Selective methodologies for the synthesis of biologically active piperidinic compounds

The synthesis of optically active substituted piperidines has been achieved by using four different methodologies. The first one is an intramolecular nucleophilic displacement of activated alcohol moieties that was used to build up the piperidine ring of (-)-prosophylline and (-)-slaframine, and the second one is a ring-closing metathesis of unsaturated amines which was employed in the synthesis of (+)-sedamine and 4a,5-dihydrostreptazoline. The third methodology is the alpha-functionalization of N-Boc piperidines which was particularly useful in the synthesis of argatroban, and the fourth one is a ring expansion of prolinols to 3-chloropiperidines or 3-hydroxypiperidines which was utilized to synthesize (-)-paroxetine, (-)-pseudoconhydrine, the piperidine ring of (-)-velbanamine and (+)-zamifenacin.     

Ab Initio (GIAO) Calculations of Absolute Nuclear Shieldings for Representative Compounds Containing 1(2)H, 6(7)Li, 11B, 13C, 14(15)N, 17O, 19F, 29Si, 31P, 33S,and 35Cl Nuclei

Two kinds of ab initio calculations (B3LYP and HF) using the GIAO approach have been carried out for fifteen H, three Li, three B, eleven C, seven N, nine O, four F, three Si, four P, six S and five Cl containing derivatives. The calculated absolute nuclear shieldings have been compared with experimental absolute values (either measured or estimated from relative chemical shifts) when available or with relative chemical shifts (¹¹B, ³⁵Cl). The correlations range from good to excellent and only three compounds (PN, P₂H₂, SO₂) deviate significantly.     

Pervaporation of ethanol-water mixtures through temperature-sensitive poly(vinyl alcohol-g-N-isopropyacrylamide) membranes

Novel temperature-sensitive membranes have been synthesized by grafting poly(N-isopropyacrylamide) (poly(NIPAAm)) onto a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) backbone using hydrogen peroxide-ferrous ion as initiator. Due to the grafting of poly(NIPAAm), the hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance and the polarity of the pendent groups within the membranes are modified. Significant temperature sensitivity of the grafted membranes is observed close to the LCST of linear poly(NIPAAm) in the pervaporation processes for ethanol-water separation. Both the pervaporation and sorption selectivities for water show a maximum value in the vicinity of 30–32°C for an ethanol content of 75 and 80%. The temperature sensitivity of the grafted membranes also depends on the ethanol concentration. The maxima of pervaporation and sorption selectivities disappear when the ethanol content is lower than 75% because the much larger degree of swelling reduces the size screening effect of the membranes.

Interpenetrating polymer networks of poly(dimethyl siloxane–urethane) and poly(methyl methacrylate)

Simultaneous IPNs of poly(dimethyl siloxane-urethane) (PDMSU)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and related isomers have been prepared by using new oligomers of bis(β-hydroxyethoxymethyl)poly(dimethyl siloxane)s (PDMS diols) and new crosslinkers biuret triisocyanate (BTI) and tris(β-hydroxylethoxymethyl dimethylsiloxy) phenylsilane (Si-triol). Their phase morphology have been characterized by DSC and SEM. The SEM phase domain size is decreased by increasing crosslink density of the PDMSU network. A single phase IPN of PDMSU/PMMA can be made at an M_c = 1000 and 80 wt % of PDMSU. All of the pseudo- or semi-IPNs and blends of PDMSU and PMMA were phase separated with phase domain sizes ranging from 0.2 to several micrometers. The full IPNs of PDMSU/PMMA have better thermal resistance compared to the blends of linear PDMSU and linear PMMA. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Elektrophile Substitution und nucleophile Addition an 3,4-Dihydro-5(1H)-pyrromethenonen

3,4-Dihydro-5(1H)-pyrromethenones are easier attacked at themeso-position by electrophiles than 5(1H)-pyrromethenones. This is demonstrated both by aMannich-type-substitution or deuterium-exchange-experiments and by the addition of O-, S-, and N-Nucleophiles to the exocyclic double bond of the model-dihydropyrromethenone (Z)-1 under very mild reaction conditions. Applying these results to the chemistry of 2,3-dihydro-bilatrienes-abc, their chemical characteristics—especially their tautomeric behavior and their dominant C-5-selectivity towards electrophiles—become better understandable.

     

Theoretical studies of molecular conformation. Derivation of an additive procedure for the computation of intramolecular interaction energies. Comparison withab initio SCF computations

An additive procedure (SIBFA) is developed for the rapid computation of conformational energy variations in very large molecules. The macromolecule is built out of constitutive molecular fragments and the intramolecular energy is computed as a sum of interaction energies between the fragments. The electrostatic and the polarization components are calculated using multicenter multipole expansions of theab initio SCF electron density of the fragments. The repulsion component is obtained as a sum of bond and lone pair interactions.Tests of the procedure on a series of model compounds containing ether oxygens and pyridine-like nitrogens are reported and compared with the results of correspondingab initio SCF calculations. The resulting methodology is compatible with the simultaneous computation of intermolecular interactions.     

葡萄糖B-Z体系中酸度变化诱导的复杂振荡反应

本文首次报导了葡萄糖-KBrO₃-丙酮-MnSO₄-H₂SO₄体系的化学振荡反应,在这一体系中改变酸度可产生一系列复杂的振荡现象,当[H₂SO₄]₀>0.36mol·l^-1或[H₂SO₄]₀<0.074mol·l^-1时,体系分别出现二种不同类型的振荡波形OA和OB,OA振荡存在一诱导期,OB振荡无锈导期;OA的振幅较小,但振荡频率比OB快得多;OB的振荡周期逐渐缩短,但OA.却相反变化.当0.074mol·l^-1<[H₂SO₄]₀<0.36mol·l^-1时,体系同时出现上述二种类型的振荡波形,中间存在一过渡区域,即产生连续振荡波形.文章讨论了诱导期及过渡时间与[H₂SO₄]₀的关系,对酸度的影响机理作了说明.     

Synthesis of novel derivatives of 2-(azolylimino)thiazoline

Successive alkylation of 5-(3-phenylthioureido)-3H-imidazole-4-carboxamides with alkyl halides and chloroacetone gave (N-oxopropylimidazolyl)isothioureas, which were easily converted into derivatives of purine and imidazopyrazinone. In the case of ethyl 5-(3-phenylthioureido)-3H-imidazole-4-carboxylate, primary alkylation occurs at the N atom of the imidazole ring. Reactions of 5-(3-phenylthioureido)-3H-imidazole-4-carboxamides with haloketones afforded a number of 4-hydroxy-2-imidazolyliminothiazolidines and 2-imidazolylimino-Δ⁴-thiazolines.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.
