HYDROCHLORINATION OF 2,3-ACETYLENIC ACIDS WITH THIONYL CHLORIDE IN DIMETHYLFORMAMIDE

ABSTRACT

The reaction of 2,3-acetylenic acids (1a–d) with thionyl chloride in DMF under mild conditions gave E,Z-3-chloro-2-alkenoic acids (2a–d) or esters (3a–d) depending on treating the reaction mixture with either water or alcohols.     

A Convenient Synthesis of 2‐Amino‐3‐cyano‐4‐aryl‐1,4,5,6‐tetrahydrobenzo[h]chromenes Derivatives Using KF‐Al2O3 as Catalyst

Abstract

A series of new 2‐amino‐3‐cyano‐4‐aryl‐1,4,5,6‐tetrahydrobenzo[h]chromenes derivatives were synthesized by the reaction of malononitrile with 2‐arylmethylidene‐3, 4‐dihydro‐1(2H)‐naphthalenone in N,N‐dimethylformamide (DMF) at 80°C catalyzed by KF‐Al₂O₃. The structure of the product was confirmed by x‐ray analysis.     

Synthesis of Nano‐Sized TiO2 Colloidal Sol and Its Optical Properties

Nano‐sized TiO₂ sol was prepared through a wet synthesis process. The synthesis procedure involved hydrolysis of TiCl₄, acid treatment, and a SiO₂ surface‐modifying process. Before surface modification, the TiO₂ suspension was treated with acid to remove Na ions, soluble TiO_2, and other impurities. The acid treatment of a TiO₂ suspension at a higher temperature was proved to be useful for effective SiO₂ modification. The colloidal sol provided high transparency in visible light as well as excellent UV‐shielding properties. Surface modification of TiO₂ particles with SiO₂ greatly improved both the dispersing stability in neutral pH and the photostability of TiO₂ colloidal sol.     

Effect of CyDye minimum labeling in differential gel electrophoresis on the reliability of protein identification

Differential 2-DE (DIGE) is a widely applied tool for the quantitative analysis of differentially represented proteins. The method involves covalent minimal labeling of proteins prior to their electrophoretic separation using CyDye DIGE Fluor minimal dyes. This methodology creates two different species per protein, the labeled (approx. 1-2%) and unlabeled (approx. 98-99%) ones, which differ in their molecular masses by 434-464 Da, depending on the attached dye. DIGE followed by automated spot picking according to the CyDye coordinates misses in many instances the exact positions where the maximum amounts of the considered proteins are located. This fact leads to a loss in sensitivity of the subsequent MALDI-MS analyses and results in a reduced reliability of protein identification and sequence coverage. In this paper, the migration differences of labeled and unlabeled species are quantified together with the impact of this effect on the certainty of protein identification and sequence coverage investigating proteins up to 90 kDa.     

Covalence reduction factors of four-coordinated pseudo-tetrahedral paramagnetic compounds inD 2d symmetry

Theoretical expressions for the covalence reduction factors of orbital angular momentum and spin-orbit coupling in pseudo-tetrahedral four-coordinated paramagnetic complexes withD _2d symmetry, denoted ask's andR's respectively, have been derived. p ]The mixing coefficients in the antibonding MO's for the CuCl ₄ ^2- ion in three complexes are estimated using suitable approximations. It is shown thatk's must be less thanR's in Tinkham's approximation. Certain misconceptions existing in the literature regarding the value of the integral 〈p _u |???u|s〉 have been clarified.     

Preparation of β-cyclodextrin-polyaniline complex in supercritical CO2

A method is proposed to prepare β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)/polyaniline (PANI) inclusion complex. In this route, benzoyl peroxide (BPO, the oxidant) is first encapsulated into the cavity of β-CD. Aniline is then carried into the cavity of β-CD by supercritical (SC) CO₂, which polymerizes in situ to form inclusion complex. The product is characterized by FT-IR, UV-Vis, ¹H NMR and XRD techniques. The results suggest that the columnar inclusion complexes may be formed.     

Synthesis of macrocyclic 1,1′-biarenol derivatives by the tandem Claisen rearrangement and their binding properties

Crown ether-type macrocycles consisting of an enantiopure biarenol derivative and an oligoethylene glycol were synthesized by the Lewis acid-mediated tandem Claisen rearrangement. This is the first example of the successful application of the tandem Claisen rearrangement to the synthesis of enantiopure macrocyclic biarenol derivatives. The enantiopure macrocyclic biarenols were found to form 1:1 complexes with amino acid salts and to discriminate their chirality.     

Tautomeric conjugate acids of 2-aminopyrroles: effect of substituents, solvation and cosolute

The tautomeric preferences of the conjugated acids of 2-aminopyrrole derivatives have been examined both in the gas phase and in aqueous solution by using a combination of quantum mechanical, self-consistent reaction field and Monte Carlo–free-energy perturbation methods. The results show that the nature of substituents, the solvent and the presence of cosolute are relevant factors in modulating the relative stability between the tautomeric conjugate acids protonated at the heterocyclic ring and at the exocyclic amino nitrogen. Thus, attachment of electron-withdrawing groups to the ring, solvation in polar solvents, and the presence of negatively charged cosolutes tend to favor protonation at the exocyclic amino nitrogen. Nevertheless, none of these factors alone suffice to change the tautomeric preference for the ring-protonated forms. The results point out that the concerted occurrence of the three factors is necessary to shift the tautomeric preference towards the conjugated species protonated at the exocyclic nitrogen.Contribution to the Jacopo Tomasi Honorary Issue
