Extending the possibility of an N-Troc-protected sialic acid donor toward variant sialo-glycoside synthesis

The potential of an N-Troc-protected sialic acid donor, equipped with phenylsulfenyl functionality as a leaving group, has been explored. As a result, the entitled donor was proven to be highly reactive and to have broad applicability toward the synthesis of variant sialo-glycans, which have N-glycolyl, de-N-acetyl, 1,5-lactam and 8-O-sulfo sialic acid analogs.

飞秒激光脉冲在三能级有机分子介质中传播时的频谱分析

通过采用预估校正的时域有限差分法求解麦克斯韦-布洛赫方程,我们研究了飞秒激光脉冲在三能级有机分子(4,4-二甲氨基二苯乙烯分子)介质中传播时脉冲的频谱演化情况.在单光子共振情况下,即入射脉冲频率等于1、2能级之间的共振频率,对大面积入射脉冲,由于强的二次激发的作用,电场频谱中出现了在ω32附近振荡的频率成分,ω32是2、3能级之间的共振频率,说明对大面积入射脉冲二能级模型已经失效,需要采用多能级模型来描述分子介质.在双光子共振情况下,即入射脉冲频率等于1、3能级之间的共振频率的一半,由于介质中放大的自发辐射和四波混频的作用,部分入射脉冲能量转化为高频和低频电场成分的能量,分子介质表现出了很强的光功率限幅特性.     

Recent studies on phosphorus-bridging carbonyl derivatives: organophosphorus analogs of aldehydes and ketones

Reactions of disodium tetracarbonylferrate, Na₂Fe(CO)₄, with sterically hindered dialkylaminodichlorophosphines, R₂NPCl₂ (R₂N=diisopropylamino, dicyclohexylamino, and 2,2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidino) in diethyl ether lead to the air-stable phosphorus-bridging carbonyl derivatives (R₂NP)₂COFe₂(CO)₆ as the major products. The phosphorus-bridging carbonyl group in (i-Pr₂NP)₂COFe₂(CO)₆ has been found to undergo the following types of reactions: 1)Reduction, 2)Acylation, 3)Extrusion of the carbonyl group. The mechanisms of the reactions have been considered.This work was presented at the Workshop «The Modern Problems of Heteroorganic Chemistry» held on the ship «Nikolai Bauman» during the period May 8–13, 1993.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

氧化苯乙烯和氧化二苯乙烯的区域选择性和立体选择性开环

本文报道 NaBH_4-CoCl_2可使氧化苯乙烯类化合物发生区域选择性开环,主要生成β-苯乙醇衍生物。对于氧化二苯乙烯类化合物,由于受到苯环的空间阻碍,使其开环能力减弱,如反式氧化二苯乙烯比顺式异构体更难于开环。     

Syntheses of Two Potential Ligands for Tc-99m Labeling as Diagnosis Agents of Alzheimer''''s Disease

Two types of ligands-biphenyl and stilbene derivatives, whichcan be labeled with Tc-99m for the diagnosis of Alzheimer'sdisease (AD) have been synthesized successfully. The key stepsin these two syntheses involved Suzuki reaction and Wittig reac-tion respectively. The new discovered debromination reactionmay be expanded to the compounds with double or triple bondadjacent to the carbon atom bearing the bromine atoms. Thesetypes of syntheses provide a route to a series of biphenyl andstilbene derivatives that will benefit the search of new imagingagents for AD.

A New Tool in Peptide Engineering: A Photoswitchable Stilbene‐type β‐Hairpin Mimetic

Peptide secondary structure mimetics are important tools in medicinal chemistry, as they provide analogues of endogenous peptides with new physicochemical and pharmacological properties. The development, synthesis, photochemical investigation, and conformational analysis of a stilbene‐type β‐hairpin mimetic capable of light‐triggered conformational changes have been achieved. In addition to standard spectroscopic techniques (nuclear Overhauser effects, amide temperature coefficients, circular dichroism spectroscopy), the applicability of self‐diffusion measurements (longitudinal eddy current delay pulsed‐field gradient spin echo (LED‐PGSE) NMR technique) in conformational studies of oligopeptides is demonstrated. The title compound shows photoisomerization of the stilbene chromophore, resulting in a change in solution conformation between an unfolded structure and a folded β‐hairpin.     

Synthesis of diastereomeric 3-hydroxy-4-pyrrolidinyl derivatives of nucleobases

The work deals with the synthesis of hydroxypyrrolidine analogs of nucleosides. Starting from the optically pure l- or d-tartaric acid, we improved the synthesis of enantiomeric trans-3,4-dihydroxypyrrolidines and elaborated a procedure for the synthesis of all possible diastereoisomers of 3-hydroxy-4-pyrrolidinyl derivatives of both purine and pyrimidine nucleobases. The prepared compounds were tested for cytostatic and antiviral properties but no significant activity was found.
