The Absolute Configuration of 1-Methylindane

It is shown unequivocally by chemical correlations (cf. Schemes 1--3) and Raman optical activity spectra (cf. Fig. 1 and 2) that the (R)-configuration has to be attributed to (+)-1-methylindane ((+)- 1 ). This is in contradiction to an earlier assignment of the (R)-configuration to (?)- 1 [2] which was based on the (R)-configuration of (+)-indane-1-carboxylic acid ( 3 ) [11].     

Molekulargewichtsbestimmung durch Gelchromatographie von Oligoimidophosphorsäureamiden

Determination of Molecular Weights by Gel Chromatography of Oligoimidoamides of Phosphoric Acid. Oligoimidoamides of phosphoric acid were eluted with nonionic water on a Sephadex LH-20 column. The measured distribution coefficient of the oligoimidoamides of phosphoric acid was independent of sample concentration and pH of the eluent. Andrews equation was obeyed: a linear relation exist between elution volume and logarithm of molecular weight both cyclic and acyclic oligoimidoamides of phosphoric acid.     

Nucleophilic substitution and ring closure reactions of 4-chloro-3-nitro-2-quinolones

4-Chloro-3-nitro-2-quinolones 3 obtained from the 4-hydroxy quinolones 1 by nitration and chlorination, reacted with sodium azide to the 4-azido derivatives 4 which cyclized on thermolysis to yield the furoxanes 5 . Nucleophilic substitution reactions of 3 led to the 4-amino-, 4-fluoro- and 4-alkoxy-3-nitroquinolones 7, 8 and 9 , respectively. With thiols either 4-thio-3-nitro- 10 or 3,4-dithioquinolones 11 were obtained depending on the basic catalyst.

Influence of the three-dimensional heterogeneous roughness on electrokinetic transport in microchannels

Surface roughness has been considered as a passive means of enhancing species mixing in electroosmotic flow through microfluidic systems. It is highly desirable to understand the synergetic effect of three-dimensional (3D) roughness and surface heterogeneity on the electrokinetic flow through microchannels. In this study, we developed a three-dimensional finite-volume-based numerical model to simulate electroosmotic transport in a slit microchannel (formed between two parallel plates) with numerous heterogeneous prismatic roughness elements arranged symmetrically and asymmetrically on the microchannel walls. We consider that all 3D prismatic rough elements have the same surface charge or zeta potential, the substrate (the microchannel wall) surface has a different zeta potential. The results showed that the rough channel's geometry and the electroosmotic mobility ratio of the roughness elements' surface to that of the substrate, epsilon(mu), have a dramatic influence on the induced-pressure field, the electroosmotic flow patterns, and the electroosmotic flow rate in the heterogeneous rough microchannels. The associated sample-species transport presents a tidal-wave-like concentration field at the intersection between four neighboring rough elements under low epsilon(mu) values and has a concentration field similar to that of the smooth channels under high epsilon(mu) values.     

Sorptionseffekte an Eisen(III)-hydroxid-F?llungen

Zusammenfassung Um Material zur Deutung des Mechanismus der Sorption von Sr²⁺-Ionen an Eisen(III)-hydroxid zu gewinnen, werden Meßreihen mitgeteilt, in denen die pH-Abhängigkeit der Sorption sowie deren Beeinflussung bei Fällung mit verschiedenen Basen (NaOH, Ammoniak, Trimethylamin, Benzylamin) untersucht wird. Aus den charakteristischen Unterschieden der Sorptionskurven muß gefolgert werden, daß die Art der Base für die Sorption eine wichtige Rolle spielt.

Summary The sorption of Sr²⁺ ions on iron(III) hydroxide was studied as a function of the pH, of the precipitating reagent (NaOH, ammonium hydroxide, benzylamine, trimethylamine), of the temperature and of the total concentration.The curves of the relative sorption vs. pH are found to show characteristic differences which have to be explained in a detailed theory of the mechanism.

     

Application of divergent multi-component reactions in the synthesis of a library of peptidomimetics based on γ-amino-α,β-cyclopropyl acids

The multi-component condensation of organozirconocene, aldimine and zinc carbenoid was applied to the stereoselective synthesis of cyclopropane amino acid derivatives. These compounds served as scaffolds for the preparation of a 46-member library. The C- and N-termini of the cyclopropane amino acid derivatives were diversified by condensations with ten amines and ten acylating agents, respectively. To improve yields and accelerate library synthesis, most products were prepared under microwave irradiation and purified by polymer-bound scavengers and SPE methodology. All compounds were analyzed by LC-MS and a representative selection was fully characterized.

The uncatalyzed 1,4-addition of phenylmagnesium bromide and furylmagnesium iodide to methyl 5-methoxy-1,5-cyclohexadienylcarboxylate ($\text{1}$), directly followed by alkylation and hydrolysis leads to the corresponding cyclohexanones of type $\text{2}$ (R₁ and R₂ trans) in moderate to high yield.     

Darstellung und Eigenschaften von Chromtricarbonyl-Komplexen strukturisomerer Borazin-Derivate

The new hexaalkylborazine chromium tricarbonyls (n-Pr)₃B₃N₃Me₃Cr(CO)₃ (V), Me₃B₃N₃(n-Pr)₃Cr(CO)₃ (VI), (i-Pr)₃B₃N₃Me₃Cr(CO)₃ (VII) and Me₃B₃N₃(i-Pr)₃Cr(CO)₃ (VIII) have been prepared from fac-Cr(CO)₃(MeCN)₃ and the corresponding borazine in dioxane or without solvent. They are much more labile than the isomeric complex Et₃B₃N₃Et₃Cr(CO)₃ (IV) which can be readily obtained from Et₃B₃N₃Me₃Cr(CO)₃ and Et₃B₃N₃Et₃ by ring ligand exchange. The NMR., IR., UV. and Mass spectroscopic data of the complexes IV–VIII will be briefly discussed. The preparation of the borazine derivatives (n-Pr)₃B₃N₃Me₃ (IX) and Me₃B₃N₃(n-Pr)₃ (X) is also reported.     

Zur Berechnung des Polykondensationsgleichgewichtes der KieselsÄuren

Zusammenfassung Die in einer früheren Arbeit gemachte Annahme, da\ ein echtes thermodynamisches Gleichgewicht zwischen den einzelnen Kondensationsstufen der Kiesels?ure existiert, wird im Hinblick auf die theoretischen Konsequenzen für die insgesamt im Gleichgewicht in L?sung zu findende Kiesels?uremenge untersucht. Es wird für p_H < 12 eine Formel für die „Gesamtl?slichkeit der Kiesels?ure“ entwickelt, die unter plausiblen Annahmen gut mit bisher vorliegenden experimentellen Erfahrungen in übereinstimmung gebracht werden kann.
