During modification of protein amino groups with carboxylic acid anhydrides, these reagents cause a fall in pH, which can be prevented by addition of base. Although unmodified nucleosomal particles are not affected by the local transient changes in pH induced by the base (NaOH) added to prevent a fall in pH during modification, the nucleosomal particles modified by acetic anhydride are dissociated, with release of single-stranded DNA.

N-Alkylation of N-Boc-O-benzylhydroxylamine (1) with benzyl 4-bromobutyrate (2) in DMF gave N,O-bisprotected benzyl 4-hydroxyamino-butyrate (3), which was converted into 4-benzyloxyamino-butyric acid benzyl ester (4) with TFA in methylene chloride. Treatment of 4 with formic acid/acetic anhydride or various acid chlorides followed by catalytic hydrogenation led to 4-(N-acyl-N-hydroxyamino)-butyric acids 6.

The synthesis of the fully equatorial form of trans-3,4-dihydroxycyclohexyl carbinol was achieved and proof of its configuration is presented. The equatorial epimer was prepared from 3-cyclohexcne-1-carboxaldehyde which was oxidized to 3-cyclohexene-11-carboxylic acid, hydroxylated and esterified to give methyl trans-3,4-dihydroxycyclohexyl-1-carboxylate. This compound was converted to the fully equatorial configuration by the use of a base. Reduction of the epimeric ester yielded the desired model compound. Proof of stereochemistry of the model was obtained from infrared spectra, boiling and melting points, and gas chromatography. The boiling points of the epimers were in agreement with the von Auwers-Skita or Conformational Rule. The cellulose model compound was reacted in separate experiments with acetic anhydride, formic acid, and N-(methoxymethylol)acetamide. Gas chromatography was used to observe the rate of reaction and periodate oxidation to determine the amount of secondary hydroxyl reacted. The results indicated extensive participation of the secondary hydroxyls in all cases and correlated with the data reported for cellulose.

The cis–trans-isomerism of the propiolic acid monomer (HCC–COOH) is examined with linear Raman jet spectroscopy, yielding the first environment-free vibrational band centres of a higher-energy cis-rotamer beyond formic acid (HCOOH) in addition to all fundamentals and a large number of hot and combination/overtone bands of the trans-conformer.
