Nucleocyclitols. Synthesis of substituted purinyl-muco-inositol derivatives

Several carbocyclic nucleoside analogs possessing a 6-substituted purine linked to a mesylated muco-inositol were synthesized. The coupling of triethylamine-activated 6-chloropurine with 2,3-anhydro-l,5,6-tri-O-(methanesulfonyl)-epi-inositol gave a 6-chloro purinyl muco-inositol amenable to further synthetic transformations in the heterocyclic moiety by substitution of the chlorine atom by nitrogen nucleophiles such as methylamino, diethylamino, benzylamino, hydrazino, morpholino, hydroxylamino, piperidino, and glycyl groups.     

Synthesis, Structure and Biological Activities of Novel Triazole Compounds Containing N,N-Dialkyldithiocarbamate Moiety

Introduction As an important type of fungicides, triazole compounds are highly efficient, low poisonous and inward absorbent.1-3 At present, the studies on triazole derivatives are mainly concentrated on compounds with triazole as the only active group. The report of triazole compounds that contain both triazole group and other active group in a single molecule has rarely been found. Dialkyl-substituted dithiocarbamate salts have also shown interesting biological effects.4 N,N-Dialkyldithio-…     

The Dienone–Phenol Rearrangement of Santonin: A Comprehensive Laboratory Experiment for Advanced Undergraduate Organic Chemistry Students

A comprehensive laboratory experiment suitable for advanced undergraduate organic chemistry students has been designed. The experiment is based on the dienone-phenol rearrangement reaction of the sesquiterpene santonin to give -desmotroposantonin acetate. It challenges students to solve an earlier controversial stereochemical problem. The students carry out the reaction and analyze spectroscopic data to determine the stereochemistry of the starting material and the product. In addition, they perform simple molecular modeling calculations, which enable them to rationalize the stereochemical outcome of the transformation and discuss the mechanism of the dienone-phenol rearrangement and related rearrangements reported in the literature.     

Organosilicon compounds containing carbofunctional biguanidine group

The reaction of triethoxysilylpropylamine (AGM-9) with dicyanodiamide was studied. The condensation of AGM-9 with dicyanodiamide occurs in the presence of a catalytic amount of CuCl₂ at 125–145°C within 5–24 h; it involves both the amino group of AGM-9 and ethoxy substituents at the Si atoms, with an unusual exchange of a Si-O bond for a Si-N bond. The final reaction product is 1-N-(3-triethoxysilylpropyl)-2-N-[3-aminopropylsilyl(diethoxy)]biguanidine. Its hydrolytic polycondensation yields an organosilicon polymer, a polycondensate of AGM-9 with 1-N-(3-triethoxysilylpropyl)biguanidine, which is a highly efficient sorbent for Ag(I) (static sorption capacity 544 mg g^?1).

Analysis of 19-norandrosterone in human urine by gas chromatography–isotope-dilution mass spectrometry: method adopted by LGC for participation in the Comité Consultatif pour la Quantité de Matière (CCQM) Pilot Study P68

The method used at LGC for analysis of “total” 19-norandrosterone (19-norandrosterone glucuronide plus “free” 19-norandrosterone) in urine for the Comité Consultatif pour la Quantité de Matière Pilot Study (CCQM-P68) is described. The analytical method used was a modified version of the method developed at the National Measurement Institute of Australia, which used a hydrolysis and derivatisation procedure first described by the German Sports University. This method is routinely used by World Anti-Doping Agency-accredited laboratories for sports drug testing. The main modifications made to the method were the use of 19-norandrosterone glucuronide as a calibration standard and 19-norandrosterone glucuronide-d4 as an isotopically labelled internal standard, and the use of a bench-top quadrupole gas chromatograph–mass spectrometer. The results produced by LGC (2.14 ± 0.15 ng g⁻¹ expanded uncertainty, coverage factor k = 2) were in excellent agreement with those from other participating national metrology institutes and thus further validates the exact-matching isotope-dilution mass spectrometric procedures used at LGC for a wide range of reference measurement applications, including measurement of ng g⁻¹ levels of steroids in a biological matrix.     

Some applications of gel-permeation chromatography in investigations of structure and the solution properties of radical-initiated poly(vinyl chloride)

The applicability of the published universal calibration parameters for gel-permeation chromatography on polystyrene standards and poly(vinyl chloride) samples with a defined structure has been compared. It was shown experimentally that of several theoretically possible molecular weight averages attributed to the elution volume at the position of the peak maximum, the root mean-square average molecular weight M _Rms = (M _wM _n)^0.5 shows the best accordance. The molecular weights obtained by gel-permeation chromatography were compared with those determined by viscometry, osmometry, and the light-scattering method. The reproducibility of gel-permeation chromatography measurements is 3%, and the average variance of the results as compared with results obtained by the above methods is about 8%. It was also found that the gel-permeation chromatography does not involve any anomalies interfering with results obtained by other methods.     

Rheological properties of solutions and gels of combined systems hydrophobically modified polyacrylamides-new viscoelastic cationic surfactants

The rheological properties (viscosity and dynamic elasticity modulus) of solutions and gels of combined systems composed of hydrophobically modified polymers containing main-chain charged groups or lacking these groups and of newly synthesized viscoelastic cationic surfactants with different amounts of OH groups and long nonpolar saturated and trans monounsaturated radicals have been studied. It has been shown that the maximum viscosity of solutions of polymer-surfactant complexes corresponds to the very low concentration of the surfactant. Regions where homogeneous and heterogeneous combined solutions and gels exist are considered. An increase in the viscosity of the combined solutions with temperature is discovered and discussed. The synergistic effect of polymers and surfactants is demonstrated, and a more efficient role of surfactants in the case of uncharged polymers is revealed. The roles of the number of OH groups and the length of the nonpolar radical in a surfactant molecule and a difference in the properties of systems containing surfactants with saturated and unsaturated radicals are considered.     

Potentiometric, luminescence and NMR study of the interaction of Eu with glyceryl phosphates

Complexation of europium(III) with glyceryl-1- and -2-phosphates has been studied by metal ion luminescence, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and potentiometry. From the luminescence and NMR studies, the formation of a 1:1 inner-sphere complex, in which the glyceryl phosphate is directly bound to the metal, is confirmed. Similar apparent binding constants at pH 2 were obtained by the three methods. Values obtained by NMR at pH 2 are 53 M⁻¹ and 12 M⁻¹ for glyceryl-1- and -2-phosphate, respectively. By comparison with literature data on related systems it is suggested that the ligands bind through the phosphate group. To obtain structural information from the NMR data, complexation has also been studied with the lanthanide ions Dy(III), Er(III) and Gd(III) using both chemical shift and relaxation data. From this, metal-proton distance ratios have been calculated. Comparison of ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectral data in the presence of paramagnetic lanthanides suggests conformational equilibria in the solutions. From the potentiometric studies, global formation constants have been determined, and speciation diagrams obtained over the pH range 1.5pH7.0 for ligand/metal ratios of 1 and 30. Implications of these results on lanthanide induced fusion of phospholipid membranes are discussed.
