    Notes: Abstract Background: Cancer cachexia is a significant cause of postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients with tumors of the upper gastrointestinal tract. Standard parenteral nutrition (TPN) has failed to alter this. The anabolic effect of insulin has been well documented, and its positive effect on protein economy in cancer patients has been recently demonstrated. This study examines the effect of high-dose insulin and parenteral nutrition on protein kinetics in postoperative cancer patients. Methods: Eleven patients underwent surgery for pancreatic, esophageal, or gastric carcinoma. Postoperatively, patients received standard TPN for 4 days (1 g/kg/day amino acids, 1,000 kcal/day dextrose, 100 g/day lipid), and hyperinsulinemic parenteral nutrition for 4 days (same as standard TPN plus 1.44 U/kg/day regular human insulin) in a crossover design. All patients received both treatments, and the order of treatment was determined randomly. Euglycemia was maintained during insulin infusion via a variable 30% dextrose infusion. Patients underwent protein metabolic studies after each treatment period and rates of whole body and skeletal muscle protein synthesis, breakdown, and net balance were determined by radioisotopic tracer methods using14C-leucine and3H-phenylalanine. Results: Compared with standard TPN (STD), hyperinsulinemic TPN (INS) resulted in a significant increase in skeletal muscle protein synthesis (INS: 52.04±10.22 versus STD: 26.06±6.71 nmol phe/100 g/min, p〈0.05) and net balance of protein (INS: 7.75±4.61 versus STD: −15.10±6.44 nmol phe/100 g/min, p〈0.01), but no difference in skeletal muscle protein breakdown (INS: 44.29±11.54 versus STD: 41.17±5.89 nmol phe/100 g/min). Whole-body net balance of protein also significantly increased with insulin-based TPN, compared with standard TPN (INS: 0.04±0.05 versus STD: −0.08±0.07 µmol leu/kg/min, p〈0.05), but no difference in whole-body protein synthesis (INS: 2.52±0.15 versus STD: 2.49±0.15 µmol leu/kg/min) or whole-body protein breakdown (INS: 2.48±0.16 versus STD: 2.58±0.19 µmol leu/kg/min) was observed. Patients received significantly more calories during the hyperinsulinemic TPN period than during the standard TPN period. There was no difference in total, essential, or branched-chain amino acids, and no difference in serum free fatty acids, triglycerides, or cholesterol was observed between the two treatment periods. Conclusion: High-dose insulin in conjunction with hypercaloric parenteral nutrition causes improved skeletal muscle protein synthesis, skeletal muscle protein net balance, and whole-body protein net balance compared with standard TPN in postoperative cancer patients.

    Notes: Abstract Growth hormone (GH) levels were measured in 12 patients with myotonic dystrophy (MD; 7 men and 5 women, aged 21–49 years) and 14 volunteers after administration of 100 μg GH-releasing hormone (GHRH; 1–29). A 75-g oral glucose tolerance test was carried out to determine glucose, insulin, plasma C-peptide, and urinary C-peptide. The GH level in six MD patients responded normally to GHRH (group I), with a peak of 17.1 ± 1.46 μg/l, compared withcontrols (27.8 ± 19.6 μg/l, NS), and that in the other six patients responded subnormally, with a peak of 3.15 ± 1.46 μg/l, lower than in controls and in group I patients (P 〈 0.001). In group I the insulin response to the glucose tolerance test showed hyperinsulinism and was lower than that in group II patients; stimulated C-peptide was also higher in group II than in group I and in controls; urinary C-peptide levels were parallel to those in previous data. In all MD patients there were a negative correlation between absolute values of GH response to GHRH and insulin response to glucose tolerance test (r = - 0.79, P 〈 0.001). Our data suggest that the failure in GH release and peripheral insulin action is due to a generalized defect in cellular membrane function in MD patients.

    Notes: Abstract We present two cases of nesidioblastosis, a common cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infancy that, if inadequately treated, can lead to mental retardation. Tissue insulin data obtained from both radioimmunoassay and immunohistochemistry are presented. In each case, the insulin content correlated well with the quantity of insulinpositive cells in each portion of the pancreas. However, the insulin content varied from case to case and from portion to portion of the same pancreas. Thus, discrepancies in clinical results in nesidioblastosis may be due to variability of insulin content in the resected pancreas.

    Notes: Abstract When studied morphologically in semi-thin sections in the rat in vivo, pancreatic beta cells displayed heterogeneous immunoreactivities for insulin and amylin, depending on the islet size and the intra-islet position of the beta cells. In larger islets, cortical beta cells (beta cells with contacts with all islet cell types and with the exocrine parenchyma) which are located in the periphery were more densely immunostained for insulin and amylin than medullary beta cells (beta cells with contacts only with other beta cells) which are located in the centre of the islet. Ultrastructurally, these findings were accompanied by differences in the number of secretory granules and mitochondria. Beta cells in small islets and at extra-islet sites exhibited a dense immunoreactivity. After administration of glibenclamide, immunoreactivities for insulin and amylin were diminished in a time-dependent manner, decreasing first in medullary and thereafter in cortical beta cells of larger islets. Ultrastructurally, the beta cells exhibited the typical signs of stimulation. A minority of beta cells in small islets and all beta cells in extra-islet locations remained unchanged. Thus pancreatic beta cells under basal and stimulatory conditions in vivo exhibit heterogeneity in hormone content and in ultrastructural features. These differences may represent the basis for a functional heterogeneity of the insulin secretory response of the individual beta cell both in vivo and in vitro in states of normal and impaired insulin secretion. As heterogeneity was observed only among beta cells in islets, while single beta cells surrounded by acinar cells exhibited no changes in insulin immunoreactivity, interactions between beta cells as well as between beta cells and other endocrine cells may be critical for expression of heterogeneity within the beta cell population.

    Notes: Summary To determine whether chronic overproduction of islet amyloid polypeptide alters beta-cell function, we studied a line of transgenic mice which overexpress islet amyloid polypeptide in their beta-cells. At 3 months of age, these transgenic mice had greater pancreatic content of both islet amyloid polypeptide and insulin. Further, basal and glucose-stimulated secretion of both islet amyloid polypeptide and insulin were also elevated in the perfused pancreas of the transgenic animals. These findings demonstrate that chronic overproduction and secretion of islet amyloid polypeptide are associated with increased insulin storage and enhanced secretion of insulin in vitro. This increase in insulin storage and secretion may be due to a direct effect of islet amyloid polypeptide on the beta-cell or a betacell adaptation to islet amyloid polypeptide-induced insulin resistance.

    Notes: Summary Metformin has been demonstrated to lower blood glucose in vivo by a mechanism which increases peripheral glucose uptake. Furthermore, the therapeutic concentration of metformin has been estimated to be in the order of 0.01 mmol/l. We investigated the effect of metformin on insulin-stimulated 3-0-methylglucose transport in isolated skeletal muscle obtained from seven patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and from eight healthy subjects. Whole body insulin-mediated glucose utilization was decreased by 45% (p〈0.05) in the diabetic subjects when studied at 8 mmol/l glucose, compared to the healthy subjects studied at 5 mmol/l glucose. Metformin, at concentrations of 0.1 and 0.01 mmol/l, had no effect on basal or insulin-stimulated (100 ΜU/ml) glucose transport in muscle strips from either of the groups. However, the two control subjects and three patients with NIDDM which displayed a low rate of insulin-mediated glucose utilization (〈20 Μmol·kg−1·min−1), as well as in vitro insulin resistance, demonstrated increased insulin-stimulated glucose transport in the presence of metformin at 0.1 mmol/l (p〈0.05). In conclusion, the concentration of metformin resulting in a potentiating effect on insulin-stimulated glucose transport in insulin-resistant human skeletal muscle is 10-fold higher than the therapeutic concentrations administered to patients with NIDDM. Thus, it is conceivable that the hypoglycaemic effect of metformin in vivo may be due to an accumulation of the drug in the extracellular space of skeletal muscle, or to an effect of the drug distal to the glucose transport step.

    Notes: Summary Many ethnic groups at high risk of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus are hyperinsulinaemic by early adult life. This study assessed whether such hyperinsulinaemia is present at birth. Cross sectional comparisons of maternal biochemistry, umbilical cord biochemistry and neonatal anthropometry were made between one ‘low risk’ and three ‘high risk’ ethnic groups, without diabetes in pregnancy in Auckland, New Zealand. The study comprised 123 European, Polynesian (Maori and Pacific Islands) and Indian normal pregnancies. Indian mothers were the smallest, with the highest insulin and non-esterified fatty acid concentrations. Polynesian mothers were the most obese with a higher fructosamine concentration. From these pregnancies, Indian neonates were smaller, slimmer, with the highest cord triglyceride (0.6 mmol/l vs 0.4 mmol/l, p〈0.01), and lowest cord insulin concentrations (7.1 mU/l vs 8.6 mU/l (European), 9.2 mU/l (Polynesian), p〈0.05). Polynesian babies had a high cord insulin: C-peptide ratio (52.5 mU/nmol vs 44.4 mU/ nmol (European), 44.1 mU/nmol (Indian), p=0.05). Although reduced intrauterine growth may contribute to the excess of diabetes and heart disease in Indians, it cannot explain the excess of diabetes in Polynesians. Exposure to minor relative maternal hyperglycaemia in the mother and abnormal neonatal insulin handling (as demonstrated by the higher insulin: C-peptide ratio) may be of long-term significance in Polynesians.

    Notes: Abstract The alteration of bone metabolism in the femur of rats with skeletal unloading for 4 days was investigated. Skeletal unloading was designed using the model of hindlimb hang in rats. Skeletal unloading caused a significant decrease in femoral weight, calcium, and phosphorus contents in the metaphysis but not diaphysis. Also, the unloading induced a significant decrease of zinc content, alkaline phosphatase activity, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) content in the femoral diaphysis and metaphysis. When the femoraldiaphyseal and metaphyseal tissues from normal and skeletal-unloading rats were cultured in the presence of insulin (10-9 and 10-8 M) for 24 hours in vitro, the hormonal effect to increase alkaline phosphatase activity and DNA content in the diaphysis, but not metaphysis, was lost in the bone tissues from unloading rats. However, the culture with insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I; 10-8 and 10-7 M) produced a significant increase of alkaline phosphatase activity and DNA content in both the diaphyseal and metaphyseal tissues from normal and unloading rats. These results demonstrate that skeletal unloading causes an impairment of insulin effect, but not IGF-I effect, on bone metabolism in femoral tissues.

    Notes: Abstract We studied glucose metabolism using the hyperglycemic technique in a cross-section of 23 children (15 pubertal, 8 prepubertal) with stable chronic renal failure as a possible cause of their poor growth. Linear growth was expressed as growth velocity standard deviation score (GVSDS). GVSDS correlated with glucose disposal rate but not with insulin sensitivity index in the pubertal (r=0.87,P〈0.001) and prepubertal (r=0.86,P〈0.02) children with chronic renal failure. Thirteen children were followed longitudinally during medical suppression of hyperparathyroidism with dietary phosphate restriction and high-dose phosphate binders. Following significant suppression of serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels back to the normal range (932±240 ng/l to 199±50 ng/l), GVSDS, glucose disposal rate and insulin secretion all increased significantly (P〈0.01), with no change in insulin sensitivity index and renal function. The changes in GVSDS correlated with the changes in glucose disposal rate (r=0.86,P〈0.02) and with the changes in insulin secretion (r=0.80,P〈0.01). However, the changes in GVSDS did not correlate with the changes in PTH. The hypothesis that insulin may be more important than PTH in the pathogenesis of growth failure in chronic renal disease deserves further investigation.

    Notes: Abstract  A previous study demonstrated that administration of phenobarbitone to male AP Wistar rats for up to 7 days caused alterations in labelling indices (LIs) in several different tissues (including a reduction of the endocrine pancreas population LI) as determined by immunohistochemical visualisation of 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation into S-phase nuclei. The primary objective of this study was to determine whether treatment with phenobarbitone influenced the replicative states of specific cohorts of the islet (of Langerhans) cell population or generated a uniform depression of LI. Quantitation of the LIs of individual islet cell cohorts was achieved by utilisation of a dual immunohistochemical staining method for BrdU and islet hormones (insulin, glucagon and somatostatin) using a sequential peroxidase anti-peroxidase (PAP)/alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase (APAAP) method employing diaminobenzidine and New Fuchsin chromogens, respectively. We observed reductions, increases and no change in LIs of insulin-, glucagon- and somatostatin-positive cells, respectively. We conclude that the decreased LI of the insulin-positive cohort was not countered entirely by the LI increase in the glucagon-positive cohort due to the larger size of the former. Furthermore, the effects of phenobarbitone treatment are not manifested generally in the islet cell population but in the insulin- and glucagon-positive cohorts only. The causation of these effects is unknown but is likely to be due to enhanced carbohydrate and hormone metabolism. We believe that the visualisation and quantitation of replicating cells in specific hormone-positive cohorts of the islet cell population provide opportunities for understanding the influence of xenobiotics and disease processes on pancreatic function.

    Notes: Abstract Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out on an insulin crosslinked between the N-terminal A chain and the C-terminal B chain to form a so-called mini-proinsulin: N α -A1-N ε -B29-diaminosuberoyl insulin (DASI). To investigate the influence of crosslinking on the dynamics of the insulin moiety, the bridge was removed from a transient DASI structure and simulation was carried on independently with the then unlinked (ULKI) as well as with the crosslinked species. The effects of crystal packing and quaternary interactions were checked by simulating both types of monomers and dimers known from the hexamer structure. All simulations were compared to previous ones of native insulin. DASI shows general similarity to the native simulations in most parts of the structure. Deviations are visible in the segments to which the bridge is directly connected, i.e. their flexibility is reduced. Upon removal of the bridge the ULKI simulations reapproach those of native insulin. The influence of the bridge spreads over the whole molecule, but all of its main structural features remain intact. The simulations suggest that the displacement of the C-terminal B chain of native insulin, considered important for receptor interaction, is prevented by the bridge, which also partially shields some binding residues. This is in accordance with the poor biological potency of A1-B29-crosslinked insulins.

    Notes: Abstract To determine the limits to oxidation of exogenous glucose by skeletal muscle, the effects of euglycaemia (plasma glucose 5 mM, ET) and hyperglycaemia (plasma glucose 10 mM, HT) on fuel substrate kinetics were evaluated in 12 trained subjects cycling at 70% of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2, max) for 2 h. During exercise, subjects ingested water labelled with traces of U-14C-glucose so that the rates of plasma glucose oxidation (R ox) could be determined from plasma 14C-glucose and expired 14CO2 radioactivities, and respiratory gas exchange. Simultaneously, 2-3H-glucose was infused at a constant rate to estimate rates of endogenous glucose turnover (R a), while unlabelled glucose (25% dextrose) was infused to maintain plasma glucose concentration at either 5 or 10 mM. During ET, endogenous liver glucose R a (total R a minus the rate of infusion) declined from 22.4±4.9 to 6.5±1.4 μmol/min per kg fat-free mass [FFM] (P〈0.05) and during HT it was completely suppressed. In contrast, R ox increased to 152±21 and 61±10 μmol/min per kg FFM at the end of HT and ET respectively (P〈0.05). HT (i. e., plasma glucose 10 mM) and hyperinsulinaemia (24.5±0.9 μU/ml) also increased total carbohydrate oxidation from 203±7 (ET) to 310±3 μmol/min per kg FFM (P〈0.0001) and suppressed fat oxidation from 51±3 (ET) to 18±2 μmol/min per kg FFM (P〈0.0001). As the rates of oxidation at more physiological euglycaemic concentrations of glucose were limited to 92±9 μmol/ min per kg FFM, and were similar to those reported when carbohydrate is ingested, the results of the current study suggest that the concentrations of glucose and insulin normally present during prolonged, intense exercise may limit the rate of muscle glucose uptake and oxidation.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of 7 covalently dimerized insulin derivatives on glucose transport in differentiated 3T3-L1 cells were investigated. Symmetric cross-linkage at lysine B29 with a bridge of 2 (oxalyl), 8 (suberoyl) or 12 (dodecanedioyl) carbon atoms produced derivatives with essentially unaltered receptor binding affinity but largely reduced intrinsic activity. Regardless of the chain length, these derivatives inhibited the effect of submaximal insulin concentrations. Insulin derivatives cross-linked at phenylalanine 131 or asymmetrically at 131/1129 were full agonists of the insulin receptor. When lysine B29 was cross-linked with the inactive desoctapeptide(B23-B30)insulin at phenylalanine B1, the intrinsic activity of the resulting dimer was lower than that of insulin, but higher than that of the symmetric B29-dimers. It is concluded that linkage at the B29-lysines, and not at the B1-phenylalanine, leads to partial agonism of dimerized insulin derivatives, regardless of the length of the crosslinker.

    Notes: Abstract The cardiovascular responses to insulin-induced hypoglycemia were studied in normal and ventral medial hypothalamic (VMH)-lesioned rats. The goal of this study was to investigate the role of the VMH in mediating the insulin-induced decreases in cardiovascular tone. Male Wistar rats were anesthetized with urethane/chloralose. Following the induction of anesthesia, the trachea, femoral artery, and femoral vein were cannulated. The femoral artery was attached to a pressure transducer for cardiovascular monitoring. The cardiovascular activity was recorded using a Modular Instruments Micro 5000 signal processing system. The mean arterial pressure and pulse pressures and heart rate were evaluated. In control studies, a stable plasma glucose and blood pressure were obtained with urethane/chloralose anesthesia for the duration of the experiments. Insulin (2.0 or 5.0 U/kg) significantly decreased the plasma glucose as well as the blood pressure. In VMH-lesioned rats, the lesions were accomplished by radiofrequency, and the cardiovascular response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia was investigated 1 or 6 weeks later. There was no difference in the cardiovascular response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia between the low or high insulin dose after 1 week in VMH-lesioned animals. The low dose after 6 weeks in VMH-lesioned animals did not produce a change in the mean arterial pressure response compared with controls. The pulse pressure was higher than in the sham-lesioned animals, and the plasma glucose response was greater. The high dose after 6 weeks in VMH-lesioned animals in contrast to sham-lesioned animals led to an increased cardiovascular response instead of a decrease. We propose that the decrease in cardiovascular activity in response to insulin-induced hypoglycemia in normal animals can be attributed to a direct or indirect effect on vascular dilation as well as possibly to an inhibition of sympathetic firing. However, it appears that insulin increases the vascular dilation as well as the parasympathetic tone after 1 week in the VMH-lesioned animals, similar to the findings in sham-lesioned animals. However, after 6 weeks, the insulin-induced decreased cardiovascular tone is minimal. Thus, we believe hat the VMH does not have a direct effect in modulating the insulin-induced decrease in cardiovascular tone, but its destruction appears to influence other regulatory centers.

    Notes: Abstract To establish whether or not hypoxia influences the training-induced adaptation of hormonal responses to exercise, 21 healthy, untrained subjects [26 (2) years, mean (SE)] were studied in three groups before and after 5 weeks' training (cycle ergometer, 45 min· day−1, 5 days· week−1). Group 1 trained at sea level at 70% maximal oxygen uptake ( $$\dot V$$ O2max), group 2 in a hypobaric chamber at a simulated altitude of 2500 m at 70% of altitude $$\dot V$$ O2max, and group 3 at a simulated altitude of 2500 m at the same absolute work rate as group 1. Arterial blood was sampled before, during and at the end of exhaustive cycling at sea level (85% of pretraining of $$\dot V$$ O2max). $$\dot V$$ O2 increased by 12 (2)% with no significant difference between groups, whereas endurance improved most in group 1 (P 〈 0.05). Training-induced changes in response to exercise of noradrenaline, adrenaline, growth hormone, β-endorphin, glucagon, and insulin were similar in the three groups. Concentrations of erythropoietin and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate at rest did not change over the training period. In conclusion, within 5 weeks of training, no further adaptation of hormonal exercise responses takes place if intensity is increased above 70% $$\dot V$$ O2max. Furthermore, hypoxia per se does not add to the training-induced hormonal responses to exercise.

    Notes: Abstract Retinas of chick embryos contain insulin (1) and further, are capable of synthesizing it, as demonstrated by incubating retinas at different ages (7th–18th day) with [3H]leucine. The synthesized radioactive insulin was isolated and assayed by means of a HPLC procedure. The synthesis of insulin was found to be highest in the youngest retinas studied (day 7), afterwards it declined with age except for an increment found at 14–15 day. Explants of chick embryo retinas, cultured in vitro, rapidly degraded insulin. Nevertheless, the content of immunoreactive insulin in retinal explants diminished slowly with the age of culture, so that, after 8 days of incubation, it was about 60% of the content found in the retinas at the beginning of incubation. This was proof that cultured explants are capable of efficiently synthesizing insulin. The synthesized [3H]insulin was released from explants into the medium. This was evident also after 6–8 days in culture.

    Notes: The relative basicities of six monosubstituted dipolar trimethylamines (XCH2NMe2) were determined in nine different solvents from potentiometric titration. Solvation effects on basicity variations were analyzed by the solvatochromic parameters (π*, α and β). Non-specific solvation of the substituted dimethylammonium ions is not reflected adequately by the solvent's dipolarity-polarizability constant, π*. A better representation of non-specific interaction between solvents and the monosubstituted dipolar trimethylammonium ions is gained from the product of π* and the solvent dipole moment (μ). For these ions where the dipolar substituents are separated from the reaction center by one methylene unit, there is an interaction between the charge of the ammonium ion and the dipolar substituent. As a result, solvent molecules must not only solvate the dipolar substituents, but must also gain access between the lines of force of the dipolar substituent and the charge. Bulky solvents, such as nitrobenzene, cannot access adequately the region between the dipolar substituents and the reaction center to accomplish similar solvation as less bulky solvents.

    Notes: Measured pseudo-first-order rate constants for intramolecular formation of tetrahedral intermediates from N-2-hydroxyethylphthalimide, N-2-aminoethylphthalimide and N-2-thioethylphthalimide at pH 〉 6 are reported. The reaction is specific and general base catalysed, with β(Brønsted) values 0·44, 0·52 and 0·52 respectively. From a plot of log kb (general base rate constants) vs γ′ [the affinities of EtXH (X = O, NH, S) toward the carbonylic carbon], β′nuc values of 0·01 (with OH- as specific base), 0·25 (with imdidazole as general base) and 0·27 (with HPO42- as general base were obtained). The observed relationships pxy = ϑβ′/ - ϑpKa = -ϑ(Brønsted)/ϑγ′ = 0·03 is supported by the predictions of an energy contour diagram, which, on extrapolation to a non-stable tetrahedral intermediate, predicts a late and slightly protonated transition state for the cleavage process. At pH 〈 3, these intermediates cleave to yield only the corresponding diacylimides. These reactions are general base and acid catalysed with β 〉 0·3 and α 〈 0·1. A fast equilibrium between the intermediate and its N-protonated (amide) form is reached. The general base rupture of the latter is faster than that of the corresponding non-protonated intermediate by a factor of ca 109 - 1010-fold.

    Notes: A rigorous procedure was developed for measuring the relative rates of addition of bromine atoms to eleven substituted α-methylstyrenes (1-Y, with Y = CF3, NO2, F, CN, Cl, Br, CO2Me, Me, COMe, OMe and SMe). The reaction was run in tetrahydrofuran in the presence of HBr, O2 and dibutyl peroxyoxalate at 30°C. All products were derived from the YC6H4CMeCH2Br adduct radicals, which were immediately intercepted by O2. Correlation analysis of all the data confirmed the proposition that in the absence of measurable steric effects, the relative rates for radical additions can be correlated only by a dual-parameter equation and not by a single-parameter equation. Among various combinations of σ* and σx, the (σJJ* + σmb) combination yields the best correlation.

    Notes: Transfer of the cobalt-bound methyl in MeCo(III)Pc to thiophenoxide ion was studied (H2Pc is the planar macrocyclic phthalocyanine; the cobalt is held in the center in this plane). In dimethylacetamide solution, the reaction is rapid, requiring stopped flow for the kinetics, and yielding MeSPh and Co(I)Pc- in good yield. The kinetics are not simple second order, but instead approach a constant rate at high [PhS-], attributed to the reversible formation of an inert complex with PhS- occupying the vacant octahedral site in MeCo(III)Pc, on the other side of the phthalocyanine plane from the methyl group. The kinetics allow the estimation of the equilibrium constant, K, and the SN2 rate constant, k, which at 25°C have values of ca. 9·4 × 103 l mol-1 and 1·8 × 104 l mol-1, respectively. Although these values are rough, the ratio k/K is firm at 1·91 ± 0·02 s-1; this is the limit of the rate at high [PhS-]. An alternative mechanism, which is entirely consistent with the kinetics, involves a rate-determining homolysis of the Co—S bond of the same complex. The mechanism is not favored because the product yields are high for a radical combination process and alternative chain processes are kinetically unacceptable. Further, the rate constant is about what would be expected from the reactivity of other nucleophiles in SN2 reactions. Further arguments in favor of the SN2 mechanism are presented. This transfer of the methyl group from Co to S is part of the possible analogy to the vitamin B12-promoted methionine synthesis in nature. The other step in the biological, enzymatic process is the transfer of methyl from the nitrogen of N-methyltetrahydrofolate to cobalt. An attempt to model this with the very reactive N-methyl-2,6-dichloropyridinium ion was unsuccessful; the reaction took an entirely different course, presumably initiated by electron transfer, but leading to substantial loss of Cl- from the pyridine. No more than 0.5% methyl transfer took place. This system does mimic well the complete natural enzymatic process.

    Notes: Protonation of tetrafluoro-2,11-dithia [3·3]paracyclophane and tetrafluoro-2,11-dithia [3·3]metaparacyclophane in high-acidity super acid media, namely FSO3H.SbF5 (1:1) ‘magic acid’-SO2CIF, gave their corresponding acidic disulfonium ions. Additional ring protonation to give a disulfonium-monoarenium trication was not observed. With the non-fluorinated 2,11-dithia [3·3] cyclophanes, the disulfonium ions can be ring protonated in equilibrium to give a dynamic disulfonium-monoarenium trication. Tetrafluoro [2·2]-metaparacyclophane is monoprotonated at the meta ring and gives a complex mixture of conformational isomers. Multinuclear magnetic resonance data on the cyclophane precursors and their derived cations are compared and analysed. The energies, conformations and charge distributions of the isometric fluorinated and non-fluorinated [2·2] - and dithia [3·3] cyclophanes were calculated by the AM1 and PM3 methods, respectively. In all but one case the cyclophane arenium ions predicted by theory to be energetically most favoured are those observed in solution under stable ion conditions. In agreement with experiment, the instabilities of S,S,C-cyclophane trications are also theoretically predicted.

    Notes: The secondary α-deuterium isotpe effect on the equiliburium constant (KD/KH) for the hydration of p-nitrobenzaldehyde is 1·39 ± 0·05. The Kinetic secondary α-deuterium isotope effect (KD/KH) for the addition of water to p-nitrobenzaldehyde is 1·18 ± 0·07. This result demonstrates that there is extensive carbon-oxygen bond formation in the transition state for addition of water to the carbonyl group of p-nitrobezaldehyde.

    Notes: In constrast with recent molecular orbital calculations on the decarboxylation of O-protonated 2-oxetanone, this experimental work indicates that no decarboxylation of this cation occurs in sulphuric acid solution up to 150°C, but instead a clean isomerization to protonated acrylic acid takes place. Parallel theoretical work shows that the gas-phase model is too crude to account successfully for the experimental facts obtained in acidic media. However, the latter are well reproduced when the effect of the solvent is taken into account. The present findings do not necessarily invalidate the reaction mechanism currently accepted to explain the rate enhancement and change of stereochemistry accompanying the decarboxylation of 3,4-disubstituted 2-oxetanones under acid catalysis.

    Notes: The enol-keto tautomerism of the Schiff bases formed by pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) with ethylenediamine (Etd) and ethylamine (Et) was studied by electrochemical and spectrophotometric methods. The spectroscopic results revealed differences between the two reactions, i.e. the enolimine/ketoenamine ratio observed in PLP-Etd mixture is higher than that of PLP-Et. The differences observed in the electroreduction mechanism and stability of the Schiff bases formed provide additional evidence for an unusually high concentration of enolimine in PLP-Etd in buffered aqueous solutions.The results are consistent with a cyclic structure such as that previously proposed by Robitaille et al. [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 111, 3034-3047 (1989)] on the basis of spectroscopic data. Protonation of the terminal amino group of the Etd moiety in the Schiff base involves the formation of the cyclic species. The low basicity of ethylenediamine favours the formation of similar concentrations of the enol and keto tautomers of the Schiff base at neutral pH. This behaviour, also observed in the Schiff base formed by PLP and polylysine, may be involved in coenzyme-protein linkages.

    Notes: 2,2-Dimethyl-1-(p-methoxyphenyl)propyl p-nitrobenzoate (ROPNB) was subjected to solvolysis in phenol in the presence of tetrabutylammonium [carboxy-13C]-p-nitrobenzoate, in which the ‘common ion rate depression’ was confirmed to arise at the stage of the second ion-pair intermediate (Int-2). The unchanged substrate recovered at 46% reaction contained the isotopically labelled leaving group, indicating the occurrence of common ion exchange to the extent of 41-46%. In the solvolysis of the optically active substrate under identical conditions, the unchanged substrate was recovered with 51·4% racemization and ROPh was produced with slightly (1·56%) retained configuration, similarly to the solvolysis in the absence of the common ion salt. These isotope-tracer and stereochemical outcomes indicate that the common ion exchange in this solvolysis system should be attributable to the retentive nucleophilic attack on Int-2 by the common ion salt via a quadrupole (four-centre ion pair) transition state, accompanying the common ion rate depression, and they suggest that the special salt effect also should proceed by an analogous anion-exchange mechanism to that for the common ion effects.

    Notes: The hydride transfer reactions of 4,4′-bis(dimethylaminophenyl)methane (Michler's hydride) with p-benzoquinones were studied. The rate of formation of Michler's Hydrol Blue was followed spectrophotometrically. The second-order rate constants and the activation parameters were estimated. The formation of a charge-transfer complex was observed at low temperatures. Stable and unstable paramagnetic species formed during the reactions were assigned by ESR spectroscopy. The observed kinetic behaviour and the stoichiometry were in line with those previously obtained for the systems involving Leuco Crystal Violet, Leuco Malachite Green and Leuco Bindschedler's Green. Hence the reaction is considered to proceed according to the so-far accepted multi-step mechanism. However, when tetracyano-p-quinodimethane or tetracyanoethylene was used as a π-acceptor, a comparatively stable radical ion pair was formed as a result of a one-electron transfer, followed by the gradual formation of Michler's Hydrol Blue. The kinetic behaviour and the stoichiometry of the reaction were examined, together with the enhanced kinetic effects of added triethylamine. A modified mechanism for these systems is proposed. The role of cyanomethylenes was found to be essentially different from that of p-benzoquinones, and therefore π-acceptors are divided into two groups of cyanomethylenes and p-benzoquinones.

    Notes: Rates of hydrolysis of the vinyl ether functional groups of (Z)- and (E)-β-methoxyacrylic acid and (Z)-and (E)-β-methoxymethacrylic acid and their methyl esters were measured in aqueous perchloric acid solution. Additional rate measurements were also made for one substrate, (Z)-β-methoxymethacrylic acid, in buffer solutions down to pH 7, and a rate profile was constructed. The results show that the β-carboxy and β-carbomethoxy substituents produce strong rate retardations, ranging from 2000- to 25 000-fold, for both Z- and E-isomers in both the acrylic and methacrylic acid series. The rate profile for (Z)-β-methoxymethacrylic acid indicates that ionization of this substrate to the carboxylate ion form rises the rate of hydrolysis by a factor of 240. It is argued that this difference in reactivity of ionized and non-ionized forms of the substrate is due to conjugative and inductive effects of the substituents, rather than β-lactone formation as suggested in an earlier observation of the same phenomenon in a different system.

    Notes: Aromatic nitration is effectively carried out by the deliberate irradiation of the charge-transfer absorption band (hvCT) of the transient electron donor-acceptor complex [ArH, NO2Y+], where NO2Y+ represents common nitrating agents. Time-resolved spectroscopy demonstrates that the charge-transfer nitration effected in this way proceeds via an electron-transfer mechanism, in which the collapse of the reactive triad, [ArH+ ·, NO2·, Y] is critical to the formation of the Wheland intermediate. Comparative product analyses of toluene and anisole nitrations together with the ‘non-conventional’ products arising from NO+ catalysis, ipso attack and addition/elimination show that the activation process leading to charge-transfer (photochemical) nitration is indistinguishable from that leading to electrophilic (thermal) aromatic nitration.

    Notes: The stereochemistry and kinetics of the methoxide ion substitution reactions (Z)- and (E)-methylbenzohydroximoyl cyanidc [PhC(CN)=NOCH3] were investigated. The reaction of the (Z)-hydroximoyl cyanide with sodium methoxide in DMSO-methanol (9:1) solution at 44·8°C gives a mixture of methyl (Z)-O-methylbenzohydroximate [PhC(OCH3)=NOCH3] and the O-methyloxime of α-ketophenylacetamide PhC(CONH2)=NOCH3. The (E)-hydroximoyl cyanide undergoes methoxide ion-catalyzed isomerization to the E-isomer faster than it undergoes nucleophilic substitution. These observations were interpreted in terms of an addition-elimination mechanism in which the rate-limiting step is elimination of the nucleofuge (AN + DN#).

    Notes: Nucleophilic substitution reactions of 1-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl arenesulphonates with anilines and benzylamines in acetonitrile and methanol at 65·0°C were studied. The cross-interaction constants, ρXZ, between substituents in the nucleophile (X) and leaving group (Z) are relatively small (0·10 for XC6H4NH2 in MeCN) but similar to those for other SN2 processes at a secondary carbon atom. This provides further evidence for an approximately constant, loose SN2 transition state at a secondary carbon regardless of the size of the Cα substituent. The transition-state variations with substituents X and Z are in accord with that expected from the positive ρXZ value observed: a stronger nucleophile and/or nucleofuge leads to an earlier transition state, i.e. a lower degree of bond making and breaking.

    Notes: Imidazole (Imz)-catalysed hydrolysis of benzoate esters proceeds via the intermediate formation of N-benzoylimidazoles. This paper considers the second step of this reaction, viz., Imz-catalysed hydrolysis of N-(4-X-benzoyl)imidazoles, X = CH3, H, Cl, CN and NO2, and N-(disubstituted benzoyl)imidazoles, 2-chloro-4-nitro, 2, 4-dinitro and 3,5-dinitro, in water-acetonitrile mixtures (10% or 14%, v/v, in organic solvent). On the basis of catalytic rate constants and the kinetic solvent isotope effect, it is shown that catalysis by Imz is of the general-base type. Unexpectedly, the hydrolysis of N-(2,4-dinitrobenzoyl)imidazole was found to be slower than that of N-(4-nitrobenzoyl)imidazole. It is shown that this reactivity order is due to a combination of a steric effect and stabilization of the reactant state due to a donor-acceptor interaction between the Imz moiety and the 2,4-dinitrophenyl ring.

    Notes: The critical micelle concentration of solutions of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and of tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromides were determined by a kinetic method. This involved the determination of the rates of the hydroxydehalogenation of some activated aromatic substrates over a wide range of detergent concentrations. Measurements were made in solutions containing significant quantities of added hydroxyl ion and substrates which were themselves amphiphilic. Conventional methods cannot be applied with confidence to such systems. The effects of changing hydroxyl ion concentrations, added sodium bromide, changing the nature of the aromatic substrate (whether neutral or charged), the identity of the micellar counterion and the temperature were investigated. It was wound that added bromide or hydroxyl ions resulted in a lower CMC whereas increased temperature led to an increase in the CMC. The nature of the micellar counterion (Br, F, OH, SO4) had little effect on the CMC. The presence of a charged aromatic substrate led to a considerable lowering of the CMC, whereas the neutral aromatic substrate used showed very little effect.

    Notes: Kinetic studies on the reversible reactions of benzyl bromides with N, N-dimethylanilines were carried out for both the forward (kf) and reverse (kr) directions. The equilibrium constants, K were calculated using the ratio kf/kr and the equilibrium cross-interaction constant, ρeXY was determined. The ρeXY value was shown to represent a maximum intensity of interactions between substituents X and Y through covalent bonds within a molecule. The normalized values of ρX (ρnuc) and ρXY indicate that in the transition state the fractional development or loss of polar and resonance interactions in the benzyl system are imbalanced or non-perfectly synchronized. In the forward reaction the fractional loss of resonance interaction becomes enhanced, whereas in the reverse reaction the fractional development of resonance interaction lags behind the corresponding changes of polar interactions by ca 45%.

    Notes: The acid-catalysed solvolysis of 9-(2-phenoxy-2-propyl)fluorene in mixtures of water with acetonitrile or methanol at 25°C provides 9-(2-hydroxy-2-propyl)fluorene, 9-(2-propenyl)fluorene, and 9-(2-acetamido-2-propyl)fluorene or 9-(2-methoxy-2-propyl)fluorene, respectively. The overall kinetic deuterium isotope effects for the reactions of the hexadeuterated analogue 9-(1,1,1,3,3,3-2H6)-9-(2-phenoxy-2-propyl)fluorene in 90 vol.% acetonitrile in water were measured as (kEH + kSH)/(kED6 + kSD6) = 1·54 ± 0·05, which is composed of the isotope effect kSH/kSD6 = 1·4 ± 0·1 for formation of the substitution products and kEH/kED6 = 4·0 ± 0·2 for production of 9-(2-methoxy-2-propyl)fluorene. Similar isotope effects were measured in other solvent mixtures. The results strongly indicate a branched mechanism involving rate-limiting formation of a common carbocation-molecule pair (with a secondary isotope effect of 1·54), which either undergoes nucleophilic attack by a solvent molecule (with a secondary isotope effect of ca 1), or is dehydronated (isotope effect ca 2·8) by the leaving group or by the solvent. The ion-molecule pair shows very low selectivities. Thus, in 50 vol.% acetonitrile in water, an acetonitrile molecule is as efficient as a water molecule as a nucleophile towards the ion-molecule pair, kMeCN/kHOH ≥ 1 (ratio of second-order rate constants). The discrimination between methanol and water is anomalously small, kMeOH/kHOH = 0·7.

    Notes: The MM3 molecular mechanics program calculates a fair representation of hydrogen bonding interactions, but to improve the MM3 hydrogen bond potential, a directional term has been added to the hydrogen bonding function. The resulting total function was reoptimized. Comparisons of the hydrogen bonding potential functions from ab initio, the original MM3, the current MM3(92) force field and the reoptimized MM3 force field MM3(94) for a variety of C,N,O systems are described.

    Notes: The title sulphenamides were pyrolysed in a stirred-flow reactor at temperatures of 310-410°C, pressures of 8-15 Torr and residence times of 0·4-2 s using toluene as the carrier gas. N-(tert-Butylthio)allylamine formed 73 ± 4% isobutene, 23 ± 3% propene and N-allylthiohydroxylamine. The first-order rate coefficients for the formation of isobutene and propene, respectively, followed the Arrhenius equations kC4(s-1) = 1012·52 ± 0·36 exp(-163 ± 5 kJ mol-1 RT) and kC3(s-1) = 1010·99 ± 0·29 exp(-151 ± 4 kJ mol-1 RT) N-(tert-Butylthio)diethylamine gave 97 ± 1% isobutene, 1·9 ± 0·4% isobutane and N,N-diethylthiohydroxylamine. The first-order rate coefficients for isobutene elimination followed the Arrhenius equation k(s-1) = 1013·45 ± 0·24 exp(-164 ± 3 kJ mol-1 RT). The formation of the products is interpreted in terms of an elimination reaction with a unimolecular, four-centered, cyclic transition state. The reactivity of these sulphenamides was found to be much higher than that of previously studied alkyl or aryl tert-butyl sulphides and disulphides.

    Notes: The reactivity of 1,3-dihaloadamantanes with diphenylphosphide ions (Ph2P-) in liquid ammonia was studied. 1,3-Dichloroadamantane (1a), 1-bromo-3-chloroadamantane (1b) and 1,3-dibromoadamantane (1c) reacted with Ph2P- ions under photostimulation by the SRN1 mechanism. Irradiation of 1c without Ph2P- ions gave no reaction (〈5%). Three products were found: 1,3-bis(diphenyphosphinyl)adamantane (2), (3-X-1-adamantyl)diphenylphosphine (X = Cl, 3a; X = Br, 3b) and 1-adamantyldiphenylphosphine (4). Compounds 2 and 4 were formed by intramolecular electron transfer (ET) of the radical anion 3a-· (3b-·); whereas 3a (3b) were formed by intermolecular ET of this radical anion to the substrates. It was observed that the product distribution depends on the substrate and reaction conditions.

    Notes: Transition structures for the Diels-Alder reactions of 1,3,4-oxadiazole with ethylene, acrylonitrile, maleonitrile, fumaronitrile, and 1,1-dicyanoethylene were located with ab initio molecular orbital calculations with the RHF/3-21G theoretical model. The activation energies were calculated by single-point calculations with the RHF/6-31G* and MP2/6-31G* theory levels on the RHF/3-21G geometries. Geometries of two transition structures and the corresponding reactants were generated at the MP2/6-31G* and the energies evaluated at the MP3/6-31G* level. The values obtained are comparable to those generated by MP2/6-31G*//3-21G. The asynchronicity of the transition structures follow the same trend as the corresponding all-carbon Diels-Alder reactions with buta-1,3-diene and cyclopentadiene, but the activation energies are almost in opposite correlation. This behavior is explained by the oxadiazole nitrogen lone pair repulsion with the π-orbitals of the nitrile groups.

    Notes: The reaction of 2-(p-nitrophenyl)ethyl bromide with hydroxide ion was studied at 50 and 25°C in the presence of cationic chemodegradable surfactants, i.e. [2-alkyl(1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl] trimethylammonium bromides Ia-c (alkyl: a = n-C9H19, b = n-C11H23, c = n-C13H27). The kinetic data were interpreted with the pseudo-phase ion-exchange (PIE) formalizm at both temperatures. The results indicate that the major source of rate enhancement is the increased reactant concentration in the small micellar reaction volume. The surfactant stability in micellar conditions was probed by means of a hydrolysis reaction of the surfactant 1,3-dioxolane ring. The kinetics of acid hydrolysis of Ia-c micelles, as a result of specific hydronium ion concentration, is one order of magnitude smaller than that of unaggregated systems.

    Notes: Transition states for the hetero-Diels-Alder addition of formaldehyde, formaldimine, diazene and nitrosyl hydride to cyclopentadiene were located with ab initio molecular orbital calculations. Asynchronous transition structures were located for the asymmetric hetero-dienophiles, whereas the symmetrical hetero-dienophile, cis-diazene, produced a synchronous transition structure. The relative reactivities are in good agreement with the LUMO energies of the hetero-dienophiles, and the transition states with the exo oxygen or nitrogen lone pairs have lower energies than the corresponding endo lone electron pair transition states. Endo/exo energy differences are much higher than in the addition of ethylene derivatives to cyclopentadiene.

    Notes: The equilibrium acidities, pKHA, of 18 dialkyl malonates, five alkyl 2-cyanoacetates and nine malononitriles and the oxidation potentials of their conjugate anions, EOX(A-), were measured in dimethyl sulfoxide solution. The homolytic bond dissociation enthalpies (BDEs) of their acidic C-H were estimated by combining their pKHA and EOX(A-) values. The pKHA values of the dialkyl malonates were found to increase from 15·9 to 16·4 to 18·4 as the dialkyl groups were changed from dimethyl to diethyl to di-tert-butyl, but the BDEs of the acidic C-H bonds remained constant [95·3±0·3 kcal mol-1] (1 kcal = 4·184 kJ). Introduction of methyl, ethyl, isopropyl and tert-butyl groups into the 2-position of diethyl malonate caused the equilibrium acidities to increase by 2·0, 2·4, 3·8 and 8·0 pKHA units, respectively, and the BDE values to decrease by 4·4, 3·7, 2·5 and 0·8 kcal mol-1, respectively. Introduction of a phenyl group into the 2-position of diethyl malonate had no effect on the acidity, but weakened the acidic C-H bond by 10 kcal mol-1. The effects on acidity and BDE of introducing 3,4,5- (MeO)3C6H2CO, CF3, Me3N+, c-C5H10N, p-MeC6H4, p-NO2C6H4, PhO, F and c-C5H5N+ groups into the 2-position of diethyl malonate were also examined.

    Notes: The solvatochromic hydrogen bond donor (HBD) acidity parameter (αmix) of aqueous mixtures of methanol, acetonitrile, propan-2-ol and tetrahydrofuran were determined spectrophotometrically. The study was carried out at 25deg;C as a function of composition. The indicators used were 2,6-diphenyl-4-(2,4,6-triphenyl-N-pyridino)phenolate, 2,6-dichloro-4-(2,4,6-triphenyl-N-pyridino)phenolate and Fe(LL)2(CN)2 (LL = N-(2-pyridylbenzylidene)-3,4-dimethylaniline). The HBD acidity of the aqueous organic mixtures was related to retention in reversed-phase liquid chromatography.

    Notes: Semi-empirical (AM1) calculations on the 12 isomeric products and the corresponding transition states of ketene-1-azabutadiene [4 + 2] and [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions as a model system for the reaction of ketenes with 4-iminobenzylfuran-2,3-diones are presented. A [4 + 2] type of reaction of the ketene C=C double bond leading to a six-membered lactam compound is found to be highly favoured both thermodynamically and kinetically. [2 + 2] Cycloadducts generally have significantly higher activation energies. Reactions involving the formation of a carbon-nitrogen bond proceed in most cases via attack of the nitrogen lone pair leading to a zwitterionic intermediate. Depending on the respective cycloadduct, both two-step and concerted, albeit asynchronous, processes were obtained. Based on the structures of the various transition states, some predictions with respect to substituent effects are made. Similarities to and differences from the analogous reaction of ketenimines with oxa-1,3-dienes are discussed.

    Notes: New N-alkylation and N-arylation procedures starting from anilinomagnesium (ArNHMgBr) are reported. For N-alkylation with alkyl bromides, addition of hexamethylphosphoramide to an ArNHMgBr solution in tetrahydrofuran (THF) is effective. After heating at 55°C, N-monoalkylation product was obtained in 60-90% yield, slight dialkylation taking place. The combined use of aryliminodimagnesium [ArN(MgBr)2] with α,ω-dibromoalkanes led to N-arylazacycloalkanes. For N-arylation with iodobenzene, replacement of THF with pyridine and additional use of copper(I) iodide are effective. After heating at 115°C with iodobenzene, mono- and diarylation products were obtained, the former being predominant. The combined use of ArNHMgBr and N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine as the ligand of copper species is effective for elimination of diarylation and other undesired products, and leads to diarylamines in excellent yield. The method is of advantage over the conventional Ullmann and Chapman methods. The polar solvents and copper salt are effective additives for inducing ‘inert combinations’ of ArNHMgBr or ArN(MgBr)2 with alkyl and aryl halides into N—C coupling, to extend the unified view proposed for the reactivity of magnesium reagents. The difference in the roles of N—Mg and N—Cu species is discussed.

    Notes: Laser flash photolysis of a series of alklylbromo- and alkylfluorodiazirines in pentane at ambient temperature generates alkylhalocarbenes by decomposition of the diazirine excited states. The halocarbenes can be intercepted with pyridine to form ylides. The ylides absorb intensely between 350 and 400 nm and are fairly long lived (τ » 10 μs), making them convenient probes of the yield and dynamics of the carbene. The yield of the ylides increases with increasing pyridine concentration up to 1·5 M. At pyridine concentrations 〉 1·5 M the yield of ylide is saturated, signifying that every carbene generated in a laser pulse is captured by pyridine prior to reaction with solvent or intramolecular rearrangement. The yield of trappable carbene generated from alkylbromodiazirines closely tracks the bond dissociation energy of the C—H bond adjacent to the diazirine moiety. The data indicate that the excited states of the alkylbromodiazirines suffer C—H migration (or C—C migration with cyclobutylbromodiazirine) and nitrogen extrusion in competition with carbene formation. The yield of trappable carbene derived from the alkylfluorodiazirines is independent of the bond dissociation energy of the adjacent C—H bond. This is probably a consequence of the great thermodynamic stability of α-fluorocarbenes.

    Notes: Reaction of aryliminodimagnesium [ArN(MgBr)2, IDMg] with nitrobenzene (Ar1NO2) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) gives unsymmetrical (unsym) azoxybenzene, which is deoxygenated to give unsym-azobenzene. The reaction is utilized for the independent preparation of ONN and NNO isomers of unsym-azoxy compounds. The effects of the relative value of the difference between oxidation and reduction potentials of para-substituted reactants, special effects of ortho-substituents of the substrate and also effects of structure and concentration of mono- and bis-IDMg reagents were studied previously, and ‘cooperation of their aggregate excess needed for product formation’ was proposed. This unfamiliar concept for reactions of magnesium reagents was studied further. Supporting evidence was obtained from the retarding effect of trimethylene chains of nitro [3.3] metacyclophanes and the derived azoxy [3.3] metacyclophanes and also from the effect of the length of bis-IDMg's central α,ω-polymethylenedioxy chain appropriate for azoxy deoxygenation. By comparison with deoxygenation by X3P reagents (X = EtO, Me2N), the general needs of cooperation of excess magnesium reagents were confirmed and its role in their reactions is discussed.

    Notes: Measurements of absorption and emission spectra, fluorescence quantum yields (Φf) and lifetimes (τf) of ω-(1-pyrenyl)alkyl para-substituted benzoates PnX (X = H, Cl, CF3, CN, NO2, with n = 1-4) were carried out in solvents of various polarity. Intramolecular interaction in the ground state is not observed in any of these compounds. PnCN (n = 2-4) shows an intramolecular exciplex emission in solvents of low to high polarity. The broad, structureless emission at longer wavelength observed in ethyl acetate solution of P1CN is ascribed to an ‘exciplex-type’ emission which does not require actual overlapping of the two chromophores. P2CF3 also shows an exciplex emission in solvents of medium to high polarity. The solvent dependence of both Φf and τf increases as the electron-withdrawing ability of the para-sustituents increases. The relationship between fluorescence quenching by electron transfer and para-substituent of PnX is discussed by means of the free energy for electron transfer, ΔGET, obtained from the oxidation and reduction potentials of pyrene and methyl para-substituted benzoates in acetonitrile, respectively. PnH, with positive ΔGET, does not show a solvent dependence of Φf, except for P1H, in which ca 40% of the fluorescence is quenched in acetonitrile. PnCl, with slightly negative ΔGET, shows more efficient quenching, but does not show exciplex emission. PnCN, PnCF3 and PnNO2 have ΔGET values between -0·36 and -0·65 eV, and their fluorescence is fairly efficiently quenched. The fluorescence of PnCN is concluded to be strongly quenched by intersystem crossing from the singlet exciplex to the locally excited pyrene, and by electron transfer from the pyrene part to the benzoate part. That the formation of a singlet exciplex is necessary for intersystem crossing in bichromophoric compounds containing pyrene is thus clearly illustrated.

    Notes: Magnetic coupling between two sterically protected phenoxyl radicals through the cis- and trans-stilbene chromophores was studied by means of their EPR fine structures. While the zero-field splitting parameters D, which are governed by the magnitude of dipolar coupling, were dependent on the geometrical isomerism, the sign of exchange coupling was independent of it and dictated by the topology of the π-conjugated systems: ferromagnetic in o,m-isomers and antiferromagnetic in m,m'-isomers.

    Notes: The radical cation of N,N′-bis-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)pyridazine (3·+) has a near-IR band with a transition energy of 29·7 ± 0·5 kcal mol-1 (1 kcal = 4·184 kJ) in acetonitrile. This band is assigned to a Hush-type charge-transfer band, and the transition energy to the Marcus λ value for electron transfer. Such a large λ is inconsistent with previous estimates of λ for intermolecular electron transfer between mono-p-phenylenediamines and their radical cations. It agrees well with estimates of λ based on AM1 semi-empirical MO calculations, which gives the enthalpy contribution to λin at about 21 kcal mol-1 for 3·+. It is suggested that the traditional method of estimating λin by summing bond displacements weighted by force constants produces values which are significantly too low for systems such as phenylenediamines, where pyramidalization changes are important. The results suggest that λ for tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine self-electron transfer (10/·+) has been significantly underestimated, and that this prototype organic electron transfer reaction is not as strongly diabatic as was previously concluded.

    Notes: Ionization constants for 214 dye molecules were calculated from molecular structures using the chemical reactivity models developed in SPARC (SPARC Performs Automated Reasoning in Chemistry). These models used fundamental chemical structure theory to predict chemical reactivities for a wide range of organic molecules from molecular structure. The energy differences between the protonated state and the unprotonated state for a molecule of interest are factored into mechanistic components including the electrostatic and resonance contributions and any additional contributions to these energy differences. The RMS deviation was found to be less than 0·62 pKa units, which is similar to the experimental error.

    Notes: An empirical formula relating directly H⃛O interatomic distance to H⃛O interaction energy is used to estimate this energy in intramolecular O—H⃛O hydrogen bonds calculated for systems of known precise geometry. The values obtained were correlated with spectroscopic characteristics of the H-bond (Δv for OH bands in IR spectra and NMR chemical shifts, δ, for protons) and CNDO and INDO estimations of H-bond energy. The regressions obtained had good or very good correlation coefficients.

    Notes: Cleavage reactions of α- and β-naphthylmethyl phenyl ethers and of α- and β-naphthyl benzyl ethers were studied by pulse radilysis. Transient spectra indicate that reactions occur via electron capture followed by cleavage of the resultant radical anions to give arylmethyl radicals and aryloxide ions. Product studies of extensively irradiated samples are consistent with this scheme and show patterns which are informative for radiation studies in general. The reactions were studied in several solvents. The behavior of transient spectra obtained in acetonitrile for these ethers shows clearly that radical anions of the naphthylmethyl ethers cleave more rapidly than do the radical anions of the naphthyl benzyl ethers.

    Notes: Solvent effects on the absorption spectra of N-(p-nitrophenyl)dimethylenediamine (Ia), N-(p-nitrophenyl)trimethylenediamine (Ib), N-(p-nitrophenyl)tetramethylenediamine (Ic). N-methyl-N-(p-nitrophenyl)tetramethylenediamine (II), N-butyl-p-nitroaniline (III) and N-(o-nitrophenyl)trimethylenediamine (IV) were studied at different temperatures. Whereas II, III and IV do not show any variation in their spectra characteristics with changes in temperature, I shows a hypsochromic shift with a hypochromic effect when the temperature is increased. The Kamlet and Taft solvatochromic comparison method was applied. A strong effect of the β parameter on I and III was interpreted as being due to the hydrogen bond donor ability of the H atom in the aromatic amino groups. In I, the β influence increases with increase in temperature. These facts are explained by proposing the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds between amine groups in all compounds I, besides the intermolecular interactions between compounds I and the solvent. On the other hand, the values of vo, s and b for Ib are smaller than the corresponding values for Ia and Ic. Since in Ib a six-membered ring may be formed, a more stable bond is expected. Comparative 1H NMR of the aniline hydrogen for I and IV (in non-hydrogen bond acceptor solvents) shows a particular downfield chemical shift for I which suggests hydrogen bond formation. Since this effect is independent of concentration, the hydrogen bond is assumed to be intramolecular, in agreement with solvatochromic and thermochromic studies. These conclusions were corroborated by IR spectroscopy in the solid state and in chloroform solutions.

    Notes: The reduction of 9-cyanoanthracene by two equivalents of potassium in liquid ammonia was shown to yield the 9-cyanoanthracene dianion, whereas 1-naptho- and benzonitrile gave the cyanodihydroaryl anions corresponding to the protonation of nitrile dianions at a position para to the cyano group. The 9-cyanoanthracene dianion underwent the same transformation in the presence of a stronger protonating agent, methanol. According to 13C NMR spectral data of the generated species, the cyano group extracts the negative charge from the π-electronic system: ca 0·20:0·25 e in the case of the 9-cyanoanthracene dianion and ca 0·14:0·17 e in the case of cyanodihydroaryl anions. These estimations and the general NMR pattern of π-charge distribution in all the anionic species under investigation are in accordance with data from quantum molecular orbital calculations at the PM3 and INDO levels, being reflected by the fairly good linear relationships between the changes of ring carbon chemical shifts on going to the anionic species from the respective neutral precursors on the one hand and the calculated π-charges on the other. The para-orienting effect of the cyano group in the protonation of nitrile dianions is discussed in terms of the π-charge distribution in the starting dianion and the tendency to form a most stable cyanodihydroaryl anion isomer.

    Notes: Dipole moments, average molecular weights and IR spectra of 2-oxoidoline (I), 2-oxo-3-methylindoline (II) and 2-oxo-3,3-dimenthylindoline (III) and their N-methyl-substituted analogues were studied in CCl4 solutions at various concentrations. It was shown that the molecules with an N—B bond associate exclusively to cyclic dimers. The values of the association constants (K) were determined by IR spectrometry. Other methods gave too broad intervals of possible K values. The spectroscopic association constants of compounds I-III are very similar, 380, 350 and 370 dm3 mol-1, respectively. The vs(NH) band shift on association is 275 cm-1.

    Notes: Structural effects on the melting points of substituted alkanes, both branched and unbranched, ranging in length from 1 to 19 carbon atoms, were successfully correlated with a variant of the intermolecular force equation which included a variable capable of accounting for the packing energy contribution of the alkyl group. The final data set had 366 data points. The regression equation obtained accounted for 91·85% of the variance of the data with a standard error of 17·9 K. Twenty-nine data points could not be included in the correlation; nine of these are carboxamides. The contributions of the polar variables are slightly larger than those of the nonpolar variables while the contribution of structural variation in the substituent is greater than that in the alkyl group. It will be necessary to determine appropriate values of the packing parameter if compounds with chains longer than 20 carbon atoms are to be included in the model.

    Notes: A semi-empirical configuration interaction (CI) algorithm is presented for predicting the ground-state spin multiplicity of open-shell systems. The computed energy gaps ΔE(LS—HS) of model systems, Y-phenyl-X-phenyl-Y, where Y is a nitrene or nitroxide radical and X is an exchange coupling unit, are critically compared with the available experimental data. The current method has attenuated the deficiencies of the earlier algorithm proposed by Lahti and Ichimura and the predictions are qualitatively clearer, facilitating the classification of high- and low-spin topologies for isomeric species. The relative effectiveness of different exchange couplers can be discerned semi-quantitatively, and several new exchange couplers are described. The reasons for the qualitative failure of the earlier algorithm are discussed.

    Notes: According to quantum chemical calculations, the anion radical of disilene adopts a syn- or anti-pyramidal geometry. The former is not a stable entity on the electronic hypersurface and it decreases further in energy by rotation of the Si-Si bond. Energy optimization of various structural alternatives reveals for the anion radical an Si-Si bond slightly longer than a single bond. The anti geometry prefers a C2h geometry whereas the syn geometry resembles a silylene coupled with a silylene radical anion. The fragmentation of disilene into two silylene units is less exothermic for the neutral species than for the anion (radical), as examined by the ab initio calculations.

    Notes: The conformational properties of diethyl disulphide, a model compound for the disulphide bridges in peptides and proteins, were studied with ab initio methods. Stationary point structures were optimized at the HF/6-31G* level with consideration of electron correlation in subsequent single-point MP2 calculations. The six energy minima were also optimized at the MP2/6-31G* level with calculation of zero-point vibrational frequencies and thermal corrections. Additional single-point MP2 energy calculations employed larger basis sets up to 6-311G(2d, p). With positive disulphide chirality, the global energy minimum is a ‘spiral’ conformation with gauche + C-C-S-S torsion angles. The further stability order for energy minima deviates from previous ab initio results. In particular, the extended trans,trans conformer is subject to a significant relative destabilization on inclusion of electron correlation in the calculations and is only the fifth most stable energy minimum with estimated ab initio ΔH298 = 5·13 kJ mol-1. The results presented are relevant for the discussion of conformational properties for the structurally equivalent disulphide bridges in polypeptides and calculations of relative energies with molecular mechanics methods.

    Notes: Calculations were carried out to study the validity of σ-scales for hydrogen abstraction from substituted toluenes by tert-butyl, tert-butoxyl and tert-butylperoxyl radicals. Rate constants were compiled and evaluated from the literature for meta- and/or para-substituted toluenes. The substituents were characterized by factored ionic sigmas (σI, σR, σR+), ionic scales (σ, σ+) and various radical sigmas (σσ). The dependence of log k values on these substituent descriptors was investigated using ‘stepwise linear regression’ and ‘all possible regression’ methods. The following predictive equations can be recommended: for tert-butyl radicals, at 321 K: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\log \,k_1 \, = \,1.024\, + \,0.776\,\sigma _1 \, + \,0.653\,\sigma _{\mathop C\limits^. }} \quad {(R\, = \,0.8137)} \end{array}$$\end{document} for tert-butoxyl radicals, at 313 K: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\log k_2 = 5.529 - 0.623\sigma ^ +} \quad {(R = 0.9376)} \end{array}$$\end{document} and for tert-butylperoxyl radicals, at 303 K: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\log k_3 = - 1.410 - 0.810\sigma + 0.337\sigma _{\mathop C\limits^. } } \quad {(R = 0.9628)}\end{array}$$\end{document} The results suggest that there is no unversal radical scale for hydrogen abstraction reactions, that the rate is primarily influenced by polar factors (inductive, resonance) and that only two radical scales (σĊ and σα·) are appropriate, showing a small, yet significant, role of radical stabilization.

    Notes: Acidities of a representative range of carbon acids were calculated by various levels of ab initio theory and by the semi-empirical methods AM1 and PM3 in order to ascertain what level is necessary in order to obtain consistently reliable results. The semi-empirical methods give good agreement with experiment in about a third of the cases, but are significantly, and sometimes seriously, in error for the rest. The 3-21G ab initio method consistently underestimates acidities by a substantial amount. The best results were obtained at the MP2/6-31 + G*//6-31 + G* level. Higher level Møller-Plesset corrections worsened the agreement with experiment.

    Notes: Nucleophilic substitution reactions of benzoic anhydrides, in which one of the rings is substituted, with anilines were investigated in methanol. The product-formation step coincides with the rate-limiting step so that the two rate constants, kXZ and kXZ, for the competitive reaction pathways can be dissected. The two cross-interaction constants, ρXY and ρXY, especially an unusually large magnitude of the latter, indicate that the reaction proceeds by a frontside SN2 attack on either one of the caronyl carbon with a strong interaction between the nucleophile (X) and the leaving group (Z). The mechanism is also supposed by the trends in the activation parameters.

    Notes: The 15N chemical shifts of various m- and p-substituted anilides and related derivatives, ZNHC6H4Y [Z = C6H5CO, CH3CO, CF3CO, CH3SO2, (C6H5O)2PO and H], were correlated with σ- constants. With all series of anilides investigated, the plotted points for the m- and p-substituted derivatives tend to be separated from each other and to lie on two different regression lines. Reinvestigation from this point of view revealed that similar separations occur generally with substituted aniline derivatives. The anomalous polar substituent effect was ascribed to the very large contribution of a resonance effect. In addition, the local π-polarization effect causes a negative slope for the m-substituted series in the case of carboxylic anilides.

    Notes: The spontaneous hydrolysis of p-nitrobenzyl cellulose xanthate (CelXNB) with a degree of substitution (DS) in the range 2-9 was studied in 10% aqueous ethanol at pH 10, and was followed spectrophotometrically by the appearance of p-nitro-α-toluenethiol, in a continuous-flow system where the reactor was shaken. CelXNB was characterized by solid-state 13C NMR spectra. The reaction occurs through two parallel processes due to two xanthate ester groups with different reactivities. The fast hydrolysis was ascribed to the reaction of the C-2 + C-3 isomers, whereas the slow hydrolysis was due to the C-6 isomer. The percentage of the latter is much higher than C-2 + C-3. The solvent isotope effect of the fast hydrolysis (k′H2O/)k′H2D 11 was 2·22 ± 0·16 and the proton inventory indicated that there is only one proton transfer involved in the transition state, where a second water (or a neighbouring OH group) acts as a general base. The entropy of activation of the fast hydrolysis was only 3·3 ± 0·8 e.u., suggesting that the water molecules involved are highly oriented with respect to the coordinates required to reach the transition state. It is proposed that they form part of the three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded ice-like structure that involves the cellulose matrix.

    Notes: The aromatic odd-alternant phenalenyl anion and a number of its derivatives were prepared in order to study the perturbation of this conjugated anion by methyl and methoxy groups. The conjugated anions were studied by means of 1H and 13C NMR spectrometry, alkylation experiments and semi-empirical calculations. It was found that a substituent at a charged carbon atom perturbs the entire conjugated system, whereas substituents at inactive (uncharged) carbon atoms have a large effect on the positions ortho to the substituent.

    Notes: Cubane diester crown ethers were tested as ion-selective electrodes in poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membranes. The four ionophores studied proved to be good K+ neutral carriers, showing Nernstian and near-Nernstian responses to this ion, in the range 10-4-10-1 M. The fixed interferences method was used to determine relative selectivity coefficients for all the electrodes. The highest selectivity for potassium relative to sodium, lithium, calcium and magnesium ions using potassium tetrakis(p-chlorophenyl)borate (KTpClPB) as a resistance modifier and NPOE as a plasticizer was obtained with the 1,4-cubyl diester-25-crown-7 ether ionophore. The effects of KTpCIPB on membrane selectivity were assessed; its removal was found to increase the selectivity of the four ionophores for potassium relative to cesium, sodium, calcium and magnesium ions with minimal effects on lithium and ammonium ions. The compounds tested exhibited a fast Nernstian response to changes in K+ concentration which was stable to within 〈100 μV h-1.

    Notes: The role of orbital control in product selectivity during electrophilic aromatic alkylation catalysed by zeolites was studied both theoretically and experimentally. In order to discuss this, the alkylation of toluene and m-xylene by methanol was carried out on a series of large-pore zeolites (HY). The changes in the para to ortho ratio observed on changing the framework Si/Al ratio of the zeolites were related to ab initio molecular orbital calculations of the LUMO energy of structurally alike model clusters but containing different tetrahedral cations around the active site. The observed correlation is discussed in terms of the HSAB principle by taking into account the influence of the catalyst composition on the reactivity of the electrophilic reagent.

    Notes: The reaction which forms hydroxymethylbenzodioxane from epibromohydrin and catecholate anion was examined by ultraviolet spectroscopy for the kinetics and by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to follow the fate of CD2 from reactant to product. Over the practical temperature range it was found that both CH2 positions in the epihalohydrin are attacked by catecholate anion to give product. Therefore, the difference in energy for the two pathways was small. The individual rate constants were obtained from the total rate constants. Further, the individual ΔH

    Notes: The reaction of nitrosobenzene with aniline, to give azobenzene, in basic conditions was studied. It was shown that the reaction exhibits general base catalysis by different buffers giving a Brønsted coefficient β = 0·318. As in previous studies, a two-step process with a first step of attack of aniline on nitrosobenzene to give an addition intermediate and a second step of dehydration of this intermediate is proposed to interpret the mechanism of the reaction. The analysis of the Brønsted relationship and of the intermediate of the reaction led to the suggestion that hydoxide ion catalyses the reaction by a mechanism of general base catalysis in the dehydration step.

    Notes: The reaction of several nitro activated aromatic halides with hydroxide ions was studied in the presence of hydroxy functionalized micelles containing bulky head groups, e.g. C16H33N+R2CH2CH2OH Br-, where R = Me, Et, Bu. In a biphasic reaction, the aryl halide is first converted into an aryl mincellar ether which subsequently reacts with hydroxide ions to form the phenolic product. Despite the increased nucleophilicity of hydroxide ions as water is squeezed away from the micelle surface by the bulky head groups, no direct reaction of the aromatic substrate with hydroxide ion is detectable. In the second phase of reaction, the breakdown of the aryl micellar ether to form the phenolic product, the order of reactivity in the different micelles is dependent on the steric interactions between substituents ortho to the reaction centre and the head group of the micelle. For compounds having one substituent ortho to the reaction centre, the order of reactivity is Bu 〉 Me 〉 Et, whereas for 2-chloro-1,3-dinitrobenzene, which has two substituents ortho to the reaction centre, the order is Me 〉 Et 〉 Bu.

    Notes: The utility of desorption/ionization mass spectrometric (DI/MS) techniques in dealing with physical organic problems involving fragile onium salts and carbocation salts has been explored. The efficacy of these methods, especially when coupled to tandem mass spectrometry, goes much beyond the analytical aspects dealing with identity/purity determinations. For example, insight can be gained regarding the role of the counterion in subsequent cation decomposition pathways. Guest-host chemistry of onium ions and various hosts (crowns, calixarenes) can be probed. The decomposition chemistry of the resulting ion-molecule clusters can be studied. Examples of onium salts and carbocation salts that have been studied are few, probably because research in this area has been mainly a domain for analytical chemists. This paper calls attention to the possibilities for dealing with topical physical organic problems.

    Notes: The rates of the solvolysis of 3-R-4-homoadamantyl methanesulphonates (mesylates) (3) were determined in 80% aqueous ethanol. The relative first-order rate constants at 25 °C were 1·0 (R = H), 2·29 (R = Ph), 3·26 (R = p-anisyl), 73·6 (R = Me) and 209 (R = Et). The methanolysis of 3 gave rearranged methyl ethers and rearranged olefins as major products together with small amounts (0·9-3·4%) of unrearranged products. The order of the accelerating effect suggests that the transition states involve significant σ-participation, despite the fact that 3 (R = H) solvolyses via a classical ion intermediate. The logarithms of the solvolysis rate constants of 3 showed linear correlations with those of 1-R-2-adamantyl tosylates (1) and 1-R-exo-2-norbornyl tosylates (2), indicating that the linear free-energy relationship between the β-substituent effects on the solvolysis rate is not a definite measure to distinguish between classical and non-classical intermediates.

    Notes: A series of m,n′-diazidodiphenyl ethers (m ≤ n, m = 3,4; n = 3,4) was photolyzed at 77 K in frozen, glassy 2-methyltetrahydrofuran matrices to generate the corresponding diphenyl ether m,n′-dinitrenes for study by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. 3,4′-Diazidodiphenyl ether gave an ESR spectrum dominated by a mononitrene peak with ∣D/hc∣ = 0·972 cm-1, and also showed a weak dinitrene quintet spectrum with ∣D/hc∣ = 0·162 cm-1 having ESR spectral intensity vs temperature dependence (Curie law) consistent with either a high-spin ground state or a very small singlet-quintet gap. Di(3-azidophenyl) ether gave a strong mononitrene peak with ∣D/hc∣ = 0·996 cm-1 and a quintet dinitrene ESR spectrum (∣D/hc∣ = 0·162 cm-1) which exhibited non-linear Curie law intensity behavior consistent with the quintet being a thermally populated excited state 40 cal mol-1 above a singlet ground state. Di(4-azidophenyl) ether gave a strong mononitrene peak with ∣D/hc∣ = 0·961 cm-1, but no observable spectrum related to a high-spin open-shell dinitrene. The results are consistent with oxygen being a weak exchange coupling linker in pi-conjugated open-shell molecules. The observed ground-state spin multiplicities are in accord with qualitative superexchange and connectivity models, despite any perturbations due to resonance effects between the oxygen linker and p-nitrene sites.

    Notes: The kinetics of the nucleophilic cleavage of phthalimide (PTH) in buffer solutions of ammonia and pyrrolidine were determined. The reaction rates for ammonolysis of PTH revealed a buffer-catalysed second-order term in the rate law, but the reaction rates for pyrrolidinolysis of PTH showed buffer-catalysed second- and third-order terms in the rate law. Both ammonia and pyrrolidine revealed nucleophilic reactivity towards ionized PTH (S-) only within the pH range of the present study. This is attributed to the occurrence of intramolecular general base-acid catalysis. General base catalysis is detected in the reactions of pyrrolidine with both non-ionized PTH (SH) and S-. The general base-catalysed third-order rate constant for pyrrolidinolysis of SH is nearly 28 times larger than that of S-.
