The alkaloid hitherto described as obscurine has been shown to consist of a mixture of two bases, α-obscurine (C17H26ON2) and β-obscurine (C17H24ON2). Dehydregenation of α-obscurine by heating with palladium-charcoal gives rise to 7-methylquinoline and 6-methyl-α-pyridone. The infrared absorption spectrum of the base shows absorption bands indicative of a carbony and of a secondary amino group, possibly in a cyclic lactam, while absorption in the ultraviolet indicates the presence of a double bond conjugated with the carbonyl group. β-Obscurine on the other hand contains an α-pyridone ring as shown by its infrared absorption spectrum and also by the similarity of its ultraviolet absorption spectrum with that of 6-methyl-α-pyridone.

Characterization of the infrared absorption spectrum of the solutions of fullerene C 60 with 2-cyclooctylamino-5-nitropyridine additive has been performed with the focus on possible bonding with the amino-group of the additive. No occurrence of such bonding was found at normal conditions. Also no change of optical absorption in visible region and optical limiting of fullerene due to chemical bonding with the additive was detected. The resulting optical properties of the mixture were simply a sum of the properties of the components for a molar proportion of the additive to fullerene approaching 200:1.
