Measurement and correlation of solid–liquid phase equilibria for binary and ternary systems consisting of N-vinylpyrrolidone, 2-pyrrolidone and water

The solid–liquid equilibria(SLE)for binary and ternary systems consisting of N-Vinylpyrrolidone(NVP),2-Pyrrolidone(2-P)and water are measured.The phase diagrams of NVP(1)+2-P(2),NVP(1)+water(2),NVP(1)+2-P(2)+1 wt%water(3)and NVP(1)+2-P(2)+2 wt%water(3)are identified as simple eutectic type with the eutectic points at 263.75 K(x_(1E)=0.5427),251.65 K(x_(1E)=0.3722),260.25 K(x_(1E)=0.5031)and256.55 K(x_(1E)=0.4684),respectively.The phase diagram of 2-P(1)+water(2)has two eutectic points(x_(1E)=0.1236,T_E=259.15 K and x_(1E)=0.7831,T_E=286.15 K)and one congruent melting point(x_(1C)=0.4997,T_C=303.55 K)because of the generation of a congruently melting addition compound:2-P·H_2O.The ideal solubility and the UNIFAC models were applied to predict the SLE,while the Wilson and NRTL models were employed in correlating the experimental data.The best correlation of the SLE data has been obtained by the Wilson model for the binary system of NVP+2-P.The UNIFAC model gives more satisfactory predictions than the ideal solubility model.     

Facile and convenient synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted and 2,3,4-trisubstituted 1,3-thiazoles

An efficient route for the synthesis of (E)-2-(2-(2-nitrobenzylidene)-hydrazinyl)-4-phenylthiazol-3-ium bromide, (E)-2-(2(substituted benzylidene)hydrazinyl)-4-phenylthiazoles and (E)-4-(4-bromophenyl)-2-(cycloalkylidenehydrazono)-3-phenyl-2,3-dihydrothiazoles by reaction of 1-aryl-2-bromoethanones with 2-(1-substituted methylidene)hydrazinecarbothioamides and cycloalkylidene-N-phenyl-hydrazinecarbothioamides. The structure of the products has been confirmed by using IR, NMR, mass spectrometry and single-crystal X-ray analyses.     

Synthesis and antibacterial activity of certain quinoline and quinazoline derivatives containing sulfide and sulfone moieties

Some aryl and/or heterocyclic mercaptans were allowed to react with 8-quinolyl chloroacetate (II), 8-quinolinoxyacetyl chloride (IV) and 3-(2′-chloroethyl)-2-methyl-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-4-one (X) in dry benzene and/or sodium hydroxide in absolute ethanol to give corresponding 8-quinolyl-α-mercaptoacetate (V), 8-quinolinoxythioacetate (VI) and 3-(2′-arylmercaptoethyl)-2-methyl-4-(3H)quinazolin-4-ones or 3-(2′-heterocyclicmercaptoethyl)-2-methyl-4(3H)-quinazolin-4-ones (XIa-h). The mercaptans V and XI were subjected to oxidation with hydrogen peroxide/acetic acid mixture (1:2) to afford the corresponding sulfones VII and XII. The structures of the synthesized compounds were elucidated by spectroscopic (IR and ¹H-NMR) and elemental analyses. Some of these compounds were tested for their antimicrobial activities in comparison with tetracycline as a reference compound.     

Soil transformation of wheat and corn metabolites mboa and DIM2BOA into aminophenoxazinones

The defensive cyclic hydroxamates 7-methoxy-2,4-dihydroxy-1,4(2H)-benzoxazin-3-one (DIMBOA) and 7,8-dimethoxy-2,4-dihydroxy-1,4(2H)-benzoxazin-3-one (DIM₂BOA) of wheat and corn are transformed in nonsterile soil, via 6-methoxy-2(3H)-benzoxazolone (MBOA) and 6,7-dimethoxy-2(3H)-benzoxazolone (M₂BOA) respectively, into 2-amino-7-methoxy-3H-phenoxazin-3-one and 2-amino-4,6,7-trimethoxy-3H-phenoxazin-3-one. The soil transformation is similar of that undergone by the rye metabolite 2(3H)-benzoxazolone (BOA) into 2-amino-3H-phenoxazin-3-one. The transformations to phenoxazinones are not observed in sterile soil. The 2-amino-3H-phenoxazin-3-one inhibits barnyard grass radicle elongation, but the methoxylated aminophenoxazinones are not significantly inhibitory.

Crystallography and equilibrium solubility for ammonium and potassium orthophosphites and hypophosphites

The composition and solubility properties of eight ammonium and potassium orthophosphites and hypophosphites were determined to evaluate the potential of these classes of materials for increasing the plant nutrient content of liquid fertilizers. Phase relationships for the systems (NH₄)₂O-P₂O₃-H₂O, K₂O-P₂O₃-H₂O, (NH₄)₂O-P₂O-H₂O, and K₂O-P₂O-H₂O were determined along with the crystallographic properties (X-ray and optical) of the solid phases. Toxicity and phosphite response was tested in greenhouse experiments for the compounds.     

Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Properties of Tridentate NNO, NNS and NNN Donor Thiazole-Derived Furanyl, Thiophenyl and Pyrrolyl Schiff Bases and Their Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) Metal Chelates

2-Aminothiazole undergoes condensation reactions with furane-, thiophene- and pyrrole-2-carboxylaldehyde to give tridentate NNO, NNS and NNN Schiff bases respectively. These tridentate Schiff bases formed complexes of the type [M (L)(2)]X(2) where [M=Co(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) or Zn(II), L=N-(2-furanylmethylene)-2-aminothiazole (L(1)), N-(2-thiophenylmethylene)-2-aminothiazole (L(2), N-(2-pyrrolylmethylene)-2-aminothiazole (L(3)) and X=Cl. The structures of these Schiff bases and of their complexes have been determined on the basis of their physical, analytical and spectral data. The screening results of these compounds indicated them to possess excellent antibacterial activity against tested pathogenic bacterial organisms e.g., Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureous and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. However, in comparison, their metal chelates have been shown to possess more antibacterial activity than the uncomplexed Schiff bases.     

Anionic Pd(0) and Pd(II) intermediates in palladium-catalyzed Heck and cross-coupling reactions

The anions of PdCl(2)L(2) and Pd(OAc)(2), precursors of palladium(0) used in cross-coupling and Heck reactions, play a crucial role in these reactions. Tricoordinated anionic complexes Pd(0)L(2)Cl(-) and Pd(0)L(2)(OAc)(-) are the effective catalysts instead of the usually postulated Pd(0)L(2) complex. The anion ligated to the palladium(0) affects the kinetics of the oxidative addition to ArI as well as the structure and reactivity of the arylpalladium(II) complexes produced in this reaction. Thus, pentacoordinated anionic complexes are formed, ArPdI(Cl)L(2)(-) or ArPdI(OAc)L(2)(-), the precursor of neutral trans-ArPd(OAc)L(2), instead of the usually postulated trans-ArPdIL(2) complex (L = PPh(3)).     

Highly refractive polyimides containing pyridine and sulfur units: synthesis and thermal,mechanical, solubility and optical properties

Two series of isomers containing pyridine and sulfur unit aromatic diamine monomers, 4,4′‐bis(5‐amino‐2‐pyridinylsulfanyl)diphenyl sulfide ( 2a ), 4,4′‐bis(6‐amino‐3‐pyridinylsulfanyl)diphenyl sulfide ( 2b ) and 4,4′‐bis(5‐amino‐6‐methyl‐2‐pyridinylsulfanyl)diphenyl sulfide ( 2c ), 4,4′‐bis(5‐amino‐4‐methyl‐2‐pyridinylsulfanyl)diphenyl sulfide ( 2d ), were designed and synthesized. Aimed at clarifying the structure–property relationships of pyridine‐ and sulfur‐containing high refractive polymers, 2a was polymerized with various dianhydrides to prepare polyimides PI ‐1?PI ‐7 and 2b , 2c , 2d were reacted with 4,4′‐[p ‐thiobis(phenylenesulfanyl)]diphthalic anhydride to prepare polyimides PI ‐8?PI ‐10. The polyimides showed excellent optical properties with average refractive indices ranging from 1.7006 to 1.7620 and birefringence as low as 0.0056. Meanwhile, comparative studies on their properties including solubility, thermal and mechanical, and optical transparency properties were performed. Some property differences of the isomers caused by the sequence changes were found. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry     

Interaction of Some Non-Platinum Metal Anticancer Complexes With Nucleotides and DNA and The Two-Pole Complementary Principle (TPCP) Arising Therefrom

The binding modes of some non-platinum metal anticancer complexes, Cp(2)TiCl(2), Cp(2)ZrCl(2), (CH(3))(2)SnCl(2), (C(2)H(5))(2)SnCl(2), (C(2)H(5))(2)SnCl(2)(phen) (phen=Phenanthroline) and cis-Ru(II)Cl(2)(DMSO)(3) (DMSO) (cis-RDT) with nucleotides and DNA in aqueous solution at physiological pH values were investigated by various modern techniques. 5'-dGMP with Cp(2)TiCl(2) or cis-RDT forms chelate complexes in which both N(7) and phosphate of dGMP bind to the metal center. Whereas Cp(2)ZrCl(2) and all the diorganotin compounds can bind dGMP only via the phosphate group. The investigations of the interactions between Cp(2)TiCl(2) or (C(2)H(5))(2)SnCl(2) and DNA indicate that there are two types of binding sites on DNA for Cp(2)TiCl(2), i.e., the base nitrogen rings and the phosphate group, while (C(2)H(5))(2)SnCl(2) can bind to DNA only via the phosphate group. At last, by carefully comparing and analysing the binding modes-activity relationships of the above anticancer complexes and other non-platinum and platinum anticancer complexes, a hypothesis named "Two-Pole Complementary Principle" was put forward.

Nrf2 and Redox Status in Prediabetic and Diabetic Patients

The redox status associated with nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) was evaluated in prediabetic and diabetic subjects. Total antioxidant status (TAS) in plasma and erythrocytes, glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content and activity of antioxidant enzymes were measured as redox status markers in 259 controls, 111 prediabetics and 186 diabetic type 2 subjects. Nrf2 was measured in nuclear extract fractions from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Nrf2 levels were lower in prediabetic and diabetic patients. TAS, GSH and activity of glutamate cysteine ligase were lower in diabetic subjects. An increase of MDA and superoxide dismutase activity was found in diabetic subjects. These results suggest that low levels of Nrf2 are involved in the development of oxidative stress and redox status disbalance in diabetic patients.

Ligand effects on dioxygen activation by copper and nickel complexes: reactivity and intermediates

Copper and nickel complexes having various active-oxygen species M n -O 2 ( n = 1 or 2), such as trans-(micro-1,2-peroxo)Cu (II) 2, bis(micro-oxo)M (III) 2, bis(micro-superoxo)Ni (II) 2, and ligand-based alkylperoxo-M (II) n , can be produced by a series of tetradentate tripodal ligands (TMPA analogues) containing sterically demanding 6-methyl substituent(s) on the pyridyl group(s), where TMPA = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine. Roles of the methyl substituent(s) for the formation of the active-oxygen species and their oxidation reactivities are reported.     

Preparation and 29Si NMR spectroscopical investigations of (diethylamino)-methylchlorotetra- and pentasilanes

The treatment of several branched methylchlorooligosilanes (Si₄, Si₅) with diethylamine leads to a partial or complete substitution of the chloro substituents for diethylamino groups under formation of the first known (diethylamino)-methylchlorooligosilanes containing more than two Si atoms. The condensation of (Et₂N)₂MeSi SiMeCl(NEt₂) ( 1d ) with Li in THF yields the linear tetrasilane (Et₂N)₂MeSi SiMe(NEt₂) SiMe(NEt₂) SiMe(Et₂N)₂( 2a ). The NMR investigations provided information of the general shift ranges of several Si units in (diethylamino)-methylchlorooligosilane systems as well as the number of stereoisomers of the prepared products.     

Polyhydrides of Sc,Zr and Hf and Their Proposed Formation.

Hydrogenation at 500 psi of (PNP)Sc(CH₃)₂ results in formation of a trinuclear polyhydride complex [(PNP)Sc]₃(μ₂-H)₄(μ₃-H)₂ ( 1 ) in 55 % yield. The solid-state structure shows a non-symmetric trinuclear species resulting from one pincer phosphine arm being demetallated, and where two hydrides bridge all three Sc centers, whereas the other four bridge two. Hydrogenation of (PNP)Zr(CH₃)₃ at 200 psi results instead in formation of a dinclear polyhydride species [(PNP)Zr(H)]₂(μ₂-H)₄ ( 2 ). Conducting the hydrogenation at atmospheric pressure, resulted instead in formation of the bridging methylidene complex [(PNP)Zr(CH₃)]₂(μ₂-H)₂(μ₂-CH₂) ( 3 ), which cleanly converted to 2 , upon hydrogenation at higher pressure. Both 2 and 3 were also structurally characterized. Hydrogenation of (PNP)Hf(CH₃)₃ at 200 psi resulted in incomplete hydrogenation with some formation of dinuclear mono- and dimethyl-polyhydride complexes [(PNP)Hf(CH₃)]₂(μ₂-H)₄ ( 4 ) and [(PNP)Hf(CH₃)][(PNP)Hf(H)](μ₂-H)₄ ( 5 ), which were identified by solid-state X-ray structural studies. Based on these results, we propose a pathway for the complete hydrogenation of (PNP)Zr(CH₃)₃ to 2 .     

Homolytic cleavage and aggregation processes in cyclopentadienylchromium chemistry

The reactivity of the cyclopentadienylchromium tricarbonyl dimer [CpCr(CO)3]2 (Cp = C5H5, 1) toward several classes of organo-P-, -S- and -N-compounds will be described. The organic substrates include the following: (i) bis(diphenylthiophosphinyl)disulfane, R2P(S)SSP(S)R2; (ii) bis(thiophosphoryl)disulfane, (RO)2P(S)SSP(S)(OR)2; (iii) tetraalkylthiuram disulfides, R2NC(S)SSC(S)NR2; (iv) tetraalkyldiphosphine disulfides, R2P(S)P(S)R2; (v) dibenzothiazolyl disulfide, (C6H4NSC)2; and (vi) Lawesson's reagent, (CH3OC6H4)2P2S4. The primary products, namely, the complexes CpCr(CO)2(SPR2), CpCr(CO)2)(S2CNR2), CpCr(CO)2(SCSN(C6H4)), and CpCr(CO)2(SPC6H4OCH3), containing the thiophosphinito, dithiocarbamate, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, and dithiophosphorane ligands, respectively, arise from facile cleavage of the S-S, P-P, and P-S bonds in the organic substrates. Further treatment of these complexes with 1 under thermal activation results in cleavage of C-X (X = N, S), P-S, and Cr-E (E = C, N, P, S) bonds, accompanied by C-C and P-P bond formation in some cases, generating a variety of organometallic compounds belonging to the phosphido, phosphinidene, thiocarbenoid, dithiooxamide, aminocarbyne, aminoalkenylacyl, and cuboidal types.

Synthesis and characterization of novel glucose- and lactose-containing methacrylate-based radiopaque glycopolymers

Two kinds of glucose- and lactose-containing methacrylate-based radiopaque glycopolymers (MGI and MLI) were synthesized and characterized. The first glycopolymer was prepared from 2-(2′,3′,4′,6′-tetra-O-acetyl-β-d-glucosyloxy)ethyl methacrylate (AcGEMA), 2-(2′-iodobenzoyl)-ethyl methacrylate (2-IEMA) and methyl methacrylate (MMA) via bulk radical polymerization, followed by the deacetylation. The second glycopolymer was synthesized directly from 2-lactobionamidoethyl methacrylate (LAMA), 2-IEMA and MMA via radical polymerization in DMSO. The cleavage of the ester bond in 2-IEMA of MGI was determined by ¹H NMR analysis during the deacetylation. The in vitro radiopacity of these glycopolymers was demonstrated with both an X-ray detector and a CT scanner. The in vivo CT-imaging tests performed by intravenous administration of a saline solution containing the selected MLI sample in a mouse model exhibited enhanced visibility of the liver and kidney organs.
