objective during the last three decades sesquiterpenoid lactones have emerged as one of the largest groups of plant products with over 3000 naturally occurring substances known. the genus artemisia characteristically contains this biologically active type of secondary metabolites. with respect to increasing interest in the cytotoxic, antibiotic, phototoxic and antineoplastic activities of sesqu...

The worldwide heparin contamination crisis in 2008 led health authorities to take fundamental steps to better control heparin manufacture, including implementing appropriate analytical and bio-analytical methods to ensure production and release of high quality heparin sodium product. Consequently, there is an increased interest in the identification and structural elucidation of unusually modif...

stable crystalline phosphorus ylides are obtained in excellent yields from the 1:1:1 addition reactionbetween hydantoins or thiohydantoins and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates in the presence oftriphenylphosphine. these phosphoranes undergo smooth intramolecular wittig reaction followedby an electrocyclic ring opening to produce dialkyl (e)-2-(2,5-dihydro-5,5-diaryl-2-thioxo-1h-imidazol-4-yl)fum...

condensation of aromatic aldehydes with benzoyl acetone under specified conditions yieldedtwo series of polycarbonyl compounds in which the keto group is attached to olefinic linkage.spectral and analytical data revealed the formation of an unsaturated triketone from pyridine-3-carbaldehyde and unsaturated diketone from furfural, salicylaldehyde and 2-hydroxynaphthaldehyde. analytical, ir, 1h n...

the 1h and natural-abundance 13c-nmr spectra of 1-thiacyclooctan-3-one (1) have been measured from 25 to -100°c. coalescence is observed in the 1h-nmr spectra of (1) at about -80°c, and attributed to ring inversion in a boat-chair conformation, which is the predominant conformation of (1). the free energy of activation (dg¹) for this process is 9.2±0.2 kcal/mol. the 13c-nmr spectra of (1) is te...

body's iterative force-field computer program has been used to calculate strain energies in cyclooctanone (i). 348 mhz 1h nmr spectra of (i) have been investigated over the temperature range of 25° to -160°c. two conformation processes affect the 1h nmr spectrum of (i). iterative force-field calculations on the conformations and conformational interconversion paths of (i) give results consisten...
