Synthesis of 2- and 4-Nitropyrimidines and 2-Nitro-sym-triazines by ozonization of hydroxyamino and nitroso derivatives

The action of ozone on aryl(methyl)-substituted 2- and 4-hydroxyamino- or -nitrosopyrimidines in chloroform gave 2- and 4-nitropyrimidines. The unambiguous character of the process depends on the molar ratio of the substrate and ozone; the side formation of azoxy-, chloro-, and hydroxypyrimidines is possible. 2-Nitro-sym-triazines were obtained by ozonization of substituted 2-hydroxyamino-sym-triazines.See [1, 2] for our preliminary communications.Deceased.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 657–661, May, 1990.     

PHOTOREACTIVITY OF 5-GERANOXYPSORALEN AND LACK OF PHOTOREACTION WITH DNA

5-Geranoxypsoralen, commonly called bergamottin, a major furocoumarin contained in bergamot oil, is reported in vitro as a highly photoreactive psoralen. In ethanol, it exhibits quite a high triplet state quantum yield (approximately 0.37). The triplet state is involved in subsequent photochemistry which depends on the initial concentration and on the presence of oxygen. In contrast to most psoralens, absorption and fluorescence data suggest that 5-geranoxypsoralen does not interact with DNA in the dark. No UVA-induced interstrand cross-links in DNA were shown.     

The First Principles Investigations of the Thermoelectric Properties of GaN with p- and n-Type Doping

We investigate the thermoelectric properties of GaN with p-and n-type doping by the first principles calculation and the semi-classical Boltzmann theory. We find that the power factors (S2σof p-type GaN (-3500 W/mK2) is about twice that of the n-type (-1750 W/mK2), which indicates the thermoelectric properties of p-type GaN would be better. Thermal conductivity of GaN crystal decreases rapidly as the temperature increases, but it is still too large for thermoelectric applications. The figure of merit (ZT) estimated at 1500 K is 0.134 for p-type GaN crystal and 0.062 for the n-type.     

Synthesis and Properties of Cadmium-containing Quinolinium and Pyrilium Salts

Consecutive treatment of methyl-substituted quinolinium and 2,6-diarylpyrilium perchlorates with sodium ethylate and equimolar amount of anhydrous cadmium(II) trifluoroacetate gives 2- and 4-methylenecadmium-containing salts of the above heterocyclic cations in 80-97% yields. The reactions of the cadmium-containing quinolinium and pyrilium salts with hydrochloric acid, acetic anhydride, mercuric trifluoroacetate, SnCl₂, and nickel(II) trifluoroacetate, resulting in substitution of the CdOCOCF₃ group by hydrogen, Ac, HgOCOCF₃, SnCl, and NiOCOCF₃, respectively, were studied.     

QCD PERTURBATION THEORY AND NUCLEI (1) THE ENERGY SHIFTS OF HADRENS AND HADRONS MASS DIFFERENCE MASS DIFFERENCE

QCD perturbation theory for confined quarks and gluons (inhadrons) is discussed.Based on the equivalent potential for the quark-gluon interaction derived, the energyshifts of hadrons and hadron mass difference in MIT bag (cavity) model and correcpond-ing approximation of the w. f. with Gassian form are calculated.     

Theoretical Investigations of Nonlinear Optical Properties of Transition Metal Cluster Anions

In the framework of density functional theory （DFT）, the electronic excitations and nonlinear optical （NLO） properties of six binuclear transition metal cluster anions with the formula of [Ch2M-（μ-Ch）2-M＇CN]^2- （M = Mo, W; Ch = S, Se; M＇ = Cu, Ag） have been systemically investigated at both cases of gas phase and DMF solution. The obtained electronic absorption spectra reveal that the element replacements of metals M and ligands Ch have significant influence on the absorptions, especially on the low-lying ones. In addition, the transitions of μ-Ch→M are dominant for the low-lying excitations, whereas the transitions of M＇→M as well as Ch→M are mainly responsible for the higher excitations. The calculated molecular first and second hyperpolarizabilities present the remarkable element substitution and solvent effects. The analyses show that the transitions involving μ-Ch→M charge transfer make the critical contributions to the first hyperpolarizability t, and that the charge transfers from the moieties of MCh4 to M＇CN as well as those of μ-Ch→M and M＇→M are responsible for the second hyperpolarizability y. Moreover, the introduction of solvent leads to the results that the transitions within the moieties of MCh4 and M＇CN make larger contributions to the hyperpolarizability, especially to γ.     

Λ Production and Λ/p Ratio in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

The Λ multiplicity and Λ/p ratio are studied by hadron transportation-string fragmentation model in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Firstly, the dependence of Λ multiplicity and Λ/p ratio on the system size and the collision centrality is studied. It shows that the Λ and p multiplicities go up as the increase of system size and the increase of collision centrality. However, their ratio keeps almost a constant. The effect of Λ annihilation cross section to Λ multiplicity and Λ/p ratio is also studied. It is found that this effect is weak: Λ multiplicity and Λ/p ratio have a little amount of increase by the decrease of Λ annihilation cross section. Even the cross section is down to zero, Λ/p ratio is only 1.2 in 200A GeV AuAu head on collision. The Λ/p ratio is obtained to be 0.28 in pp collision, lying in the range of experimental data:0.2—0.3. It is also obtained that the ratio in AA collisions is 3—5 times of that in pp collision.     

Effect of microheterogeneity on the kinetics of oxidation of methyl linoleate in micelles

The kinetic results of the radical chain oxidation of methyl linoleate (LH) in micelles were given. The oxidation rate depends on the average number of substrate molecules in the micelle and is almost independent of the micelle concentration under the given conditions. The chain propagation and termination were assumed to predominantly occur inside the micelle. Possible reasons for linear chain termination during the oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty esters in microheterogeneous systems were discussed.
