The ionization constants of the conjugated acids BH+ of purine, adenine, 9-methyladenine, adenosine, guanine, and hypoxanthine, and of the related compounds imidazole, N-methylimidazole, benzimidazole, and 4-amino-2,6-dimethylpyrimidine have been determined potentiometrically in Me2SO. The heats of solution and the heats of protonation of most of these bases have been obtained by calorimetry. Some additional determinations were carried out in water so that thermodynamic data in Me2SO and in water could be compared. Our discussion of the solvent effect on these data is largely based on a consideration of the enthalpies of transfer of B and BH+ and emphasizes the contrasting H-bonding properties of the solvents and of the functional groups on the solutes B and BH+.

The phase relations in the ternary system Bi/Te/O have been determined in previous studies by solid state reactions. Thermodynamical data have now been obtained for the pertinent equilibria. The heats of solution of Bi2O3, Bi12TeO20, Bi10Te2O19, Bi16Te5O34, Bi2TeO5, Bi2Te2O7, Bi2Te4O11 and TeCl4 were determined in 4N HCl. From these the enthalpies of formation of bismuth tellurites at 298 K have been derived:⊿H°b (Bi12TeO20, f, 298) = -901,6 ± 8 kcal/mol,⊿H°b (Bi10Te2O19, f, 298) = -856,1 ± 9 kcal/mol,⊿H°b (Bi16Te5O34, f, 298) = -1519,5 ± 17 kcal/mol,⊿H°b (Bi2TeO5, f, 298)= -222,8 ± 3 kcal/mol,⊿H°b (Bi2Te2O7, f, 298)= -299,4 ± 4 kcal/mol,⊿H°b (Bi2Te4O11, f, 298)= -448,2 ± 7 kcal/mol.

An efficient procedure to deoxygenate hydroxy substituted flavonoids, isoflavonoids and related compounds via their trifluoromethanesulfonates is presented. Their reduction with formic acid in the presence of a catalytic amount of palladium acetate, triethylamine and 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphanyl) propane (dppp) in DMF results in their des-hydroxy derivatives without affecting other functional groups.

The ionization constants and ultraviolet spectra of cytosine, of its appropriately methylated derivatives, and of related compounds are used to indicate that its pre- dominant tautomeric form in aqueous solution is 4-amino-1,2-dihydro-2-oxopyrimidine. This is in sharp contrast to its recent formulation as a zwitterion on the grounds of its nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum.
