Recent advances in the organic synthesis at high pressure. Effect of pressure on the macrocyclization reaction

Abstract

α,ω-Tertiary diamines react under high pressure with α,ω-di-iodo compounds to give cyclic or bicyclic bis-quaternary salts in almost quantitative yields. The role of high-pressure-induced changes in conformation of linear intermediates and the viscosity factor are discussed.

Amphiphilic block and statistical siloxane copolymers with antimicrobial activity

Statistical and block all‐siloxane copolymers containing quaternary ammonium salt (QAS) groups with biocidal activity as lateral substituents were synthesized as models for the study of the effect of the arrangement of the QAS groups in the copolymer chain on their antimicrobial activity. The bioactive siloxane unit was [3‐n‐octyldimethylammoniopropyl]methylsiloxane, and the neutral unit was dimethylsiloxane. The copolymers also contained siloxane units with unreacted precursor 3‐chloropropyl or 3‐bromopropyl groups. A small number of units containing highly hydrophilic 3‐(3‐hydroxypropyl‐dimethylammonio)propyl groups were introduced to increase the solubility of the copolymers in water. The bioactive and bioneutral units were arranged in the polymer chain either in blocks or in statistical order. The block copolymers differed in the number and length of segments. The copolymers were obtained by the quaternization of tertiary amines by chloropropyl or bromopropyl groups attached to polysiloxane chains. The arrangement of the bioactive groups was controlled by the arrangement of the halogenopropyl groups in the bioactive copolymer precursor. All model siloxane copolymers showed high bactericidal activity in a water solution toward the gram‐negative bacteria Escherichia coli and the gram‐positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. However, no essential differences in the activities of the copolymers with block and statistical arrangements of units were detected. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Quantitative determination of alkylated quaternary amines and their n-hydroxylated metabolites in an enzyme incubation matrix by liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

A simple, rapid and sensitive reversed-phase liquid chromatography method coupled to electrospray ionization mass spectrometry has been developed for studying the in vitro metabolism of the long-chain quaternary ammonium compounds dodecyltrimethylamine, tetradecyltrimethylamine and hexadecyltrimethylamine. Samples were prepared from the biological matrix by a simple protein precipitation stage. The separation was performed using a BDS Hypersil C8 3 microm particle size (100 x 3 mm i.d.) column with a fast gradient separation (60% B to 100% B) using a mobile phase of 10 mm aqueous ammonium acetate (pH 4.0, with 0.06% triethylamine; (A)-acetonitrile (B) at 0.7 mL min(-1). To minimize contamination of the MS source a switching value was used to divert the solvent front to waste. Decylammonium bromide was used as the internal standard and analytes were identified and quantified by positive ion electrospray selected ion monitoring of their intact molecular cations. The assay had a limit of quantitation of 0.25 microm (6.25 pmol on column) and was linear over the range 0.25--100 microm assay concentration for this series of long-chain quaternary amines. The precision of intra- and inter-day assays was better than 19% and the accuracy was between 93 and 109%. The method was used to assess the in vitro metabolism of the quaternary amines by wild-type cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP 4 A 1 and mutants in an artifical membrane system.     

A search for rare types of fission induced in silver and bromine nuclei

Ternary and quaternary fission produced in silver and bromine nuclei have been studied withK5 nuclear emulsion exposed to 1.8 GeV/cK ⁻ beams. The frequency of the ternary events is found to be ∼0.08 of that of the binary events produced in the same volume of the emulsion. The range ratio and range distribution of the fission fragments are studied and the angles between each pair of the fragments are determined. Ranges are found to vary from 5 to 40μ with a maximum number lying between 5 and 10μ. The angles between the fission fragments are found to form a broad distribution extending from 40° to 180°. A few of the events have also been analysed to give them a possible identity. A possible case of quaternary fission has also been reported. This paper was presented at the Symposium on 3rd High Energy Physics held at Bhubaneswar during November 1976.     

Effect of pressure on the properties of DH diode lasers in AlxGa1-xAsySb1-y/GaSb system

Abstract

A helium pressure appparatus for diode laser studies up to 1.4 GPa at 77–300 K has been developed. DH lasers with Al_xGa_1-xAs_ySb_1-y active layers (x=0-0.05) lattice-matched to GaSb substrates have been investigated. It has been shown that in lasers with x,y=0 pressure dependences of the threshold current density (J_th) and the average electron lifetime at the threshold (τ) measured at 80 K depend strongly on the quadratic recombination of L^c ₆ electrons, the characteristic coefficient being 1.5×10^?11 cm³s^?1. The pressure-composition equivalence coefficient dx/dP=2.2×10^?10 Pa^?1 has been obtained for the lowest temperatures used.     

Effect of Alkyl Side Chain on the Conformational Properties of Polysulfones with Quaternary Groups

Modification of intrinsic viscosity, temperature coefficient, and preferential adsorption coefficient of polysulfones with different alkyl side groups in N,N-dimethylformamide/methanol and N,N-dimethylformamide/water was investigated at different compositions and temperatures. The specific interactions, such as hydrogen bonding and polyelectrolyte effect induced by an enhanced dissociation of the ionizable groups, determine both the modification of the solvation power of the polymer coil and the difference in the composition of the mixed solvent inside and outside the coil.
