It was shown in 1927 that quinine, when combined with a diphenic acid derivative, gave a salt with an optical rotation in the opposite direction to that of the free alkaloid ("Kuhn's effect"). The present authors have prepared the salts of four of the cinchona alkaloids with 2-phenylpyridine-2′:3-dicarboxylic acid, and find similar results. In addition, a partial optical resolution of a derivative of this acid has been effected, the dextro-form of the methiodide of the dimethyl ester having been isolated.

Here we compare the host behaviour of two roof-shaped compounds, trans-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene-11,12-dicarboxylic acid H1 and its dimethyl ester, trans-dimethyl 9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene-11,12-dicarboxylate H4, when presented with mixed xylene (o-Xy, m-Xy and p-Xy) and...

Abstract The new α-pyrone derivative II was isolated in crystalline form from extracts of dormant seeds of Rosa canina. It inhibits germination of seeds of Amaranthus caudatus completely, but reversibly, at conc. > 2.5 × 10-5 м . Its chemical structure was elucidated by mass spectrometry, 1H-and 13C-NMR spectroscopy to be 3-methyl-1-oxa-bicyclo (4,1,0) hept-5-en-2-one-4,6-dicarboxylic acid di­methylester (II). It is derived from 3-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one-4,6-dicarboxylic acid by cyclo-propanation with diazomethane. The parent compound which is a natural product of the seeds of Rosa canina was isolated as its dimethyl ester I the structure of which was elucidated by mass and NMR spectroscopy. I shows less inhibition of seed germination than II. The reference a-pyrones dimethyl-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one-3,5-dicarboxylate (III) , 3-methoxycarbonyl-5-methoxycar-bonylmethyl-6-methyl-2H-pyran-2-one (IV), and isodehydracetic acid methylester (V) did not show any inhibitory activity. The relationship of II with threo-dihydrohematinic acid (VII) is discussed.
