Spectral-luminescent properties of oxazole derivatives with annelated aromatic and heterocyclic rings in neutral and acid media

An investigation was carried out of the spectral-luminescent and acid-base properties at the stage of formation of the hydrogen bond and during the protonation of compounds with annelated aromatic and heterocyclic rings, obtained by introduction of bridging groups -CH=CH- (I), -CH=N- (II) and -CO-N(CH₃)-(III) in the 4- and 2-positions of the molecules of 4-substituted derivatives of 2,5-diphenyloxazole. The nature of the reaction center was estabished, and an analysis was carried out of its sensitivity to the electronic influence of the substituents, and the reasons for the observed differences in the properties of compounds of various reaction series are discussed. A comparative analysis of the fluorescent properties of the neutral and protonated forms of the oxazole derivatives studied was made and the conclusion that the generation is possible of laser emission by the protonated forms of compounds of the reaction series (I) was confirmed.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimental'naya Khimiya, Vol. 28, No. 4, pp. 343–349, July–August, 1992.     

Spectral and electrochemical properties of polyaniline-V2O5 composites of the intercalation type

We propose a new approach to obtaining composites of the intercalation type based on polyaniline and V₂O₅. We have determined the characteristics of these composites using x-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, and EPR. We show that the compounds obtained exhibit stable redox properties in aqueous and aprotic electrolytes.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimental'naya Khimiya, Vol. 31, No. 6, pp. 361–364, November–December, 1995.We would like to express our thanks to V. G. II'in for help in carrying out the x-ray phase investigations. This work was made possible with the partial support of the International Science Foundation (grant N U6B000).     

Intracavity laser polarization spectrometer for biomolecule traces

A polarization variant of an intracavity laser spectrometer based on the competition of beams in an argon ion laser, radiating a number of narrow lines in the 275 to 529 nm spectral range, is proposed and described for the spectral analysis of liquid samples, having broad absorption bands, mainly biomolecules in solutions. By careful optimization of the operating conditions, a procedure has been established that results in a minimal measurable absorbance decreased up to 10(-5) units of optical density. The examined spectrometer provides a wide dynamic range of analysis. A determination of trace contents of amino acids in methanol were carried out.     

Photochemical properties and structures ofN-amino andN-azomethine derivatives of 2,4,6-triphenylpyridinium perchlorates

The molecular structures of the initial compounds and the products of photocyclization involving amino and azomethine groups in perchlorates ofN-amino (1) andN-azomethine (2) derivatives of 2,4,6-triphenylpyridinium cations were studied. Cations1 and2 have an essentially non-coplanar arrangement of the -Ph rings, and the product of photocyclization of2, cation3, is characterized by a flattened structure. It was found that the orientation of the lone electron pair of the N atom with respect to one of the planes of the -Ph rings in molecule1 is more favorable for monocyclization involving the amino group. The structure of molecule2 allows two routes of the photoreaction,viz., O N proton transfer and monocyclization with an -Ph ring. However, the structural features of molecule2 are more favorable for photocyclization.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 296–301, February, 1995.     

“Dead zone” in a porous catalyst granule for a nonstationary parallel reaction

The quasi-homogeneous model was used to study the “dead zone” in porous catalyst granules of spherical, cylindrical, and platelike shapes for parallel catalytic reaction with the Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetics that occur under transient or artificially created nonstationary conditions.     

Reaction of 2-chloro-5-methylbenzoquinone with Β-aminocrotonic ester derivatives

The reaction of 2-chloro-5-methylbenzoquinone with -aminocrotonic ester derivatives was studied by PMR spectroscopy in CD₃COOD. The spectra indicate the formation of intermediate hydroquinone and quinone derivatives, which subsequently transform into the corresponding indoles. It was shown that the indolization proceeds unequivocally at the 3-position of the initial benzoquinone, and the rate of formation of the indole derivatives decreases with increase in the size of the substituent at the nitrogen atom of the -aminocrotonic ester. The starting, intermediate compounds and the end products observed in the PMR spectra were identified by comparison with specially synthesized compounds.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 324–328, March, 1990.
