Cometathesis of methyl oleate with 1-hexene or with other α-olefins affords two new esters and two new olefins. In the case of 1-hexene these products are methyl 9-decenoate, methyl 9-tetradecenoate, 1-decene and 5-tetradecene. At the same time, the formation of the esters and olefins with shorter chains(i.e. decene and decenoate) is distinctly preffered. Obviously, the transfer of methylene group from the alkene to the ester molecule is much easier than that of the alkylidene moiety. The non-stoichiometric course of cometathesis is associated with the carbene mechanism of the reaction.

According to the results of quantum-chemical studies in the framework of the theory of functional density of the electron density using the B3LYP / 6-311 ++ G (d, p) method, a theoretical mechanism of the reaction of 1,3-dichlorobutene-2 with 1,2-ethanedithiol in the hydrazine hydrateKOH system has been proposed. It has been shown that this interaction proceeds sequentially in several stages, including the nucleophilic substitution of the chlorine atom of the sp3 hybridized carbon atom to the sulfur atom with the formation of a monosubstitution product (SN2 mechanism), which under the action of alkali undergoes deprotonation of the methylene group to form an allyl carbanion . The resulting carbanion, due to the migration of hydrogen and the removal of chlorine, is converted into an allene derivative, which as a result of the intramolecular nucleophilic attack of the free thiolate group on the central carbon atom of the allene fragment closes into the final dithian cycle.

Synthesis of 4β-methanesulphonyloxy-6β,7aβ-cyclo-B-homo-5α-cholestane is described. During its acetolysis a kind of conjugative stabilization of the carbocation formed was observed. The mechanism of the reaction is discussed.

It has been demonstrated that the EHT method predicts an almost plane form of the heterocyclic ring in 1-methyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide I (R = CH3) and also reflects satisfactorily character of the covalent bonds in the 4-methylene group. An attempt has been made of calculation of the reaction profile of elimination of the centre 4', and electronic mechanism of its splitting off is discussed.

The kinetics of the reactions of iron(III) with 6-methyl-2,4-heptanedione and 3,5-heptanedione to form the corresponding monocomplexes have been studied spectrophotometrically in the range 5 °C to 16 °C at I 25 mol l-1 in aqueous solution. In the proposed mechanism for the two complexes, the enol form reacts with the metal ion by parallel acid-independent and inverse-acid paths. The kinetic constants for both pathways have been calculated at five temperatures. Activation parameters have also been calculated. The results are consistent with an associative activation for Fe(H2O)63+ and dissociative activation for Fe(H2O)5(OH)2+. The differences in the results for the complexes of heptanediones studied are interpreted in terms of steric factors.

The reaction between horse-heart cytochrome c and ascorbic acid has been investigated in the pH range 5.5 – 7.1 and at 10.0 – 25.0 °C. The rate shows a first-order dependence on the concentration of cytochrome c, it increases in a non-linear way as the concentration of ascorbic acid increases, it increases markedly with increasing pH and, provided that the ionic strength of the medium is high enough, it fulfills the Arrhenius equation. The apparent activation energy increases as the pH of the solution increases. The results have been explained by means of a mechanism that includes the existence of an equilibrium between two forms (acidic and basic) of oxidized cytochrome c: cyt-H+ -Fe3+ + OH- cyt -Fe3+ + H2O, whose equilibrium constant is (6.7 ± 1.4). 108 at 25.0 °C, the acidic form being more reducible than the basic one. It is suggested that there is a linkage of hydrogenascorbate ion to both forms of cytochrome c previous to the redox reactions. Two possibilities for the oxidant-reductant linkage (binding and adsorption) are discussed in detail.

In a systematic search for supramolecular complexes involving all combinations of the cyclic polyethers 12-crown-4 (12C4), 15-crown-5 (15C 5), 18-crown-6 (18C 6) and dibenzo- 18-crown-6 (DB -18C6), and the geminal di- or trisulfones H2C(SO 2Me)2, H2C (SO2Et)2 and HC (SO2Me)3-n (SO2Et)n (n = 0 -3 ) , only the following four complexes could be isolated and unequivocally characterized by elemental analysis and 1H NMR spectroscopy: [(12C4){H2C (SO2Et)2}2] (3), [(18C6){H2C (S O2Me)2}] (4), [(DB -18C 6){H2C (SO2Et)2}] (5) and [(D B -18C 6)2{HC (SO2Me )(SO2Et)2}3] (6). The structure of 3 (triclinic, space group P1̄) consists of crystallographically centrosymmetric formula units, in which the disulfone molecules are bonded on each side of the ring by two C -H ··· O(crown) interactions originating from the central methylene group (H···O 213 pm) and from the methylene group of one EtSO2 moiety ( H ··· O 237 pm). Formula units related by translation are connected into parallel strands by a third type of reciprocal C -H ···O bond (H ···O 232 pm) between the second H atom of the central methylene group and a sulfonyl oxygen atom of the adjacent unit. The structure of 4 (monoclinic, space group C2/c) showed severe disorder of the crown ether and could not be refined satisfactorily. Compounds 5 and 6 crystallized as long and extremely thin fibres, indicative of linear-polymeric supramolecular structures; single crystals for X-ray crystallography were not available.
