Fluorescent 3-amino-1,8-naphthalimide Tröger’s bases (3-amino-TBNaps) incorporating protected α-amino acids
2021
Abstract The synthesis of 3-amino-1,8-naphthalimide Troger’s base’s (TBNaps) 2–4, possessing several amino acids at the imide terminus, from the corresponding 3-amino-1,8-naphthalimide (Naps) units is described. The solid-state X-ray crystal structure of the related 3-amino-TBNaps piperidino-ethyl derivative 1, and its supramolecular packing is also outlined. In these molecules (as demonstrated from the X-ray structure of 1), the two Naps units have an orthogonal arrangement that makes them potentially attractive β-turn mimics for incorporation into peptide and polypeptide structures. The ground and the excited state properties of these systems were evaluated in a range of solvents that var…
Subsurface chemistry of mantles of interstellar dust grains in dark molecular cores
2010
Context. The abundances of many observed compounds in interstellar molecular clouds still lack an explanation, despite extensive research that includes both gas and solid (dust-grain surface) phase reactions. Aims. We aim to qualitatively prove the idea that a hydrogen-poor subsurface chemistry on interstellar grains is responsible for at least some of these chemical "anomalies". This chemistry develops in the icy mantles when photodissociation reactions in the mantle release free hydrogen, which escapes the mantle via diffusion. This results in serious alterations of the chemical composition of the mantle because pores in the mantle provide surfaces for reactions in the new, hydrogen-poor …
STUDIEN ZUM VORGANG DER WASSERSTOFFÜBERTRAGUNG 731HYDROGENOLYSESTUDIEN VON SCHWEFEL-UND PHOSPHOR-VERBINDUNGEN AN RANEY-NICKEL (Ra-Ni)—EINE MATERIALSA…
1985
Abstract The desulfurization and dephosphorization with Raney-Nickel (Ra-Ni) is investigated under standard conditions using the following types of compounds: Mercaptanes. thioethers, di- and trisulfides, sulfonium salts, sulfoxides, sulfones, sulfonic acid derivatives, bidental thioethers before and after the chelation, tertiary phosphines and phosphites, phosphonium salts and amidophosphonium salts, phosphine-metal-complexes, model compounds containing sulfur and phosphorus in the same molecule and samples of aerosil the surface of which is modified with S- and P-functions. The degree of the desulfurization and dephosphorization is dependent on the amount and availability of the “structur…
Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Agents, XVIII: C-5 Functionalized 6,7-Diphenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizines as Inhibitors of Bovine Cyclooxygenase and 5…
1994
6-(4-Chlorophenyl)-7-phenyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolizines with functional groups at position 5 of the heterocyclic moiety were synthesized and tested. To determine their antiinflammatory activity bovine blood was used as enzyme source for the cyclooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase, respectively. The iminoxy acetic acid derivative and the iminotetrazole selectively inhibit the 5-lipoxygenase, all the other compounds show medium or low affinity to the active sites of cyclooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase. In general all compounds inhibit 5-lipoxygenase more effectively than cyclooxygenase. Concerning the inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase the most active compounds found are equipotent to the corresponding pro…
Impact of Reactive Oxygen Species on the Expression of Adhesion Molecules in Vivo
2008
Many non-surgical tumor treatments induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) which result in cell damage. This study investigated the impact of ROS induction on the expression of adhesion molecules and whether alpha-tocopherol pre-treatment could have a protective effect. Experimental rat DS-sarcomas were treated with a combination of localized 44 degrees C-hyperthermia, inspiratory hyperoxia and xanthine oxidase which together lead to a pronounced ROS induction. Further animals were pre-treated with alpha-tocopherol. The in vivo expression of E- and N-cadherin, alpha-catenin, integrins alpha v, beta 3 and beta 5 as well as of the integrin dimer alpha v beta 3 was assessed by flow cytometry. The…
Zur protonenkatalysierten elektrophilen substitution von 2,3-dimethylindol mit arylaldehyden: C6-regioselektivität am indol-gerüst
1986
The proton catalyzed reaction of 2,3-dimethylindole (1) with several arylaldehydes 2 yields the 6,6′bisindolylarylmethanes 5 regioselectively. No mechanistic information about the predominant attack of the aldehydes on the indole nucleus is obtained, because the reaction proceeds too fast to control. The electron-rich aldehydes, 2,4,6-trimethoxybenzaldehyde and indole-3-carbaldehyde, yield exclusively the 6,6′,6″-trisin-dolylmethane 9. The constitutions of all isolated methanes were elucidated by 400 MHz 1H-nmr spectroscopy.
First Electrophilic Substitutions of 3-Substituted Indoles with Diethoxycarbenium Tetrafluoroborate: Functionalized Indole Derivatives
1990
The indoles 2a-2c react with diethoxycarbenium tetrafluoroborate (1) to furnish the indolecarbaldehydes 3a-3d. In the thermodynamically controlled reaction of 3-methylindole (2a) with 1 the tris(indolyl)methane 4 and diskatole (5), are formed in addition. The limitations of these reactions are discussed and evidence is presented for a C-3-ipso-attack and a Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement, respectively, leading to the formation of 3b or 3d. Erste elektrophile Substitution von 3-substituierten Indolen mit Diethoxycarbenium-Tetrafluoroborat: Funktionalisierte Indol-Derivate Die Indole 2a-2c reagieren mit dem per se synthetisierten Diethoxycarbenium-Tetrafluoroborat (1) zu den Indolcarbaldehyden …
Preface for the Forum on Molecular Magnetism: The Role of Inorganic Chemistry
2009
Molecular magnetism is a rapidly expanding field of research whose central theme is the design and study of magnetic molecules and materials with tunable properties. In the early stages of the field, which began to take shape in the 1980s, much of the effort was directed at the pursuit of molecule-based magnetic solids that order at high temperatures. These materials are basically of two types: those based on tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) and those based on cyanide. As the field rapidly evolved over the past two decades, exciting new challenges appeared on the horizon, including the use of building block approaches for the preparation of complex multifunctional magnetic materials, the fabricati…
Evaporation of tungsten oxides: A mass-spectrometric study of the vapour contents
1995
Abstract The evaporation of bulk oxides of WO2 and WO3 and oxidised tungsten surfaces (metallic tungsten heated in an oxygen atmosphere) have been studied by the means of mass-spectrometry. The principal constituents of the vapour are found to be molecules of WO2, WO3, W2O6 and W3O9. These results differ from earlier reports, where the presence of molecules smaller than W3O9 in the mass-spectrum was interpreted as an artifact due to electron impact dissociation of larger polymers.
Synthesis of high surface area perovskite catalysts by non-conventional routes
1997
Abstract The use of rare earth-containing perovskite oxides as total oxidation catalysts faces to the difficulty of obtaining high surface area materials and the need of calcination at high temperatures for its synthesis. In this work, perovskite NdCoO3 catalysts with relatively high surface areas were synthesized at soft calcination conditions by two non-conventional routes: heteronuclear organic complexes and amorphous precursors obtained by freeze-drying of nitrates solutions. Depending on the method used, different degrees of homogeneity in the bulk distribution of the component cations, oxygen non-stoichiometry as well as surface Co/Nd atomic ratios are obtained. In this way, the synth…
