Synthesis and Stereochemistry of Diepoxynaphthacenes and Tetraepoxyheptacenes
1997
Cycloaddition reactions of 1,4-dihydro-1,4-epoxynaphthalenes (2) and benzo[c]furans (4), generated in situ from the tetracyclone adducts of 2, yield the diepoxynaphthacenes 5 (Schemes 1, 2). Out of 4 possible stereoisomers an exo-exo and an exo-endo geometry (A and C in Scheme 3) can be realized. The ratio A:C varies from pure A to pure C depending on the substituents of 2 and 4. Stereoisomeric heptacenes 7 can be obtained by a twofold cycloaddition of the same type (Scheme 4). Only one π bond of reactive alkynes such as cyclooctyne or acetylenedicarboxylate is capable of an addition to 4 (Schemes 5, 6).
Radical Formation by Fine Particulate Matter Associated with Highly Oxygenated Molecules
2019
Highly oxygenated molecules (HOMs) play an important role in the formation and evolution of secondary organic aerosols (SOA). However, the abundance of HOMs in different environments and their relation to the oxidative potential of fine particulate matter (PM) are largely unknown. Here, we investigated the relative HOM abundance and radical yield of laboratory-generated SOA and fine PM in ambient air ranging from remote forest areas to highly polluted megacities. By electron paramagnetic resonance and mass spectrometric investigations, we found that the relative abundance of HOMs, especially the dimeric and low-volatility types, in ambient fine PM was positively correlated with the formatio…
Triplet exciplexes as energy transfer photosensitisers
2006
Experimental evidence is provided for the occurrence of triplet–triplet energy transfer from benzoylthiophene–indole exciplexes to naphthalenes with a remarkable stereodifferentiation; chiral recognition is also observed in the decay of the generated naphthalene triplets.

Spectrophotometric Determination of Hydralazine with 2-Hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde in Pharmaceuticals
1991
Abstract A new extraction-spectrophotometric method for the determination of hydralazine, based on its reaction with 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde at 25 °C, is described. The calibration curve was linear between 0.4 and 6 mg/mL of hydralazine. The molar absorbtivity of the product at 408 nm is 40 900 L · mol − 1 · cm − 1 . The method described was applied to the analysis of hydralazine in pharmaceutical preparations containing reserpine, hydrochlorothiazide, bendrofluorthiazine, propranolol, and other substances. The agreement with the U.S.P. XXI method was satisfactory for tablets and injections, but not for pellets.
Gas—liquid chromatographic analyses
1985
Abstract The gas chromatographic retention behaviour of methylethyl, 1-methylpropyl, 2-methylpropyl, 1,2-dimethylpropyl, 1-methylbutyl and 3-methylbutyl esters of benzoic and o-, m- and p-chlorobenzoic acids on low-polarity (SE-30) and polar (OV-351) capillary columns under several temperature-programmed and isothermal conditions is reported. The retention data and the Kovats retention indices for all 24 components are given and the separation of a complex mixture is discussed. The retention index increments have been used to examine the effects of chain branching and chlorine substitution. The results are compared with those for n-alkyl benzoates and monochlorobenzoates.
Detection of Reactive Quinones in the Metabolism of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons by the Formation of their Glutathione Conjugates
1996
Abstract The biotransformation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons to quinones by rat liver microsomes was investigated. The employment of an electrochemical detector allowed the specific detection of quinones separated by reverse phase HPLC with higher sensitivity as compared to UV detection. Microsomal incubations of benzo[a]pyrene (BP) resulted in the formation of 1,6-, 3,6- and 6,12-quinones, of naphthalene in the detection of naphthalene-1,4-quinone, whereas ortho-quinones could only be detected in trace amounts. Additional protein binding studies showed that only 9–22% of synthetic ortho-quinones could be recovered from microsomal incubations. In order to scavenge possible reactive qu…
Metal NHC Complexes with Naphthalimide Ligands as DNA-Interacting Antiproliferative Agents
2017
Naphthalimide-based N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of the type [(1,5-cyclooctadiene)(NHC)RhCl)] (4 a-c), [(p-cymene)(NHC)RuCl2 )] (5 a-c), and [(NHC)CuBr] (6 a-c) were synthesized and investigated as antiproliferative agents that target DNA. The cytotoxic effects were largely driven by the naphthalimide structure, which is a DNA-intercalating moiety. Regarding the metal center, the highest activities were observed with the rhodium complexes, and cytotoxic activity was significantly lower for the ruthenium derivatives. The stable coordination of the NHC ligands of selected complexes 4 b and 5 b in solution was confirmed, and their DNA binding properties were studied by UV/Vis spectro…

(Z)-4-(2-Naphthylamino)pent-3-en-2-one
2011
The title compound, C15H15NO, which was synthesized under solvent-free conditions by the reaction of acetoacetone and 2-naphthylamine, adopts a Z conformation about the C=C bond. The enamine–ketone fragment is approximately planar [maximum deviation = 0.026 (3) Å] and forms a dihedral angle of 39.78 (3)° with the naphthalene ring system. An intramolecular N—H...O hydrogen bond is observed.
Partitioning study of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons between water and some selected water-insoluble phases
2007
An investigation on the partitioning of naphthalene and phenanthrene between water and some water-insoluble phases has been carried out by Uv-vis-NIR spectrophotometry. The analysis of the experimental results emphasized the role of intermolecular interactions and structural features of the hosting phases as driving forces of the partitioning of these polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The critical comparison of the resulting distribution constants allowed to evaluate the potentials of some extracting phases to set up sensitive analytical methods and/or effective environment remediation technologies.
