Investigations of aromatic polyesters with polynaphthalene systems in the main chain—VI: NMR studies of the structure of the aromatic copolyesters

Nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of several kinds of terephthalic copolyesters of 4,4′dihydroxydinaphthyl 1,1′ and 2,2 bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) propane were recorded. Proton signals of the terephthalic acid unit corresponding to heterolinkages and homolinkages could be observed in the range from 8.23 to 8.53 ppm. The average sequence lengths and the degrees of randomness in the copolyesters were calculated from the intensities of these signals.     

The synthesis of 8‐hydroxyquinazoline derivatives and their acid‐base interactions

The reaction of N‐(2‐R¹‐oxyphenyl)benzimidoyl chlorides with cyanamide derivatives in the presence of titanium tetrachloride as a catalyst has yielded some new 4‐amino‐8‐R¹‐oxy‐2‐phenylquinazolines. pK_a values have been determined for these compounds and the influence of substituents at the basicity of the parent system has been discussed. Some investigations on the methyl‐quinazolinyl ether cleavage in different medium have been done yielding the appropriate hydroxyquinazoline derivatives. In those cases when the deprotection of 4‐amino‐8‐methoxy‐2‐phenylquinazoline was carried in aqueous acidic solutions, the formation of the hydrolysis products 3,4‐dihydro‐2‐phenyl‐4‐quinazolone derivatives was observed as well.     

The analysis of the zero-order and the second derivative spectra of retinol acetate, tocopherol acetate and coenzyme Q10 and estimation of their analytical usefulness for their simultaneous determination in synthetic mixtures and pharmaceuticals

The aim of the present work was to develop a simple and rapid method of retinol acetate, tocopherol acetate and coenzyme Q(10) determination in pharmaceuticals without involving any preparation operations like separation or masking. The values of second derivative amplitude at 212 nm for tocopherol, 351 nm for retinol and 222 nm for coenzyme were used for construction of calibration graphs. Beer's law is obeyed in the concentration range 0.5-20, 0.5-7.5 and 0.5-30 microg ml(-1) for retinol acetate, tocopherol acetate and coenzyme, respectively. The elaborated procedures were successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of studied compounds in their binary synthetic mixtures and in commercial preparations with high reliability and repeatability. Spectral properties of retinol acetate allows to determine its contents in ternary mixture which includes Vitamin E and coenzyme Q(10).     

Application of organolithium and related reagents in synthesis,Part XII. Synthesis of phenyl- and pyridylpyridopyridazinones and their derivatives

Summary The preparation of the pyridazinones10a,10b,11a,11b, and12a,12b from the ketoamides7,8, and9 and hydrazine hydrate is described. It was found that from ketoamides8b and9b in addition to the expected pyridopyridazinones11b and12b also aminopyridopyridazines14 and15 were formed and that ketoamide7b gave exclusively aminopyridopyridazine13. The pyridopyridazinones10b,11b, and12b were alkylated with alkyl iodides.

Crystal structures and magnetic properties of two low-dimensional materials constructed from [Mn(III)(salen)H2O]+ and [M(CN)8](3-/4-) (M = Mo or W) precursors

The syntheses, X-ray structures, and magnetic behaviors of two new cyano-bridged assemblies, the molecular [Mn(III)(salen)H2O]3[W(V)(CN)8].H2O (1) and one-dimensional [Mn(salen)(H2O)2]2[[Mn(salen)(H2O)][Mn(salen)]2[Mo(CN)(8)]].0.5ClO4.0.5OH.4.5H2O (2), are presented. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, has space group P2(1)/c, and has unit cell constants a = 13.7210(2) A, b = 20.6840(4) A, c = 20.6370(2) A, and Z = 4. Compound 2 crystallizes in the triclinic system, has space group P, and has unit cell dimensions a = 18.428(4) A, b = 18.521(3) A, c = 18.567(4) A, and Z = 2. The structure of 1 consists of the asymmetric V-shaped Mn-NC-W-NC-Mn-O(phenolate)-Mn molecules, where W(V) coordinates with [Mn(salen)H2O] and singly phenolate-bridged [Mn(salen)H2O]2 moieties through the neighboring cyano bridges. The [W(V)(CN)8]3- ion displays distorted square-antiprism geometry. The structure of 2 consists of the cyano-bridged [Mn3(III)Mo(IV)]n- repeating units linked by double phenolate bridges into one-dimensional zigzag chains. The Mn(III) centers are bound to Mo(IV) of square-antiprism geometry through the neighboring cyano bridges. The magnetic studies of 1 reveal the antiferromagnetic intramolecular interactions through the CN and phenolate bridges and the relatively weak intermolecular interactions. Compound 1 becomes antiferromagnetically ordered below TN = 4.6 K. The presence of the magnetic anisotropy is documented with the MH measurements carried out for both polycrystalline and single-crystal samples. At T = 1.9 K, the spin-flop transition is observed in the field of 18 kOe applied parallel to the bc plane, which is the easy plane of magnetization. Field dependence of magnetization of 1 shows field-induced metamagnetic behavior from the antiferromagnetic ground state of ST = 3/2 to the state of ST = 5/2. The magnetic properties of 2 indicate a weak antiferromagnetic interaction between Mn(III) centers in double-phenolate-bridged [Mn(III)(salen)]2 dinuclear subunits and a very weak ferromagnetic interaction between them through the diamagnetic [Mo(IV)(CN)8]4- spacer.     

Multipeak distributions of first passage times in bistable dynamics in a model of a thermochemical system.

A master equation is used to study transitions between the stable limit cycle and stable focus in the two-variable bistable system. The distribution function of the mean first passage time between these attractors and the relative dispersion of the mean first return time from the stable focus to itself as a function of the intensity of fluctuations are calculated and discussed. A coherence resonance is observed for the return time from the focus to itself.     

The complexes of tetramethylresorc[4]arene with amines. Effect of the amine concentration on the complex composition

The complexation of tetramethylresorc[4]arene with primary and secondary amines in acetonitrile was investigated spectrophotometrically. The stoichiometry of the complexes formed was shown to depend on the amine concentration. Based on the proposed complexation models, the formation constants of the complexes as well as their thermodynamical parameters were determined and discussed. Depending on the amine concentration, two types of solid complexes of tetramethylresorc[4]arene with amines were obtained. The composition of these complexes was confirmed by ¹H NMR.     

Free-electron attachment to coronene and corannulene in the gas phase

Electron attachment to the polyaromatic hydrocarbons coronene and corannulene is studied in the electron energy range of about 0-14 eV using a high-resolution crossed electron-neutral beam setup. The major anions observed are the parent anions peaking at about 0 eV with cross sections of 3.8 x 10(-20) and 1 x 10(-19) m(2), respectively. The only fragment anions formed in coronene and corannulene are the dehydrogenated coronene and corannulene anions. Other anions observed in the negative mass spectra at about 0 eV can be ascribed to impurities of the sample. High-level quantum-mechanical studies are carried out for the determination of electron affinities, hydrogen binding energies, and structures of both molecules. The behavior of coronene and corannulene upon electron attachment is compared with that of other polyaromatic hydrocarbons studied previously.

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.
