SummaryThe anticoagulant activity of 3.3’-(benzylidene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives has been estimated by one step Quick’s method. The derivatives contained the following groups in the para position of benzylidene residue: NCS- (I), CH3-S- (II), CH3-SO-(III), CH3-S02- (IV), C2H5-S- (V), C2H5-SO- (VI), C2H5-S02- (VII). All these compounds were much more active than 3.3’-(benzylidene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin itself.Compounds possessing the ethyl chain at the sulphur atom (V, VI, VII) were more active than methyl homologues (II, III, IV). Comparison of the activity of the series of thio-, sulphoxy-, and sulphonyl-derivatives showed that among methyl- and ethyl-derivatives those with the sulphoxy grouping (III, VI) displayed the greatest anticoagulant activity. The action of sulphonyl (IV, VII) and thio-derivatives (II, V) was weaker and shortest. The derivative with the NCS-group (I) possessed a relatively the lowest activity among the investigated compounds. 3.3’-(p-Ethylsulphoxybenzyl-idene)-bis-4-hydroxycoumarin (VI), with distinct biological activity reached about ½ of dicoumarol activity.

The design of new chiral materials usually requires stereoselective organic synthesis to create molecules with chiral centers. Less commonly, achiral molecules can self-assemble into chiral materials, despite the absence of intrinsic molecular chirality. Here, we demonstrate the assembly of high-symmetry molecules into a chiral van der Waals structure by synthesizing crystals of C<sub>60</sub>(SnI<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub> from icosahedral buckminsterfullerene (C<sub>60</sub>) and tetrahedral SnI4 molecules through spontaneous self-assembly. The SnI<sub>4</sub> tetrahedra template the Sn atoms into a chiral cubic three-connected net of the SrSi<sub>2</sub> type that is held together by van der Waals forces. Our results represent the remarkable emergence of a self-assembled chiral material from two of the most highly symmetric molecules, demonstrating that almost any molecular, nanocrystalline, or engineered precursor can be considered when designing chiral assemblies.

We report detailed mechanistic investigations of an iron-based catalyst system, which allows the α-C-H oxidation of a wide variety of amines, including acyclic tertiary aliphatic amines, to afford dealkylated or amide products. In contrast to other catalysts that affect α-C-H oxidations of tertiary amines, the system under investigation employs exclusively peroxy esters as oxidants. More common oxidants (e.g. tBuOOH) previously reported to affect amine oxidations via free radical pathways do not provide amine α-C-H oxidation products in combination with the herein described catalyst system. Motivated by this difference in reactivity to more common free radical systems, the investigations described herein employ initial rate kinetics, kinetic profiling, Eyring studies, kinetic isotope effect studies, Hammett studies, ligand coordination studies, and EPR studies to shed light on the Fe catalyst system. The obtained data suggest that the catalytic mechanism proceeds through C-H abstraction at a coordinated substrate molecule. This rate-determining step occurs either at an Fe(IV) oxo pathway or a 2-electron pathway at a Fe(II) intermediate with bound oxidant. We further show via kinetic profiling and EPR studies that catalyst activation follows a radical pathway, which is initiated by hydrolysis of PhCO3 tBu to tBuOOH in the reaction mixture. Overall, the obtained mechanistic data support a non-classical, Fe catalyzed pathway that requires substrate binding, thus inducing selectivity for α-C-H functionalization.<br>

The Stability

Thermal TG/DTG/DTA analysis coupled with FTIR spectroscopy was applied to some sorts of mineral and vegetable oils used in electrical equipment. On heating in inert atmosphere, it was observed that the mineral oils vaporize, while the vegetable oils undergo hydrolysis, yielding fatty acids as main volatiles, as indicated by FTIR. In synthetic air, the FTIR spectra of gaseous products confirm the presence of similar oxidation products, both for mineral and vegetable oils. The TG results indicated that the vegetable-based oils exhibit a substantially higher thermal stability than the mineral oils. The presence or absence of anti-oxidant inhibitors in these oils greatly influences the onset of the oxidation process in air environment factor, as results from the DTA results.

The paper presents the results of the study on the effect of low-temperature heat treatment on color characteristics and protein oxidation products depending on the method, temperature and duration of heat treatment of culinary products from turkey meat. At present, the use of low-temperature processing in the production technology for meat products with improved organoleptic indices is a topical direction.
