Vulcanization of Elastomers with Quinol Ethers of P-Benzoquinone Dioxime

The article discusses the synthesis and development of the direction of vulcanization of elastomers with quinol esters of p-benzoquinone dioxime. The concept of a critical temperature Tcr which denotes noticeability of the vulcanization process of unsaturated rubbers (with k=1×10-6, s-1) is introduced. Noted the increased vulcanizational activity of quinol esters of p-quinone dioxime after nitrosoarenes addition. The reactional ability of nitrosoarenes is proportional to estimated charge value on the oxygen of the nitroso group, with lgk= 11,3+49,7 qO. Quinol esters of p-quinone dioxime are proposed to create three-dimensional rubber paintings and prints.

Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Lanthanum(III) Complexes of 4-Nitrosoantipyrine

A new series of La(III) complexes of the ligand with the general formula [La(L)2(a)3] and [La2(L)4(aa)3], (a = nitrate (1), thiocyanate (2), acetate (3) and propionate (4) ions, aa = sulphate (5), thiosulphate (6), oxalate (7) and malonate (8) ions with the ligand 4-nitrosoantipyrine (L) were synthesized and characterized using various physico-chemical studies. The primary ligand L acts as a bidentate ligand utilizing the carbonyl group and the nitroso group for bonding. The nitrate, thiocyanate, acetate and propionate ions are monovalent unidentate ligands, whereas sulphate, thiosulphate, oxalate and malonate ions are divalent bidentate ligands in the complexes 1-8. Based on spectral data and magnetic susceptibility measurements, geometry of the lanthanum(III) complexes were also proposed.

Thioredoxins: Emerging Players in the Regulation of Protein S-Nitrosation in Plants

S-nitrosation has been recognized as an important mechanism of ubiquitous posttranslational modification of proteins on the basis of the attachment of the nitroso group to cysteine thiols. Reversible S-nitrosation, similarly to other redox-based modifications of protein thiols, has a profound effect on protein structure and activity and is considered as a convergence of signaling pathways of reactive nitrogen and oxygen species. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the emerging role of the thioredoxin-thioredoxin reductase (TRXR-TRX) system in protein denitrosation. Important advances have been recently achieved on plant thioredoxins (TRXs) and their properties, regulation, and functions in the control of protein S-nitrosation in plant root development, translation of photosynthetic light harvesting proteins, and immune responses. Future studies of plants with down- and upregulated TRXs together with the application of genomics and proteomics approaches will contribute to obtain new insights into plant S-nitrosothiol metabolism and its regulation.

Facile route for the synthesis and characterization of new naphtho[2,3-f]quinoxaline-dione, trione and anthra-dione derivatives

In the present study, addition of nitroso group at position 1 of 2-aminoanthraquinone (1) to yield 2-amino-1-nitroanthraquinone (2) was carried out by the reaction of compound (1) with sodium nitrite in water. Compound (2) was used as starting material to produce many new naphtho[2,3-f] quinoxaline-dione, trione, naphtho-pyrazole quinoxaline-dione, anthra-triazine-dione, naphtho-thiazole quinoxaline-dione and anthrabenzo-triazepine-dione derivatives by elimination of one molecule of water as an initial reaction step. The reacting moieties were nitroso and amino function groups to yield a series of compounds. The structures of the products were determined by elemental mass, IR and 1H NMR analysis and the adopted method is efficient to prepare a series of compounds and could possibly be used for the synthesis of new compounds.

In situ nitroso formation induced structural diversity of uranyl coordination polymers

This work presents three possible pathways that could exist in the in situ reaction system. Structural analysis of these compounds revealed that the introduction of nitroso group exerted significant influences on the conformations of ligands, skeletons and 3D structures.

Rh-Catalyzed reactions of N-alkyl anilines with internal alkynes at room temperature have been developed using an in situ generated N-nitroso group as a transient oxidizing directing group.

A rhodium(iii)-catalyzed oxidative ortho-heteroarylation of N-nitrosoaniline with heteroarene has been developed for the synthesis of (2-aminophenyl)heteroaryls under mild conditions.

Separation of planar rotamers through intramolecular hydrogen bonding in polysubstituted 5-nitrosopyrimidines

Unique isolation of pairs of planar rotamers, planamers, as chemical species differing only in nitroso group orientation, separable through the presence of a single intramolecular hydrogen bond, is reported.

The first example of the Fischer–Hepp type rearrangement in pyrimidines

A N-nitroso moiety can be used for the activation of chloropyrimidines toward a nucleophilic substitution reaction with amines. The subsequent treatment of the obtained products with aq H2SO4 can lead to either N-denitrosation to obtain 4,6-pyrimidinediamines or to a Fischer–Hepp type rearrangement to obtain 5-nitroso-4,6-pyrimidinediamines. It was found that the outcome of the reaction strongly depends on the structure of the pyrimidines. Activation of the pyrimidine ring by three groups with a positive mesomeric effect is crucial for the intramolecular nitroso group migration.
