Electrolytic methoxylation of 3,4-bis(hydroxymethyl) furan and synthesis of 4,5-bis-(hydroxymethyl) pyridazine

3,4-Bis(hydroxymethyl)furan was electrolytically methoxylated during intense cooling. 4,5-Bis(hydroxymethyl)pyridazine was obtained by reaction of the methoxylation product — 2,5-dimethoxy-3,4-bis (hydroxymethyl)-2,5-dihydrofuran — with hydrazine hydrate.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1306–1307, October, 1970.     

Use of organomagnesium compounds for the synthesis of organic derivatives of group II–V elements in a nonethereal medium

Summary For the primary alkyl halides (R=from C₂H₅ to n-C₉H₁₉; halogen=C1, Br, and I) and the simplest aryl halides (R=C₆H₅ and p-CH₃C₆H₄) it was shown that the organomagnesium synthesis in absence of catalysts for the Grignard reaction can be applied with success to the preparation of heteroorganic compounds of elements of Groups II–IV (mercury, boron, aluminum, silicon, germanium, tin, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony).     

VI. Synthesis of Heterocyclic Analogs of γ-Aminobutyric Acid from 3,5-Dinitrobenzoic Acid

A series of 7-carboxy-3-R-1,5-dinitro-3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]non-6-enes was synthesized by reduction of 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid with sodium borohydride followed by Mannich reaction with formaldehyde and primary amines. The mechanism of decomposition under electron impact of the 3-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane was established. Enthalpies of formation of compounds synthesized were calculated by semiempirical PM3 method.     

Facile cyclic ammonium salt with the smallest size for high performance electric double layer capacitors

A novel cyclic ammonium salt, N,N-dimethylpyrrolidinium tetrafluoroborate (P₁₁-BF₄), was successfully synthesized for the first time. The smallest cyclic structure of P₁₁-BF₄ induced high solubility and conductivity in PC, which can easier enter the micropores of activated carbon and occupy more surface area during charge/discharge process.

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.     

Synthesis and structure of novel derivatives of thieno[2,3-b]thiocine. An unusual product of intramolecular cycloaddition of 2-homomethallylthio-5-methyl-3-thiophenecarbonitrile oxide

9-Methyl-3,3a,4,5-tetrahydro-6H-thieno[2,3-b]thiocino[4,5-c]isoxazole and 9-hydroxyimino-2-methyl-7-methylene-6, 7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-thieno[2,3-b]thiocine have been prepared for the first time by the oxidation of 2--alkenylthio-3-thiophenecarbaldoximes with NaOCl. X-ray structural investigations of thieno[2,3-b]thiocine and 2-homomethallylthio-5-methyl-3-thiophenecarbaldoxime have been carried out.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

The preparation and X-ray structural study of complexes that catalyze isocyanate cyclotrimerization

A 11-complex of trinitrophenol with benzyldimethylamine (1) and a 111-complex, the product of the interaction of benzyldimethylamine, glycidyl phenyl ether, and phenol (2), have been synthesized and characterized by means of X-ray analysis. Complex1 is a precursor for the catalysts of selective isocyanate cyclotrimerization, while complex2 is one of those catalysts. In the crystal structure complex1 forms H-bonded cationic-anionic aggregates with proton transfer from phenol to the N-atom of the tertiary amine. Complex2 crystallizes as a monohydrate (2a) with a strong H-bond between the quaternary ammonium and phenolic components, and exists in crystals in the form of globular H-bonded dimeric hydrates. Possible pathways of dissociation of complex2a are discussed. The data obtained may be used as a basis for further interpretation of the regularities of cyclotrimerization of isocyanates catalyzed by complexes of this type.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
