Substitution reaction of 5-nitrofurfuryl bromide (I) with sodium thiophenoxide and 4-chlorothiophenoxide in dimethyl sulfoxide at 20 °C and oxidation with dimethyl sulfoxide in the reaction medium afforded 5-nitrofurfuryl phenyl sulfone (IVa) and 5-nitrofurfuryl 4-chlorophenyl sulfone (IVb), respectively. Similarly, 4-nitrobenzyl bromide reacted with sodium 4-chlorothiophenoxide to give 4-nitrobenzyl 4-chlorophenyl sulfone (VII) and with sodium phenylsulfinate to afford 4-nitrobenzyl phenyl sulfone (IX). The sulfide intermediates were not isolated. The sulfone IX was used as substrate in alkylation reactions, catalysed by polyethylene glycols. Derivatives IVb and VII were identified by IR and mass spectroscopy, alkylation products by 1H NMR spectroscopy.

Introduction: We have demonstrated that Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) activity is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear envelope of Mueller glia in the normal and pathological guinea pig retina. Using a combination of this cytochemical technique and high voltage electron microscopy, the distribution of nuclear pores could be clearly observed on the nuclear envelope of Mueller glia because of their anatomical lack of reaction products. This technique was developed to study the three-dimensional structure of nuclei and to calculate total numbers of nuclear pores utilizing a computer graphic analysis system in the normal and pathological retina.Materials and methods: Normal and photocoagulated retina of pigmented adult guinea pigs were perfused with a cold mixture of 0.25% glutaraldehyde and 2% paraformaldehyde in 0.1M cacodylate buffer, and the enucleated globes were hemisected and immersed in the same fixative for 30 min. After sectioning and incubation in the reaction medium for the detection of G6Pase activity by the method of Wachstein-Meisel, the sections were postfixed, dehydrated and embedded in Spurr’s epoxy resin. Serial thick sections (1.0um) were prepared for the observation by a Hitachi high voltage electron microscope (H 1250-M) with an accelerating voltage of 1000 Kv. and pictures were analyzed and three-dimensionally reconstructed by TRI (RATOC Co., Ltd.).

SummaryPlatelet function defects observed in chronic alcoholics are not wholly explained by the inhibitory action of ethanol on platelet aggregation; they are not completely reproduced either in vivo by short-term ethanol perfusion into volunteers or in vitro by the addition of ethanol to platelet-rich plasma. As acetaldehyde (AcH) binds to many proteins and impairs cellular activities, we investigated the effect of this early degradation product of ethanol on platelets. AcH formed adducts with human platelets at neutral pH at 37° C which were stable to extensive washing, trichloracetic acid hydrolysis and heating at 100° C, and were not reduced by sodium borohydride. The amount of platelet adducts formed was a function of the incubation time and of the concentration of AcH in the reaction medium. At low AcH concentrations (<0.2 mM), platelet bound AcH was directly proportional to the concentration of AcH in the reaction medium. At higher concentrations (≥0.2 mM), AcH uptake by platelets tended to reach a plateau. The amount of adducts was also proportional to the number of exposures of platelets to pulses of 20 pM AcH.AcH adducts formation severely impaired platelet aggregation and shape change induced by ADP, collagen and thrombin. A positive correlation was established between platelet-bound AcH and inhibition of aggregation.SDS-PAGE analysis of AcH adducts at neutral pH demonstrated the binding of [14C]acetaldehyde to many platelet proteins. AcH adduct formation with membrane glycoproteins, cytoskeleton and enzymes might interfere with several steps of platelet activation and impair platelet aggregation.This in vitro study shows that AcH has a major inhibitory action on platelet aggregation and may account for the prolonged ex vivo inhibition of aggregation observed in chronic alcoholics even in the absence of alcoholemia.

The rate of ammonia production by the <u>chemical </u>oxidation of iron, N<sub>2</sub>(from air or as pure nitrogen) and water is studied as a function of (1) iron particle size, (2) iron concentration, (3) temperature, (4) pressureand (5) concentration of the alkaline reaction medium. The reaction meduium consists of an aqueous solution of equal molal concentrations of NaOH and KOH (Na<sub>0.5</sub>K<sub>0.5</sub>OH). We had previously reported on the <u>chemical </u>reaction of iron and nitrogen in alkaline medium to ammonia as an intermediate step in the <u>electrochemical </u>synthesis of ammonia by a nano-sized iron oxide electrocatlyst. Here, the intermediate <u>chemical </u>reaction step is exclusively explored. The ammonia production rate increases with temperature (from 20 to 250°C), pressure (from 1 atm to 15 atm of air or N<sub>2</sub>), and exhibits a maximum rate at an electrolyte concentration of 8 molal Na<sub>0,5</sub>K<sub>0,5</sub>OH in a sealed N<sub>2</sub>reactor. 1-3 µm particle size Fe drive the highest observed ammonia production reaction rate. The Fe mass normalized rate of ammonia production increases with decreasing added mass of the Fe reactant reaching a maximum observed rate of 2.2x10<sup>-4</sup>mole of NH<sub>3</sub>h<sup>-1</sup>g<sup>-1</sup>for the reaction of 0.1 g of 1-3 µm Fe in 200°C 8 molal Na<sub>0.5</sub>K<sub>0.5</sub>OH at 15 atm. Under these conditions 5.1 wt% of the iron reacts to form NH<sub>3</sub>via the reaction N<sub>2</sub>+ 2Fe + 3H<sub>2</sub>O ®2NH<sub>3</sub>+ Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>.

Due to special properties of ILs (Ionic Liquids) like their wide liquid range, good solvating ability, negligible vapour pressure, non-inflammability, environment friendly medium, high thermal stability, easy recycling and rate promoters etc. they are used in organic synthesis. The investigation for the replacement of organic solvents in organic synthesis is a growing area of interest due to increasing environmental issues. Therefore, ionic liquids have attracted the attention of chemists and act as a catalyst and reaction medium in organic reaction with high activity. There is no doubt that ionic liquids have become a major subject of study for modern chemistry. In comparison to traditional processes the use of ionic liquids resulted in improved, complimentary or alternative selectivities in organic synthesis. The present manuscript reported the synthesis of multiple nitrogen containing five-membered heterocyclic compounds using ionic liquids. This review covered interesting discoveries in the past few years.

: An efficient and facial one-pot synthesis of 4-aryl-3,4-dihydrobenzo[g]quinoline- 2,5,10(1H)-triones was developed for the first time. The process proceeded via the three-component cyclocondensation of 2-amino-1,4-naphthoquinone with Meldrum’s acid and substituted benzaldehydes under green conditions. The fused 3,4-dihydropyridin-2(1H)- one-ring naphthoquinones have been synthesized with good to high yields in refluxing ethanol as a green reaction medium. This protocol is simple and effective as well as does not involve the assistance of the catalyst, additive, or hazardous solvents.
