ABSTRACT The click cycloaddition reaction of azides and alkynes affording 1,2,3-triazoles is a transformation widely used to obtain relevant products in chemical biology, medicinal chemistry, materials science and other fields. In this work, a set of Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NADESs) as “active” reaction media has been investigated in the copper-catalysed azide–alkyne cycloaddition reactions (CuAAc). The use of these green liquids as green and catalytic solvents has shown to improve the reaction effectiveness, giving excellent yields. The NADESs proved to be “active” in this transformation for the absence of added bases in all the performed reactions and in several cases for their reducing capabilities. The results were rationalized by DFT calculations which demonstrated the involvement of H-bonds between DESs and alkynes as well as a stabilization of copper catalytic intermediates.

Consider its structure to answer the following questions. H H CCCCCCCC H H3C C C C H H C H H 7. What is the molecular formula for this natural product? Answer: C13H10 8. What is the degree of unsaturation for this compound? Answer: We can arrive at the degree of unsaturation for a structure in two ways. Since we know that the degree of unsaturation is the number of rings and/or multiple bonds in a compound, we can simply count them. There are three double bonds (3 degrees) and three triple bonds (six degrees), so the degree of unsaturation is 9. We can verify this by using the molecular formula, C13H10, to calculate a degree of unsaturation. The saturated 13-carbon compound should have the base formula C13H28, so (28 - 10) ÷ 2 = 18 ÷ 2 = 9. 9. Assign E or Z configuration to each of the double bonds in the compound. Answer: H H E CCCCCCCCE H H3C C C C H H C H H 10.

Minto, Director ________________________________ John R. Grunwell, Reader ________________________________ John F. Sebastian, Reader ________________________________ Ann E. Hagerman, Reader ________________________________ Richard E. Lee, Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT INVESTIGATING THE BIOSYNTHESIS OF POLYACETYLENES: SYNTHESIS OF DEUTERATED LINOLEIC ACIDS & MECHANISM STUDIES OF DMDS ADDITION TO 1,4-ENYNES By Lizhi Zhu A wide range of polyacetylenic natural products possess antimicrobial, antitumor, and insecticidal properties. The biosyntheses of these natural products are widely distributed among fungi, algae, marine sponges, and higher plants. As details of the biosyntheses of these intriguing compounds remains scarce, it remains important to develop molecular probes and analytical methods to study polyacetylene secondary metabolism. An effective pathway to prepare selectively deuterium-labeled linoleic acids was developed. By this Pd-catalyzed method, deuterium can be easily introduced into the vinyl position providing deuterolinoleates with very high isotopic purity. This method also provides a general route for the construction of 1,4-diene derivatives with different chain lengths and 1,4-diene locations. Linoleic acid derivatives (12-d, 13-d and 16,16,17,17,18,18,18-d7) were synthesized according to this method. A stereoselective synthesis of methyl (14Z)- and (14E)-dehydrocrepenynate was achieved in five to six steps that employed Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions to construct the double bonds between C14 and C15. Compared with earlier methods, the improved syntheses are more convenient (no spinning band distillations or GLC separation of diastereomers were necessary) and higher Z/E ratios were obtained.

  • Transformation of Phenanthrene by Mycobacterium Sp. ELW1 and the Formation of Toxic Metabolites
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Jill E. Schrlau for the degree of Master of Science in Environmental Engineering presented on September 20, 2016. Title: Transformation of Phenanthrene by Mycobacterium sp. ELW1 and the Formation of Toxic Metabolites. Abstract approved: _____________________________________________________________________ Lewis Semprini Staci Simonich The ability of Mycobacterium sp. ELW1, a novel microbe capable of alkene oxidation, to co-metabolize phenanthrene (PHE) was studied. ELW1 was able to completely co-metabolize PHE, at different concentrations below its water solubility limit, in an aqueous environment. The alkene monooxygenases in ELW1, used to initiate oxidation of PHE, were effectively inhibited by 1-octyne despite some PHE transformation observed. PHE metabolites consisted of only hydroxyphenanthrenes (OHPHEs) with trans-9,10-dihydroxy-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene (trans-9,10-PHE), the primary product, comprising more than 90% of the total metabolites formed in both PHE-exposed cells and 1-octyne controls. Mass balance was estimated by summing the zero-order formation rates of OHPHE metabolites and comparing these to the zero-order transformation rates PHE in PHE-exposed cells. The transformation rates of PHE and were in good agreement with the formation rates of the metabolites. PHE transformation followed first-order rates that, when normalized by biomass, were in the range of those estimated by the ratio of the Michaelis-Menten kinetic variables of maximum transformation rate (kmax) to the half-saturation constant (KS). Estimated values for kmax to KS obtained through both non-linear and linearization methods resulted in kmax/KS estimates that were a factor of ~3 lower compared to experimental values.

Crumrine - 125 - REACTIONS OF ALKYL ETHERS INVOLVING n-COMPLEXES ON A REACTION PATHWAY Reported by Jerome T. Adams February 2k 1972 The n-complex (l) has been described as an intermediate on the reaction pathway for electrophilic aromatic substitution and acid catalyzed rearrange- ment of alkyl aryl ethers along with sigma (2) and pi (3) type intermediates. 1 ' 2 +xR Physical evidence for the existence of n-complexes of alkyl aryl ethers was found in the observation of methyl phenyl ononium ions by nmr 3 and ir observation of n-complexes of anisole with phenol.
