An analysis of configurational effects on the 13C chemical shifts of bicyclic compounds of the 1,6-anhydrohexopyranose and 2,7-anhydroheptulopyranose type is presented. As with other saturated ring Systems, strong upfield shifts are found in association with an axial orientation of the substituents, although in this respect 13C nuclei of the anhydro ring appear to exhibit atypical behaviour. Deshielding changes characterize a syn-diaxial orientation of hydroxyl groups, and also of a hydroxyl group with respect to the bridgehead bonds. No appreciable effects of antiperiplanar hydroxyl groups on 13C chemical shifts have been detected. Possible interrelationships between 13C or 1H chemical shifts and steric interactions are discussed with reference to the relative stability of isomeric anhydrosugars and C—H bond polarization. Some characteristics of one-, two-, and three-bond 13C–1H coupling are described, and are shown to be of value in several instances for the assignment of 13C signals. The 1H-coupled signal for methylenic C-6 of 1,6-anhydrides is commonly non-first order, in contrast to the simpler pattern exhibited by methylenic C-1 of 2,7-anhydrides.

The pseudo-first order rate constant for the esterification of hexanoic acid (1) and five different N,N-dialkylamino alcohols (2) was determined in comparison to 1-hexanol (k = 0.67 · 10−5 s−1). The values range from 0.60 · 10−5 s−1 to 9.3 · 10−5 s−1. The data suggest a differing reactivity for structurally related compounds, which is directly correlated to the ability of the corresponding amino alcohol to activate the carboxylic acid by hydrogen bonding. A seven-membered transition state C≠ is postulated for reactions of 2-amino alcohols. The fastest reaction was observed for trans-2-(N,N-dimethylamino) cyclohexanol (2e), in which the amino and the hydroxyl groups are in an almost perfect synperiplanar 1,2-position. Attempts to further enhance the rate of the esterification by the addition of potential catalysts failed. Only Cu(OTf)2 (2.5 mol-%) allowed for a moderate rate increase from 7.5 · 10−5 s−1 (uncatalyzed) to 14.8 · 10−5 s−1 (catalyzed) in the esterification of hexanoic acid (1) with 2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethanol (2a).

The presence of a 17ß-hydroxyl group endows the simple androstane molecule with the ability to produce growth of the uterus, vagina, and prostate of the female hypophysectomized albino rat. It appears that hydrogen atoms at position 17 are of critical importance since related compounds with a ketone group at this site are inactive. Monofunctional steroids with a hydroxyl or a ketone group at position 3 likewise are devoid of activity. If a phenolic A-ring is present in monofunctional steroids the 17ß-hydroxyl group is not obligatory for growth. Proliferation of the uterus and vagina were found to follow the administration of 17-desoxyestradiol.

The hydroxyl stretching frequencies of some 2,4-cis and 2,4-trans flavan-4-ols, thiaflavan-4-ols, and related compounds have been measured in dilute carbon tetrachloride solution. Characteristic frequencies are observed at 3626�2 cm-1 (free hydroxyl), 3616�1, and 3597�2 cm-1. The 3616 and 3597 cm-1 bands are assigned to pseudo-axial and pseudo-equatorial hydroxyl groups respectively. Evidence is presented to show that the frequency shifts arise from differences in the interaction of the hydroxyl group with the π-electrons of the fused benzene ring, and that these flavans and thiaflavans exist in half- chair, rather than sofa conformations.

Deshielding Effect

Abstract The high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the DDT class of pesticides and related compounds are discussed, including a study of the resonances of the aromatic protons as they are affected by various substiluents. The CCl3 moiety on the α-carbon strongly deshields the ortho protons on the aromatic rings, and this deshielding effect is greatly enhanced by substitution of a chlorine ortho rather than para on the aromatic ring. These deshielding effects are explained by a consideration of the electronegativity of the substituents and the stereochemistry of the molecule. The chemical shifts and coupling constants are tabulated.

Several efforts have been dedicated to the development of lignin-based polyurethanes (PU) in recent years. The low and heterogeneous reactivity of lignin hydroxyl groups towards diisocyanates, arising from their highly complex chemical structure, limits the application of this biopolymer in PU synthesis. Besides the well-known differences in the reactivity of aliphatic and aromatic hydroxyl groups, experimental work in which the reactivity of both types of hydroxyl, especially the aromatic ones present in syringyl (S-unit), guaiacyl (G-unit), and p-hydroxyphenyl (H-unit) building units are considered and compared, is still lacking in the literature. In this work, the hydroxyl reactivity of two kraft lignin grades towards 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) was investigated. 31P NMR allowed the monitoring of the reactivity of each hydroxyl group in the lignin structure. FTIR spectra revealed the evolution of peaks related to hydroxyl consumption and urethane formation. These results might support new PU developments, including the use of unmodified lignin and the synthesis of MDI-functionalized biopolymers or prepolymers.

The preparation of bioactive polymeric molecules requires the attention of scientists as it has a potential function in biomedical applications. In the current study, functional substitution of alginate with a benzoyl group was prepared via coupling its hydroxyl group with benzoyl chloride. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicated the characteristic peaks of aromatic C=C in alginate derivative at 1431 cm−1. HNMR analysis demonstrated the aromatic protons at 7.5 ppm assigned to benzoyl groups attached to alginate hydroxyl groups. Wetting analysis showed a decrease in hydrophilicity in the new alginate derivative. Differential scanning calorimetry and thermal gravimetric analysis showed that the designed aromatic alginate derivative demonstrated higher thermo-stability than alginates. The aromatic alginate derivative displayed high anti-inflammatory properties compared to alginate. Finally, the in vitro antioxidant evaluation of the aromatic alginate derivative showed a significant increase in free radical scavenging activity compared to neat alginate against DPPH (2,2-diphenyll-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS free radicals. The obtained results proposed that the new alginate derivative could be employed for gene and drug delivery applications.

The preparation of 3α,12α-bisdimethylamino-5β-cholane dimethiodide, 3α,12α-bisdimethylamino-5β-cholane dimethiodide, 3α,12α- bisdimethylamino-24-nor-5β-cholanedimethiodide, and 3α,12α- bisdimethylamino-24-nor-5β-cholanediethiodide, from deoxycholic acid are described. During this work it was found that attempted copper- quinoline decarboxylation of dehydrocholic acid gives rise to lactol formation, and that what had previously been considered to be 3α,12α- dihydroxy-5β-cholane is a mixture of this compound and 12α,24- dihydroxy-5β-cholane. Comparable selectivity of attack by methanesulphonyl chloride and toluene-p-sulphonyl chloride occurs with various polyhydric alcohols derived from bile acids, as evidenced from the products of reduction of the sulphonates with lithium aluminium hydride. With both 5α- and 5β-cholane derivatives, a C 3 equatorial hydroxyl group exhibits comparable reactivity to the terminal primary hydroxyl group, generated from the bile acid carboxylic group, towards both sulphonyl chlorides. With axial hydroxyl groups at C 7 and C 12, toluene-p-sulphonate formation is much more difficult than methane- sulphonate formation. Reduction by means of lithium aluminium hydride of equatorial sulphonate esters at C 7 and C 12 gives rise to a methylene group, but the axial sulphonates under the same conditions give the axial alcohol. The same clear distinction between equatorial and axial sulphonate esters is not observed at C 3 and C 6, but 17α- methanesulphonyloxy-5α-androstane gives 5α-androstane and the 17β- ester gives 17β-hydroxy-5α-androstane. Reduction of 12-oximino groups in both 5α- and 5β-cholanes with sodium and ethanol, hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst, or lithium aluminium hydride gives solely the 12α-amino compound.
