A method has been developed for the synthesis of 4-amino-substituted 7-benzyl-2-morpholin-4-yl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidines by condensation of ethyl 1-benzyl-3-oxopiperidine-4-carboxylate with morpholine-4-carboxamidine and subsequent reaction of the 7-benzyl-2-morpholin-4-yl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3H-pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride and secondary amines. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 762–768, May, 2007.     

2-Benzopyrylium salts. 29. A new approach to the synthesis of the natural alkaloid salsolidine using 2-benzopyrylium salts

The reaction of 6,7-dimethoxy-1-methyl-2-benzopyrylium salt with ammonia forms the corresponding isoquinoline, and its reaction with methylamine and benzylamine forms mixtures of the corresponding isoquinolinium salts and naphthylamines. The reduction of 2-benzyl-1-methyl-6,7-dimethoxyisoquinolinium perchlorate with sodium tetrahydroborate has given the corresponding tetrahydroisoquinoline, the hydrogenolysis of which has led to salsolidine. The products have been characterized by elementary analyses and IR and PMR spectroscopy.     

Stereochemistry of the formation of 2-alkyl-4,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborinanes

It is demonstrated with the help of¹H and¹³C NMR spectroscopy and GLC that the formation of the stereoisomers of 2-alkyl-4,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborinanes from 2-methyl-1,3-butanediol and acyclic boric acid esters occurs stereospecifically. This conclusion was confirmed by calculations of the optimal geometries and relative energies of the molecules of thecis-andtrans-isomers of model 4,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborinanes and the proposed intermediate with a tetravalent boron atom using the method of molecular mechanics.A.

Effect of intramolecular rotational reorganization of reagents on the ratio between free energies of activation and reaction

Conclusions The relationship between the free energies of activation G and reaction G_o for proton transfer processes have been analyzed, taking into account the effect of hindered rotation of the reagents. We have shown that the considered effect can considerably affect the shape of the G=f(G_o) curve.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 77–81, January 1989.     

Spectral methods in arithmetic problems

Combining ideas of convolution due to Rankin with spectral considerations of Selberg, the author proposes a new approach to obtaining mean values for certain number-theoretic functions f(n). This approach is illustrated for the examples of functions f(n)=(Mn²+N),(n)(Mn+N), where (n) is the number of divisors of n.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Modification of catalytic properties of silica-supported rhodium

A sharp change in the catalytic properties of rhodium in benzene hydrogenation, propane hydrogenolysis and n-hexane conversion has been found for catalysts prepared via interaction between Rh(CO)₂Cl₂ and silica modified by Sn, Pb, Mo and W ions.

Platinum(IV)-mediated nitrile-sulfimide coupling: a route to heterodiazadienes

Pt(IV)-mediated addition of the sulfimide Ph2S = NH and the mixed sulfide/sulfimides o- and p-[PhS(=NH)](PhS)-C6H4 by the S=NH group to the metal-bound nitriles in the platinum(IV) complexes [PtCl4(RCN)2] proceeds smoothly at room temperature in CH2Cl2 and results in the formation of the heterodiazadiene compounds [PtCl4[NH=C(R)N=SR'Ph]2] (R' = Ph, R = Me, Et, CH2Ph, Ph; R' = o- and p-(PhS)C6H4; R = Et). While trans-[PtCl4(RCN)2] (R = Et, CH2Ph, Ph) reacting with Ph2S=NH leads exclusively to trans-[PtCl4[NH=C(R)N=SPh2]2], cis/trans-[PtCl4(MeCN)2] leads to cis/trans mixtures of [PtCl4[NH=C(Me)N=SPh2]2] and the latter have been separated by column chromatography. Theoretical calculations at both HF/HF and MP2//HF levels for the cis and trans isomers of [PtCl4[NH=C(Me)N=SMe2]2] indicate a higher stability for the latter. Compounds trans-[PtCl4[E-NH=C(R)N=SPh2]2] (R = Me, Et) and cis-[PtCl4[E-NH=C(Me)N=SPh2][Z-NH=C(Me)N=SPh2]] have been characterized by X-ray crystallography. The complexes [PtCl4[NH=C(R)N=SPh2]2] undergo hydrolysis when treated with HCl in nondried CH2Cl2 to achieve the amidines [PtCl4[NH=C(NH2)R]2] the compound with R = Et has been structurally characterized) and Ph2SO. The heterodiazadiene ligands, formed upon Pt(IV)-mediated RCN/sulfimide coupling, can be liberated from their platinum(IV) complexes [PtCl4[NH=C(R)N=SR'Ph]2] by reaction with Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2 (dppe) giving free NH=C(R)=SR'Ph and the dppe oxides, which constitutes a novel route for such rare types of heterodiazadienes whose number has also been extended. The hybrid sulfide/sulfimide species o- and p-[PhS(=NH)](PhS)C6H4 also react with the Pt(II) nitrile complex [PtCl2(MeCN)2] but the coupling--in contrast to the Pt(IV) species--gives the chelates [PtCl2[M-I=C(Me)N=S(Ph)C6H4SPh]]. The X-ray crystal structure of [PtCl2[M-I=C(Me)N=S(Ph)C6H4SPh-o]] reveals the bond parameters within the metallacycle and shows an unusual close interaction of the sulfide sulfur atom with the platinum.
