Synthesis of xyluronic and riburonic acid derivatives

Various 3-O-acyl-pentofuranurononitrils were synthesized by acylating dehydration of 1,2-isopropylidene-d-xylo- andd-ribo-pentodialdo-furanose oximes, or pentofuranuronic acids via intermediates. Their reactions were investigated.

Über die Herstellung von Äther der enantio-14, 15-Dinorlabdan-Reihe aus Eperusäure

The Conversion of Eperuic Acid into Ethers of the enantio-14, 15-Dinorlabdane Series 5 and 6 are strongly odiferous substances of the ambra-type. Their enantiomers 7 and 8 , hitherto unknown, have been synthesized from eperuic acid (4) and their olfactory properties compared with those of 5 and 6 . 4 was esterified by CH₂N₂ and dehydrogenated with (C₆H₅Se)₂/H₂O₂ to the α,β-unsaturated ester 9 (61%). Oxidation by KMnO₄ in acetone yielded the ketone 3 (60%). Epoxidation followed by treatment with acid converted 3 into the acetals 7 (61%) and 8 (14%). 7 and 8 differ from 5 and 6 in odor intensity, and 6 and 8 show slightly different odor quality.     

Charge transfer efficiency in hybrid bulk heterojunction composites

On the basis of recently published electrochemical measurements, the charge transfer efficiency within CdSe nanocrystal/conducting polymer heterojunction composites was investigated by means of luminescence interaction strength. It was found that poly[2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] and poly-9-vinylcarbazole luminescence was not totally quenched by nanocrystals, whereas poly-3-octylthiophene and polyvinylpyrrolidone was completely quenched. In case of poly-3-hexylthiophene, the nanocrystal luminescence was quenched. The results are in complete agreement with the electrochemical findings and thus, the CdSe nanocrystal/Polyvinylpyrrolidone composite should be a promising material for electroluminescent devices.     

Photochemische Reaktionen. 107. Mitteilung. Zur Photochemie offenkettiger 2,6-bzw. 2,7-Dien-Carbonylverbindungen

The Photochemistry of Open-Chained 2,6- or 2,7-Dien-Carbonyl Compounds On ¹n, π*-excitation (λ > 347 nm) citral (5) and the methyl ketone 10 isomerize to compounds A (7, 19) and B (6, 20) , whereas the phenyl ketone 11 changes into the isomer 24 of type E. Evidence is given that the conversions to A and B may arise from the ³n, π*-state of the 2,6-diene-carbonyl compounds. On ¹n, π*-excitation (λ = 254 nm) 5 and 10 yield the isomers A (7, 19) and D (18, 22) , but no products of type B. Furthermore, conversion of 10 to the isomer 21 of type C is observed. Selective ¹n, π*-excitation (λ = 254 nm) as well as selective ¹n, π*-excitation (λ > 347 nm) of the 2,7-diene-carbonyl compounds 12 and 13 give rise to isomerization to the compounds F (25, 28) , exclusively. The intramolecular [2 + 2]-photocycloadditions are shown to be triplet processes. UV.-irradiation (λ > 280 nm) of compounds F (25, 28) furnishes the isomeric products G (26, 29) which photoisomerize to oxetanes of type H (27, 30).     

Simple diffuse reflectance UV-vis spectroscopic determination of organic pigments (fringelites) in fossils

To screen for organic pigments, like fringelites or porphyrins, in sediments and fossil specimen, a simple diffuse reflectance UV-vis spectroscopic determination was developed. In contrast to common inorganic pigments, like Fe₂O₃, these pigments exhibit well-structured characteristic absorption peaks which allow their recognition. This method was then used to identify fringelite H in a non-crinoidSolenopora species from the Jurassic. Reflectance FTIR spectroscopy proved not to be useful for this purpose.     

Chemischer Transport von Eisensulfid. II. Experimentelle Ergebnisse beim Transport von FeSx mit Jod

Chemical Transport of Iron Sulphide. II. Experimental Results on the Transport of FeS_x with Iodine It is possible to deposite monocrystals of iron sulphide FeS_x by means of CTR method using iodine as transport agent. The presence of sufficient, high sulfur partial pressures is the most important condition for the FeS_x being transported, in other words: x must be equal or greater than approximately 1.04. The transport velocity and the shape of the deposited crystals depend on temperature, amount of iodine, and composition of the original material. The expected differences between the composition of the deposited solid and that of the residue can be verified experimentally.     

3-Diethylamino-5-phenyl-1,2,4-diselenazolium-tetrachloroniccolat(II) — Synthese und Struktur

3-Diethylamino-5-phenyl-1,2,4-diselenazolium-tetrachloroniccolate(II) — Synthesis and Structure Bis-(N′, N′-diethyl-N-benzoylselenoureato)nickel(II) reacts with diphosgene in benzene to 3-diethylamino-5-phenyl-1,2,4-diselenazolium-tetrachloroniccolate(II). Its structure is confirmed by RKSA and ESCA. The compound consists of cations, which are planar fivemembered rings and of tetrahedral tetrachloroniccolate(II) anions. The complex is isomorphic with 3-diethylamino-5-phenyl-1,2,4-dithiazolium-tetrachloroniccolate(II).     

Oxydation von Allylalkoholen mit Blei(IV)-acetat

Lead tetraacetate (LTA) oxidation of the allylic alcohols 1, 10, 14 and 19 leads to the formation of the epoxides 2, 11, 15 and 20 , products of a novel internal addition reaction of the electron deficient alcohol oxygen to the allylic double bond. In some cases ( 10, 14 ) the formation of a new type of acetoxylated enolethers ( 12, 16 ) is observed. The LTA oxidation of the allylic dienols 21 and 29 gives rise to the formation of the epoxyacetates 25 and 33 , products of a similar internal addition reaction. Furthermore, a variety of cyclization products ( 22, 23, 24, 26, 30, 31, 32 and 34 ) has been isolated whose formation requires an isomerisation of the allylic trans double bond to a cis one.     

X‐ray investigations of bicyclic α‐methylene‐δ‐valerolactones. V. (4aS,7R,8aR)‐7‐Isopropenyl‐4a‐methyl‐3‐methyleneperhydrochromen‐2‐one

The title compound, C₁₄H₂₀O₂, adopts a conformation in which the δ‐valerolactone and cyclohexane rings are almost coplanar with one another. The γ‐methyl substituent occupies an axial position with respect to the cyclohexane ring. The δ‐valerolactone moiety adopts an envelope arrangement, while the cyclohexane ring exists in a chair conformation.     

RBS investigations of ion beam mixed hard coatings on tool steel

Silicon nitride hard coatings on tool steel produced by ion beam mixing following sputter or vapour deposition were investigated by RBS and Vickers microhardness measurements. Atomic mixing in the coating/steel interface region resulting in an improved adhesion and in a significant increase of the microhardness of the surface layers was found. Ion beam mixing with gas ions and high fluences leads to blistering of the implanted atoms in the silicon nitride layer.
