The synthesis of a series of 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]quinoxalines (flavazoles) by acylation, alkylation, halogenation, and aminomethylation of the parent compound is reported and their structure is investigated by H-1, C-13 and N-15 NMR spectroscopy. The restricted rotation about the partial C, N double bond of the N-acyl derivatives 7-10 is studied by dynamic NMR spectroscopy and the barriers to rotation are determined. In order to assign unequivocally the 15 N chemical shifts of N-4 and N-9, in case of 3-substituted flavazoles, exemplary the H-1, C-13, and N-15 NMR chemical shifts of 34, 35, and 39 are also theoretically calculated by quantum chemical methods [ab initio at different levels of theory (HF/6-3G* and B3LYP/6-31G*)].

Electron beam irradiation of poly(vinyl methyl ether) films : 1. Synthesis and film topography
(2005)
Temperature-sensitive hydrogel layers on silicon (Si) substrates were synthesized by electron beam irradiation of spin-coated poly(vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) films. The influences of the used solvent, the polymer concentration, and the spinning velocity on the homogeneity and the thickness of the PVME film were investigated. In the range of concentration c(p) = 1-15 wt% PVME in ethanol solution, homogeneous films with a thickness between d = 50 nm and 1.7 mu m were obtained. The films were cross-linked by electron beam irradiation under inert atmosphere and analyzed by sol-gel- analysis. The results were compared with bulkgels formed by electron beam irradiation of PVME in the dry state. The film topography was analyzed by high-resolution field emission scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. An islandlike structure in the dry, swollen, and shrunken state of the hydrogel films was observed
A novel method to prepare ultrathin, freestanding polyelectrolyte films in pores, without the need of sacrificial precursor coatings, has been developed (see Figure). The freestanding films are stable under ambient conditions and suited for additional electrostatic self-assembly or surface modification. They can be specifically decomposed, whereas after thermal crosslinking, resistant films are obtained
Heterocyclization of (Z)-5-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methyl-4-oxothiazolidines, bearing electron-withdrawing groups conjugated to an exocyclic double bond at C(2)-position, afforded under reductive conditions, cis-tetrahydroftiro[2,3- d]thiazole derivatives. The reactions of these functionalized push-pull beta-enamines occur in a stereocontrolled fashion via activated vinylogous N-methyliminium ions, which are trapped by an internal hydroxyethyl group
A new synthesis of 9 alpha-hydroxy-alpha-agarofuran (6 alpha) is described, using a microbiological hydroxylation alpha-agarofuran (5) as the key reaction. The stereochemistry of the biohydroxylation was determined on the basis of a NOESY-experiment and GIAO calculations at the B3LYP/cc-pVDZ level. A strong gamma-effect was observed at C15 of the agarofuran ring which was correctly predicted by the GIAO-B3LYP calculations
Intrinsic fluorescence quenching of humic substances (HS) and the sensitization of Ln(3+) luminescence (Ln3+ Tb3+, Eu3+) in HS complexes were investigated. Both measurements yielded complementary information on the complexation of metals by HS. Large differences between fulvic acids(FA)and humic acids (HA) were found. From time-resolved luminescence measurements it is concluded that a combination of energy transfer and energy back transfer between HS and Ln(3+) is responsible for the observed luminescence decay characteristics. In the case of Eu3+, an additional participation of charge-transfer states is suggested. A new concept for the evaluation of the sensitized luminescence decays of Ln(3+) was adapted
