The only form of cellulose which could unequivocally be ascribed to the animal kingdom is the tunicin that occurs in the tests of the tunicates. Recently, high-resolution solid-state l3C NMR revealed that tunicin belongs to the Iβ form of cellulose as opposed to the Iα form found in Valonia and bacterial celluloses. The high perfection of the tunicin crystallites led us to study its crosssectional shape and to compare it with the shape of those in Valonia ventricosa (V.v.), the goal being to relate the cross-section of cellulose crystallites with the two allomorphs Iα and Iβ.In the present work the source of tunicin was the test of the ascidian Halocvnthia papillosa (H.p.). Diffraction contrast imaging in the bright field mode was applied on ultrathin sections of the V.v. cell wall and H.p. test with cellulose crystallites perpendicular to the plane of the sections. The electron microscope, a Philips 400T, was operated at 120 kV in a low intensity beam condition.

Digital Watermarking is a technology, to facilitate the authentication, copyright protection and Security of digital media. The objective of developing a robust watermarking technique is to incorporate the maximum possible robustness without compromising with the transparency. Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) using Firefly Algorithm provides this objective of an optimal robust watermarking technique. Multiple scaling factors are used to embed the watermark image into the host by multiplying these scaling factors with the Singular Values (SV) of the host image. Firefly Algorithm is used to optimize the modified host image to achieve the highest possible robustness and transparency. This approach can significantly increase the quality of watermarked image and provide more robustness to the embedded watermark against various attacks such as noise, geometric attacks, filtering attacks etc.

: In this work, 1,2,4-triazine derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for anticancer activities. Series of 1,2,4-triazine derivatives (4a, b) were prepared via the reaction of N-benzoyl glycine (1) with aromatic aldehydes in presence of fused sodium acetate and acetic anhydride to give 1,3-oxazolinone derivatives (2a, b), followed by condensation with 1-(ethoxycarbonyl) hydrazine (3) in glacial acetic acid. Compounds (4a, b) then reacted with acetic anhydride, ethyl chloroacetate and 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazine yielded the corresponding to N-acetyl derivatives (5a, b), N-(ethoxycarbonyl) methyl derivative (6) and 1,2-disubstituted hydrazine (7), respectively. The structures of the 1,2,4-triazine derivatives were confirmed by IR, 1H, 13C NMR, MS and elemental analyses. Anticancer activity of some 1,2,4-triazine derivatives (4-7) have been investigated. The results revealed that compounds 4a (IC50= 2.7μM), 5a (IC50= 1.5μM), and 5b (IC50= 3.9μM) show promising inhibitory growth efficacy compared to a standard antitumor drug (IC50= 4.6μM). These three compounds can be considered as potential agents against human hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (HepG-2).

2,7-Dimethyl-2,6-octadiene is formed in the catalytic solution for the dimerization of 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene to β-myrcene (3-methylene-7-methyl-1,6-octadiene), as revealed by mass spectrometry and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Visual observations together with the results of gas chromatographic analysis of the catalytic solution suggest that the formation of 2,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadiene is associated with the transition of the alkali metal (sodium) from the solid phase into the solution. A reaction pathway is suggested accounting for the formation of 2,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadiene in the system.

It was found that three crystalline forms of ethylene glycol dibenzoate can be prepared. Infrared and Raman spectra of these three forms, as well as of the glassy and liquid states, were measured. From 3JHH coupling constants obtained by analysis of the 13C satellite band of the -CH2- group in 1H NMR spectra, and from the 3JCH coupling constants of the -CO.O.CH2- fragment obtained by analysis of the carbonyl band in 13C NMR spectra it was found that in the liquid state the -CH2-CH2- group exists predominantly in the gauche conformational structure, and the bonds C-O-C-C assume predominantly a trans orientation. The results of the analysis of NMR and vibrational spectra were used for the structural interpretation of conformationally sensitive bands in vibrational spectra of ethylene glycol dibenzoate.

The cyclization of 3-N(4- and 5-benzimidazolyl and benztriazolyl)amino-2-cyano- and 2-ethoxycarbonyl-2-propenoate esters Ia, b-IVa, b under the conditions of the Gould-Jacobs reaction leads to angularly ring-fused substituted imidazo or triazolo[4,5-f] (V, VI) and [4,5-h] (VII, VIII) quinolines, respectively. The esters Vb-VIIIb have been transformed into the corresponding chloroderivatives Vc-VIIIc. 3-N(5-Benzimidazolyl and 5-benztriazolyl)amino-2-cyano-2-propenenitriles are cyclized in the presence of aluminium(III) chloride to give the aminoquinolines Vd, VId. The structure of the products has been characterized by their 1H, 13C NMR, IR, and UV spectra.

New synthesis of pyrido[3,4-e]-1,3-thiazines consisting in reaction of 2,6-dimethyl-4-chloronicotinoyl isothiocyanate with primary or secondary amines, or with benzaldehyde phenylhydrazone, is described. High reactivity of the chlorine atom does not allow isolation of the corresponding thioureas, arising as intermediates, except in the case of the benzylamino derivative. Structure of the products was unequivocally confirmed by their spectral data (IR, UV, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectra). The synthesized derivatives do not undergo the Dimroth rearrangement.

13C NMR spectra of 18 ferrocene analogues of trans stilbenes (1-aryl-2-ferrocenylethylenes) were measured. It was found that bridge group weakens the transfer of the substituent electron effects into ferrocene nucleus, especially distinctly into 3',4'positions of cyclopentadienyl ring. The transfer of substituent effects into β-position of the bridge -CH=CH- is greater in derivatives studied by us than in stilbenes. Synthesis of 1-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-2-ferrocenylethylene is described.
