On products of reaction of imidazole with benzoyl chloride under conditions of the Regel-Buchel reaction

The reaction of imidazole with benzoyl chloride in pyridine affordedcis-1,2-bis(benzoyl-amino)ethylene (1) rather than 2-benzoylimidazole, as has been suggested previously. The structure of1 was confirmed by¹H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction study. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1593–1595, August, 1998.     

Interactions of aliphatic β-amino-β-trifluoromethylvinyl ketones with ethylenediamine

The reactions of aliphatic β-amino-β-trifluoromethylvinyl ketones with an excess of ethylenediamine at room temperature afforded the corresponding 2,3-dihydro-1H-1,4-diazepines or substituted 2-acetonyl-2-trifluoromethylimidazolidines (the latter were obtained when the approach to the carbonyl group was sterically hindered).

Interaction of (1-phenylethyl)indole-2-carbonitrile with C-nucleophiles

Methods of obtaining ketones and enamino esters have been developed on the basis of reactions of 1-(1-phenylethyl)indole-2-carbonitrile with organomagnesium and organozinc compounds. Removal of a benzyl group from the indole nitrogen atom by the Grignard reagent has been discovered. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1179–1183, August, 2006.     

OH radical oxidation of the sorbitylfurfural furanic ring to sugar derivatives induced by radiolysis in aerobic environment

Chemical radiolytic oxidation induced by OH addition on 1-(2-furan-2-yl-5-hydroxy-6-hydroxymethyl-[1,3]dioxan-4-yl)-ethan-1,2-diol (sorbitylfurfural, SF) leads, in the presence of controlled amounts of oxygen, to a permanent functional modification of the target molecule. The yield of conversion reaches 60% of the starting material. LC-MS analysis allowed the identification, as final products, of carboxylic acids, butenal and hydroxy-furan derivatives in which the sugar chain remains unbroken, while the furanic ring is attacked first by OH and then by oxygen, giving in succession an intra-/inter-molecular rearrangement of the allylperoxyl radicals thus formed. The proposed oxidation of the furanic ring envisages the peroxyl intermediates undergoing mono- and/or bi-molecular reactions; a reaction path has been outlined and is reported here. The presence of unsaturated bonds in the final products could provide a further site for radical scavenger activity. Therefore, the fast reaction with O₂ and the rearrangement of the produced peroxyl radicals to species, which are likely to be effective OH-capturers, reinforces the antioxidant ability of SF.     

The effective use of substituted benzoic anhydrides for the synthesis of carboxamides

Various carboxamides are synthesized from the corresponding carboxylic acids and amines with high product-selectivities using 2-methyl-6-nitrobenzoic or 2,4,6-trichlorobenzoic anhydride in the presence of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine.     

Comparison between adsorption isotherm determination techniques and overloaded band profiles on four batches of monolithic columns

The adsorption isotherms of 4-tert.-butyl phenol were measured on four different monolithic columns, using three different techniques, classical frontal analysis (FA), the perturbation on a plateau method (PP) and the recently introduced numerical procedure known as the inverse numerical method (IN). This last approach requires only the recording of a few overloaded profiles and has the potential advantage of affording a dramatic decrease of the amounts of compounds, solvent, and time needed to determine accurate estimates of the coefficients of the isotherm. The reproducibility of the adsorption data measured on the four columns is discussed with reference to the specific techniques used for obtaining these data and to the most suitable equation used for modeling them. The data obtained for the different columns were highly consistent. The inverse numerical approach was confirmed to provide a powerful, accurate, and economic method for measuring single component adsorption data.

The influence of methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane on the sol-gel process of TEOS

The influence of MPS on the hydrolysis and condensation process of TEOS is studied by means of hydrolysis time (t _H) and gelation time (t _G) curves. The addition of MPS to a mixture of TEOS, ethanol and water results in a substantial increase in t _G. The increase is most pronounced when adding takes place in the acid step of the sol-gel process of TEOS.In acid environment hydrolysis of MPS will be dominant compared to hydrolysis of TEOS. This results in an effective decrease of the amount of water available for the hydrolysis of TEOS. However, this decrease in water concentration cannot explain the complete effect of the addition of MPS. The hydrolysed MPS will also be incorporated in the gel network and will strongly influence the cross-linking ability. The lesser functionality of MPS compared to TEOS and the steric hindrance of the acrylate group results in a large increase in t _G.     

Reactions of hexamethylditin and trimethyltin sulfide withN-thio-derivatives of phthalimide

The initial formation of organotin derivatives with Sn-S-N bonds in heterolytic reactions of hexamethylditin or trimethyltin sulfide withN-(chlorothio)phthalimide is suggested. Subsequent interaction of these compounds with sulfenyl chloride affordsN, N-thioorN, N-dithiobisphthalimide. Homolytic reaction of hexamethylditin withN, N-dithiobisphthalimide also occursvia an organotin intermediate, which, in the absence of a nucleophilic reagent, eliminates sulfur and converts intoN-trimethylstannylphthalimide.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
