Beiträge zur Gewinnung von Hirudin,der Wirksubstanz des medizinischen Blutegels (Hirudo medicinalis L.)

Zusammenfassung Bei den vorliegenden Untersuchungen wurde Hirudin, die blutgerinnunghemmende Wirksubstanz von Hirudo medicinalis L., dadurch gewonnen, daß man Blutegel physiologische Kochsalzlösung, mit oder ohne Zusatz von roten Blutkörperchen, saugen ließ und den Darminhalt künstlich entnahm. Außer dem Darminhalt enthält auch die Futterrestlösung Hirudin, wodurch bewiesen wurde, daß der Egel diesen Wirkstoff auch in die Bißwunde abgibt. Das angereicherte Rohhirudin wurde auf seine gerinnunghemmende Wirkung mit Kaninchenblut und Pferdeblut getestet und seine Antithrombinwirkung, Wirkung auf die Rekalzifikationszeit, Prothrombinzeit und Thrombingerinnungszeit von Oxalatplasma untersucht. Die Untersuchungen zeigen, daß die II. Phase der Blutgerinnung beeinflußt wird. Der Temperatureinfluß (100°, 70° und 37°) auf Lösungen der Wirksubstanz wurde untersucht, ebenso die Wirkung angereicherter Rohprodukte auf das lebende Kaninchen. Bei wiederholter Injektion trat kein anaphylaktischer Schock auf.Die Reinigung des angereicherten Rohproduktes durch Papierelektrophorese wird beschrieben.Herrn Prof. Dr.A. Wacek zum 60.

A new method for the synthesis of CF3-containing aminovinyl ketones

A new method for the synthesis of aminovinyl trifluoromethyl ketones was developed. The method is based on the reactions of 4-sulfonyl-1,1,1-trifluorobut-3-ene-2,2-diols with various alkyl-, aryl-, dialkyl-, and alkylarylamines. The stereochemistry of the compounds obtained was studied.     

Mass spectrometric study of the pyrolysis of perfluorinated compounds of composition C6F12-C9F20, containing perfluoroisopropyl groups

The primary and final products arising from the pyrolysis of perfluoro-2,4-dimethyl-3-ethylpentane, perfluoro-3-isopropyl-4-methyl-2-pentene, perfluoro-2-methyl-3-isopropyl-2-pentene, perfluoro-2,4-dimethyl-3-heptene, and perfluoro-4-methyl-2-pentene have been studied using low-energy mass spectrometry and chromatography-mass spectrometry. Thermal decomposition of hexafluoropropene oligomers, containing perfluoroisopropyl groups attached to a double bond, occurs via loss of a radical pair to form perfluorodienes, as well as via abstraction of a hexafluoropropene molecule from the iso-C₃F₇ group. A correlation between the principal fragmentation pathway observed under electron impact and the primary process in the main thermolysis pathway was detected only in the case of perfluoro-4-methyl-2-pentene and perfluoro-2,4-dimethyl-3-heptene, which are capable of cleavage of^.CF₃ and^.C₂F₅ radicals, respectively, to give a single possible allyl radical structure.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 1037–1041, May, 1990.     

NMR investigation of the solubility of some lubricants in rigid and in impact modified PVC

The solubility behaviour of two paraffin-waxes and two monoglyceride-esters normally used as lubricants in PVC-formulations have been studied with wide-line NMR for rigid and for impact modified PVC. It has been shown that the investigated lubricants have limited solubility in PVC. In the impact modified product, the monoglyceride-esters are partly dissolved in the elastomer phase and partly in the PVC-phase. The paraffin-waxes have limited solubility in the elastomer and in the PVC-phases, and a considerable amount forms a separate phase.     

Acidity and activity of H-mordenite in m-xylene isomerization

The dependence of the activity of H-mordenites prepared from a natural mordenite on the nature and strength of the acid groups present was studied. The superior catalytic activity and stability of the H(Ag)–MOR zeolite compared with other H-forms is explained on the basis of NH₃ adsorption and IR measurements.

Molecular structures of acetylene derivatives of tin: Part IV. Gas-phase electron-diffraction study of tetraethynyltin,Sn(CCH)4, and triethynyltin iodide,ISn(CCH)3

The geometrical parameters of tetraethynyltin and triethynyltin iodide have been determined by gas-phase electron diffraction. Triethynyltin iodide was present as an admixture in both the tetraethynyltin samples studied. Because the samples differed significantly in percentage of the iodide (17.4 ± 4.0 and 47.1 ± 3.5 mol %, in samples A and B, respectively), it was possible to determine the structures of both molecules to a sufficient degree of accuracy.The r_α, structures were solved by the least-squares treatment of the molecular intensities, using mean amplitudes and shrinkage corrections calculated from the force fields of a number of tin derivatives.The T_d-symmetry model of Sn(CCH)₄ was refined to give the following parameters: Sn-C, 2.068(5); CC, 1.228(8); CH, 1.079(51). The structural parameters for ISn(CCH)₃ (on the basis of the C_3v model with linear Sn-CC-H fragments) are as follows: Sn-I, 2.646(4); Sn-C, 2.062(17); CC, 1.226(6); ∠ISnC 108.0(2.8). (The thermal average bond distances, r_g, are given in Å, and the valence angle, rα, in degrees; the values in paren- theses are three times the standard deviations, 3σ.)The Sn-C bonds in Sn(CCH)₄, and ISn(CCH)₃ are shorter than the corresponding bonds in the monoethynyltin derivatives, Me₃SnCCH and Me₃SnCCSnMe₃. The SnI bond in ISn(CCH)₃ is noticeably shorter than those in stannane iodide and trimethylstannane iodide.     

Orientational aspect of transient absorption in solutions

In picosecond spectroscopy transient absorption methods are utilized to measure ground-state repopulation kinetics. Since linearly polarized light pulses from mode-locked lasers are used, the transient absorption characteristics in solutions are governed by the rotational diffusion of the absorbing molecules, too. The theory for isotropic diffusion is given and compared to a measurement on the rhodamine 6G molecule dissolved in solvents of different viscosity using a novel pulse spectrophotometer.     

Preparation and oxidation of 3-methylene-, 3-Oxo- and 3-hydroxy-bicyclo[2,2,1]heptane-2, 6-carbolactones

3-methylenebicyclo[2,2,1]heptane-2,6-carbolactone (previously incorrectly claimed) has now been prepared and converted to the 3-oxo-lactone. Some 3-hydroxy-bicyclo-[2,2,1]heptane-2,6-carbolactones have been prepared and their rates of oxidation with chromic acid determined. The results do not support a theory about the mechanism of oxidation, involving a dipolar interaction from the lactone.     

Flow injection analysis for calcium in serum,water and waste waters by spectrophotometry and by ion-selective electrode

The Flow Injection technique is shown to provide fast, reliable and sensitive methods for the determination of calcium in various aqueous as well as serum samples; spectrophotometric or potentiometric detection can be used. At sampling rates of 100–110 samples per hour, with 30-μl sample injections, high reproducibility of measurement and low reagent consumption are achieved in both methods. In the spectrophotometric method, the analytical readout is available within 12 s after sample injection at a total reagent consumption of 0.75 ml per analysis. The potentiometric measurement of the calcium activity in serum is placed on a reliable basis by alternating measurements of serum samples and aqueous standards without incurring any non-reproducible changes in potential between aqueous and serum solutions. This permits the simultaneous determination of pH and pCa, the analytical readout being available within XXX s of sample injection. The good agreement between the results obtained with the Flow Injection method and those attained by atomic absorption and EDTA titrations as well as pCa stat-measurements show that the new methods are potentially suitable for routine analysis.     

Polarographic reduction of pyridinium ion in pyridine tetraethylammonium perchlorate as background electrolyte

Tetraethylammonium perchlorate, compared to lithium perchlorate as background electrolyte for the reduction of pyridinium ion in pyridine, is effective over a wider potential range, but is more difficult to obtain in a pure state; slight amounts of impurities do not, however, affect the pyridinium wave. The pyridinium wave produced in 0.1 M Et₄NClO₄ may occur at a more negative potential than the main pyridinium wave in 0.1 M LiClO₄, depending on the source of the pyridinium ion, but still appears to be due to a diffusion-controlled reduction, whose limiting current is linearly proportional to concentration; the prewave observed in LiCl0₄ background generally does not appear in Et₄NClO₄ background. Specific differences in the effect of Li(I), Na(I) and Et₄N(I) background cation appear to be due to electrocapillary phenomena and perhaps to the extent of solvation of the ions. The constancy of current for solutions containing acetic acid with added acetate, pyridinium nitrate with added nitrate, and benzoic acid with added benzoate indicate that the pyridinium reduction is independent of anion concentration.
