A series of flavones and thioflavones were synthesized via the chalcone pathway, in which 2'-hydroxyacetophenone is condensed with benzaldehyde derivatives in the medium of potassium hydroxide - methanol at room temperature. The obtained chalcones were treated by iodine in refluxed dimethyl sulfoxide turning into the corresponding flavones. Reaction of flavones and Lawesson's reagent in boiling toluene gave the 4-thioflavones with high yields from 53-76%. All the synthetic compounds were purified by column chromatography and recorded their UV, IR and 'H-NMR spectra.

Heterocyclic cage compounds of type I (compounds 8-10) have been prepared by condensation reactions of 1,2,2-trifunctional disilanes Me(R)XSiSiMeX2 (R = Me, Ph, OEt; X = NMe2, OEt) with triethanolamine using the “Dilution Principle”. The starting compounds are obtained by Si-Me cleavage of Si2Me6 with acetylchloride/AlCl3 followed by either aminolysis with HNMe2 or alcoholysis with EtOH. 1H NMR spectra indicate N→Si(1) intraction with the more acidic Si atom in 8 and 9. This result is proved by the X-ray structure analysis of 8 (monoclinic, P21/c; a = 7,088(2), b = 15,070(4), c = 12,701(4) Å, β = 104,96(2) at -130 °C, Z = 4); the Si(1)···N distance is found to be 2,768 Å , connected with a significant angular distortion of the tetrahedral coordination around Si(1) towards a trigonal bipyramid. In compound 10, too, N→Si(1) coordination is observed at room temperature in spite of almost equal acidity for both Si atoms. This can be explained by the preference of 5- over 6-membered chelating ring systems. At higher temperatures the 1H NMR spectra show a fluctuation of the N-donor between the two Si centres.

Abstract The thioanisole-π-complexes (methylthio-η-benzene)-(η-benzene)-chromium (2) and bis(methylthio-η-benzene)chromium (3) have been prepared via lithiation of bis(η-benzene)-chromium and consecutive reaction with dimethyldisulfide. 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra of 2 and 3 as well as ESR-spectra of the corresponding radical cations 2.+ and 3.+ were recorded and analyzed. In contrast to C(η-arene)-Si and C(η-arene)-P bonds, C(y-arene)-S bonds are stable to solvolysis. With (norbornadiene)tetracarbonylmolybdenum, 3 readily forms [bis(methylthio-η-benzene)chromium]tetracarbonylmolybdenum (6) wherein 3 functions as a chelating ligand. 1H and 13C NMR evidence suggests, that at room temperature 6 undergoes rapid conformational interconversions.

A 2H and 14N NMR study of the solid methylammonium hexahalotellurates, (MA)2TeX6 (MA = CH3ND3+ or CD3NH3+, X = Cl, Br, and I), has been undertaken to characterize the dynamics of the methylammonium (MA) ion as a function of temperature. At room temperature, the MA ion in the hexachlorotellurate (solid II) is confined to C3 jumps about the C—N axis while a small angle libration of the C—N axis is occurring. In the room temperature phase, solid I, of (MA)2TeBr6 and (MA)2TeI6 the MA ions are performing overall reorientations on the ps time scale, averaging the 2H nuclear quadrupolar interactions to zero. Variable temperature 2H NMR spin-lattice relaxation times, T1, indicate an activation energy, EA, for "isotropic" reorientations of the CH3ND3+ ion of 5.2 ± 0.5 and 2.6 ± 0.3 kJ mol−1 for X = Br and I, respectively. Deuterium T1 values for C-deuterated MA ion in the hexaiodotellurate indicate an EA for whole-ion reorientation of 3.1 ± 0.3 kJ mol−1. At any given temperature, the correlation time, τc, derived from the T1 results was found to be the same for the two deuterium-labelled hexaiodotellurates. The similarity of both the EA and the τc values implies correlated motion of the methyl and ammonium groups. The 14N T1 results for solid I of (MA)2TeI6 indicate that C—N axis motions, with an EA = 5.6 ± 0.6 kJ mol−1, are more hindered than N—D or C—D bond dynamics. The 2H NMR spectra for (MA)2TeI6 (solid II) and (MA)2TeBr6 (solids II, III, and IV) are characterized by a Pake doublet line shape. The measured peak-to-peak splittings are less than what is predicted by C3 motion about the molecular symmetry axis. It is possible to model these line shapes by postulating that C3 rotations of the methyl and ammonium groups occur as the C—N axis librates in an effective cone about the position of the static molecular axis. For (CH3ND3)2TeBr6 and (CD3NH3)3TeBr6 the peak-to-peak splittings in the 2H NMR spectra were measured as a function of temperature in solid phases II, III, and IV and were found to be similar. Finally, the 2H NMR line shape relaxation for (MA)2TeBr6 (solid III) displays an orientation dependence indicating that rotations about the C—N axis are discrete rather than diffusive in nature. For solid phase II of (MA)2TeCl6, the line shape is observed to relax isotropically, implying that continuous C3 rotations are taking place. Keywords: 2H and 14N NMR, methylammonium hexahalotellurates, molecular motion.

In an effort to develop antimicrobial agents, a series of chalcones were prepared by Claisen-Schmidt condensation of appropriate acetophenones with appropriate aromatic aldehydes in the presence of aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide and ethanol at room temperature. The synthesized compounds were characterized by means of their IR,1H-NMR spectral data and elemental analysis. All the compounds were tested for their antibacterial and antifungal activities by the cup plate method.

Five novel chalcones were synthesised by condensing 2-hydroxy-1-acetonaphthone with aldehyde derivatives in dilute ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution at room temperature according to Claisen-Schmidt condensation and another five novel chalcones were prepared by refluxing 3-acetyl coumarin with aldehydes in the presence of piperidine in ethanol. All these compounds were characterised by means of their IR,1H NMR spectroscopic data and microanalyses. The antimicrobial activity of these compounds were evaluated by the cup plate method.

The 1H NMR signals of the Ru(III) species present in solution are considerably broadened and shifted by paramagnetism, but they can be used to follow chloride displacement in the trans-[RuCl4Im2]− ion. This anion remains predominant for several hours at room temperature in D2O, but its signals are progressively replaced by those of a monoaqua [RuCl3(D2O)Im2] complex. Over a period of days, two new sets of peaks appear, corresponding to two isomers of [RuCl2(D2O)2Im2]+. The same behaviour is observed for the 1-methyl-and 4-methylimidazole analogues. These reactions can be driven backwards by addition of KCl, but [RuCl4Im2]− is not quantitatively regenerated in solution even for 6 M NaCl. Within several months, the [RuCl2(D2O)2Im2]+ isomers further aquate to a single species [RuCl(D2O)3Im2]2+. In CD3OD, displacement of the first chloride of [RuCl4Im2]− takes place faster, over several hours, but substitution stops at the [RuCl3(CD3OD)Im2] stage. In DMSO, substitution occurs very slowly. The [RuCl3(DMSO)Im2]:[RuCl4Im2]−mixture (1:2) obtained after 12 days starts to show very slow reduction to two Ru(II) species, one of which precipitates as yellow crystals. From X-ray diffraction work (monoclinic, P21/n, a = 9.951, b = 8.564, c = 10.527 Å, β = 92.95°, R = 0.033), the compound was identified as [RuCl2(DMSO-d6)2Im2], where the metal has a trans-trans-trans coordination and the DMSO ligands are S-bonded. Keywords: paramagnetic ruthenium anion, solvolysis, chloro complexes.

Alkylations of 9- and 7-[(2-acetoxyethoxy)methyl]-N2-acetylguanine with alkyl halogenides in the presence of base have been investigated affording a new route to the preparation of 1,N2-dimethyl- as well as O6-benzyl-9(7)-alkoxyalkylguanines. 1H NMR spectra revealed that the 1,N2-dimethyl derivatives exist as mixtures of two conformers at room temperature due to the restricted rotation about the C2-N2 bond. These findings agreed with conformational calculations.

H NMR spectra of different hydration stages show that the water molecules in hydrated layered niobium sulfides A0.5(H2O)y[NbS2] are rather mobile at room temperature. A structural scheme of water arrangement in the interlayer space is proposed with the C2-axis of the H2O molecules parallel to the basal planes of the NbS2 layer units.

Treatment of cis-dihydroxykawainol = rel (5R, 6R)-(±)-5-hydroxy-4-methoxy-6- phenylethyl-5,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-on (cis-3) with potassium hydroxide in methanol (2.5%, 1 h, room temp.) leads to a 1:1 mixture of the corresponding erythro-butenolide 7 and threo-butenolide 8 by a ring contraction process that may have analogies with the biosynthesis of the piperolides 15. Trans-3 gives the same yields (about 70%) of the same mixture (7 and S), which can be separated by silica-gel columns. Starting from mixtures of cis-5-hydroxykawain (cis-4) and trans-5-hydroxykawain (trans-4), there were prepared and described the two epimeric dehydro-butenolides 9 and 10 and their O-methylderivatives 11 and 12. The threo- and erythro-series show consistant differences between J5,6 and the 1H NMR spectra. The constitution and configuration of (± )-erythro-5- (1-methoxy-3-phenylallyl)-4-methoxy-2(5H)-furanone (11) were established by X-ray analysis.

N-Alkylation of IIIa, IIIb, IIId - IIIf and 9-acridanone with 3-bromopropyne in dimethyl sulfoxide in the presence of potassium carbonate yielded N-(2-propynyl) derivatives IVa - IVe and VIa, respectively. Ethyl esters IVa, IVb, and IVe were hydrolyzed to IVf - IVh, respectively. Compounds IVf, IVg, IVctreated with bases yielded N-propadienyl derivatives Va - Vc. On the other hand 2-substituted compounds IVd and IVh did not change under the same conditions. Compound VIa treated with powdered potassium hydroxide in dimethyl sulfoxide at room temperature yielded N-(1-propynyl) derivative VII.
