A new method is proposed for the synthesis of derivatives of indeno[1,2-b]-pyrrole-4-onesby intramolecular cyclization of the corresponding 5-(o-carboxyphenyl)pyrroles by trifluoroacetic anhydride.Deceased.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1333–1335, October, 1987.     

QSPR Modeling of Complex Stability by Correlation Weighing of the Topological and Chemical Invariants of Molecular Graphs

The concept of modeling of the complex stability based on optimization of the correlation weights of the nearest neighborhood codes (NNC), the hydrogen bond index (HBI), and the cyclicity code (CC) is described. The NNC is a local topochemical invariant of a vertex of the molecular graph whose numerical value is a function of the total number and the composition of vertices adjacent to the given vertex. The HBI is a global chemical invariant of the molecular graph calculated from the number of oxygen and nitrogen atoms. The CC is a global topological invariant of the graph equal to the number of rings present in the ligand structure. The statistical characteristics of the best model of the stability constants of the complexes are as follows: n = 75, r = 0.9738, s = 0.457, F = 1337 (training sample); n = 75, r = 0.9795, s = 0.461, F = 1724 (test sample).     

Synthesis of ortho- and para-quinones of the benzindole series

Ethyl esters of -(3-chloro-1,4-naphthoquinon-3-yl)crotonic or cinnamic acids were obtained by the reaction of 2,3-dichloro-1,4-naphthoquinone with ethyl esters of N-substituted -aminocrotonic or -aminocinnamic acids. These esters were converted by alkaline fusion into benz[f]indole-4,9-dione-3-carboxylic acids, and into ethyl esters of benz[g]indole-4,5-dione-3-carboxylic acid by the action of acetic acid.Deceased.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 66–68, January, 1989.     

Heat capacity and thermodynamic functions of 4,4′-dimethylbiphenyl and 4,4′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl

The heat capacity (C _{p m} ) of 4,4′-dimethylbiphenyl and 4,4′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl in the temperature range of 8—373 K was measured by low-temperat ure adiabatic calorimetry, and thermodynamic characteristics of the solid-phase transitions of 4,4′-d i-tert-butylbiphenyl were determined. Temperatures, enthalpies, entropies of melting, and the purity of the samples of the tested substances were determined by means of differential scanning calorimetry. The main thermodynamic functions of the substances in the condensed state at 298 K were calculated.     

Solution behavior of methyl cellulose mixtures with poly(<Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-vinylformamide) in water and dimethyl sulfoxide

The rheological properties of diluted and moderately concentrated solutions of methyl cellulose mixtures with poly(N-vinylformamide) in water and dimethyl sulfoxide are investigated. Negative deviations of the viscosities of these solutions from the additive values are observed and explained by different mechanisms of solvation of macromolecules with water and dimethyl sulfoxide. Incompatibility of the polymers in a common solvent is discovered. This circumstance leads to the formation of a new system of hydrogen bonds and rearrangement of the structural organization of solutions.     

Structural and magnetic studies of tetranuclear heterometallic M/Cr (M = Co,Mn) complexes self-assembled from zerovalent cobalt or manganese,Reineckes salt and diethanolamine

Four novel heterometallic complexes [Co₂Cr₂(NCS)₄(HDea)₂(Dea)₂]·4dmf (1), [Co₂Cr₂(NCS)₄(HDea)₂(Dea)₂]·4dmso (2), [Mn₂Cr₂(NCS)₄(HDea)₂(Dea)₂(dmf)₂]·2dmf (3) and [Mn₂Cr₂(NCS)₄(HDea)₂(Dea)₂(dmso)₂]·4dmso (4) have been prepared using zerovalent cobalt (1, 2) or manganese (3, 4), Reineckes salt, ammonium thiocyanate and a non-aqueous solution of diethanolamine (H₂Dea) in air. The single X-ray analysis reveals that all compounds have similar centrosymmetric crystal structures based on a tetranuclear {M₂Cr₂(μ₃-O)₂(μ-O)₄} (M = Co, Mn) core. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements of 1, 2 and 4 show antiferromagnetic coupling between the magnetic centers, while 3 exhibits a ferromagnetic behavior.     

Properties of aqueous solutions containing blends of poly-N-vinylformamide with carboxymethyl cellulose of various degrees of ionization and of composite films of these polymers

Rheological properties of mixtures of dilute and moderately concentrated aqueous solutions of poly-N-vinylformamide and carboxymethyl cellulose of various degrees of ionization were studied. Composite film materials were prepared, and their physicomechanical properties and structural organization were studied.     

IR spectra of diastereomeric (with respect to phosphorus) 2′, 3′-O-alkylphosphonates of nucleosides

In a study of the IR absorption spectra of diastereomeric (with respect to phosphorus) 2,3-O-alkylphosphonates of nucleosides it was shown that the IR spectra of the diastereomers differ at 820–860 (_O-P-O), 1040–1060 (_P-O-C), and 1250–1300 cm^–1 (_P=O). Higher _O=P and _P-O-C values and lower _O-P-O values are observed for the R isomers (as compared with the S isomers), and this provides a possibility for the determination of the orientation of the P=O group relative to the protons of the phospholane ring in alkylphosphonates of nucleosides by comparison of the spectra of the diastereomers.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 181–184, February, 1979.
