  • Cationic Oligomerization of Ethylene Oxide
    Polymer Journal, Vol. 15, No. 12, pp 883-889 (1983) Cationic Oligomerization of Ethylene Oxide Shiro KOBAYASHI, Takatoshi KOBAYASHI, and Takeo SAEGUSA Department of Synthetic Chemistry, Faculty of Engineering, Kyoto University, Kyoto 606, Japan (Received July 29, 1983) ABSTRACT: The oligomerization of ethylene oxide (EO) was investigated with several cationic catalysts to find a method for producing cyclic oligomers (crown ethers). The reactions were monitored by NMR spectroscopy (1 H and 19F) and gas chromatography. The composition of oligomers was found to change during the reactions, and the production of 1,4-dioxane increased at the later stage of the reactions. This indicates that the composition of oligomers is kinetically controlled. The formation of higher cyclic oligomers was favored by the addition of tetrahydro­ pyran or 1,4-dioxane to the system catalyzed by an oxonium salt; the maximum yield of cyclic tetramer was 16.8%. The effect of alkali metal salts was also examined. A template effect was observed to increase the amount of cyclic oligomer production.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Biodegradation of 1,4-Dioxane in Co-Contaminant Mixtures A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering by Shu Zhang 2017 © Copyright by Shu Zhang 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Biodegradation of 1,4-Dioxane in Co-Contaminant Mixtures by Shu Zhang Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Shaily Mahendra, Chair Bioremediation is a promising technology to degrade or detoxify various organic and inorganic compounds in polluted environments by using microbiological activity, but it is sensitive to biogeochemical conditions as well as co-occuring compounds at impacted sites. This study focused on biodegradation of 1,4-dioxane, which is a carcinogen and an emerging water contaminant. 1,4-Dioxane was utilized as a stabilizer of chlorinated solvents, such as 1,1,1- trichloroethane (TCA); and it has been found widespread in groundwater. Many US states are implementing lower regulatory advisory levels based on the toxicity profile of 1,4-dioxane and the potential public health risks. However, the unique chemical properties of 1,4-dioxane, such as high water solubility, low Henry’s law constant, and importantly, the co-occurrence with chlorinated solvents and other contaminants, increase the challenges to efficiently cleanup 1,4- ii dioxane contaminations. The objectives of this research were to measure and model the effects of chlorinated solvents on 1,4-dioxane metabolic biodegradation by laboratory pure cultures, elucidate the mechanisms of the inhibition, and test the effects of mixtures of co-contaminants in samples collected from actual 1,4-dioxane contaminated sites.

Murphy * School of Chemistry, National University of Ireland, H91 TK33 Galway, Ireland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +353-91-492465 Received: 8 April 2020; Accepted: 25 May 2020; Published: 3 June 2020 Abstract: (2S,3R,6R)-2-[(R)-1-Hydroxyallyl]-4,4-dimethoxy-6-methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-3-ol was isolated in 18% after treating the glucose derived (5R,6S,7R)-5,6,7-tris[(triethylsilyl)oxy]nona-1, 8-dien-4-one with (1S)-(+)-10-camphorsulfonic acid (CSA). The one-pot formation of the title compound involved triethylsilyl (TES) removal, alkene isomerization, intramolecular conjugate addition and ketal formation. The compound was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, ESI mass spectrometry and IR spectroscopy. NMR spectroscopy was used to establish the product structure, including the conformation of its tetrahydropyran ring. Keywords: glucose; tetrahydropyran; deprotection; cyclisation; functionalized scaffold 1. Introduction Tetrahydropyran rings are found commonly in nature. Pyranoses, for example, are saccharides found in the ‘glycocalyx’, a carbohydrate-rich coating around cells, which is essential for interactions with biomolecules and important in numerous biological processes [1,2], including immunity, inflammation and infection [3,4]. The synthesis of mimetics of pyranoses (glycomimetics) is one strategy being investigated to give new therapies of various diseases, and this approach has received significant attention in recent years [5,6] with many structures investigated being tetrahydropyrans. The scaffolding role of pyranoses has also led to a body of work in the area of new scaffold development for medicinal chemistry [7].

White* Received (in XXX, XXX) Xth XXXXXXXXX 20XX, Accepted Xth XXXXXXXXX 20XX 5 DOI: 10.1039/b000000x The potent antitumor agent phorboxazole A was synthesized from six subunits comprising C1-C2 (115), C3-C8 (98), C9-C19 (74), C20-C32 (52), C33-C41 (84) and C42-C46 (85). Tetrahydropyrans B and C containing cis-2,6-disubstitution were fabricated via palladium(II)-mediated intramolecular alkoxycarbonylation which, in the case of tetrahydropyran C, was carried out with catalytic palladium(II) 10 and p-benzoquinone as the stoichiometric re-oxidant. Tetrahydropyran D was obtained by a stereoselective tin(IV)-catalyzed coupling of a C9 aldehyde with an allylsilane, and the C19-C20 connection was made using a completely stereoselective Wittig-Schlosser (E) olefination. Coupling of the oxazole C32 methyl substituent with the intact C33-C46 -lactone 3 was accompanied by elimination of the vinyl bromide to a terminal alkyne, but the C32-C33 linkage was implemented successfully with 83 15 and C33-C41 lactone 84. The C42-C46 segment of the side chain was then appended via Julia-Kocienski olefination. The macrolide portion of phorboxazole A was completed by means of an Ando-Still- Gennari intramolecular (Z)-selective olefination at C2-C3 which required placement of a (dimethoxyphosphinyl)acetate moiety at C24. Final deprotection led to phorboxazole A via a route in which the longest linear sequence is 37 steps and the overall yield is 0.36%.

  • Functional Genomics of the Bacterial Degradation of the Emerging Water Contaminants: 1,4-Dioxane and N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA)
    Functional genomics of the bacterial degradation of the emerging water contaminants: 1,4-dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) by Christopher Michael Sales A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering-Civil and Environmental Engineering in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Lisa Alvarez-Cohen, Chair Professor Kara L. Nelson Professor Mary K. Firestone Spring 2012 Functional genomics of the bacterial degradation of the emerging water contaminants: 1,4-dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) Copyright 2012 By Christopher Michael Sales Abstract Functional genomics of the bacterial degradation of the emerging water contaminants: 1,4-dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) by Christopher Michael Sales Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering - Civil & Environmental Engineering University of California, Berkeley Professor Lisa Alvarez-Cohen, Chair The emerging water contaminants 1,4-dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) are toxic and classified as probable human carcinogens. Both compounds are persistent in the environment and are highly mobile in groundwater plumes due to their hydrophilic nature. The major source of 1,4-dioxane is due to its use as a stabilizer in the chlorinated solvent 1,1,1-trichloroethane. The presence of NDMA as a water contaminant is related to the release of rocket fuels and its formation in the disinfection of water and wastewater. Prior studies have demonstrated that bacteria expressing monooxygenases are capable of degrading 1,4-dioxane and NDMA. While growth on 1,4-dioxane as a sole carbon and energy source has been reported in Pseudonocardia dioxanivorans CB1190 and Pseudonocardia benzenivorans B5, it is also co-metabolically degradable by a variety of monooxygenase-expressing strains.
