Acyloxyalkylidènephosphoranes—II : Etude des ω-acyloxy n-butylidènetriphénylphosphoranes. Nouvelle voie d'accès aux dihydro-3,4 2h-pyrannes

ω-Acyloxy n-butylidenetriphenylphosphoranes give α-acyl n-butylidenetriphenylphosphoranes by intermolecular condensation in t-BuOH, and 3,4-dihydro-(2H)-pyrans by intramolecular condensation in toluene. The α-acyl n-butylidene phosphoranes, which are the tautomeric form of α-acyloxaphosphanes, do not lead to cyclobutylketones but to dihydropyrans.     

Complexes acetyleniques de titane(II). Reactivite vis-a-vis de l'hydrogene moleculaire: Une nouvelle approche du titanocene

¹³C NMR measurements were performed on [Re₃(μ-H)₃(CO)₁₀]^2? at various temperatures and field strengths. Selective decoupling allowed assignments of the carbonyl resonances. Spin-lattice relaxation time measurements indicated that two mechanisms, scalar coupling and chemical shielding anisotropy, contribute to the relaxation of carbon-13. Variable temperature experiments revealed that more than one mechanism is responsible for the fluxional behaviour.     

Thermogravimetric analysis of poly(alkyl methacrylates) and poly(methylmethacrylate-g-dimethyl siloxane) graft copolymers

The thermal stabilities of various poly(alkyl methacrylate) homopolymers and poly(methyl methacrylate-g-dimethyl siloxane) (PMMA-g-PSX) graft copolymers have been determined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). As expected, the thermal stabilities of poly(alkyl methacrylates) were a function of the ester alkyl group, and polymerization mechanism. In particular, thermally labile linkages, which result from termination during free radical or nonliving polymerization mechanisms, decrease the ultimate thermal stabilities of the polymers. However, graft copolymers, which were prepared by the macromonomer technique with free radical initiators, exhibited enhanced thermal stability compared to homopolymer controls. A more complex free radical polymerization mechanism for the macromonomer modified polymerization may account for this result. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Composition and major odorous compounds of the essential oil of Bifora radians,an aldehyde-producing weed

The composition of the essential oil of Bifora radians, an aldehyde-producing weed, has been investigated by capillary gas chromatography, coupled gas chromatography – mass spectrometry, on-line catalytic hydrogenation and coupled gas chromatography – infrared spectrometry. The nineteen compounds identified included eighteen aldehydes: seven alkanals (C6, C9, C10, C11, C12, C13, and C14), ten alkenals, including five (E)-2-alkenals (C12, C13, C14, C15, and C16), and one (E,E)-2,4-alkadienal (C13). Typical Bifora odors were attributed to three major (E)-2-alkenals, C12, C13, and C14.     

Efficient syntheses of imidazolo[1,2-a]pyridines and -[2, 1-a]isoquinolines

2-Aminopyridines 1a-c and 1-aminoisoquinoline with 1-chloromethylbenzotriazole give 2-amino-1-[alpha-benzotriazol-1-ylmethyl]pyridinium chlorides 2a-c and 1-amino-2-(alpha-benzotriazol-1-ylmethyl)isoquinolinium++ + chloride 12, respectively. Compounds 2a-c and 12 react with aryl aldehydes 3a-h to afford imidazolo[1,2-a]pyridines 7a-k and imidazolo[2, 1-a]isoquinolines 13a,b in good yields.     

Convenient syntheses of "heavy fluorous" cyclopentadienes and cyclopentadienyl complexes with three to five ponytails

Reactions of (eta5-C5H(5-x)Brx)M(CO)3(M = Re, Mn; x= 1, 3, 4, 5) and IZn(CH2)2R(f8) in the presence of Cl2PdL2 catalysts give the title complexes (eta5)-C5H(5-x)(CH2)2R(f8)x)M(CO3), accompanied in the case of x= 5 by hydride-transfer byproducts. Extremely high fluorophilicities are realized, and the cyclopentadienyl ligands are readily detached (hnu) from the manganese complexes.     

Determination of Partial Molar Volumes of EPA and DHA Ethyl Esters in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

The use of supercritical fluids (SCFs) as solvents has been attracting widespread interest in the research and commercial applications. The study of partial molar volumes of solutes at infinite dilution in the near-critical region is of considerable fundamental importance, as these data reflects the interactions occurring between the solute and the solvent. Experimental measurements of partial molar volumes may be divided into two categories: direct and indirect methods. The direct methods…     

Consequence of boar edible tissue consumption on urinary profiles of nandrolone metabolites. II. Identification and quantification of 19-norsteroids responsible for 19-norandrosterone and 19-noretiocholanolone excretion in human urine

In previous work (Le Bizec et al., Rapid Commun. Mass Spectrom. 2000; 14: 1058), it was demonstrated that a boar meal intake could lead to possible false accusations of abuse of 17beta-nortestosterone in antidoping control. The aim of the present study was to identify and quantify endogenous 19-norsteroids in boar edible tissue at concentrations that can alter the steroid urinary profile in humans, and lead to excretion of 19-norandrosterone (19-NA) and 19-noretiocholanolone (19-NE). The samples were analysed in two laboratories. The methodologies used for extraction and detection (GC/MS(EI) and LC/MS/MS(APCI+)) are compared and discussed. 19-Norandrostenedione (NAED), 17beta- and 17alpha-nortestosterone (bNT, aNT), and 17beta- and 17alpha-testosterone (bT, aT) were quantified. The largest concentrations of NAED and bNT were observed in testicles (83 and 172 microg/kg), liver (17 and 63 microg/kg) and kidney (45 and 38 microg/kg). A correlation between the bNT and NAED content of a typical meal prepared with boar parts and the excreted concentrations of 19-NA and 19-NE in human urine was demonstrated.
