Treatment of cyclododecane-r-1,c-5,c-9-triyl tris(p-toluenesulphonate) with sodium azide in dimethyl-formamide at 100� for 6 h gave the corresponding cis,cis-triazide which upon hydrogenation or reduction with lithium aluminium hydride gave cyclododecane-r-1,c-5,c-9-triamine, isolated as the tris-salicylidene derivative. Acid hydrolysis of this, removal of the salicylaldehyde, and treatment of the aqueous solution with sodium carbonate and 2,3-dimethoxybenzoyl chloride gave r-1,c-5,c- 9-tris(2,3-dimethoxybenzamido)cyclododecane. ��� Treatment of (E,E,E)-cyclododeca-1,5,9-triene with an excess of acetonitrile and sulphuric acid at room temperature for three days gave 18% of (E,E)-1-acetamidocyclododeca-4,8-diene; no di- or tri-amides were isolated.

Abstract Colorless alkylmolybdates(VI) of composition R-MoO3-are generated in aqueous solutions by the alkaline hydrolysis of complexes R-Mo(Bpy)(0)2Br(Bpy = 2,2′-bipyridyl, R = CH3 and higher alkyl). At room temperature in alkaline aqueous solution, the new organometallic derivatives of oxomolybdate(VI) are remarkably resistant against Mo-C bond hydrolysis. Decomposition occurs more rapidly on heating, affording unrearranged alkanes according to the eq.: R-MoO3- + OH-→RH + Mo04=. In acidic solutions, the methylmolybdate(VI) species decomposes with the formation of a mixture of methane and ethane while higher alkylmolybdates carrying hydrogen in the β-position relative to molybdenum undergo Mo-C bond heterolysis by way of β-elimina-tion: R-CH2CH2-MoO3 → Mo+4 (aq) + H+ + R-CH = CH2. The Mo-C bond of alkylmolybdates is resistant to oxidants but is very sensitive to cleavage under reducing conditions. Reductive Mo-C bond cleavage occurs particularly rapidly in the presence of thiols and reduced ferredoxin model compounds. The latter reactions simulate the terminal steps of hydrocarbon producing reactions of nitrogenase with alternate substrates such as CN-, R-CN or R-NC, confirming previous mechanistic conclusions concerning the mechanism of nitrogenase action.

Abstract The reaction of Fe(acac)3 (acac = acetylacetonate, 2,4-pentanedionate) with 1,4,7-triazacyclo- nonane (L) in acetone in the presence of water and NaClO4 yields green crystals of [L2Fe2III(acac)2(μ-O)](ClO4)2 (1) a μ-oxo bridged dimer of Fe(III) the crystal structure of which has been determined. Hydrolysis of this material in an acetone/water mixture in the presence of NaBr yields the green tetramer [L4Fe4III(μ-O)2(μ-OH)4]Br4 · 4H2O. Both compounds are strongly intramolecularly antiferromagnetically coupled. In contrast, the analogous reaction of Mn(acac)3 with L or N,N',N"-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (L') in ethanol or methanol yields yellow- green monomeric complexes of the type [LMnIII(acac)(OR)]+ or [L'Mn(acac)(OR)]+ (R = CH3, C2H5) which were isolated as tetraphenylborate or hexafluorophosphate salts. The crystal struc­ture of [L'Mn(acac)(OC2H5)]BPh4 (2) has been determined. If to the above reaction mixture cone. HClO4 was added, red [L'Mn(acac)(H2O)](CLO4)2 (3) precipitated. In alkaline aqueous solution [L'Mn(acac)(OH)]+ prevails. The crystal structure of 3 has also been determined. The new monomeric manganese(III) complexes have temperature independent (100-300 K) mag­netic moments of 4.8 to 5.1 μB in agreement with a high spin (d4) electronic configuration.

The hydrolysis of cinnamaldehyde in aqueous solution catalyzed by amino acids has been investigated. Eight amino acids e.g. glycine, proline etc. have been employed as the small molecular organocatalysts. The effect of reaction time, temperature, buffer concentration on the reaction has been studied. Spectroscopic analysis indicated the reaction product is 3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanal.

Introduction Previously we had suggested (l) that the striations observed in the pod shaped crystals of β FeOOH were an artefact of imaging in the electron microscope. Contrary to this adsorption measurements on bulk material had indicated the presence of some porosity and Gallagher (2) had proposed a model structure - based on the hollandite structure - showing the hollandite rods forming the sides of 30Å pores running the length of the crystal. Low resolution electron microscopy by Watson (3) on sectioned crystals embedded in methylmethacrylate had tended to support the existence of such pores.We have applied modern high resolution techniques to the bulk crystals and thin sections of them without confirming these earlier postulatesExperimental β FeOOH was prepared by room temperature hydrolysis of 0.01M solutions of FeCl3.6H2O, The precipitate was washed, dried in air, and embedded in Scandiplast resin. The sections were out on an LKB III Ultramicrotome to a thickness of about 500Å.

Abstract:: Activated peroxide systems are formed by adding so-called bleach activators to aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide, developed in the seventies of the last century for use in domestic laundry for their high energy efficiency and introduced at the beginning of the 21st century to the textile industry as an approach toward overcoming the extensive energy consumption in bleaching. In activated peroxide systems, bleach activators undergo perhydrolysis to generate more kinetically active peracids that enable bleaching under milder conditions while hydrolysis of bleach activators and decomposition of peracids may occur as side reactions to weaken the bleaching efficiency. This mini-review aims to summarize these competitive reactions in activated peroxide systems and their influence on bleaching performance.

Abstract A procedure for the enzymatic determination of lecithin and sphingomyelin in aqueous solution is described. The phospholipids are first dissolved in chloroform:methanol (2:1 by vol), the solvent is evaporated, and the residue is redissolved in an aqueous zwitterionic detergent solution. The enzymatic reaction sequences of both assays involve hydrolysis of the phospholipids to produce choline, which is then oxidized to betaine, thus generating hydrogen peroxide. The hydrogen peroxide is subsequently utilized in the enzymatic coupling of 4-aminoantipyrine and sodium 2-hydroxy-3,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonate, an intensely red color being formed. The presence of a non-reacting phospholipid enhances the hydrolysis of the reacting phospholipid. Thus we added lecithin to the sphingomyelin standards and sphingomyelin to the lecithin standards. This precise procedure may be applicable to determination of lecithin and sphingomyelin in amniotic fluid.

The hydrolysis of 32P-sodium polyphosphates (linear and cross-linked) in aqueous solution has been studied. The radiometric determinations indicate that the ortho-phosphate formation is a slow reaction, and that the amount formed by the linear variety is higher than that produced by the cross-linked form. There is a significant formation of metaphosphates during the hydrolysis of the cross-linked polyphosphate which is missing or at least reduced to a much lesser extent in the case of the linear polyphosphate.
