Etorphine‐Related Ferrocenyl‐Substituted Morphinan Alkaloids

The two diastereoisomeric ferrocenyl‐substituted orvinols 2 and 3 were prepared. The modified alkaloids are still able to interact with opioid receptors (see Table). The ferrocene moiety allows highly selective and sensitive electrochemical detection. The X‐ray crystal structure of the major isomer 2 was determined. The combination of a metallocene and a morphinan alkaloid holds promise for useful antitumor activity.     

Die Schmelzdiagramme der Systeme CsN3/Zn(N3)2 und KN3/Zn(N3)2

The phase diagrams of the systems CsN₃/Zn(N₃)₂ and KN₃/Zn(N₃)₂ have been obtained employing the microscopic technique ofL. Kofler andA. Kofler. Within the system CsN₃/Zn(N₃)₂ three eutectics at 148°C, 142°C, and 210°C were found. Besides Cs₂Zn(N₃)₄, melting incongruently in the interval 153°C to 170°C, there exist two further compounds of the most probable composition Cs₃Zn₂(N₃)₇ and CsZn₂(N₃)₅, melting congruently at 170°C and 210°C, resp. In the system KN₃/Zn(N₃)₂ there exist two eutectics at 203°C and 172°C and two compounds, one of them, i.e. K₂Zn(N₃)₄, melting congruently at 206°C, the other one, with composition KZn₃(N₃)₇ or KZn₄(N₃)₉, melting incongruently at 210°C.

On the reaction of 4-substituted trimethyltin aromatics with perchlorylfluoride

To evaluate the suitability of [¹⁸F]perchorylfluoride [¹⁸F]FClO₃ as an electrophilic fluorination agent for the preparation of radiopharmaceuticals, the reactivity non-radioactive FClO₃ towards 4-substituted trimethyltin aromatic compounds was studied. Contrary to the expectation, an electrophilic fluorination of the aromatic nucleus did not occur. The reaction of perchlorylfluoride with aromatic trimethylstannyl compounds resulted in the formation of trimethyltin fluoride and the respective destannylated aromatics in variable yields.     

Hemicucurbit[6]uril a Macrocyclic Ligand with Unusual Complexing Properties

The complex formation of the macrocyclic ligand hemicucurbit[6]uril with various salts has been studied in aqueous solution. Due to the low solubility of this ligand the formation of complexes results in an increase of the amount of ligand present in solution. From these measurements the stability constants of the complexes formed are calculated. Hemicucurbit[6]uril only forms cation complexes with cobalt(II), nickel(II) and the uranylion. All other cations examined e.g. silver(I), lead(II) and copper(II) do not form detectable complexes in aqueous solution. For a better understanding of the complexation behaviour some quantum mechanical chemical calculations are performed with Gaussian.Dedicated to Prof. H. Möhwald on the occasion of his 60th birthday.     

Pattern-specific neural network design

We present evidence that the performance of the traditional fully connected Hopfield model can be dramatically improved by carefully selecting an information-specific connectivity structure, while the synaptic weights of the selected connections are the same as in the Hopfield model. Starting from a completely disconnected network we let genuine Hebbian synaptic connections grow, one by one, until a desired degree of stability is achieved. Neural pathways are thus fixed notbefore, butduring the learning phase.
