A new convenient synthesis of phenanthrene alkaloids from 1-arylmethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines

Hofmann degradation of 1-arylmethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2,2-dimethylisoquinolinium iodides with methanolic KOH gave stilbene derivatives, for example, (E)-N-2{2-[2-(phenyl)ethenyl]-4,5-dimethoxyphenyl}ethyl-N,N-dimethylamine. Photochemical electrocyclization of these stilbenes afforded the corresponding phenanthrene alkaloids/phenanthrene derivatives.

Microcalorimetry as a possible tool for phenanthrene toxicity evaluation to eukaryotic cells

Microcalorimetry and measurement of culture turbidity using a Bioscreen C Analyzer System were applied to study the toxic effect of phenanthrene on Cunninghamella elegans IM 1785/21Gp spore germination. The results of C. elegans spore incubation in Bioscreen C microbiology reader showed the inhibition of spore germination by 70% (with 25 mg l⁻¹ of phenanthrene) and total inhibition of the fungus growth with a higher content of the xenobiotic (50-100 mg l⁻¹). The microcalorimetric technique showed to be useful for the estimation of metabolic activity of C. elegans spores in growth medium up to xenobiotic concentrations of 90 mg l⁻¹. These data corresponded with the microscopic observations. The obtained results showed that the microcalorimetry method could be a valuable supplement in the study on the mechanism of PAHs detoxification by fungi.     

蔥与菲的激发等离子体质谱的分析和比较

蒽和菲是一对同分异构体,由于它们的结构都很稳定,所以在常规的电子轰击质谱中,它们的分子离子峰都很突出,两者的谱图没有明显的差异,不能成为一种鉴别手段.我们最近在自制的仪器上,记录了以近红外激光作用于这两个稠环芳香烃所产生的正负离子质谱,两者的谱图具有明显的不同,其中包含了较为丰富的结构信息,显示了这一研究手段的结构分析能力。     

The use of the DPE radical polymerization method for the synthesis of chromophore-labelled polymers and block copolymers

Two analogues of diphenylethene carrying phenanthrene (1-(9-phenanthryl)-1-phenylethene (PPE)) and anthracene (1-(2-anthryl)-1-phenylethene (APE)) units were used in radical polymerization of styrene (St) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) at 80 °C using AIBN as initiator. Because of the nature of the polymerization, the resulting polymers possess the corresponding chromophoric groups. Using the methodology of a DPE system, these labelled polymers were further used for the synthesis of block copolymers. In this way poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(styrene) and poly(methyl methacrylate)-b-poly(acrylonitrile) with molar masses of 60,000-90,000 g/mol were synthesized. Incorporation of the chromophoric groups into both homo- and block copolymers was confirmed by spectral measurements.     

土壤有机质对菲的吸附-解吸平衡的影响

以自然土壤和过氧化氢分级土壤为实验模拟样品,测定了菲在这些样品上的吸附一解吸等温线,用线性和Freundlich模型拟合了这些等温线．^13C NMR谱表明,随着土壤有机质腐殖化程度的加深,有机质将含有较多的长链烷烃化合物,含氧、氮化合物有所减少,芳香环的数量变化不大．吸附实验结果表明,土壤有机质含量与菲的吸附容量存在一定的线性相关关系．有机质腐殖质化程度较深的样品比原土壤具有更大的吸附容量,其吸附等温线表现出更为明显的非线性,而且具有更明显的解吸滞后现象．说明土壤中一些结构紧密和含极性官能团较少的有机质是引起菲的非线性吸附过程和解吸滞后现象的主要原因。     

An expedient one-pot synthesis of novel 10-substituted 9-aminophenanthrenes

An efficient synthesis of 9,10-disubstituted phenanthrenes is described in this Letter. These novel useful building blocks were obtained in a one-pot reaction including Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling followed by a Dieckmann-Thorpe ring closure under microwave irradiation. The selection of the appropriate reagents and the optimal reaction conditions to isolate the intermediate biphenyl compound or the final substituted phenanthrenes in high yields will be discussed in this Letter.     

New biphenantherene and nervogenic acid derivatives from Liparis regnieri Finet and their inhibitory activities against NF-κB activation

A phytochemical investigation of the whole plant of Liparis regnieri Finet led to the isolation of one new biphenantherene (1) and ten new nervogenic acid derivatives (2–11), together with nine known compounds. Their structures were elucidated mainly by extensive analyses of 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data and chemical reactions. Additionally, for the first time a previously unreported biphenantherene was discovered to effectively suppress TNF-α induced expression of NF-κB-Luc in Hela cells with the IC₅₀ value of 1.80 μM and the structure-activity relationshipwas also discussed.     

Solubility of polycyclic aromatics in binary solvent mixtures using activity coefficient models

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) precipitation is one of the major problems in the hydrocracking units. In this investigation, pyrene and phenanthrene were selected because they were found to be in higher concentrations in the feed to hydrocracking units. Their solubilities were investigated in toluene solvent mixture of iso-octane and heptane over a temperature range from 293 to 323 K. The experimental solubility data were used to predict the interaction parameters for seven different solid–liquid equilibrium models. The following activity coefficient models were used; Wilson, NIBS/Redlich–Kister, UNIQUAC, modified UNIFAC, modified UNIFAC (Dortmund), Flory–Huggins and Sheng. The interaction parameters were expressed as a second-order polynomial function in temperature. In order to test the models, the average absolute deviation percentage (AADP) was used. The overall AADP was found to range from approximately 7 to 14%. The models can be arranged according to their accuracy in a descending order based on AADP as follows: NIBS/Redlich–Kister, Wilson, UNIQUAC, Sheng, Flory–Huggins, modified UNIFAC (Dortmund) and finally modified UNIFAC. All models used in this work gave reasonable results; however, the group contribution models can also be used as a predictive tool for the solubility measurement of pyrene and phenanthrene in other solvents containing the same groups of the solvents used in this study.
