Zur Kenntnis des 2-Methyl-2,4-dineopentyl-imidazolin-Δ3-thions-(5) aus Methyl-neopentylketon

Zusammenfassung Bei der Einwirkung von Schwefel und gasförmigem NH₃ auf Methylneopentylketon setzt sich bei Verwendung eines Schwefelüberschusses und von bestimmten reaktionsbeschleunigenden Zusätzen bei Raumtemp. der größte Teil des in Reaktion getretenen Ketons zu 2-Methyl-2,4-dineopentyl-imidazolin-³-thion-(5) (II) um. II bildet sich mit ausgezeichneten Ausbeuten aus dem 4,4-Dimethyl-2-oxo-valeriansäure-thionamid und Methylneopentylketon in Gegenwart von NH₃ und H₂S. Letztere Reaktion läßt sich mit Erfolg auch auf die Umsetzung anderer -Oxothionamide mit Ketonen und NH₃ anwenden.Korrespondenz nur an diese Adresse.Vgl. 50 Mitt.: Mh.

Quinaldine derivatives with fluorine-containing substituents and cyanine dyes based on them

Condensation of fluorine-containing anilines with paraldehyde gave quinaldine derivatives with CF₃, CF₃S, and CF₃SO₂ groups in the 6 position, from which carbocyanine, merocyanine, and styryl dyes were synthesized. Fluorine-containing groups lower the basicity of quinaldine by 0.7–2.0 pK_a units and lead to deepening of the color of the dyes.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 76–78, January, 1978.

Discrimination ofn=2→2 UV transitions of he-like ions in a recoil light source

Neon and argon recoil ions were produced by collisions with 5.9 MeV/amu uranium projectiles andΔn=0 ultraviolet transitions from the metastable 1s2p ³ P _0,2 levels of the target ions were measured in delay to the pulsed projectile beam.     

Lifetimes of bacteriochlorophyll fluorescence in Rhodopseudomonas viridis and Heliobacterium chlorum at low temperatures

Fluorescence lifetimes of isolated membranes of Rhodopseudomonas viridis were measured in the temperature range of 77 K to 25 K. At room temperature, the main component of the fluorescence decay of bacteriochlorophyll (BChl) b had a time constant of 50 ps. In contrast to other purple bacteria, the emission at low temperature was spectrally homogeneous and showed essentially single lifetimes of 140 ps at 77 K and 180 ps at 25 K, with the primary electron donor in the oxidized state. Taking into account the relative fluorescence yields with open and closed reaction centers, we arrive at numbers of 125 ps and 215 ps, respectively, for open reaction centers. These numbers are significantly smaller than expected on the basis of measurements of the efficiency of charge separation, perhaps suggesting that the excitation decay in the absence of reaction centers is considerably faster at low temperature than at room temperature. At least four different spectral components with different lifetimes were observed at 25 K in the emission of Heliobacterium chlorum, a short-wavelength component of about 30 ps and three longer-wavelength components of about 100 ps, 300 ps, and 900 ps. This indicates a strong heterogeneity in the emitting pigment, BChl g-808. The component with the shortest lifetime does not appear to be affected by the redox state of the reaction center and might reflect energy transfer to BChl g species which are connected to the reaction center.     

New synthetic and structural aspects in the chemistry of alkylaluminum fluorides. The mutual influence of hard and soft ligands and the hybridization as rigorous structural criterion

A general synthetic strategy starting from metal alkyls is reported based on the hydrogen difluoride anion as a suitable reagent for obtaining organometallic fluorides. The newly prepared compounds are [Me(4)N][(i-Bu)(2)AlF(2)] (1), [Ph(4)P][(i-Bu)(2)AlF(2)] (2), and [Ph(4)P][AlF(4)] (3), containing the tetrahedral anions [(i-Bu)(2)AlF(2)](-) and [AlF(4)](-). The actual structures are prototypes that allowed a comparison of inorganic and organometallic fluorides in the frame of the hard and soft acid and base principle, by means of ab initio calculations. A new theoretical model is designed to put in equation form the qualitative statements of the Bent rule. The model allows the rationalization of the tendencies of bond angle variation in [R(2)MX(2)] systems containing a main group metal (M), in terms of hybridization of the central atom and the reciprocal influence of hard and soft ligands.     

Electron diffraction studies of the molecular structures of iron(II) chloride and iron(II) bromide. Evidence on the structure of dimeric species Fe2Br4

An expression for the extreme values of mean-square amplitudes of vibrations in polyatomic molecules has been derived which permits estimation of the mean-square amplitude without solving the vibrational problem. This expression can be improved for the stretching and scissoring modes when the assignment of frequencies is known. In turn, the corresponding vibrational frequency may be estimated from the experimental value of the mean-square amplitude. The mean-square amplitudes of the butadiene-1,3 molecule are considered as an example.     

Investigation of the state of a symmetrical tert-butyl-substituted macroheterocyclic compound in solution by PMR spectroscopy

The PMR spectra of the macroheterocyclic compound obtained by the reaction of 5-tert-butyl-1,3-diiminoisoindoline with 1,3-phenylenediamine in refluxing butyl alcohol and purified by chromatography on aluminum oxide were recorded. It is shown that the compound does not contain a unified conjugated macroring system. The dependence of the chemical shift of the protons of the endocyclic imino groups on the nature of the solvent was investigated. It is shown that the formation of compound-solvent intermolecular hydrogen bonds is complicated by steric factors.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 1, pp. 62–64, January, 1981.
