2,2-Dioxo-1H-thieno[3,4-c][1,2]thiazines. Synthesis and some reactions of a new heterocycle

The first synthesis of substituted 2,2-dioxo-1-phenyl-1H-thieno[3,4-c][1,2]thiazines 2 and some of their reactions are achieved. Compounds 2 were prepared from the 3,5-dimethyl-1,1-dioxo-1,2-thiazine-4-carbaldehydes 1 by reaction with sulfur and triethyl amine in dimethylformamide under mild conditions. They were characterized spectroscopically and by X-ray structure analysis. The formylation, chlorination and oxidation of 2 are reported.     

Series representation for semistable laws and their domains of semistable attraction

If the centered and normalized partial sums of an i.i.d. sequence of random variables converge in distribution to a nondegenerate limit then we say that this sequence belongs to the domain of attraction of the necessarily stable limit. If we consider only the partial sums which terminate atk _n wherek _n+1 ck _n then the sequence belongs to the domain of semistable attraction of the necessarily semistable limit. In this paper, we consider the case where the limiting distribution is nonnormal. We obtain a series representation for the partial sums which converges almost surely. This representation is based on the order statistics, and utilizes the Poisson process. Almost sure convergence is a useful technical device, as we illustrate with a number of applications.This research was supported by a research scholarship from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG).     

Synthesis and absolute configuration of clemastine and its isomers (author's transl)]

Synthesis and Absolute Configuration of Clemastine and its Isomers. Condensation of 4-chloro-α-methylbenzhydrylalkohol ( 1 ) with 2-(2-chloroethyl)-1-methylpyrrolidine ( 2 ) gave an isomeric mixture of 2-[2-(p-chloro-α-methyl-=-phenylbenzyloxy)ethyl]-1-methylpyrrolidine ( 3 ) and 4-(p-chloro-=-phenylbenzyloxy)-1-methyl-hexahydroazepin ( 4 ). The separation of the four possible optically active isomers of 3 is described and their absolute configuration established by degradation to (R)- and (S)-1-methyl-2-pyrrolidineethanol ( 6 ), respectively, and by an X-ray cristallographic analysis of the quarternary methiodide of the isomer 3-A . Clemastine (3-A) is (+)-(2R)-2-[2-((αR)-(p-chloro-α-methyl-α-phenylbenzyloxy)ethyl)]-1-methylpyrrolidine.     

Untersuchungen zur thermischen Zersetzung von Boraten

In spite of numerous investigations the literature data on the thermal decomposition of borax are contradictory. On the basis of thermal, X-ray, gas analytical and optical investigations this fact can be attributed to the complex decomposition mechanism. After the release of about 8 mole water the reaction product is an X-ray amorphous phase, having the thermal behaviour of glass. From this glass sodium diborate (Na₂O.2B₂O₃) crystallizes between 500–600? with further mass loss. Sodium diborate decomposes from about 700? incongruently yielding NaBO₂ vapor and B₂O₃ glass phase. After evaporation of NaBO₂ is completed the rate of evaporation of B₂O₃ increases considerably.     

Triphenylphosphan-Nickel(0)-Komplexe mit Isocyanid-Liganden — [(RNC)nNi(PPh3)4–n] (n = 1–3)

Triphenylphosphane Nickel(0) Complexes with Isocyanide Ligands — [(RNC)_nNi(PPh₃)_4–n] (n = 1–3) Synthesis and properties of the isocyanide triphenylphosphane nickel(0) complexes [(RNC)Ni(PPh₃)₃], [(RNC)₂Ni(PPh₃)₂] and [(RNC)₃Ni(PPh₃)] (R = ^tBu, Cy, PhCH₂, p-TosCH₂) are described. I.r. and ³¹P n.m.r. spectra were recorded and the X-ray crystal structure of [(PhCH₂NC)₂Ni(PPh₃)₂] was determined.     

Synthesen von α,β-ungesättigten 2-(2-Oxo-benzazolin-3-yl)-3-hydroxy-dithio-carbonsäure-alkylestern und entsprechend substituierten Keten-S,S-acetalen sowie deren Kristall- und Molekülstruktur

Summary The new alkyl 2-(2-oxo-benzazoline-3-yl)-3-hydroxy dithiocrotonates and dithiocinnamates4 and the corresponding ketene dithioacetals2 and5 are obtained by dithiocarboxylation of the 3-acceptormethyl substituted benzazoline-2-ones1 or3. Alkylation at room temperature gives compounds4 whereas at higher alkylation temperature2 or5 are formed. The results of X-ray analyses performed for methyl 3-hydroxy-p-chloro-dithiocinnamate4d and of N-[1-(4-chloro-benzoyl)-2,2-bis(methylthio)-vinyl]-benzothiazoline-2-one5e are discussed.

     

The identification of nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in diesel particulate extracts and their potential formation as artifacts during particulate collection

Summary The highly complex matrix of diesel particulate extracts was analyzed for nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (nitro-PAH) using fused-silica capillary-column gas chromatography along with a thermionic nitrogen-phosphorus detector (TID) and high-performance liquid chromatography followed by on-line catalytic reduction of the nitro-PAH to amino-PAH and subsequent fluorescence detection. Positive isomer identification and quantitation of nitro-PAH are from retention times of authentic standards and their mass spectra. The ease of nitro-PAH formation by nitration of PAH raises the question regarding the origin of these species, whether they are produced as “native” products during the engine combustion process and/or in the exhaust, or instead, formed as the result of chemical conversion to produce artifacts during the sampling procedure. This problem is assessed examing 1-nitropyrene-concentration in particulates of three light-duty diesel engines for different sampling times. 1-Nitropyrene concentrations show only a moderate increase with sampling time under average sampling conditions.

Beiträge zur Komplexchemie der Phosphine und Phosphinoxide. XXIII. Schwermetallkomplexe des Tetramethyl-biphosphins

On the coordination chemistry of phosphines and phosphinoxides. XXIII. Heavy metal complexes of tetramethyl-biphosphine The reactions of tetramethyl-biphosphine with salts of 3d elements including Cd and Hg, too, in THF, benzene, acetonitrile and alcohols, respectively, results in forming complexes of differing compositions: (MⁿX_n)₂{(CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃}₂)₃? Mⁿ = Ti^III, V^III, Cr^III, Fe^II, Ni^II, Cu^I; MX₂{(CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃)₂}₂? M = Co^II, Ni^II, Hg^II; MX₂ · (CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃)₂? M = Fe^II, Ni^II, Zn, Cd, Hg^II; X = Cl, Br, J. The partly intensively coloured complexes have low solubilities; this item complicates the performing of structure determining methods. Partial informations about the structures of the complexes are to be gained by magnetic and spectrophotometric measurements and X-ray investigations. The tendency of (CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃)₂ to form complexes with transition metals differs from that of other biphosphines. Splitting of the P? P bond due to metal salts does not occur. (CH₃)₂P? P(CH₃)₂ acts as a monodentate or bidentate ligand, like other members of the R₂P? PR₂ series do too. The forming of ligand bridges seems to be favoured in comparison to the chelate function.
