    Notes: Abstract  In one of his classical studies on insect metamorphosis, Weismann compared the imaginal anlagen of the ancestral phantom midge, Chaoborus, with those of advanced brachycerans. We have expanded his findings on the relationships between larval and imaginal organs using electron microscopy and cobalt backfilling of the antenna and leg anlagen and the axonal trajectories of corresponding larval sensilla. We show that both primordia are confluent with the larval antennae and ”leg” sensilla (an ancestral Keilin organ), respectively. These fully developed larval organs represent the distal tips of the imaginal anlagen rather than separate cell clusters. The axons of the larval antenna and leg sensilla project across the corresponding anlagen to their target neuromeres within the central nervous system (CNS). Within the discs, nerves composed of these larval axons, developing afferent fibres and efferences ascending from the CNS are found. Both the structure of the primordia and the axonal trajectories thus relate the situation found in advanced brachycerans with that seen in more ancestral insects. In addition, the larval antennae, legs, wings and even the eyes possess very similar afferent pioneer trajectories supporting the idea that the described pattern is generally used in the ontogeny of sensory systems.

    Notes: Abstract  In this study, megasporogenesis of the plant model Arabidopsis thaliana was investigated by electron microscopy for the first time. The data described here could constitute a reference for future investigations of Arabidopsis mutants. During the beginning of meiosis the megaspore mother cell shows a polarity created by unequal distribution of organelles in the cytoplasm. Plastids accumulate in the chalazal region and long parallel saccules of endoplasmic reticulum, small vacuoles and some dictyosomes are found in the micropylar region. Plasmodesmata are abundant in the chalazal cell wall. The nucleus is almost centrally localized and contains a prominent excentric nucleolus and numerous typical synaptonemal complexes. After the second division of meiosis the four megaspores are separated by thin cell walls crossed by numerous plasmodesmata and do not show significant cellular organization. The young functional megaspore is characterized by a large nucleus and a large granular nucleolus. The cytoplasm is very electron dense due to the abundance of free ribosomes and contains the following randomly distributed organelles: mitochondria, a few short saccules of endoplasmic reticulum, dictyosomes and undifferentiated plastids. However, there is no apparent polarity, except for the distribution of some small vacuoles which are more abundant in the micropylar region of the cell. The degenerating megaspores are extremely electron dense and do not show any substructure.

    Notes: Abstract Microorganisms that hydrolyse the ester linkages between phenolic acids and polysaccharides in plant cell walls are potential sources of enzymes for the degradation of lignocellulosic waste. An anaerobic, mesophilic, spore-forming, xylanolytic bacterium with high hydroxy cinnamic acid esterase activity was isolated from the gut of the grass-eating termite Tumilitermes pastinator. The bacterium was motile and rod-shaped, stained gram-positive, had an eight-layered cell envelope, and formed endospores. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA indicated that the bacterium is closely related to Clostridium xylanolyticum and is grouped with polysaccharolytic strains of clostridia. A wide range of carbohydrates were fermented, and growth was stimulated by either xylan or cellobiose as substrates. The bacterium hydrolysed and then hydrogenated the hydroxy cinnamic acids (ferulic and p-coumaric acids), which are esterified to arabinoxylan in plant cell walls. Three cytoplasmic enzymes with hydroxy cinnamic acid esterase activity were identified using non-denaturing gel electrophoresis. This bacterium possesses an unusual multilayered cell envelope in which both leaflets of the cytoplasmic membrane, the peptidoglycan layer and the S layer are clearly discernible. The fate of all these components was easily followed throughout the endospore formation process. The peptidoglycan component persisted during the entire morphogenesis. It was seen to enter the septum and to pass with the engulfing membranes to surround the prespore. It eventually expanded to form the cortex, verification for the peptidoglycan origin of the cortex. Sporogenic vesicles, which are derived from the cell wall peptidoglycan, were associated with the engulfment process. Spore coat fragments appeared early, in stage II, though spore coat formation was not complete until after cortex formation.

    Notes: Abstract  Objective: A new co-culture system of rat articular chondrocytes and synoviocytes (HIG-82; cell line) was incubated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), H2O2 or a combination of Fe2+ and ascorbic acid to simulate inflammation-like radical attacks in articular joints. Methods: Chondrocytes were characterized by immunocytochemistry against collagen type II, transmission electron (TEM) and light microscopy. Lipid peroxidation was investigated by measuring thiobarbituric-acid-reactive material in the supernatants, cytotoxicity by determining release of lactate dehydrogenase and proliferation by measuring [3H]thymidine incorporation, culture protein and DNA. Results: PMA or Fe2+ and ascorbic acid induced lipid peroxidation in chondrocytes and synoviocytes that was decreased significantly in co-cultures. PMA and H2O2 dose dependently induced release of lactate dehydrogenase in chondrocytes, which was lowered in co-cultures or in previously co-cultured chondrocytes to a nearly basal level. In contrast, conditioned media of synoviocyte cultures showed no lowering effect on the radical-induced toxicity. Protection against H2O2-induced damage of cellular membranes by co-culturing was also shown by TEM. Synoviocytes released chondrocyte-stimulating growth factors spontaneously without previous interaction. Conclusion: Chondrocytes establish protective mechanisms against reactive oxygen species via an interaction with synoviocytes. Our co-culture model presents a possible way to study mechanisms of inflammation in articular joints under defined conditions.

    Notes: Abstract  Integumental and branchial chloride cells of tilapia larvae (Oreochromis mossambicus) were studied at the light-microscopical and ultrastructural level. Total numbers and distribution of chloride cells were quantified after immunostaining of cross sections of the entire larvae with an antibody against the α-subunit of Na+/K+-ATPase. The majority (66%) of Na+/K+-ATPase-immunoreactive (ir) cells, i.e. chloride cells, of freshwater tilapia larvae were located extrabranchially up to 48 h after hatching. Five days after hatching, the majority (80%) of chloride cells were found in the buccal cavity. Transfer of 24-h-old larvae to 20% sea water speeded up this process; 24 h after transfer (i.e. 48 h after hatching), the majority (59%) of chloride cells were located in the buccal cavity. The branchial chloride cell population of 24-h- and 120-h-old larvae consisted of immature, mature, apoptotic and necrotic chloride cells. However, relatively more immature chloride cells were observed in freshwater larvae (42–63%) than in (previously studied) freshwater adults (21%), illustrating the developmental state of the gills. After transfer to sea water, the incidence of degenerative chloride cells did not change. Furthermore, the incidence of immature cells had decreased and a new subtype of chloride cells, the ”mitochondria-poor” cells, appeared more frequently. These mitochondria-poor chloride cells were characterised by an abundant tubular system and relatively few mitochondria, which were aligned at the border or concentrated in one part of the cytoplasm. Most of these cells did not contact the water. The function of their enhanced appearance after seawater transfer is unknown.

    Notes: Abstract Indirect immunocytochemical tests were used at the light- and electron-microscopic levels to investigate peripheral chemical synapses in identified sensory neurons of two types of cuticular mechanosensors in the spider Cupiennius salei Keys.: (1) in the lyriform slit-sense organ VS-3 (comprising 7–8 cuticular slits, each innervated by 2 bipolar sensory neurons) and (2) in tactile hair sensilla (each supplied with 3 bipolar sensory cells). All these neurons are mechanosensitive. Application of a monoclonal antibody against Drosophila synapsin revealed clear punctate immunofluorescence in whole-mount preparations of both mechanoreceptor types. The size and overall distribution of immunoreactive puncta suggested that these were labeled presynaptic sites. Immunofluorescent puncta were 0.5–6.8 μm long and located 0.5–6.6 μm apart from each other. They were concentrated at the initial axon segments of the sensory neurons, while the somata and the dendritic regions showed fewer puncta. Western blot analysis with the same synapsin antibody against samples of spider sensory hypodermis and against samples from the central nervous system revealed a characteristic doublet band at 72 kDa and 75 kDa, corresponding to the apparent molecular mass of synapsin in Drosophila and in mammals. Conventional transmissionelectron-microscopic staining demonstrated that numerous chemical synapses (with at least 2 vesicle types) were present at these mechanosensory neurons and their surrounding glial sheath. The distribution of these synapses corresponded to our immunofluorescence results.Ultrastructural examination of anti-synapsin-stained neurons confirmed that reaction product was associated with synaptic vesicles. We assume that the peripheral synaptic contacts originate from efferents that could exert a complex modulatory influence on mechanosensory activity.

    Notes: Abstract  The present report focuses on the mechanism(s) involved in the steroid-induced decrease of androgen production in immature African catfish testes that was observed in previous studies. Juvenile animals were implanted with Silastic pellets containing different 11-oxygenated androgens (11-ketotestosterone, KT; 11β- hydroxyandrostenedione, OHA; 11-ketoandrostenedione, KA), testosterone (T) or estradiol-17β (E2). Control groups received steroid-free pellets. Two weeks later, testis tissue fragments were either incubated with increasing concentrations of catfish luteinizing hormone (LH), or incubated with [3H]-pregnenolone ([3H]-P5) or [3H]-androstenedione ([3H]-A). Tissue fragments were also prepared for the quantitative assessment of Leydig cell morphology. Most of the parameters studied were not affected significantly by implantation of E2. Implantation of all androgens inhibited both the basal and the LH-stimulated androgen secretory capacity in vitro. This was associated with a reduced size of the Leydig cells and loss of half of their mitochondria. The studies on the metabolism of tritiated steroid hormones indicated that steroidogenic steps prior to 11β-hydroxylation, probably C17–20 lyase activity, were affected by all androgens. Although the effects of 11-oxygenated androgens and T on Leydig cells were mostly similar, previous work showed that only the 11-oxygenated androgens stimulated spermatogenesis, suggesting that distinct mechanisms of action are used by 11-oxygenated androgens and T. These mechanisms, however, seem to merge on the same target(s) to impair Leydig cell androgen production. Such a negative feedback mechanism may be of relevance in the context of the decline in androgen secretion per milligram testis tissue that accompanies the first wave of spermatogenesis in pubertal African catfish.

    Notes: Abstract The distribution and ultrastructure of class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-positive cells were investigated in human dental pulp, employing immunohistochemistry using an anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR-monoclonal antibody. HLA-DR-immunopositive cells, appearing spindle-like or dendritic in profile, were densely distributed throughout the dental pulp. Under the electron microscope, these cells exhibited various sizes of vesicles containing clear or opaque contents, multivesicular bodies and characteristic fine tubulovesicular structures in their cytoplasm. Some reactive cells possessed coated pits and vesicles including electron-dense materials, indicating an active endocytosis. At the periphery of the pulp tissue, the HLA-DR-immunopositive cells were predominantly situated in the subodontoblastic layer, with some located in the odontoblast layer and/or predentin and extending their cytoplasmic processes into the dentinal tubules. Cell processes of these cells occasionally made contact with several odontoblast processes in the same way as the nerve fibers in the predentin. These cells never contained the typical phagosomes frequently observed in the HLA-DR-immunoreactive macrophages in the subodontoblastic layer and the pulp core. The results suggest that the HLA-DR-immunopositive cells in the odontoblast layer and/or predentin have some regulatory function on the odontoblasts under physiological conditions, in addition to their involvement in the initial defense reaction after tooth injury.

    Notes: Abstract Histochemical examination of 1-μm tissue sections from the dorsal nerve plexus of the earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris, reveals multiple brown intraneuronal granules. These granules contain material morphologically and histochemically consistent with neuromelanin. When viewed with transmission electron microscopy, these were seen as single membrane-enclosed biphasic granules with diameters of 370–730 nm. Exposure of L. terrestris to high-level environmental oxygen resulted in an increase in the number of neuromelanin-like pigment granules within the neurons of the circular muscle layer. As measured by ortho-phenylenediamine hydrochloride, the endogenous peroxidase activity of extracts from worms incubated in high-level environmental oxygen was 51% more than controls. The endogenous peroxidase activity was localized in situ with 3,3-diaminobenzidine (DAB) and was found to increase in and around the neuromelanin-like pigment-containing neurons within the circular muscle layer. These studies suggest that the nerve net of L. terrestris may serve as a model to study the role of neuromelanin production in oxidative stress and its relationship to endogenous peroxidases.

    Notes: Abstract  Hypothalamic slices containing the lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) were prepared from 6- to 8-day-old rats and maintained in stationary culture for up to 35 days in order to analyse how well the melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) neurons survived. As previously reported for other brain areas, this method yielded a long-term well-preserved organotypic organization. Light- and electron-microscopic investigations showed that differentiation continued and that synaptic contacts developed in vitro. After a period of elimination of damaged cells and fibres, most of the remaining neurons and glial cells retained a normal morphology throughout the culture period. MCH neurons, in particular, survived well as attested by the strong immunocytochemical and in situ hybridization signals still observed after several weeks. In a comparison with the day of explantation, competitive reverse transcription/polymerase chain reaction demonstrated the remarkable stability of the level of MCH mRNA at least until the 20th day in culture; after 30 days, the clear decrease in this level seemed to be correlated with a loss of MCH neurons, rather than with a decrease in MCH expression. After 10 days of culture, the incubation of slices in the presence of the hormone leptin (50 ng/ml) resulted in a strong decrease of MCH gene expression, suggesting that MCH neurons retained their physiological properties. Thus, the LHA slice stationary culture, especially between one and three weeks (i.e. after tissue stabilization and before extensive cell loss), appears to be a suitable method for physiological and pharmacological studies of these neurons.

    Notes: Abstract The histamine-storing ECL cells in the stomach play a key role in the control of acid secretion. They contain granules, secretory vesicles and microvesicles, and sustained gastrin stimulation results in the additional formation of vacuoles and lipofuscin bodies. The cells are rich in the vesicle monoamine transporter type-2 (VMAT-2), which can be inhibited by reserpine. The present study examines the effect of reserpine on ECL-cell ultrastructure and histamine compartmentalization. Rats received reserpine and/or gastrin. Reserpine was given twice by the intraperitoneal route (25 mg/kg once daily). Gastrin-17 was given by subcutaneous infusion (5 nmol/kg/h), starting at the time of the first reserpine injection and continuing for 4 days when the rats were killed. At this stage, histamine in the oxyntic mucosa was unaffected by reserpine but elevated by gastrin. Immunocytochemical analysis (confocal microscopy) showed ECL-cell histamine in control and gastrin-treated rats to be localized in cytoplasmic organelles (e.g., secretory vesicles). After treatment with reserpine alone or reserpine+gastrin, ECL-cell histamine occurred mainly in the cytosol. Planimetric analysis (electron microscopy) of ECL cells showed reserpine to increase the number, size and volume density of the granules and to reduce the size and volume density of the secretory vesicles. Gastrin reduced the number and volume density of granules and secretory vesicles, increased the number and volume density of microvesicles and caused vacuoles and lipofuscin bodies to appear. Reserpine+gastrin increased the number, volume density and size of the granules. Reserpine prevented the effects of gastrin on secretory vesicles, vacuoles and microvesicles, but did not prevent the development of lipofuscin. Our findings are in line with the views: (1) that preformed cytosolic histamine is taken up by granules/secretory vesicles via VMAT-2, that histamine is instrumental in the transformation of granules into secretory vesicles and in their consequent enlargement and (2) that vacuoles are formed by the fusion of large secretory vesicles.

    Notes: Summary The fine structure of the human cumulus oophorus has been reviewed on the basis of scanning and transmission electron microscopic observations as well as of immunofluorescence data. Tissues sampled from preovulatory ovarian follicles and cumulus-enclosed oocytes and fertilized eggs (collected from the oviduct or obtained during in vitro fertilization procedures) have been evaluated from a microtopographic and morphodynamic point of view in order to better clarify the possible role of this population of cells. In particular, the following aspects have been studied and discussed: the presence of multiple close contacts (modulated by the interposition of the zona pellucida) between the oocyte surface and the long microvillous evaginations projecting from the inner aspect of corona cells surface (through these structures the intraovarian cumulus oophorus may control oocyte growth and metabolism up until the time of ovulation); the occurrence of different subpopulations of cells (steroid-synthetic cells, cells producing adhesive proteins, leukocytes, macrophages) in the postovulatory, extraovarian cumulus oophorus surrounding oocytes, zygotes and early developing embryos. All these elements found in the cumulus mass may positively act, through their paracrine activities, on the chemical composition of the microenvironment in which fertilization occurs.

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary InMagnolia ×soulangeana pollen grains the generative cell (GC) does not become totally free within the vegetative cell (VC), at least until the pollen tube emergence. Due to a deviation in its detachment process from the sporoderm, the opposing ends of the VC plasmalemma do not fuse themselves when the GC moves away from the intine. Consequently, the interplasmalemmic space surrounding the GC does not become isolated but rather maintains continuity with the sporoderm through a complex formation that we have called plasmalemmic cord. The real existence of this formation was confirmed through serial sectioning showing the plasmalemmic cord to consist of the VC plasmalemma. In its initial portion it is occupied by a reasonably accentuated wall ingrowth of the inner layer of the intine (intine 3). In the remainder portion, neither of the cytochemical tests used in this work have revealed the presence of a significant amount of wall material. However, ultrathin sections of samples processed either chemically or by cryofixation showed the existence of an intricate system of tubules and vesicles, some of which are evaginations of the VC plasmalemma. The hypothesis that the plasmalemmic cord may have a role in the complex interactions between the two pollen cells is discussed.

    Notes: Summary The floral nectary ofPisum sativum L. is situated on the receptacle at the base of the gynoecium. The gland receives phloem alone which departed the vascular bundles supplying the staminal column. Throughout the nectary, only the companion cells of the phloem exhibited wall ingrowths typical of transfer cells. Modified stomata on the nectary surface served as exits for nectar, but stomatal pores developed well before the commencement of secretion. Furthermore, stomatal pores on the nectary usually closed by occlusion, not by guard-cell movements. Pore occlusion was detected most frequently in post-secretory and secretory glands, and less commonly in pre-secretory nectaries. A quantitative stereological study revealed few changes in nectary fine structure between buds, flowers secreting nectar, and post-secretory flowers. Dissolution of abundant starch grains in plastids of subepidermal secretory cells when secretion commenced suggests that starch is a precursor of nectar carbohydrate production. Throughout nectary development, mitochondria were consistently the most plentiful organelle in both epidermal and subepidermal cells, and in addition to the relative paucity of dictyosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, and their associated vesicles, the evidence suggests that floral nectar secretion inP. sativum is an energy-requiring (eccrine) process, rather that granulocrine.

    Notes: Summary All anoplurans live symbiotically with prokaryotic microorganisms hosted in specialized cells, termed mycetocytes. In nymphs and males mycetocytes are distributed between midgut epithelial cells. In females, besides the midgut, mycetocytes are found in the reproductive organs where they are located at the base of ovarioles in contact with lateral oviducts. The mycetocyte-associated symbionts are transmitted from one generation to the next transovarially. Here, the results of histological and ultrastructural studies on the distribution and transmission of symbiotic microorganisms within the ovaries of the anopluranHaematopinus suis are presented. Interestingly, during advanced oogenesis (i.e., choriogenesis) of this species all symbionts are localized extracellularly and form a tight mass located at the posterior pole of the oocyte just below the hydropyle. In insects studied so far, such localization of transovarially transmitted microorganisms has been reported only in the closely related speciesHaematopinus eurysternus.

    Notes: Abstract We investigated function and ultrastructure of sciatic nerves isolated from wood frogs (Rana sylvatica) endemic to the Northwest Territories, Canada, following freezing at −2.5 °C, −5.0 °C, or −7.5 °C. All frogs frozen at −2.5 °C, and most frogs (71%) frozen at −5.0 °C, recovered within 14 h after thawing began; however, frogs did not survive exposure to −7.5 °C. Sciatic nerves isolated from frogs frozen at −7.5 °C were refractory to electrical stimulation, whereas those obtained from frogs surviving exposure to −2.5 °C or −5.0 °C generally exhibited normal characteristics of compound action potentials. Frogs responded to freezing by mobilizing hepatic glycogen reserves to synthesize the cryoprotectant glucose, which increased 20-fold in the liver and 40-fold in the blood. Ultrastructural analyses of nerves harvested from frogs in each treatment group revealed that freezing at −2.5 °C or −5.0 °C had little or no effect on tissue and cellular organization, but that (lethal) exposure to −7.5 °C resulted in marked shrinkage of the axon, degeneration of mitochondria within the axoplasm, and extensive delamination of myelin sheaths of the surrounding Schwann cells.

    Notes: Abstract The efficacy of praziquantel against the metacestode of Echinococcus granulosus was studied by means of in vitro incubations or in vivo experiments. The results of in vitro incubations indicated that the effectiveness of praziquantel was higher when the parasite material comprised cysts from cyst masses than in the case of intact cysts that retained their adventitial layer. Ultrastructural alterations in the germinal layer of collapsed cysts incubated in vitro were detected. The results obtained in mice after 4 months of treatment demonstrated no significant difference between the control and treated groups with regard to the number and wet weight of developed cysts. However, ultrastructural alterations were detected in the cyst tissue that were similar to those described in the in vitro experiment. In contrast, the effect of chemoprophylaxis on the number and the wet weight of developed cysts was extremely significant as compared with the control value, the efficacy being 99.41% and 98.32%, respectively. Moreover, ultrastructural observations of the cyst tissue revealed loss of its integrity, and no intact cyton was observed in the germinal layer of the developed cyst.

    Notes: Abstract The anterior adhesive areas of Benedenia rohdei from the gills and B. lutjani from the pelvic fins of Lutjanuscarponotatus at Heron Island, Australia, were studied using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. All specimens were fixed when detached from host tissue. Both monogenean species have two disc-like anteroventral attachment organs, each of which has an anterolateral adhesive area divided into three adjacent zones by tegument from the ventral surface of the attachment organ. A rod-shaped secretion and a smaller, roughly spherical secretion are associated with the anterior adhesive areas in both species; a third type of secretion occurs anteriorly but outside these adhesive areas. The electron-dense spherical secretory bodies released onto the anterior adhesive zones in these Benedenia spp. are of a single type and differ ultrastructurally from those previously reported in monogeneans living on teleost hosts. A correlation, therefore, between secretion morphology and host type is not supported. No relationship was found between parasite microhabitat and secretion morphology.

    Notes: Abstract An in vivo model has been developed for chronic observation of the effects of ischemia on cortical bone remodeling and perfused vascularity. Diaphragm occluders were implanted around the right common iliac artery of four rabbits and inflated to produce 10 h of ischemia to the limb. Microcirculation was monitored with intravital microscopy of injected fluorescent microspheres and FITC-Dextran 70 through a bone window, the tibial bone chamber implant (BCI). Bone resorption and apposition in the BCI were indicated with mineralization dyes. Between 2 and 12 h following release of the occluder, secondary ischemia/no-reflow and other evidence of reperfusion injury were observed. Vessel damage was suggested by abnormally high leakage of FITC-D70 from the few vessels perfused during secondary ischemia. In the weeks following occluder release perfused vasculature increased beyond pre-occlusion levels. Net bone resorption reached a maximum when vascularity passed normal levels. In order to further validate the arterial occlusion model for osteonecrosis, techniques for (1) confirming bone death and (2) detecting increased leukocyte adherence to endothelial cells were added. The dead cell stain Ethidium homodimer-1 was used to tag dead osteocytes immediately after occlusion and produced a measure designated “osteonecrosis index.” To detect leukocytes adhering to vessel walls, carboxyfluorescein diacetate, succinimidyl ester was injected at occluder release. An increase in the number of adherent leukocytes was detected. © 1999 Biomedical Engineering Society. PAC99: 8764Rr, 8717-d, 8719Tt

    Notes: -9,10-Didehydroanthracene (1) is an interesting derivative of p-benzyne that has been subject of several studies. In contrast to an earlier report, the photochemical decarbonylation of 9,10-dicarbonyl-9,10-dihydroanthracene (2) does not lead to 1 but rather to the ring-opened ene-diyne 4. The key intermediate for this reaction is keto carbene 7 which is formed by monodecarbonylation of 2. Carbene 7 is labile towards visible-light irradiation and easily looses the second CO molecule to give 4. Carbene 7 and diyne 4 are characterized by IR and UV/Vis spectra, the IR spectra are compared to calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory.

    Notes: -Commonly observed, but rarely explored, is the possibility of modifying the diastereomeric excess (de%) by means of temperature. A complete reversal in the diastereofacial selectivity could be obtained whenever the diastereoisomers concerned are differentially favored by enthalpy and entropy. The enthalpic or entropic dominance of a diastereoisomer depends greatly on the reaction solvent used.

    Notes: -O-Alkylation of cyclic thiohydroxamic acids 1 and 3-5 has been studied with a view to developing an efficient method for the synthesis of N-(alkoxy)pyridine-2(1H)-thiones and N-(alkoxy)thiazole-2(3H)-thiones. Four issues have been addressed and the following conclusions can be drawn: (i) Thiones 1 and 5 exist as O-H acids in the solid state. (ii) According to NMR investigations (1H, 13C), the thione structures should be largely retained in CDCl3, [D6]DMSO, and CD3OD solutions of acids 1, 3-5, as is also the case for pyridinethione salts 2a-h. (iii) O-Alkylation of pyridinethione salts occurs in competition with S-alkylation. Selective O-alkylation is however possible, if thiohydroxamate salts with large countercations, such as M = NBu4, are treated with hard alkylating reagents in polar aprotic media. (iv) As tetrabutylammonium thiohydroxamates, such as 2f, are highly useful in the synthesis of cyclic thiohydroxamic acid O-esters, we have developed an efficient protocol for the preparation of N-(alkoxy)pyridine-2(1H)-thiones directly from acid 1 using phase-transfer conditions (alkyl halide or sulfonic acid ester, CH3CN, K2CO3, Bu4NHSO4). This method has proved particularly successful for the synthesis of N-(alkoxy)thiazole-2(3H)-thiones 11, 20-28, which were obtained in yields of up to 87%.

The use of (S)-MeOBIPHEP as the chiral ligand and N,N-bis(p-tolylsulfonyl)-o-phenylenediamine (1i) as the nucleophile led to the highest ee at 25 °C, regardless of the solvent used. The enantioselectivity of the cyclization is strongly affected by the nature of the substituents at the nitrogen atom.

    Notes: -As part of an ongoing project concerning the synthesis of enantiomerically pure α-hydroxy β-amino acids, we have now developed a general strategy allowing the synthesis of anti-α-alkyl α-hydroxy β-amino acids. Our procedure involves the intermediate formation of trans-oxazolines, which are alkylated at C-5 with good to high diastereoselectivity and then hydrolysed under mildly acidic conditions, affording in quantitative yield the corresponding hydroxy amides. The starting (R)-3-amino-3-phenylpropanoic acid and (S)-3-aminobutanoic acid were obtained in enantiomerically pure form by selective enzymatic hydrolysis of the corresponding phenylacetylamides with penicillin G acylase.

    Notes: -The effect of donor substitution by the hydroxy group and of acceptor substitution by the cyano group on the activation energies of the vinylcyclopropane-cyclopentene rearrangement was calculated by the spin-restricted RB3LYP/6-31G* method for reactant structures and by the spin-unrestricted UB3LYP/6-31G* method for transition structures. The activation energies of the rearrangement of hydroxy- and cyano-substituted vinylcyclopropanes are very similar for substitution in the same position. In agreement with earlier findings the substituent effects on the activation energies are closely connected with the radical stabilizing properties of the substituents. As indicated by singlet/triplet splitting energies, the transition structures are essentially biradicaloid. In spite of spin pairing in the transition structure the substituent effects on bond lengths and on stabilization energies are very similar to those of the free radicals corresponding to the two radical substructures. Thus, the transition structures may be considered, in good approximation, as structures consisting of two weakly interacting radicals.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under -http://www.wileY-Vch.de/contents/jc_2046/1999/98349_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: -The direct cyclization of 2-amino-4-chloro-3,3-dimethylbutanenitrile with potassium tert-butoxide in THF afforded 1-amino-2,2-dimethylcyclopropane-1-carbonitrile and a dimerization product. Various new cis- and trans-1-(tert-butylamino)-2-benzyl-2-methylcyclopropane-carbonitriles and© the corresponding cyclopropanecarboxamides have been synthesized, with focus on the isolation of the pure stereoisomeric cyclopropanecarboxamides. The relative configuration of the stereoisomers was established by X-ray crystallographic analysis of one of the model compounds. A new route to the latter functionalized cyclopropanes was developed by reaction of 1-methoxycyclopropylamines with potassium cyanide. Some remarkable rearrangements of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carbonitriles into azetidine and oxazine derivatives via Favorskii-derived intermediates are reported. Various aspects of the chemistry of geminally functionalized cyclopropanes are discussed.

    Notes: -Enyne acetates 2, 4, 6, and 8, as well as enyne oxiranes 10, with different substitution patterns react with organocuprates regioselectively under 1,5-(SN2′′)-substitution to provide vinylallenes 11 and 12. With lithium dimethylcuprate, reduced vinylallenes originating from a (formal) transfer of a hydride ion to the substrate are formed in some cases. The products are usually obtained as mixtures of (E/Z)isomers; however, pure (E)-vinylallenes are formed occasionally. The 1,5-substitutions can also be carried out with catalytic amounts of copper reagents. The reaction of chiral enyne acetate (S)-2a with tBu2CuLi · LiCN proceeds enantioselectively, so that this transformation constitutes a new case of remote stereocontrol.

    Notes: -Racemic and enantiopure 2-tert-butyltetrahydropyrimidinones (from pivalaldehyde and 3-aminocarboxylic acids) are converted to Alloc-, Boc-, and Z-protected cyclic imino esters (7-10, Schemes 2-4). These are deprotonated to Li enaminates (K, L). Reactions with electrophiles (prim., sec. alkyl, allyl, benzyl, propargyl halides, aldehydes, imines, enoates) give good yields and are highly diastereoselective (products 11-42, Schemes 5-10). A two-step cleavage (removal of protecting group and hydrolysis) under very mild conditions converts the heterocyclic products to α-branched β-amino acid methyl esters (43-61, Schemes 11-13). The structure of the products is determined by NMR spectroscopy (Figure 1), by chemical correlation (Scheme 14), and by X-ray analysis (Figure 2, 3, 7, Table 1). A structure of the Li enaminates is proposed (Figure 4). Mechanistic models are derived for the reactions occurring with formation of two stereogenic centers with relative topicity like (Figures 5, 6).

    Notes: -The solid-phase synthesis and characterization of a series of peptides (3-9), containing reverse-turn mimetic bicyclic lactams (1a, 1b), was reported in the preceding paper. The bicyclic lactams (1a, 1b) possess high structural similarity to the two central residues of a β-turn. The conformational preferences of the constrained peptides have been investigated by NMR spectroscopy and IR spectroscopy. Our experimental results have been complemented by computer modelling studies and show that the constrained peptides (3-9) form an inverse γ-turn or a type-II′ β-turn through intramolecular hydrogen bonding, depending on the nature of the reverse-turn mimic. In N-acetylated tetrapeptide mimics incorporating the two different bicyclic lactams (a series and b series), H5 is available for either a γ-turn (7-membered ring with the carbonyl group of the bicyclic lactam) or a β-turn (10-membered ring with the carbonyl group of residue 2), as shown in Figures 7 and 9. The a series incorporating the (5,7)-bicyclic lactam predominantly induces the γ-turn conformation, while the b series incorporating the (5,6)-bicyclic lactam can promote either a γ-turn or a β-turn conformation, with the β-turn usually being preferred and with varying degrees of β-hairpin formation.

    Notes: -A practical route is described for the synthesis of enantiopure β- and γ-amino alcohols with two stereocenters, starting from homochiral α- (1 and 5) and β- (13 and 16) -aminoacylsilanes, and involving stereoselective addition of allylmetal compounds and subsequent stereospecific protiodesilylation of the adducts. The degree of diastereoselectivity achieved in the nucleophilic addition step depends on both the nitrogen-protecting group and the reagents used. Diastereomeric excess (de) values equal to or higher than 98% were obtained in the TiCl4-promoted allylation of the N-Pht-aminoacylsilanes 1 and 13 and of the N-Ts-aminoacylsilane 5 with allyltrimethylsilane. Lower de values were obtained in the Sc(OTf)3-catalyzed allylation of 5 with tetraallyltin and in the additions of both allyltrimethylsilane and tetraallyltin to the N-Ts-β-aminoacylsilane 16. Protiodesilylation of the adducts, leading to the β- and γ-amino alcohols, was accomplished with TBAF, except in the case of the adducts obtained from 5. For these, a preliminary removal of the tosyl group was necessary, which was accomplished with simultaneous desilylation by treatment with Na in liquid ammonia.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under -http://www.wileY-Vch.de/contents/jc_2046/1999/98342_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: -Irradiation of a series of 5-(2-methoxyphenyl)pent-1-enes substituted with a hydroxy or trimethylsilyloxy group at the α-, β-, or γ-position of the side-chain yields in all cases meta photocycloadducts, in which the configuration at the substituted carbon atom is mainly endo. This indicates that the diastereoselectivity originates from minimization of steric interactions between the side-chain substituent and the ortho-methoxy group at the arene unit. Hydrogen bonding does not seem to be involved. The introduction of the side-chain substituents also influences the regioselectivity of the addition: The linear to angular adduct ratios are significantly increased compared to the case of the parent compound.

    Notes: -Oligonucleotides containing 5-aza-7-deaza-2′-deoxyguanosine (1) were synthesized. Solid-phase synthesis was performed with the phosphonate 15 or the phosphoramidite 5. The amino-unprotected phosphonate 4 was also employed. Hybridization studies of oligonucleotides containing 1 resulted in new base pairs leading to duplexes with parallel (ps) or antiparallel (aps) chain orientation. Among those with parallel chains a stable “purine-purine” base pair was observed between 5-aza-7-deazaguanine and guanine or 7-deazaguanine. Antiparallel stranded duplexes are formed when 5-aza-7-deazaguanine pairs with cytosine. This base pair has only two hydrogen bonds under neutral conditions but is stabilized by a third one in acidic medium. A new base pair is also detected between the base of 1 and isoguanine (neutral medium).

    Notes: -Arylboron compounds, ArnB(OH)3-n (n = 1-3), bearing electron-withdrawing aromatic groups such as triarylboranes, diarylborinic acids, and arylboronic acids represent a new class of air-stable and water-tolerant Lewis acid or Brønsted acid catalysts in organic synthesis. In particular, while tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane has primarily been used as a co-catalyst in metallocene-mediated olefin polymerization, its potential as a Lewis acid catalyst for organic transformation is now much more extensive. Diarylborinic acids and arylboronic acids have shown themselves to be powerful tools in the design of chiral boron catalysts. This article provides a comprehensive summary of the organic transformations catalyzed by arylboron compounds as acids.

    Notes: -The computer program COCON is introduced as a tool for the comprehensive structure elucidation of unknown organic compounds. In particular, structural proposals made on the basis of the molecular formula and of 2D-NMR experiments can be analyzed for the existence of alternative constitutions being in agreement with the same data set. The computational speed grounds on the evaluation of ambiguous long-range connectivity information during the process of structure generation. The data set experimentally obtained for the marine natural product oroidin (1) was selected, because proton-poor compounds usually cause uncertainties in NMR-based structure determinations. The calculation results encourage to move from the experience-based analysis of NMR chemical shifts or of MS fragmentations to the automated evaluation of routinely available connectivity information.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under -http://www.wileY-Vch.de/contents/jc_2046/1999/98241_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: -The first synthesis of a 1,2,4-oxadiphosphole 6 has been achieved by vacuum thermolysis of mesitylphosphaalkene 5. The novel heterocycle 6 exhibits an enormous potential for cycloaddition reactions, which predominantly proceed selectively at low temperatures. Compound 6 undergoes addition with two equivalents of phosphaalkynes 10 by a [4+2] cycloaddition/homo Diels-Alder reaction sequence to form novel oxatetraphosphadeltacyclenes 12 and 13. Tetrachloro-o-benzoquinone (14) undergoes a selective [4+1] cycloaddition with 12 and 13 leading to the spirocyclic products 15 and 16 containing λ5-phosphorus atoms. Treatment of the oxadiphosphole 6 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (17) provides the first access to a 1,2-oxaphosphole 18, which is formed after an initial [4+2] cycloaddition followed by a retro Diels-Alder reaction. An unexpected reaction of 6 is observed with tri-tert-butylazete (20) furnishing a new polycyclic system (→ 21).

Remarkably, the bis- and trisaziridine were obtained in a reaction sequence that consists of only two steps, using technically pure methyl esters of epoxidized sunflower and linseed oil. The conversion of methyl 9,10;12,13-diepoxyoctadecanoate (1), with sodium azide and ammonium chloride in ethanol in the presence of water, yielded the new diazidodihydroxy compound methyl 9(10),12(13)-diazido-10(9),13(12)-dihydroxyoctadecanoate (2) in the first step. 2 was obtained as a regioisomeric mixture. The reaction of 2 with triphenylphosphane led to the bisaziridine 3. The analogous conversion of methyl 9,10;12,13;15,16-triepoxyoctadecanoate (4), via the new triazidotrihydroxy compound methyl 9(10),12(13),15(16)-triazido-10(9),13(12),16(15)-trihydroxyoctadecanoate (5), afforded trisaziridine 6.

    Notes: -Cavitands with phosphane sulfide moieties 4 and 8a,b were prepared in good yields from their phosphane oxide analogues, as more stable alternatives for the dithiophosphinic acids used at present. The cavitands 7a and 7b with flexible butoxyphosphane oxide ligating sites are more efficient than cavitand 3 having rigid methylphosphane oxide groups as was studied with EuIII picrate extractions. Due to the absence of an ionic functionality in the phosphane sulfides 4 and 8a,b AmIII and EuIII are not extracted, not even in the presence of synergents (e.g. TBP, TOPO, HDNNS). Cavitand 10 with phosphinic acid groups efficiently extracts EuIII in 1:1 or 2:1 complexes, depending on the metal-to-ligand concentration ratio (extraction constants Kex1 = 3.9·10-5M2 and Kex2 = 1.9·102M, respectively). Furthermore, in the case of 10 EuIII is preferentially extracted over AmIII with a separation factor SEu/Am up to 5.

    Notes: -In the present review, we report the discovery of the formation of esters and lactones by oxidation of ketones with a peroxide derivative, namely the Baeyer-Villiger reaction. This reaction was first reported by Adolf von Baeyer and Victor Villiger a century ago in 1899, just one year after the oxidant they used (KHSO5) has been described. Furthermore, Baeyer and Villiger established the composition of this new inorganic peroxide and showed that its instability was the reason of a controversy between several European chemists between 1878 and 1893. For the first 50 years the mechanism of the Baeyer-Villiger reaction was a matter of debate. A side product, 1,2,4,5-tetraoxocyclohexane, was ruled out as an intermediate in the ester formation by Dilthey. Criegee postulated a nucleophilic attack of the oxidant on the carbonyl group. This mechanism was confirmed by von E. Doering by a labeling experiment with [18O]benzophenone. The rearrangement step occurs with retention of the stereochemistry at the migrating center. The competitive migration and the rate-determining step are also discussed in this review.

    Notes: -The aim of this paper is to test the ability of a β-glycosidase from Thermus thermophilus to catalyse transglycosylation reactions in the presence of nitrophenyl glycosides as donors and other monosaccharides as acceptors. Our results show that this enzyme is able to induce such reactions either with nitrophenylgalactosides, -glucosides and -fucosides. With the two former donors, the autocondensation of the donor, which thus acts also as an acceptor, is faster than the transglycosylation with other acceptors. Furthermore, as the regioselectivity of the reactions is mainly of the β-[1→3] type, good yields are obtained for the synthesis of 2-nitrophenyl-β-D-galactopyranosyl-[1→3]-β-D-galactopyranoside and 2-nitrophenyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl-[1→3]-β-D-glucopyranoside. Conversely, in the presence of p-nitrophenylfucoside, the autocondensation is very limited, and with methyl-α-D-galactoside as an acceptor, the regioselectivity is mainly of the β-[1→6]-type resulting in the synthesis of methyl-β-D-fucopyranosyl-[1→6]-α-D-galactopyranoside.

    Notes: -The reactivity of red phosphorus towards aldehydes was investigated under basic and acidic media. It was demonstrated that the real phosphorylating agent involved in the reaction was phosphane (PH3) in basic media, and hypophosphorous acid (H3PO2) in acidic media. A convenient one-pot synthesis of (α-hydroxyalkyl)phosphinic acids from red phosphorus and aldehydes in basic media was realized under sonication. The same reaction under acidic media in the presence of hydriodic acid led to the corresponding phosphonic acids. The (α-hydroxyalkyl)phosphinic acids were readily prepared under sonication from hypophosphorous acid and aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amounts of hydrochloric acid. The mechanism of the addition reaction of PH3 to benzaldehyde was elucidated and shows the complexity of the reaction as a function of the experimental conditions.

    Notes: -The photochemistry of 4-methyl-9,10-diazoanthrone (7a) and 1,4-dimethyl-9,10-diazoanthrone (7b) was investigated in argon matrices at 10 K. Visible-light irradiation results in the formation of the anthronylidenes 5a and b, respectively, which were identified by oxygen trapping, by comparison of the IR and UV/Vis spectra with that of the parent anthronylidene 6, and by comparison of the IR spectrum with that calculated by DFT methods. The carbenes 5 are thermally stable under the conditions of matrix isolation; however, irradiation with visible or UV light results in the rearrangement to the quinone methides 10a and b.

    Notes: -Phosphaalkynes 2 and electron-deficient alkynes 11 readily react in a [4 + 2] cycloaddition process with 5,8-bis(trimethylsilyl)cycloocta-1,3,6-triene (8) in its bicyclic form 10 to furnish regioselectively the tricyclodecadienes 12 and 13, respectively. The phosphorus-containing compounds 12 exhibit structural features which make them suitable for homo-Diels-Alder reactions with electron-deficient acetylenes. A single crystal structure analysis of the homo-Diels-Alder adduct 14b confirmed the structure and relative configuration of the phophatricyclodecadienes 12. In solution the tricyclodecadienes 13 are prone to facile cycloreversion yielding the phthalic esters 15 and the cyclobutene 16. The latter is rapidly converted into the corresponding 1,3-butadiene 18, which can be trapped in a Diels-Alder/phospha-ene/Diels-Alder tandem reaction sequence by phosphaalkyne 2a. The phosphatricyclodecadiene 12 is thermally more stable; loss of cyclobutene 16 only occurs under FVP conditions to afford the λ3-phosphinine 22.

    Notes: -The totally regio- and stereoselective P-O-to-P-C rearrangement in the synthesis of various chiral P-(o-hydroxyaryl)diazaphospholidine P-oxides has been investigated. This reaction proceeds with excellent yields ranging from 72 to 92%, total retention of configuration at the phosphorus atom, and complete regioselectivity. An exception was found with naphthyl derivatives, which gave mixtures of two regioisomers. In all cases, the products generated have been unambiguously characterized by 1H-, 13C-, and 31P-NMR spectroscopy as well as by X-ray-diffraction analysis.

    Notes: -The sulfur-linked pentathiohexasaccharide 3I,3IV-di-β-D-glucopyranosylthiogentiotetraose (12) has been prepared by a convergent approach involving the reaction of 1,2,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-deoxy-6-iodo-3-S-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-3-thio-β-D-glucopyranose (10) with the sodium salt of 2,3,4-tri-O-acetyl-6-S-[2,4-di-O-acetyl-3,6-di-S-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-3,6-dithio-β-D-glucopyranosyl]-1,6-dithio-β-D-glucopyranose (4). A further reaction, involving the sodium salt of the peracetylated β-1-thio derivative of 12 with 1,2,3,4-tetra-O-acetyl-6-deoxy-6-iodo-β-D-glucopyranose (26), afforded the homologous sulfur-linked hexathioheptasaccharide 3II,3V-di-β-D-glucopyranosylthiogentiopentaose (28). Related sulfur-linked positional isomers 3II,3IV-di-D-β-glucopyranosylthiogentiotetraose (34) and 3III,3V-di-β-D-glucopyranosylthiogentiopentaose (39) have been prepared using analogous synthetic strategies. Thus, SN2 displacement of the iodine atom in 10 by the sodium salt of 2,4-di-O-acetyl-3,6-di-S-(2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-1,3,6-trithio-β-D-glucopyranose afforded a tetrathiopentasaccharide, which resulted in the pentathiohexasaccharide 34 by a sequence of reactions involving the 1-thioglycose 32 in reaction with 26. The hexathioheptasaccharide 39 was obtained conveniently by the reaction of 26 with the acetylated 1-thio-6I, 3II, 6II, 3IV, 6IV-pentathio derivative 37, followed by deacylation. The four isomeric pentathiohexa- and hexathioheptasaccharides 12,34 and 28,39, respectively, were all found to be active in eliciting phytoalexin accumulation in soybean cotyledon tissue and in binding to a glucan-binding protein of soybean, although to a lesser extent than the corresponding O-oligosaccharides, the alternate thiohexa- and thioheptasaccharides 12,28 being more active as compared to the geminally branched isomers 34,39.

    Notes: -Flash vacuum thermolysis (FVT, 1000 °C ≥ T ≥ 1200 °C) of acenaphtho[1,2-a]acenaphthylene (3, C22H12) gave the C22H12 cyclopenta-fused polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (CP-PAH) acenaphtho[1,2-e]acenaphthylene (4), cyclopenta[cd]perylene (5) and cyclopenta[def]benzo[hi]chrysene (6). Whereas the formation of 4 is explained by a ring contraction/ring expansion rearrangement of 3, the identification of 5 and 6 suggests that 3 also undergoes homolytic scission of a five-membered ring's Carbon-Carbon single bond furnishing the transient diradical intermediate 7. Ring closure of 7to form 8 after rotation around the Carbon-Carbon single bond of the intact five-membered ring followed by hydrogen shifts will give 6. The latter can rearrange subsequently into 5by ring contraction/ring expansion. The structural assignment of 4 and 5 was supported by independent FVT of 6,12-bis(1-chloroethenyl)chrysene (14) and 3-(1-chloroethenyl)perylene (23), respectively. FVT of 14 (900-1200 °C) gave in a consecutive process 6,12-bis(ethynyl)chrysene (15), 9-ethynylbenz[j]acephenanthrylene (16) and bis(cyclopenta[hi,qr])chrysene (17). Although at T ≥ 900 °C 17 selectively rearranges into 4 by ring contraction/ring expansion, at 1200 °C the latter is converted into 5 presumably via a diradical intermediate obtained by homolytic scission of a single Carbon-Carbon bond of a five-membered ring. FVT of 23 gave in situ 3-ethynylperylene (25), which at 1000 °C is nearly quantitatively converted into 5. The propensity of internal cyclopenta moieties to undergo homolytic scission of a five-membered ring′s Carbon-Carbon single bond was corroborated by independent FVT of benzo[k]- (11) and benzo[j]fluoranthene (12). Previously unknown thermal pathways to important (CP)-PAH combustion effluents are disclosed at T ≥ 1000 °C.

    Notes: -Here we report on the possibility of using rotaxane wheels as noncovalent protecting groups which significantly decrease the activity of functional groups in the central part of the axle. The amide-linked rotaxanes 5aand 5b, each containing a C=C double bond in their axle, have been synthesised. The catalytic hydrogenation of these two rotaxanes proceeds slower than those of the corresponding free axle compounds 6a and 6b, indicating steric hindrance of the C=C double bond by the wheel of the rotaxane in each case. Nontheless, the rotaxane 9with an aliphatic (succinic acid) middle region in its axle can be prepared in this manner. Dehydrobromination of the axle in the rotaxane 15yields the rotaxane 16 with a C≡C triple bond located in the centre of the axle.

    Notes: -The crystal structures of methyl 4-methoxycubane-1-carboxylate (1), 1-acetamido-4-fluorocubane (2), methyl 4-acetoxycubane-1-carboxylate (3), 1,4-difluorocubane (4), 1,4-dichlorocubane (5), and N,N-diisopropylcubane-1,4-dicarboxamide (6) have been investigated by means of X-ray diffraction analysis. Fluorine and chlorine substituents cause a shortening of the vicinal bonds, as is seen in the 4-halocubane-1-carboxylates. The cage bonds vicinal to the ester substituent, with a favorable orientation with regard to the π-acceptor influence of this group become longer than the CH-CH bonds. Furthermore, the influence on bond length with respect to the orientation of this group relative to bonds within the cubane skeleton has been investigated experimentally. The effect of the methoxy group has also been found to depend on the orientation. The cage bond antiperiplanar to the methyl group is shortened, while the cage bonds in gauche orientation to this group are lengthened. As seen in the case of the halogen-substituted derivatives, the bonds bearing the acetoxy substituent are shortened due to the σ-acceptor property of this group. Ab initio calculations on compounds 1, 2, 4, and 5 performed at the 6-31G* level confirm the experimental results.

    Notes: -A [2]catenane, able to bind π-electron-rich guests inside the cavity of one of its two macrocyclic components has been designed and synthesized using supramolecular assistance. This recognition motif has been exploited to template the formation of a so-called rotacatenane - i.e., a molecule composed of a dumbbell-shaped component threaded through the cavity of one of the two mechanically interlocked macrocyclic components of a [2]catenane. The structure of this [2]catenane, as well as that of a model [2]catenane, have been characterized unequivocally by single-crystal X-ray analyses. Furthermore, some of the co-conformational changes associated with these mechanically interlocked molecules in solution have been probed by variable-temperature 1H-NMR spectroscopy.

    Notes: -Intermolecular addition of radicals to the 1,3-dioxin-4-ones 1a,b and 2a,b with (-)-menthone incorporated as chiral auxiliary in 2-position were investigated. Photochemically generated radicals from 1,3-dioxolane, oxolane, and 2-propanol were added with high facial selectivity from the more exposed a-side. Intramolecular addition of 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl radicals to chiral dioxinones proceeded less efficiently and with lower selectivity also from the a-side. Nevertheless, it was possible to form the new spirocyclic compounds 22-27. The 1,3-dioxin-4-ones 32a,b possessing an unsaturated side chain were attacked by radicals at the terminal double bond. In the case of irradiation of 32b in 1,3-dioxolane a cyclization followed the intermolecular addition of a 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl radical and the dispiro compound 36 was formed. However, the formation of dispiro compound 40 required two reaction steps starting with irradiation of 32b and bromotrichloromethane. The achiral 1,3-dioxin-4-one 44 possessing an unsaturated side chain at C-2 was attacked by 1,3-dioxolan-2-yl radicals preferentially at C-6.

    Notes: -Several new approaches for the enantioselective synthesis of the chromane moiety of vitamin E are described. Sonogashira coupling of 3a with the alkyne 4 and subsequent elimination gave 6, which was bis(hydroxylated) in 93% yield and with 85% ee. Recrystallization gave enantiopure 7a, which was hydrogenated and transformed into the vitamin E precursor 11. The bis(hydroxylation) of 18 and 21 to give 9 and 22, respectively, was less than satisfactory, proceeding with ee values of 28% and 18%. In contrast, stereoselective allylation of ketone 15 followed by removal of the protecting group or ozonolysis of the allyl moiety furnished the allyl alcohol 26 and the aldehyde 27, respectively, in almost enantiopure form, which again could be used as precursors for vitamin E. Partial hydrogenation of 5a gave the alkene 32a and that of 28 the alkene 30b, both of which show interesting atropisomerism.

The inclusion properties and the clathrate stoichiometries depend in a systematic manner on the structure of the host molecules. The crystal structures of six selected clathrates of different classes of compound have been determined by X-ray diffraction.

We describe here the total synthesis of these natural compounds following the synthetic strategy that we have used previously for the synthesis of damirones A and B, batzelline C, isobatzelline C, discorhabdin C, and makaluvamines A, B, C, and D. The introduction of the methylthio group by electrophilic substitution of a pyrrolo[4,3,2-de]quinoline, appropriately substituted and in a suitable oxidation state, is the key step in the success of these syntheses.

The fluorescence band position and intensity are also remarkably sensitive to H+. Irradiation of the anthracene 7 in solution yields the syn and anti head-to-tail dimers exclusively. A synergistic electronic effect between the donor and acceptor substituents is proposed to operate on the photophysical and photochemical properties of anthracene 7.

    Notes: The dioximes 4-6 and the dimethoximes 7-9, which contain the functional groups in opposite positions of a six-, eight-, or ten-membered ring, were synthesized. Their conformational properties and transannular interactions were investigated by spectroscopic (PE, 13C NMR) and theoretical (MMX, AM1, ab initio HF, and B3LYP) methods. While the cyclooctane derivatives 5 and 8 have conformations favourable for through-space interactions of the π(C=N) orbitals, in the other compounds no such interactions can be ascertained.

    Notes: The bicyclic dioximes 4-6 and dimethoximes 7-9, which contain the functional groups in opposite positions of bridged eight-membered rings, were synthesized. Their conformational properties and transannular interactions were investigated by spectroscopic (PE, 13C NMR) and theoretical (MMX, AM1, ab initio HF, and B3LYP) methods. While in the 3,7-disubstituted bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives 5 and 8 the eight-membered ring has a CC conformation favourable for through-space interactions of the π(C=N) orbitals, in the bicyclo[3.3.0]octane derivatives 4 and 7 as well as the 2,6-disubstituted bicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes 6 and 9 the functional groups are in geometric orientations that are unfavourable for such interactions. Through-space orbital interactions in the molecules with favourable conformations lead to a splitting of the π(C=N) MOs of 0.4-0.6 eV.

    Notes: A series of compounds Q2Z was prepared, where Q = [2.2]paracyclophan-4-yl and Z = C(=O) (4), CH2 (5), SiMe2 (6), S (7), P(=O)OMe (8), and C(=O)C(=O) (9). Because of the planar chirality of Q, these compounds occur as meso- (m) and chiral (c) diastereomers, which were formed in equal amounts. They were separated in the cases of 4-7 and enriched in the case of 9 (diastereomeric ratio ca. 7:3). Compound 8 possesses a pseudoasymmetric phosphorus centre and occurs as one chiral (8c) and two meso diastereomers (8m1, 8m2), all three of which were isolated separately. The configurations of 5m/5c, 6m/6c, and 8c were directly determined by NMR spectroscopy, that of 4m/4c indirectly by reducing the separated compounds to 5m and 5c, respectively, and that of 7m by X-ray diffraction. The favoured conformations of 4-8 were studied by molecular mechanics computations by using the MM3(94) program. An attempt was made to rationalize some chemical shift differences between diastereomers on the basis of the conformers predicted.

    Notes: -The synthesis and reactivity of mono- and bis(chloromethyl)-2,2′-bipyrazines toward nucleophiles are reported. The reactivity of the bipyrazine ring is explained in terms of allylic substitution and rearrangement mechanisms. A new family of monofunctionalized bipyrazine derivatives as molecular building blocks for supermolecules has been obtained, opening access to unsymmetrical ligands. The low-temperature crystallographic structure and the experimental electron density distribution of 6,6′-bis(chloromethyl)-2,2′-bipyrazine have been determined on the basis of high-resolution X-ray diffraction data. The electron density of the molecule has been accurately analyzed using the topological properties of its gradient and Laplacian features. The reactivity of these bidentate molecules in metal complexation is related to the shape of the atomic basins and may be explained in terms of a key/lock-type interaction. The results are compared with corresponding data for 2,2′-dimethyl-6,6′-diphenyl-4,4′-bipyrimidine.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under -http://www.wileY-Vch.de/contents/jc_2046/1999/98532_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: The proton-transfer equilibrium of several bases and acids, including some sterically hindered ketones, sulfoxides, and phenols, has been investigated by means of the determination of the thermodynamics of the equilibrium, NMR 13C relaxation measurements, and quantum chemical calculations. The analysis of such data yields information about the steric effects on basicity or acidity and about the underlying reasons for the anomalous behavior of species having a sterically hindered basic or acidic site. Thus, it is demonstrated that the anomalously low basicity of two sterically hindered ketones (tBu2CO and PhCOtBu) is enthalpic in origin and stems from steric hindrance to the solvation of their protonated forms. No such effect is found for analogous sulfoxides, whereas phenols display a more complex behavior.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under //http://www.wiley-vch.de/contents/jc_2046/1999/99105_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: A new and efficient method of preparing 3,4-pyrrolediacetic esters 3 is reported, together with their conversion, according to the Lindsey procedure, to a series of octa- and dodeca-substituted porphyrins. This procedure, which consists of a palladium-catalysed oxidative alkoxycarbonylation of N-substituted dipropargylamine derivatives 1, works nicely for n-alkyl alcohols in the range C1 to C14. The thermotropic behaviour of this series of porphyrins (28 compounds) has been investigated using polarization microscopy, DSC, X-ray diffraction, and miscibility tests. The planarity of the macrocyclic core constitutes the major structural requirement for mesophase formation. The mesophase temperature range is controlled by the length of the side chains through the melting point and by the strength of π-π interactions among the cores through the clearing point. The same set of rules governing porphyrin packing in the solid state can be employed to predict mesophase formation and organization in porphyrin octaesters

    Notes: The rate constants of the electrocyclic ring closure of (1Z,3Z,5E)-1,2,6-triphenylhexa-1,3,5-triene (1) and of the ring opening of dimethyl 3,4-dimethyl-1,2-diphenylcyclobutene-cis-3,4-dicarboxylate (3) were determined in 15 and 16 solvents, respectively. The ring closure of 1 shows, in spite of theoretical predictions, neither solvent nor salt effects. For the ring opening of 3, small solvent and salt effects were found, suggesting the possibility of observing small acceleration due to specific solute-solvent or salt interactions.

    Notes: Chiral (salen)manganese complexes, which are selectively soluble in perfluorocarbons, were synthesized and tested as epoxidation catalysts in fluorous-organic two-phase systems. The immiscibility of the perfluorocarbons with regular organic solvents allowed a quick and effective separation of the catalyst from the products. These unprecedented perfluoroalkylated salen complexes were found to be efficient and chemoselective catalysts in the presence of several oxygen donors, but enantioselectivities were generally poor. An interesting exception to this behaviour was observed in the asymmetric epoxidation of indene that provides indene oxide with 70-92% enantiomeric excess.

    Notes: Reaction of fluorenone (4) with a low-valent titanium reagent generated from TiCl4 and Zn in THF in the presence of pyridine gave terfluorenyl (6) in 71% yield, bifluorenylidene (2), the conventional McMurry reaction product, in 2% yield, and additional reduction products. The reductive “trimerization” was rationalized in terms of an attack of the intermediate fluorenone dianion on bifluorenylidene. The molecular structure of a single crystal of 6 indicated an approximately C2 conformation, with a slightly twisted central ring, and two equally folded side moieties with dihedral angles of 58.1° and 58.0° between the central and side five-membered rings. The AM1 and PM3 calculations showed C2 global minima, similar to the conformation in the crystal. The calculated Cs transition state conformations were found to be 21.3 (AM1) and 19.9 (PM3) kcal/mol higher in energy than the global C2 minima. A 2D-NMR NOESY experiment on 6 supported the C2 (+sc,+sc) or C2 (-sc,-sc) conformation in solution.

    Notes: A new asymmetric synthesis of disubstituted α-amino acids is presented. This synthesis is based on the chiral 5-methoxy-1,4-oxazin-2-one derivative 5 relying on the α-hydroxy acid 1 as a chiral auxiliary. Alkylation reactions of the glycine equivalent 5 are performed by deprotonation with sec-butyllithium and subsequent reaction with alkyl halides, yielding the monoalkylated compounds 13 and 14. A second alkylation step of the lithium enolates of 13 and 14 leads to the α,α-disubstituted compounds 17. Both steps proceed with good yields and excellent stereoselectivities (up to 99% de). From the major diastereomers 17c-d the corresponding α-amino acids 19c-d are obtained enantiomerically pure upon hydrolytic cleavage with aqueous sodium hydroxide. Alkylation of the enolate ion of 5 with epichlorohydrines as bifunctional electrophiles provides the cyclopropyl derivatives 20a-b. Direct hydrolysis or oxidation of 20a-b, followed by reductive amination and hydrolysis leads to the substituted 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acids 21a-b and 24a-b.

    Notes: The formal [3+2] cycloaddition of β-amino-substituted α,β-unsaturated Fischer carbenechromium complexes 2, which are easily prepared in a one-pot procedure from terminal alkynes 1 via an initially formed alkynylidene complex by a Michael-type addition of a secondary amine, with a variety of alkynes 3 afford the 1,2,5-trisubstituted 3-alkoxy-5-dialkylamino-1,3-cyclopentadienes 4 with an acetal-protected aldehyde or ketone carbonyl group in either the 5-substituent R1 or the N-substituent R2. Under acidic conditions, both the enol ether moiety in the 5-membered ring as well as the acetals in the side chains are hydrolyzed, and the resulting cyclopentenones 6 with carbonyl-group containing side-chains undergo facile intramolecular aldol reactions to give bicyclo[3.3.0]oct-2-en-4-ones 8 and 8-azabicyclo[3.3.0]oct-2-en-4-ones 12, respectively, in good to very good yields for most cases.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under //http://www.wiley-vch.de/contents/jc_2046/1999/99100_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: The 5-acceptor-substituted 2,3-dibromofurans 1 and 2 underwent a regioselective Pd0-catalyzed coupling reaction at the C-2 carbon atom. With alkynes the corresponding 2-alkynylfurans 4 and 5 were accessible (49-97% yield). Alkyl-, aryl-, and alkenylzinc reagents gave the 2-substituted furans 8 starting from compound 2 (66-84% yield). The 2-allylfurans 8e and 8f were obtained by a regioselective Stille coupling in 79% and 73% yield. The latter reaction was also applied to the parent 2,3-dibromofuran (27) and yielded the substitution product 28 (60% yield). Subsequent Pd0-catalyzed reactions to introduce a methyl group in 3-position by a methyldebromination were successfully conducted for 2-alkynyl-3-bromofurans with MeZnCl and PdCl2(PPh3)2 as the catalyst in THF (reflux) to yield compounds 13-16 and 24 (67-76%) and with SnMe4 and PdCl2[P(o-Tol)3]2 as the catalyst in DMA (90 °C) for the 2-allyl-3-bromofuran 8e to yield 18 (70%). The more facile reaction of the 2-alkynylfurans relative to those of furans bearing an sp3-carbon atom at C-2 appears to be due to steric reasons. Studies on the 2-alkyl-3-bromofuran 20 supported this notion. With the regioselective coupling methodology the terpene rosefuran (22) was prepared in four steps starting from furan 2 (35% yield overall). The F5 furan fatty acid (26) was synthesized from furan 1 in five steps (29% yield overall).

    Notes: The mechanistic reaction pathway for the slow-binding inhibition of rabbit muscle aldolase by D-glycero-tetrulose 1-phosphate (D-erythrulose 1-phosphate) was investigated through the use of its phosphonomethyl isoster 4 which was synthezised for this study. The latter is not a substrate nor a slow-binding inhibitor but interferes in the enzyme-catalyzed reaction with the substrate fructose 1,6-diphosphate in a competitive manner. It was found that phosphonate 4 forms an iminium ion with aldolase and undergoes subsequent α-proton abstraction to form an enamine intermediate. We show from these results that enzyme slow-binding inhibition by D-erythrulose 1-phosphate is consistent with a phosphate β-elimination reaction through the enamine intermediate. This mechanism takes into account the stereochemical features known for aldolase, the parallel between enzyme activity recovery and phosphate release after action of D-erythrulose 1-phosphate, and also the same reaction from dihydroxyacetone phosphate.
