Phenylmalonic Acid

The ionization constants of p-nitrophenylacetic and phenylmalonic acids have been determined from conductivity data. The value of K for p-nitrophenylacetic acid at 25 °C. is 1.04 × 10−4, about twice that of phenylacetic acid. The nitro group in the nucleus has not as powerful an effect on the ionization when the COOH group is in the side chain as it has when both nitro group and COOH are in the nucleus. K for p-nitrobenzoic acid is six times as great as K for benzoic acid. K for phenylmalonic acid is 2. 77 × 10−3 as compared with 1.6 × 10−3 for malonic acid.

Methyl Group

The rates of addition and the product compositions have been determined for the addition of 4-chlorobenzenesulfenyl chloride to a series of seven side chain methyl substituted styrenes in 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane at 25°. Unlike the addition to the corresponding series of methylated ethylenes, the effect of the methyl groups is not cumulative. The effect of the methyl groups depends upon whether or not the β-methyl group is cis to the phenyl. When it is cis, the rate of addition is decreased compared to styrene and substitution of additional methyl groups has only a small effect on the rate of addition. In compounds lacking a cis-β-methyl group the rate of addition more closely resembles that for addition to the methylated ethylenes. Steric hindrance between the cis-methyl and phenyl groups is believed to be the cause of this difference in behavior between the ethylene and styrene series.

Group Effects

Kinetic studies of the pyrolyses of 1- and 2-naphthyl azides reveal neighbouring group participation by nitro and phenylazo substituents. The acceleration observed in 1-nitro-2-naphthyl azide, 1-phenylazo-2-naphthyl azide, and 2-nitro-1-naphthyl azide is 1730-, 211-, and 23.6-fold, respectively, in nitrobenzene solution at 120�. These effects are all smaller than that of the 2-nitro group in phenyl azide (3370-fold), which is ascribed to the steric effect of the peri hydrogen at C8 in naphthyl azides. The sizes of these neighbouring group effects correlate with the success of oxidative cyclization of ortho-substituted naphthylamines with (diacetoxyiodo)benzene.

Conjugated Triene

The conjugated triene side-chain of ebelin lactone has been degraded in a stepwise manner using osmium tetroxide. A new isomer of ebelin lactone has been isolated from the sapogenin mixture and has been assigned the structure (9) in which the 25(26) double bond has the cis configuration. Autoxidation of ebelin lactone in the solid state yields a mixture from which three compounds have been isolated and identified; all three arise from oxidation of the side-chain at the terminal double bond and methyl groups.

In the crystal structure of the title compound, C10H12N2OS, the conformation of the two N—H bonds areantito each other. The amide C=O and the C=S are are alsoantito each other. The N—H bond adjacent to the benzene ring issynto them-methyl groups. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the side chain [mean plane of atoms C—C(O)N—C—N; maximum deviation 0.029 (2) Å] is 14.30 (7)°. There is an intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond generating anS(6) ring motif. In the crystal, the molecules are linkedviaN—H...) hydrogen bonds, forming chains propagating along [001]. The S atom is disordered and was refined using a split model [occupancy ratio 0.56 (4):0.44 (4)].

Tracer Experiments

1. By means of 14C tracer experiments and isotope competition experiments the roles of d-tyrosine, p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid, p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, phenylacetic acid, homogentisic acid and homoarbutin (2-methylquinol 4-β-d-glucoside) in the biosynthesis of plastoquinones, tocopherols and α-tocopherolquinone by maize shoots was investigated. It was established that d-tyrosine, p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid and homogentisic acid can all be utilized for this purpose, whereas p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, phenylacetic acid and homoarbutin cannot. Studies on the mode of incorporation of d-tyrosine, p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid and homogentisic acid showed that their nuclear carbon atoms and the side-chain carbon atom adjacent to the nucleus give rise (as a C6-C1 unit) to the p-benzoquinone rings and nuclear methyl groups (one in each case) of plastoquinone-9 and α-tocopherolquinone and the aromatic nuclei and nuclear methyl groups (one in each case) of γ-tocopherol and α-tocopherol. 2. By using [14C]-homogentisic acid it has been shown that homogentisic acid is also a precursor of plastoquinone, tocopherols and α-tocopherolquinone in the higher plants Lactuca sativa and Rumex sanguineus, the green algae Chlorella pyrenoidosa and Euglena gracilis and the blue–green alga Anacystis nidulans.

Synthetic routes are described to a series of 2-, 6- and 8- phenylpurines , each with an appropriate S-or NH-linked side chain elsewhere in the molecule; to 2- and 4-phenylpteridines, each with a similar side chain and some with two additional C-methyl groups, to 2- and 4-phenylquinazolines, each equipped with an analogous side chain; and to two pyridinyl analogues of the above. Three of the above components are shown to have considerable activity as amplifiers of phleomycin -G in an in vitro bacterial system.
