the presence of sulfuric acid.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1514–1519, November, 1989.     

Highly polarized enamines. 2. Synthesis and investigation of the further amination of derivatives of α,α-DIAMINO-β-cyano-β-nitroethylene

Highly polarized enediamines of the a, -diamino--cyano--nitroethylene type have been obtained by the hydrolysis of 4-chloro-5-nitropyrimidines. Several chemical conversions of the enamines obtained have been studied, particularly leading to derivatives of 2-(cyanonitromethylene)imidazoline and -hexahydropyrimidine, and also to derivatives of N, N-bisvinylpiperazine and 7 methylene-1, 4-diazabicyclo(2.2. 1 ]heptane.Center for Drug Chemistry, All-Russian Chemical and Pharmaceutical Research Institute, Moscow 119815.

Synthesis of 6-arylspiro[tetrahydropyran-3,1′-cyclobutane]-2,4-diones

Methyl 1-(2-bromo-2-methyl-1-oxopropyl)-, 1-(1-bromocyclopentylcarbonyl)-, and 1-(1-bromocyclohexylcarbonyl) cyclobutanecarboxylates reacted with zinc and aromatic aldehydes to give, respectively, 7-aryl-2,2-dimethyl-6-oxaspiro[3.5]nonane-5,9-diones, 11-aryl-12-oxadispiro[3.1.4.3]tridecane-5,13-diones, and 12-aryl-13-oxadispiro[3.1.5.3]tetradecane-5,14-diones.     

A Possibility of Improving Lead Dioxide Electrode of Lead Battery

The influence exerted by a reinforcing additive, an aqueous suspension of 4D fluoroplastic (Teflon), on the structural, physicochemical, and service characteristics of the positive electrode of the lead battery was studied. A paste with polymer and carbon additives, extending the service life of the lead dioxide electrode, was developed for industrial use.     

Extractive substances formed from buckwheat grain production waste

Properties of liquid and dry extracts produced in treatment of buckwheat fruit shells (husk) and straw with water or an acid solution were studied. The conditions of pigment concentration from aqueous extracts by ultrafiltration were determined.
