Imidazoline ring cleavage in 1,3,6,10-tetraazatetracyclo-[7.3.1.02,7.06,13]trideca-4, 11-dienes,leading to the formation of diquinoxalino[1,2-a∶2′,3′-d]pyrrole derivatives

Dibenzo[d,k]-1,3,6,10-tetraazatetracyclo[7.3.1.0^2,7.0^6,13]trideca-4,11-dienes undergo addition reactions at the C₍₂₎ carbon atom with alcohols and thiols, accompanied by cleavage of the C-N bond of the imidazoline ring, to generate diquinoxalino[1,2-a2,3-d]pyrrole derivatives.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 513–522, April, 1987.     

Reaction gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. 2—the use of catalytic on-line dehydrogenation for the investigation of alcohols by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry

A method for structure determination of aliphatic alcohols within mixtures is described. It involves the use of a vapour phase dehydrogenation micro-reactor (Cu, 300°C) located between the chromatographic column and the mass spectrometer or between the injection port and the column. Since primary and secondary alcohols are converted into corresponding carbonyl compounds, they can be readily differentiated from tertiary alcohols and dialkyl ethers. An examination of the mass spectra of alcohols and carbonyl compounds permits the determination of molecular mass, the location of hydroxyl group and the determination of branching at the β-carbon atom.     

Quantum-chemical investigation of the protonated forms of 2-(2-furyl)pyrrole

The electron and conformational structures, as well as the internal rotation, of 2-(2-furyl)pyrrole and its -protonated forms were studied by the MNDO method with complete optimization of the geometry. In conformity with the experiments (PMR), the two delocalized cations with a cis orientation of the heteroatoms that are formed as a result of protonation of the pyrrole or furan ring have the greatest and virtually equal stabilities (H=738.7 and 740.6 kJ/mole).Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 746–753, June, 1991.     

Fluoroaliphatic esters of fluorosulfonic acid. 4. Reactions of α-fluorosulfatoperfluoro ketones with nucleophilic reagents

-Fluorosulfatoperfluoroethyl isopropyl ketone I and fluorosulfatopentafluoroacetone II react with alkali metal chlorides and bromides to form the corresponding -haloperfluoro ketones as a result of direct nucleophilic substitution.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 9, pp. 2066–2069, September, 1990.
