Corosin (8; R = R1 = H) has been reisolated through a modified procedure, as its acetate (8; R=H, R1 = Ac), in an overall yield of 0.2% from jute roots. On pyrolysis in vacuo, corosin gave pyro corosin (1a; R1 = OH, R2= COOH, R3 = R5 = H, R4 = R6 = Me), shown to have a 12:18 (17) di-ene formed by elimination of the 19-OH and the angular C-28 carboxyl in the molecule. On rearrangement with concentrated sulphuric acid in acetic acid, corosin acetate gave corosin anhydro lactone acetate (7; R1 = Ac, R = H), having a 13(18) double bond and a lactone bridge between the 28-carboxyl and the 20-carbon atom. Corosin acetate ester (8; R = Me, R 1 = Ac), on treatment with sulphuric-acetic acid reagent, gave as the main product anhydro corosin acetate ester (7; R = Me, R1= A c), with a 12:18(19)-diene. The structure of corosin is proposed to be urs-12-ene-2α, 3β, 19α-trihydroxy-24, 28-dioic acid (8; R = R1= H).

When cellulose acetate sulphate is dissolved in acetone the hydrolysis of the sulphate ester is rapid compared with that of the acetate ester. In 70% acetone the relative rates are reversed. Hydrolysis of the sulphate ester in acetone is greatly affected by the temperature. At 25 °C. or greater the hydrolysis is complete after 24 hr. A potentiometric titration method has been developed for the estimation of sulphuric acid in the presence of smaller amounts of acetic acid.

The present work is aimed to determine the chemical constituents in Baliospermum montanum methanolic extracts. An in vitro regenerated procedure was developed for the induction of callus from stem explant cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium fortified with various concentration and permutations of 2, 4-dichloro phenoxy acetic acid, 1-naphthalene acetic acid, 6-benzyl amino purine and gibberellic acid. FTIR & GC-MS analysis was done according to standard procedure. The quantitative estimation of β-sitosterol was done by HPLC method. Maximum fresh and dry weight of callus was estimated in the combination of GA3 (0.5 mg/L) + NAA (2 mg/L) compared to other concentration. The FTIR analysis showed various functional compounds with different characteristic peak values in the extracts. Major bioactive constituents were recognized in the GC-MS analysis. Root extract revealed the existence of 1-hexadecanol, pentanoic acid, 2-(aminooxy)- and 1-hexacosanol. Leaf extract showed the presence of propanoic acid, 2-oxo-, trimethylsilyl ester, 9,12-octadecadienoic acid (z,z)-, trimethylsilyl ester, docosane, 1,22-dibromo- and pentatriacontane. Stem and stem derived callus exhibit the presence of 1,6,3,4-dihydro-2-deoxy-beta-d-lyxo-hexopyranose, n-hexadecanoic acid and pentanoic acid, 2-(aminooxy). The methanolic extract of leaf exhibited 0.2149 % of β-sitosterol content. There were no peaks observed in the root, stem and stem derived callus. Further studies are necessary for the isolation and characterization of bioactive compounds from B. montanum.

1,3-Bis(4-nitrophenyl)-1-butene was prepared by nitration of 1,3-diphenyl-1-butene (I) with fuming nitric acid in acetic acid. The double bond in I was protected by addition of bromine which was eliminated after the nitration. The UV, IR and 1H- spectra of the synthesized compounds are interpreted.

The reaction of diol I and diacetate IIwith one mole of bromine gives rise, depending on conditions, to isomeric dienes III-V and IX or to derivatives substituted in position 21 (VII, VIII). On reaction of diacetate II with two moles of bromine in acetic acid 21,22-disubstituted compounds XI and XII were obtained. Diene V is the intermediate in the formation of dienes IV and IX and derivatives XI and XII. Epoxidation of the 18(19)-double bond in compounds I and II takes place from the β-side and leads for epoxides XIV and XV.

Sodium hydroxide reacts with α -(4-nitrobenzylthio)-acetic acid in aqueous-dioxane media to give 4,4'-diformylazoxybenzene as the main product besides 4,4'-dicarboxyazoxybenzene and a nitrone acid. This reaction was kinetically studied in presence of excess of alkali in different dioxane-water media at different temperatures. It started by a fast reversible a-proton abstraction step followed by two consecutive irreversible first-order steps forming two intermediates (α -hydroxy, 4-nitrosobenzylthio)-acetic acid and 4-nitrosobenzaldehyde. The latter underwent a Cannizzaro's reaction, the products of which changed in the reaction medium into 4,4'-diformylazoxybenzene and 4,4'-dicarboxyazoxybenzene. The rate constants and the thermodynamic parameters of the two consecutive steps were calculated and discussed. A mechanism was put forward for the formation of the nitrone acid.Other six 4-nitrobenzyl, aryl sulphides were qualitatively studied and they gave mainly 4,4'-diformylazoxybenzene beside 4,4'-dicarboxyazoxybenzene or its corresponding azo acid.

Abstract Reduction of MentPBr2M(CO)5 1 (M = Cr, W) with magnesium in THF yields the diphos­phene complex (CO)5M(Ment)P=P(Ment)M(CO)5 2 as the main product. In addition, a phosphinidene complex, (CO)5M(Ment)PM(CO)5 (3) is also formed. The latter is obtained in larger amounts, if the reaction is carried out in the presence of M(CO)5THF. The proposed structures are confirmed by NMR and UV data as well as - in the case of the chromium compounds (2a, 3a) - by crystal structure analysis. Compound 2a is obtained only as the frans-isomer. The P-P distance in 2a (204.0 pm) indicates a double bond which does not participate in the complex formation. The P-Cr distance in 3a (average: 230.3 pm) is within the low est range found for this element combination. Reaction of 2a with LiAlH4 yields the diphosphane complex (CO)5CrMent(H)P-P(H)MentCr(CO)5 4 as a mixture of “meso” and “rac” diastereomers.

Abstract A method using column partition chromatographic separation has been developed for the determination of nitroglycerin in soluble, sublingual glyceryl trinitrate tablets. A mixture of the phenoldisulfonic acid reagent and acetic acid is used to extract the nitroglycerin from the eluate. Quantitative results are obtained by measuring the color of the nitrated phenoldisulfonic acid that is formed. Results by the method are in agreement with those obtained by the USP distillation method and an infrared assay.
