Single and double A3-coupling (aldehyde-amine-alkyne) reaction catalyzed by an air stable copper(I)-phosphole complex

An air stable copper(I)-phosphole complex, [CuCl{2,5-bis(2-thienyl)-1-phenylphosphole}₂] (1), was utilized as a catalyst in single and double A³-coupling reactions for preparing mono- and bi-propargylamines. A variety of aldehydes, amines and terminal alkynes were tested. Most of these reactions led to formation of the expected propargylamines in good yields using low amounts catalyst and obviating both the use of purified reagents as employ of a glovebox.     

Solvent- and metal-free selective oxidation of thiols to disulfides using I2/DMSO catalytic system

We describe herein a simple, fast and inexpensive protocol for the oxidative coupling of thiols employing a stoichiometric amount of DMSO and iodine as the catalyst. Various aromatic disulfides were obtained in good to excellent yields in short reaction times at room temperature, while aliphatic disulfides were achieved in good yields when the reactions were conducted under microwave irradiation.     

色谱柱分类数据库用于指导天然药物化学对照品色谱纯度测定时色谱柱理性选择

由于中药化学对照品多数来源于动植物药材,很容易混有结构类似物,故有机杂质测定是可能影响其化学对照品赋值准确性的关键风险因素。中药化学对照品的有机杂质测定通常采用药典收载或文献报道的高效液相色谱法,这些方法通常仅规定“以十八烷基硅烷键合硅胶为填充剂”,无适宜色谱柱的品牌信息,或者实验室无文献所用的色谱柱品牌,而目前市场上已有800多种品牌的C₁₈柱,生产工艺的不同导致不同品牌C₁₈柱的选择性有差异,甚至差异显著。这很容易出现由于色谱柱选择不适宜而导致测定结果不准确的风险。该文采用国外色谱柱分类数据库指导对照品纯度考察时色谱柱的理性选择,尽可能减少色谱柱盲选可能导致的纯度结果不准确的风险。首先,用数据库挑选2根选择性差异显著的色谱柱（选择性因子F≥6）进行平行实验,以尽可能反映采用不同品牌色谱柱可能出现的分离效果差异。如果这2根色谱柱的分离效果及纯度测定结果无显著性差异,则可以交叉验证该对照品纯度测定的准确性。否则需要从数据库中选择另外1根与之前试验中分离效果更好、选择性相似的色谱柱进行纯度结果验证。在N-反式-p-对香豆酰基酪胺和表儿茶素没食子酸酯首批对照品的纯度考察中,使用了上述策略并验证了其有效性和科学性,计划推广应用至更多的中药化学对照品,特别当其可能含碱性或弱酸性化合物时,更应该尝试采用本文推荐的色谱柱选择策略交叉验证其纯度测定结果的准确性。     

Optimized Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles by Factorial Design with Application for the Determination of Melamine in Milk

A colorimetric method based on silver nanoparticles was developed for the determination of melamine in milk. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized without any stabilizer, using sodium borohydride as the reducing agent. Optimization of the variables for the formation of the nanoparticles was performed by factorial design, resulting in stable colloidal silver nanoparticles with a mean diameter of 14.0?±?2.7?nm. Spectrophotometric measurements performed at 475?nm showed a linear range from 0.033 to 1.50?mg?L^?1 of melamine with limits of detection and quantification of 0.009 and 0.031?mg?L^?1, respectively. The method provided highly sensitive determination of melamine in milk.     

Kinetik und Mechanismus der Substitutionsreaktionen von Komplexverbindungen, 22. Mitt.: Neue Derivate der Bis-dimethylglyoximato-diselenocyanato-kobalt(III)-säure und die Kinetik der Aquotisierung des Komplexes

Zusammenfassung Es wurden 29 neue Komplexsalze der Säure: H[CoDim ₂ ^**(NCSe)₂] erhalten. Spektrophotometrische Messungen wurden im UV- und IR-Bereiche durchgeführt. Die Kinetik der Aquotisierung der [CoDim ₂(NCSe)₂]^–-Ionen wurde untersucht. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit den kinetischen Parametern der Aquotisierung der analogen [Co_{Dim 2} X ₂]^–-Ionen (mitX=Cl, Br, J, NCS) verglichen.

Analytische Aspekte der Oxydation organischer Stickstoffverbindungen mit Chromsäure. XXIII

Zusammenfassung Die früher beschriebene Halbmikromethode zur Bestimmung von Isonitrosogruppen in organischen Verbindungen wurde in den Mikromaßstab übergeführt. Sie beruht auf der Reaktion der Substanz mit Eisen(III)-sulfat in verd. Schwefelsäure. Dabei wird der Oximstickstoff als Distickstoffoxid frei, das mit Kupfer zu elementarem Stickstoff reduziert und im Mikroazotometer gemessen wird. Für die Berechnung des Oximstickstoffgehaltes aus den abgelesenen Gasvolumina wurden Werte für die konstante und proportionale Volumenkorrektur mit Hilfe der Methode der Regressionsgeraden experimentell festgestellt. Beide Werte sind den bei der N-N-Gruppenbestimmung benützten Volumenkorrekturen fast gleich. Die Bestimmung von Oximgruppen ist durch die Anwesenheit von Nitro- oder Aminogruppen nicht gestört. Diese Gruppen können aus derselben Einwaage durch nachfolgende Oxydation mit Chromsäure bestimmt werden.

Analytical aspects of the oxidation of organic nitrogen compounds with chromic acid. XXIII

Summary The semimicro method previously described for the determination of isonitroso groups in organic compounds has been converted to the microscale. It is based on the reaction of the material with iron(III)-sulfate in dilute sulfuric acid. The oxime nitrogen is thus liberated as dinitrogen oxide, which is reduced to elementary nitrogen by copper and measured in the mieroazotometer. To calculate the oxime nitrogen content from the read-off gas volume, values for the constant and proportional volume correction with the aid of the regression lines were established experimentally. Both values are almost equal in the case of the determination of the volume corrections employed in the determination of the N-N-groups. The presence of nitro-or amino groups does not interfere with the determination of oxime groups. These groups may be determined from the same sample by subsequent oxidation with chromic acid.

Recherches sur la structure électronique de composés soufrés (méthode L.C.A.O. améliorée)

Improved L.C.A.O. method primitively built for conjugated molecules holding only atoms of second row in the periodic classification is extended to molecules holding atoms of the third row. The application is done for thiophen, thioketones, SO₂ and SO₃. d orbitals are not introduced in this study. Discussion about results shows that d orbitals must be introduced when the sulphur atom is strongly positively charged like in sulphur oxides.
