Studies in the benzazole and naphthazole series. VIII. Reaction of 2-hydrazinonaphth[1, 2-d]imidazole and its 1- and 3-methyl derivatives with carbon disulfide

When heated with carbon disulfide in pyridine 2-hydrazinonaphth[1, 2-d]imidazole yields S-triazolo[4, 3-b]-naphth[1, 2-d]imidazole-3-thione. Kinetic and not steric factors determine the formation of this compound. Its trans-angular structure is demonstrated by the agreement between its UV spectrum and that of 11-methyl-S-triazolo[4, 3-b]naphth[1, 2-d]imidazole-3-thione, prepared from 1-methyl-2-hydrazinonaphth[1, 2-d]imidazole and carbon disulfide, as well as by the identity of their methylation products. Methyl iodide methylation, in the presence of sodium methoxide, of S-triazolo[4, 3-b]naphth[1, 2-d]imidazole-3-thione, like that of S-triazolo[4, 3-a]benzimidazole-3-thione, takes place stepwise. First the methyl group adds to the nitrogen atom of the imidazole ring, and only then to the thiol group of the triazole ring.For Part VII see [3].     

Synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines having an N-alkylpyridinium substituent at the 4-position and their affinity towards liposomal membranes

There has been synthesized a series of 1,4-dihydropyridines having an N-alkylpyridinium substituent at position 4 with a varying length of hydrocarbon chain. Their affinity to model (liposomal) membranes has been studied. It was found that this affinity increased with lengthening of the hydrocarbon chain on the Npyridinium substituent at the 4-position of the 1,4-dihydropyridine ring. However, lengthening of the hydrocarbon chain in the 3,5-ester groups of the 1, 4-dihydropyridine ring led to a decrease in the binding to the liposome when a 4-(N-hexadecylpyridinium) substituent was present.Latvian Institute of Organic Synthesis, Riga LV-1006.

Topological analysis of the structure-mesomorphous property ralationship

The use of topological indices to reveal the relationship between molecular structure and mesomorphous properties is discussed. Mathematical models for classification of mesophase types are proposed. The effect of molecular structure and attractive ability on phase transition temperatures is described. Examples of using correlation equations to predict the properties of 2,5-disubstituted 1,3-dioxanes are given. A. V. Bogatskii Physicochemical Institute, Ukrainian Academy of Sciences.

Purification of 3-ethoxycarbonylquinuclidine and its conversion to 3-quinuclidinecarboxylic acid and 3-quinuclidinylmethanol

3-Ethoxycarbonylquinuclidine obtained by the Grob method is a mixture of 3-ethoxycarbonyl-1-azabicylo-[2.2.2]- and, according to ¹³C NMR data, 5-ethoxycarbonyl-5-azatricyclo[3.2.1.0^2,7]octanes (1621). 3-Ethoxy-carbonylquinuclidine was purified by recrystallization of the hydrochloride, hydrolyzed by water to 3-quinuclidinecarboxylic acid, and reduced by LiAlH₄ to 3-quinuclidinylmethanol.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, 1509–1512, November, 1992.     

Complex study of nickel skeleton catalysts: V. Study of novel non-pyrophoric nickel skeleton catalysts by derivatograph

The structure and properties of non-pyrophoric skeleton catalysts prepared from NiSi, NiAlSi, NiMg and NiZn alloys have been studied—apart from other thermal methods—by means of the derivatograph.Our experimental results have contributed to the explanation of the non-pyrophoric behaviour of these catalysts. We demonstrated that the desorption of the hydrogen content in our catalysts is not accompanied by the oxidation of active nickel. This oxidation takes place only at higher temperatures, above 200°C, at a rate proportional to the amount of active nickel.Other constituents of the catalysts (adsorbed water, hydroxide content) were also determined from the experimental data. The outstandingly high Mg(OH)₂ content of the NiMg catalyst indicates that its structure is dissimilar: Mg(OH)₂ also acts as support for the catalyst.     

Cyclophosphamides from aminosugars and aminonucleosides

Condensation of bis-(2-chloroethyl)phosphoramidic dichloride with 3′-amino-3′-deoxy-N,N-dimethyladenosine afforded the 2′,3′-cyclicphosphorodiamidate (III). By an improved synthesis, methyl 3-amino-3-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranoside was obtained as a model compound for conversion to the analogous 2,3-cyclicphosphorodiamidate (XII). Existence of the latter as two diastereomers due to phosphorus asymmetry was shown by nmr analysis, using comparison with the 5-(O-p-nitrobenzoate) (XIII) as a basis for assignments.     

Synthesis and optical properties of nanohybrids in the system constituted by silica and lanthanide phosphoramide complexes

Sol-gel process of hydrolytic polycondensation of tetramethoxysilane with trimethoxysilyl derivatives of lanthanide phosphoramide complexes was studied in order to obtain photoluminescent organic-inorganic hybrid materials.

Synthesis of 3-imino and 3-ylideno derivatives of 4-fluoro-5-polyfluoroalkyl-1,2-dithiolenes

Reactions of 4-fluoro-5-polyfluoroalkyl-1,2-dithiol-3-thiones with hydroxylamine and hydrazines occur with replacement of the thiocarbonyl by imino group affording oximes and hydrazones respectively. N-Alkyl-and N-aryl-3-imino-1,2-dithiolenes formed in reactions of 3-chlorothio-1,2-dithiolium salts with primary alkyl-or arylamines. 3-Chlorothio-1,2-dithiolium salts react with compounds possessing an active methylene group yielding 3-ylideno derivatives of 1,2-dithiolenes.     

Phosphorus-containing Small Rings: X. Phosphorylation of Derivatives of 1-Methyl-2,2-dichlorocyclopropanecarboxylic Acid

Reaction of derivatives of 1-methyl-2,2-dichlorocyclopropanecarboxylic acid with three- and four-coordinate phosphorus acids was studied. It was established that the nucleophilic substitution on the carbonyl carbon atom proceeds without cleavage of the three-membered ring and leads to new types of phosphorus-containing cyclopropanes. The products were found to enhance the germination energy and laboratory germination of cereal, legume, and vegetable seeds.
