Feiertag February 10, 1964 Introduction , --The deamination of aliphatic amines has been an area of, intense chemical interest for some time- In recent years more information about the reaction has been obtained from a number of aliphatic systems „ It is the purpose of this ab- stract to report the results of several investigations into the nature of the inter- mediates involved in deamination. A general review of deamination has appeared (i), as well as more specific re- views on deaminations involving ring expansion (Demjanov reaction) (2) , bicyclic sys- an<i tems (3) ? the cyclopropylcarbinyl system (4,5.96,7), substituted ethylamines (8). Deamination of Sub s tituted Ethyl and Propyl Amines . --Collins and coworkers have studied the deaminations of a number of substituted ethyl and propyl amines and amino alcohols o These studies have been carried out using amines labeled with carbon-l4, optically active amines, and optically active carbon-Ik labeled amines. In every case extensive rearrangement took place,. Collins* earlier work, which has been re- viewed (8), indicated that these rearrangements did not take place through bridged phenonium ionsc Instead, a mechanism in which open carbonium ions whose formation was controlled by the ground state conformations of the molecules was used to explain the observed results . A kinetic treatment of the data gave support to this mechanism (9). A number of additional experiments were designed to test the hypothesis that only open carbonium ions are involved in these deaminations „ The results support the 14 earlier conclusions. Deaminations of (+) and (-) -1,2,2 ~triphenylethyl-l-C -amine (i) were carried out in water to which a small amount of acetic acid had been added at temperatures ranging from -2° to 3606 (10). The major product was 1,2,2-tri- phenylethanol (II); the remainder (about 10$) was composed of 1,2,2-triphenylethyl acetate and 1,1,2-triphenylethylene. In every case there was net retention of eon- Ph2CHCHPh •» Ph2CHCHPh + Ph2CHCHPh + Ph2(>CHPh I I I NH2 OH OAc I II figuration with some racemization, and rearrangement of the C14 label. The carbinols were resolved into samples of completely retained configuration and into racemic mix- tures o Each sample was then oxidized to benzophenone which was assayed, for radio- activityo This gave the activity at C.2 and therefore the percent rearrangement of 14 14 C . From the percent C rearrangement in the optically active carbinol of retained 14 configuration and that i.n the racemic mixture, the percent C rearrangement in the carbinol of inverted configuration may be calculated. The results are given in Table 1.

If It is assumed that the amine exists primarily in its most- stable conformation ( III) , the above results may be explained on the basis of classical open carbonium ions. The reaction mechanism shown in Figure 2 was proposed. In this mechanism, none of the intermediate H^S-^Th ions are subject to rearward attack, the ionic site being protected Fh by the phenyl group on the adjacent carbon atom. A kinetic treatment III of the above mechanism ( 11.) led to a series of equations which were solved for the mole fractions of the products. The observed and calculated mole fractions were in good agreement, indicating the compatibility of this mechanism with the experimental results. -Rearranged (+) -Unrearranged Ph Carbinol Carbinol Ph H Hi H r H Hi 1* X® */ Vc c-pn £ C-—Hi l kph Hi H Ph ^* Fn .'""t^-^ -^kph k2 \ Hi H ( -) -Unrearranged ( -) -Unrearranged Carbinol Carbinol Figure 2 Additional experiments were carried out in order to further test the validity of the above conclusions. Optically active erythro-l-amino-l,2-diphenyl-2-propanol- 14 1-phenyl-C (IV)(12), erythro- and threo -l-amino-l~phenyl-2-p-tolyl-2-propanoI-2- C14 (V)(13); erythro - and threo -l-amino-l-phenyl-2-p-methoxyphenyl-2-propanol (VI), and erythro - and threo-l-amino-l-phenyl-2-o-tolylpropanol (VIl)(l4) were prepared p2 IV.

The products were the corresponding ketones ( VTII) in yields of 7C-9£$° If bridged ions are important, it would be ex- pected that the electron donating ability of the p-methoxy and £-methyl groups would cause a larger amou iging for ions from V and VI Ar than for the corresponding ion from IV* This would cause Hi B a greater amount of inversion in the case of the er^rthro ttl isomerso If open classics ionium Ions arising from the most stable ground, state conformer are importer At VIII erythro-IV, -V and -VI should aU give the same amount of inversion, and threo- -7 and -VI should give a greater amount of retention than the corresponding erythro isomers (Figure 5) • Moreover., "' ^Z!*i£2- and- ^Eoo-VII , having different steric requirements, should give pro- ducts in ratios different from those of the other three. Ejcperimentally it was found that in the deaminations of erjrthrc-IV, -V, and -VI there was 73f> y fi&, and 77$ Inversion, respectively. Deamlnation of threo-V and -VI led to products with 57$ and ?9$ retention, respectively. In contrast, erythi ni gave 96$ inversion and threo -VTI, k^f> retention. These results were explained by the mechanisms shown in Figure 3 In which open carbonium ions arising from the most stable ground-state con- formers of the molecules are the intermediates. In the case of vl.< the bulky o-tolyj group makes rotation about the carbon -carbon bond difficult in the intermediate ions, leading to greater amounts of inversion in the erythro case. Deamlnation of threo VII leads to anomalous results when discussed in terms of this mechanism. NH2 CHs Fh H.

This was reduced to give (+)-Xa end (-)-Xb, which are both optical isomers and isotope position isomers. The amine (+) Xa was then subjected to deamlnation^ yielding the alcohols erythro- and three -XI „ The products were degraded and counted to determine the position of the isotope la- beling.

ABRASH Department of Chemistry, Carlsberg Laboratory Gamle Carlsbergvej 10 - DK-2500 Copenhagen, Valby~ 1) Current address: Department of Chemistry, California State University at Northridge, Northridge, California 91324, USA Key words: 4,6-di (2-phenyl-2-propyl) pyrogallol, consecutive reactions, oxidation, oxygen, pH, quinone, semiquinone, spectra Two colored extinction bands, one with ~'max near 520 nm and the other near 770 nm, form and decay during air oxidations of 4,6-di(2-phenyl-2-propyl)pyrogallol in alkaline methanol. The 770 nm band appears to be due to the semiquinone monoanion while the extinction near 500 nm is thought to be due to both the semiquinone and 3-hydroxy-o-quinone. Although the rates of formation and decay of the two bands are indistinguishable in the presence of excess dissolved oxygen, the 770 nm band disappears slightly before the 500 nm extinction when the pyrogallol reactant is initially in excess of the dissolved oxygen. Except at high methoxide concentrations, the kinetics indicate a system of two consecutive reactions with pseudo first-order rate constants k~ and k 2. The pH' dependence of k~ indicates that the neutral pyrogallol, its monoanion and dianion all react, the rate increasing with the negative charge of the species. The k2/k~ ratio is constant at 5 from pH' 11 to 16. Extinction coefficients at both wavelengths increase with pH'. The 770 nm extinction disappears immediately after acidification while the 500 nm extinction decays at a rate consistent with oxidation.

Radical transfer can occur either by electron transfer (ET) or proton coupled electron transfer (PCET), depending on the pH. Reversible conformational changes in the surrounding protein matrix may control reactivity of radical intermediates. De novo designed Peptide A is a synthetic 18 amino-acid β-hairpin, which contains a single tyrosine (Y5) and carries out a kinetically significant PCET reaction between Y5 and a cross-strand histidine (H14). In Peptide A, amide II’ (CN) changes are observed in the UV resonance Raman (UVRR) spectrum, associated with tyrosine ET and PCET; these bands were attributed previously to a reversible change in secondary structure. Here, we use molecular dynamics simulations to define this conformational change in Peptide A and its H14-to-cyclohexylalanine variant, Peptide C. Three different Y5 charge states, tyrosine (YH), tyrosinate (Y–), and neutral tyrosyl radical (Y•), are considered. The simulations show that Peptide A-YH and A-Y– retain secondary structure and noncovalent interactions, whereas A-Y• is unstable.

  • Natural Sulfide Minerals As Electrode Materials for Electrochemical Analysis in Dipolar Aprotic Solvents
    Int. J. Electrochem. Sci., 13 (2018) 11113 – 11135, doi: 10.20964/2018.11.74 International Journal of ELECTROCHEMICAL SCIENCE www.electrochemsci.org Review Natural Sulfide Minerals as Electrode Materials for Electrochemical Analysis in Dipolar Aprotic Solvents Zorka Stanić University of Kragujevac, Faculty of Science, Department of Chemistry, R. Domanović 12, P.O. Box 60, 34000 Kragujevac, Serbia E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Received: 20 August 2018 / Accepted: 19 September 2018 / Published: 1 October 2018 Dipolar aprotic solvents are compounds with the relative permittivity higher than 15 and a dipole moment greater than 2 D. Solvents of this type are applied in the field of kinetic, catalytic and electrochemical studies. Many organic molecules with high molecular weight are readily dissolved in dipolar aprotic solvents. These solvents have relatively high pKS and wide-area working potential which allows the determination of a large number of compounds in them. This review was written to provide the insight of electrochemistry in non-aqueous solutions, primarily based on the characterization and application of some solid-state sensors in a non-aqueous environment. Firstly, it highlights the results obtained over many years of investigation in our laboratory with the aim to contribute to the development of pure and applied chemistry in non-aqueous solutions. The review is divided into two main parts. The first part contains a discussion of solvent properties which further basically determine their application in electrochemistry. Second part mainly deals with the characteristics and use of the natural sulfide minerals (pyrite, chalcopyrite, and arsenopyrite) as electrochemical sensors in non-aqueous solutions for different purposes.

The formation of this compound both under anhydrous conditions and in the presence of water shows Smith's mechanism for the kotonic Schmidt reaction, which involves dehydration to a Beckmann-type intermediate and subsequent rehydration, to be unlikely.
