Bicyclic [b]-heteroannulated pyridazine derivatives. 4. Cyclization reactions of 4-aryltetrahydropyridazine-3,6-dione 3-hydrazones with some keto esters

Ethoxycarbonylalkylidene derivatives 2 and 6 of the title hydrazones were obtained in the reaction with ethyl pyruvate or ethyl aroylformate and ethyl acetoacetate, respectively, in methanol. Both compounds were mixtures of geometric isomers with high predominance of one of them. Nmr spectroscopy revealed an unexpected magnetic non-equivalence of the CH₂ protons in the ester ethyl group of the major isomer of 6 . On heating (?200°) in an inert medium or on refluxing in ethanolic sodium ethoxide 2 cyclized to the corresponding pyridazino[6,1-c]-triazines 4 , whereas 6 formed pyrazolylpyridazines 7 . The structure of the latter was unambigously established by X-ray analysis. Alkylation of 4a with benzyl bromide in the presence of tetrabutylammonium bromide occurred selectively on the pyridazine N atom.     

Radon-222 and 226Ra concentrations in mineralized groundwaters of Gorzanów (Kłodzko Basin, Sudeten Mountains, SW Poland)

This work characterizes the occurrence of radionuclides ²²²Rn and ²²⁶Ra in the mineralized groundwaters of Gorzanów. The village is situated in the Sudeten Mountains, which are known in Poland for having increased concentrations of the aforesaid radionuclides in their groundwaters. However, in Gorzanów, the measured concentrations of ²²⁶Ra were low both in the reservoir rocks and mineralized waters. Consequently, the ²²²Rn concentration in the groundwaters also turned out to be low. The ²²⁶Ra content of these waters should mainly be associated with the dissolution of this nuclide, together with other main ions, at large depths, at slightly enhanced temperature. Radon-222, on the other hand, penetrates into the water during its outflow to the surface, in the zones of intensive friable deformations near fault zones. Thus, in the groundwaters of Gorzanów, the concentrations of these nuclides, subsequent in the uranium series, do not have a common genesis and they are not correlated with each other.     

Inclusion-dependent mechanism of modification of cyclodextrins with heterocycles

Mono(6-deoxy-dimethylpyridinium)-β-cyclodextrins have been synthesized in reaction of mono (p-toluenesulfonyl) derivative of β cyclodextrin with the appropriate lutidine under microwave irradiation and conventional conditions. The results indicate that the mechanism consists of inclusion complex formation.     

Fluoroapatite - material for medicine,Growth, morphology and thermoanalytical properties

Fluoroapatite containing glass-ceramics were prepared from Li₂O-CaO-CaF₂-P₂O₅-SiO₂ system. The glass was melted at 1480°C for 1 h. The object of observation was the preparing crystal phase of fluoroapatite in amorphous glass matrix. The morphology of lithium disilicate glass-ceramics was studied by SEM. The crystal growth and thermal properties of fluoroapatite were studied by X-ray diffraction and DTA. The more the content of P₂O₅, the more the presence of fluoroapatite particles. SEM investigation clearly indicated the phase separation and formation of a primary crystalline phase of fluoroapatite in the studied glass-ceramics. DTA curves of the fluoroapatite samples exhibit exothermic effects in the temperature range 337-694°C depending on the composition of the materials. The position of exothermic peak for lithium disilicate on DTA curves moves with increasing specific surfacetowards lower temperatures which points on its preferential surface crystallization. As far as physical qualities are concerned, mainly color and gloss, the best qualities of all observed materials belong to glass-ceramics with 10% P₂O₅. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Studies of the soluble part of oxidised coals

Soluble products obtained from the oxidation of four types of coal, each characterised by different degree of coalification and different degree of sulphur content, are studied. The coals are oxidised with peracetic acid (PAA) and nitric acid. Analyses are performed by Atmospheric Pressure-Temperature Programmed Reduction (AP-TPR) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The soluble products contain much more sulphur than the insoluble products of oxidation. The products obtained from the reaction with HNO₃ contain higher amounts of inorganic sulphur compounds, while those obtained from the reaction with PAA are characterised by an increased content of organic sulphur species.     

2,3‐Difluoro‐4‐formyl­phenyl­boronic acid

The mol­ecule of the title compound, 2,3‐F₂‐4‐(CHO)C₆H₂B(OH)₂ or C₇H₅BF₂O₃, contains a formyl group coplanar with the benzene ring. The boronic acid group is twisted with respect to the benzene ring plane. The mol­ecules are organized into infinite chains via inter­molecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. These chains are additionally connected via strong O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, producing a folded layer structure perpendicular to the a axis. These layers are paired due to B⋯F inter­actions.
