Properties of the amino group in N-(aminophenyl)pyridinium perchlorates

The pyridinium ring as a substituent in aniline is an electron acceptor, the effect of which is comparable to the effect of NO₂ and N(CH₃)₂ groups. Correlation of the reactivities with the basicities of the amino groups is not observed in the investigated reactions of N-(aminophenyl)pyridinium perchlorates with some electrophilic reagents, inasmuch as steric factors apparently play a greater role.

Skeletal ruthenium catalyst in asymmetric hydrogenation

Conclusions Skeletal ruthenium catalyst, modified with D-(+)-tartaric acid, leads to the asymmetric hydrogenation of the carbonyl group in acetoacetic ester.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, p. 2361, October, 1972.

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.     

Olivomycin and related antibiotics

Summary It has been shown that olivomycose has the structure of 3-C-methyl-2, 6-dideoxy-L-arabino-hexose. In olivomycins A and C, this sugar is present in the form of the 4-O-isobutyrate, and in olivomycin B in the form of the 4-O-acetate.Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, Vol. 3, No. 6, pp. 405–410, 1967For preliminary communication, see [1].     

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.
