Atmospheric oxidation of isoprene produces significant yields of eight unique nitrate 11 compounds, each with a β- or δ-hydroxy group. These isoprene hydroxy nitrates (ISOPNs) 12 significantly impact upon global NOx budgets, O3 levels, and aerosol formation. 13 Uncertainties exist, however, in our understanding of ISOPN chemistry, particularly in their 14 yields from the reaction of isoprene peroxyl radicals with NO. This study describes novel 15 isomerization reactions of the ISOPNs, identified through the application of computational 16 chemistry techniques. These reactions produce saturated polycyclic orthonitrite compounds 17 via attack of the R–NO2 group on the vinyl moiety. For the δ-hydroxy nitrates, low-energy 18 isomerization pathways exist to six-membered ring compounds that are around 5 kcal mol-1 19 exothermic. These reactions proceed with barriers around 15 kcal mol-1 below the 20 respective peroxyl radical + NO reactants and yield orthonitrites that can further isomerize 21 to β-hydroxy ISOPNs. Moreover, the δ-hydroxy nitrates can directly interconvert with their β 22 substituted counterparts via NO3 group migration, with barriers that are lower yet. It follows 23 that β-hydroxy nitrates may be stabilized in the δ-hydroxy form, and vice versa. Moreover, 24 the lowest-energy pathway for dissociation of the δ-hydroxy ISOPNs is for the formation of 25 β-hydroxy alkoxyl radicals, and because of this established branching fractions between the 26 various isoprene peroxyl radicals may require re-evaluation. The results presented here also 27 suggest that ISOPNs may be stabilized to some extent in their saturated orthonitrite forms, 28 which has implications for both the total nitrate yield and for their subsequent removal by 29 OH, O3, and photolysis.<br><br>

The present paper studies the effect of the modification of heterocyclic base, sugar moiety and the presence of phosphate group on the nucleoside acceptors in the synthesis of dinucleoside phosphates from adenosine 2',3'-cyclic phosphate as donor, catalyzed by nonspecific acidic extracellular and intracellular ribonucleases from Penicillium claviforme. The enzyme binds specifically the acceptor molecule, preferring cytosine nucleosides. It requires the presence of the whole sugar moiety, an exact mutual orientation of the heterocyclic base and the reaction center (5'-hydroxy group), and a suitable conformation of the acceptor molecule. The enzyme-acceptor bond is homochiral and the presence of the N3-H group in the pyrimidine ring is important. The reaction between the donor and the acceptor is bimolecular and is competitively inhibited by some purine nucleosides.

Alkaline saponification of the 3-acetoxy group in 3,4a-disubstituted 4,4-dimethyl-5,6β-epoxy-A-homo-5βcholestane derivatives I-VI was studied. It was found that the 3α- and 4aα-hydroxy groups participated in the cleavage of the 5β,6β-epoxide ring in the derivatives II-IV: the 5(O)n participation by the 3α-hydroxy group (the derivatives III and IV) led to formation of the transannular 3α,5α-epoxides XII and XIV whereas the participation by the 4aα-hydroxy group (the derivatives II and IV) gave rise to the 4aα,5α-epoxides IX and XV. The 5(O)n participation by the 3α-hydroxy group predominated over the preparation by the 4aα-hydroxy group. In the case of the 4a-keto epoxides V and VI the retroaldol-aldol type isomerization led to formation of 3β-hydroxy-4,4-dimethyl-5,6β-epoxy-A-homo-5β-cholestan-4a-one as the main component of the equilibration mixtures.

Addition of 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol to 3β-hydroxy-5α-androst-15-en-17-one gave the mixture of isomeric 15-(4-methoxyphenyl)methoxy derivatives from which, after acetylation and chromatography, the major 15β isomer was separated. Borohydride reduction gave 17β-hydroxy derivative which was protected as methoxymethyl ether. Oxidative cleavage of protecting group at position 15 and the subsequent Jones oxidation afforded corresponding 15-ketone. Its oximation with O-(carboxymethyl)hydroxylamine, deacetylation and methylation with diazomethane gave protected O-(carboxymethyl)oxime derivative with free hydroxy group at position 3. Its oxidation afforded dihydrotestosterone derivative and successive deprotection of position 17 and of carboxy group led to final (15E)-17β-hydroxy-5α-androstane-3,15-dione 15-[O-(carboxymethyl)]oxime. The title compound was designed as dihydrotestosterone hapten for heterologous radioimmunoassays.

The synthesis of 6-aminoisomannide is easily achieved starting from the renewable, inexpensive and commercially available isosorbide, in 66% overall yield. A biocatalysed highly regioselective acetylation of the 3-endo hydroxyl group of isosorbide was followed by the stereospecific interconversion of the 6-exo hydroxyl group into azido group, through reaction with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride followed by nucleophilic displacement of the triflate group by sodium azide. Finally, reduction of the azido group and deacetylation of the 3-hydroxy group were performed one pot by using LiAlH4.
