Temperature effect on the rate of formation of free radicals in CTAB-catalyzed decomposition of hydroperoxides

The temperature effect on the rate of the decomposition of hydroperoxides and the rate of the formation of free radicals in the oxidation of ethylbenzene with molecular oxygen in the presence of -phenylethyl hydroperoxide—cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as a catalytic system for free radical generation was studied by kinetic methods (from the oxygen consumption and hydroperoxide decomposition rates) and the inhibition method involving different acceptors of free radicals.

Condensed isoquinolines 23. Reaction of <Emphasis Type="Italic">o</Emphasis>-bromomethylphenyl-acetonitrile with anthranilic acids: Synthesis of 6H, 12H,17H-dibenzo[3,4:6,7][1,8]-naphthyridino[1,8-<Emphasis Type="Italic">ab</Emphasis>]quinazoline-6,17-diones

The direction of the reaction of anthranilic acids with o-bromomethylphenylacetonitrile upon fusion depends on the temperature and nature of the substituent in the anthranilic acid. The reaction may lead to three types of products: Derivatives of 7,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones below 150°C and to 6,11-dihydro-13H-isoquino[3,2-b]quinazolin-13-one or derivatives of 6H,12H,17H-dibenzo[3,4:6,7][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-6,17-diones above 150°C depending on the nature of the substituent in the anthranilic acid. A study was carried out on the mechanism for the formation of 6H,12H,17H-dibenzo[3,4:6,7][1,8]naphthyridino[1,8-ab]quinazoline-6,17-diones, which permitted the preparation of 6-(4-methylphenyl)-6,12-dihydro-5H-isoquino[2,3-a]quinazolin-5-one. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 1059–1067, July, 2007.

Influence of the position of the nitro group on the structural and spectroscopic characteristics of N"-(nitrobenzylidene)isonicotinic hydrazides in the crystalline state

N"-Substituted isonicotinic hydrazides of the general formula Py—C(=O)—N(H)-N"=C(H)—R, where R is o- (1), m- (2), or p-nitrophenyl (3), were studied by IR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The position of the nitro group in these compounds has no effect on the type of the crystal structure. The crystal packings are based on stacks consisting of antiparallel planar molecules. The molecules from the adjacent stacks are linked to each other via the N—H...N_Py hydrogen bonds. Depending on the position of the nitro group, the N...N_Py distance increases in the series 3 > 1 > 2 and the energy of the hydrogen bonds decreases (according to the IR spectroscopic data) from 3.9 to 3.1 kcal mol^–1. Analysis of the IR spectra demonstrated that the intensity of absorption in the (C—H) stretching region of the pyridine ring increases substantially as the the N—H...N_Py hydrogen bond is strengthened. Some regularities of the changes, which are observed for the (NO₂) bands in the spectra of the nitrophenyl-containing conjugated molecules in solutions, persist in the crystalline state.     

HPLC of amino acids and oligopeptides by pre-column fluorescence derivatization with N-hydroxysuccinimidyl-α-(9-phenanthrene)-acetate

Summary A sensitive LC method for the detection of amino acids and oligopeptides with pre-column fluorescence derivatization has been developed. Glycine, glycylglycine, triglycine, glutathione, glutamic acid, and cysteine were separated on a reversed-phase C₁₈ column with methanol-water-triethylamine eluent, derivatization and chromatographic conditions were optimized. The six derivatives were eluted in 20 min with good reproducibility. The relative standard derviations (n=6) at an analytical concentration of 2×10⁻⁶ M are <5%. Detection limits (signal-to-noise ratio=3) for the six derivatives are 23–68 fmol.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of a pyrazole derivative of artemisia ketone

The oxime of artemisia ketone is smoothly converted to the pyrazole derivative by sodium nitrite and acetic acid in CHCl₃. The structure of the pyrazole was found by x-ray structural analysis. The PMR and¹³C NMR spectra were interpreted using two-dimensional¹H–¹³C NMR (COSY, COLOC).Translated from Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 121–123, March–April, 2000.     

Oxidation of γ-stannyl sulfides by monochloramine CB and hydrogen peroxide

The first γ-trimethylstannyl sulfimide, Me³Sn(CH₂)₃S(=NSO₂Ar)C₅H₁₁-n, was synthesized by oxidative imination of Me₃Sn(CH₂)₃SC₅H₁₁-n with ArSO₂(Na)Cl (Ar=C₆H₄Cl-4). Oxidation of γ-trimethylstannyl sulfimide by an alkaline solution of H₂O₂ gave γ-trimethylstannyl sulfoximide, Me₃Sn(CH₂)₃S(O)(=NSO₂Ar)C₅H₁₁-n, and γ-trimethylstannyl sulfone, Me₃Sn(CH₂)₃SO₂C₅H₁₁-n, the latter compound resulting from hydrolysis of the arylsulfimide group. Oxidation of stannyl sulfide by hydrogen peroxide yielded γ-trimethylstannyl sulfoxide, Me₃Sn(CH₂)₃S(O)C₅H₁₁-n (under mild conditions) or γ-trimethylstannyl sulfone (under more severe conditions).

Trans-cis Photoisomerization of 1-Methyl-4-(4′-hydroxystyryl)pyridinium in inclusion complexes ofβ-cyclodextrin and its derivatives

The effects of -cyclodextrin (-CyD), heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)--cyclodextrin (DMCyD) and heptakis(2,3,6-tri-O-methyl)--cyclodextrin (TMCyD) ontrans-cis photoisomerization of 1-ethyl-4-(4-hydroxystyryl)pyridinium (POH) have been studied in aqueous solutions. The ratio of [cis]/[trans] for POH in the photostationary state at pH 8.54 was remarkably reduced by the presence of CyD or DMCyD. The reduction of the [cis]/[trans] ratio in the photostationary state was explained in terms of the shift of the equilibrium of POH ₊ ^trans PO _trans + H^– toward PO _trans formation. The binding constants of CyD and DMCyD for PO _trans were 2.00- and 1.36-fold larger than those for POH ₊ ^trans , respectively. The binding constants of TMCyD for both species are much smaller than those of CyD and DMCyD. This result indicates that PO _trans , which has a betain structure, forms stable complexes with CyD and DMCyD with its hydrophobic parts inside and the charged parts outside the CyD cavities.
