The acid-catalyzed dehydration of 4-dimethylamino-2-p-methoxyphenyl-1-phenylbutan-2-ol yields all four possible 4-amino-1,2-diarylbutenes. Pure samples of each isomer have been isolated, double bond positions and configurations being established from proton magnetic resonance and ultraviolet spectroscopic data. A stereoselective route to cis aminobut-1-enes has been further investigated. The anti-histaminic properties of the reported butenes together with some related compounds are given and structural influences upon activity discussed.

The acid-catalyzed dehydration of 1-t-butyl-3-dimethylamino-1-phenylpropan-1-ol gives cis(t-Bu/H)1-t-butyl-3-dimethylamino-1-phenylprop-1-ene exclusively. Dehydration of the product of reaction between 1-t-butyl-3-dimetnylammopropari-1-one and 2,6-dichlorobenzylmagnesium bromide gives cis and trans 2-t-butyl-1-2,6-dichlorophenyl-4-dimethylaminobut-2-ene plus the cis aminopropene of the first reaction. The formation of the aminopropene, together with that of its precursor tertiary alcohol, represents a novel cleavage reaction of 2,6-dichlorobenzylmagnesium bromide. The configurations of the aminoalkenes were established from proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic data, the cis(t-Bu/H)but-2-ene providing a further example of a magnetically non-equivalent t-butyl group.

The synthesis of six new barbituric acids 1b, 3a, 4b, 5, and 6b, including the novel 5-hydroxy derivative 3b, is reported together with spectroscopic data (proton magnetic resonance, ultraviolet, and infrared) for these and for five related known barbiturates for which such data is lacking. An interesting occurrence of non-equivalence of the N-1 and N-3 CH2(Et) protons in 3b is discussed.

The proton magnetic resonance characteristics of some α/β diastereoisomeric 5,9-dimethyl-6,7-benzomorphans are reported for free base, hydrohalide, and methiodide forms, and differences between α- and β-signals are interpreted in terms of the piperidine ring fragment of the β-salts adopting skew-boat conformations. The steric course of quaternization of benzomorphan isomers is discussed from results of alkylations using trideuteriomethyl iodide and other experiments. A possible correlation between conformational and potency differences in analgesically active benzomorphan diastereoisomers and related compounds is discussed.

Biotransformation of monocillin I (1) by Beauveria bassiana ATCC 7159 was investigated. Two new derivatives 2 and 3 were isolated and identified on the basis of the spectroscopic data. Compounds 2 and 3 are synthesized by hydration at 10,11-double bond and hydrolysis of 14,15-epoxide, respectively. The R configuration of 11-OH in 2 was established by the modified 2-methoxy-2-trifluoromethylphenylacetic acid (MTPA) method. The conversion of 1 to 2 and 3 was reconstituted in an acid solution, indicating that the formation of 2 and 3 is an acid-catalyzed instead of an enzymatic process.

Proton magnetic resonance and infrared spectra were obtained for 44 carbamylphosphonates and related compounds, the common structural features being the grouping As with ordinary amides, slow rotation is observed around the carbonyl-to-nitrogen bond, but the chemical shift between nitrogen substituents is three to five times as great. Evidence is presented for long range coupling of phosphorus to protons in N-substituents. Correlations are observed between the carbonyl and phosphoryl stretching frequencies and substituents both on nitrogen and on phosphorus.

The proton magnetic resonance (p.m.r.) and mass spectra of the methyl ester pentaacetate of sodium 2-O-α-D-mannopyranosyl-D-glycerate from the red alga Rhodomela larix are compared to those of related compounds to affirm the assigned structure.
