On the oxidation of dibenzo[fg,ij]pentaphene and dinaphtho[2,1,8,7-defg:2',1',8',7'-ijkl]pentaphene dianions

Received 6 April 1999)
The dianion of dibenzoSfg,ijCpentaphene has recently been synthesized and shown to react with oxygen, forming the 15,16-dioxo derivative in nearly quantitative yield. Oxidation of the dianion of dinaphtho[2,1,8,7-defg:2',1',8',7'-ijkl]pentaphene under similar conditions does not result in any dioxo product. It is shown that these findings are a consequence of the different modes of cyclic conjugation in the two dianions. Cyclic conjugation in the mentioned two dianions, as well as in a number of other structurally related benzenoid dianions is assessed by means of a quantum-chemical method, developed earlier by the author.
Key words: dianions, benzenoid hydrocarbons, cyclic conjugaiton.

(Received 16 October 1998)
Employing tools of combinatorial chemistry, an original methodological approach has been developed and applied for the design and synthesis of a small library of peptide-like compounds, prospective growth hormone (GH) secretagogues. For this purpose seven building blocks of tBoc- and Fmoc-protected amino acids was used. In this way, a small, tripeptoid library on polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether 5000 (PEG 5000) as a soluble support was obtained. The library was screened by a new, simple system, based on polyclonal rabbit antiserum raised against "GH secretagogue pharmacophore" of a known growth hormone secretagogue GHRP-6 (Hexarelin®) and the most promising GH secretagogue candidate was selected.
Key words: secretagogue, growth hormone, combinatorial chemistry.

(Received 19 January, revised 30 March 1999)
In a previous publicaitons from the authors' laboratotry a method was developed to predict the structure and properties of low density polyethylene (PE-LD) that could be obtained over a very wide range of polymerization conditions. The method was proved using experimental data from the literature. However, some shortcomings of the method were noticed. The aim of this work was to overcome the shortcomings and to enable the better manipulation of experimental data using a computer. A computer program has been developed to establish the mathematical relationships between ethylene entropy and the structural parameters and density of Pe-LD. All available experimental data (more than 300 experimental points) have elaborated and confirmed our mathematical models and our theoretical predictions.
Key words: low density polyethylene, structure, properties, mathematical model.

(Received 18 February 1999)
Natural vanadyl (VO2+)-deoxophylloerythroetioporphyrins (DPEP) have been shown to be capable of reacting and quantitatively incorporating into immature kerogen model materials (torbanite, lignites, subbituminous coal and immature lacustrine kerogen) at 200°C for 72 h in the absence/presence of air. Electron spin resonance was used to monitor the incorporation of VO2+-DPEP into the kerogen models. The products of the incorporation resemble natural kerogen enriched with VO2+. The simulation experiments described in this paper clearly show that the kerogen VO2+-P may originate from VO2+-DPEP incorporation into the kerogen macromolecular structures during catagenesis.
Key words: vanadyl porphyrins, kerogen, electron spin resonance.

A spectrophotometric study of the reaction of copigmentation of malvin and tannic acid

Faculty of Physical Chemistry, University of Belgrade, Studentski trg 16, P.O.Box 137, YU-11000 Belgrade, Yugoslavia

(Received 9 December 1998, revised 20 April 1999)
The reaction of copigmentation of malvidin 3,5-diglucoside and tannic acid of the ester type was studied. The interactions of these molecules were observed via UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy. It was established that the pH of the medium, the concentration of the copigmentating molecules, and the temperature affect the copigmentation process. The calculated equilibrium constant of the reaction of pH 3.00 is K = 226.9, and at pH 3.65 it is K = 277.0. The change of the Gibbs free energy in pH 3.00 buffer is DG = -13.4 kJ/mol, and in pH 3.65 buffer it is DG = -13.9 kJ/mol. The stoichiometric ratio of the components in the copigment is 1:1, at both pH values. It is evident from the calculated values of the thermodynamic functions that the process is thermodynamically favorable in the lower temperature range. Temperature appears as the basic parameter of the thermodynamic feasability of the process, since the copigmentation process is exothermic ( DHpH=3.00 = - 41.6 kJ/mol and  DHpH=3.65 = - 41.6 kJ/mol) and proceeds with a decrease in entropy ( DSpH=3.00 = - 94.4 J/mol K and  DSpH=3.65 = -92.7 J/mol K).
Key words: malvin, tannic acid, copigmentation, UV-VIS spectra.

(Received 16 February 1999)
In order to investigate the differences in the stability of the isomorphous pyridine saccharinates [Co(H2O)4(C5H5N)2](C7H4NO3S)2·H2O and [Ni(H2O)4(C5H5N)2[ (C7H4NO3S)2·4H2O, their thermal behavior (TG, DTG and DTA curves) from ambient temperature up to 1000°C in a static air atmosphere was studied. For comparative purposes, the thermoanalytical curves of [Cu(H2O)(C5H5N)2(C7H4NO3S)2] were recorded as well. The decomposition pathways and the stability of the compounds are interpreted in the terms of the structural data. A possible mechanism for the decomposition of the saccharinato ion/ligand in an oxidizing atmosphere is proposed. The infrared spectral characteristics of the complexes are also discussed.
Key words: thermal decomposition, pyridine complexes, saccharinates, structure, infrared spectra.

(Received 4 November 1998, revised 1 April 1999)
Metal complexes of some divalent metal ions (Co, Ni, Cu and Zn) with 3-(a-acetylethylidenehydrazino)-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine (AHDT) as a Schiff-base have been investigated potentiometrically and spectrophotometrically and found to have the stoichiometric formulae 1:1 and 1:2 (M:L). The formation constants of the proton-ligand and metal-ligand complexes have been determined potentiometrically at different temperatures (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50°C) at an ionic strength of 0.1 M KNO3 in 75% (v/v) dioxane-water solution. The standard thermodynamic parameters, viz. DG°, DH°, and DS°, for the proton-ligand and the stepwise metal-ligand complexes have been evaluated.
Key words: thermodynamic parameters; Schiff-base; metal(II)-complexes; cobalt(II)-complexes; nickel(II)-complexes; copper(II)-complexes; Zn(II)-complexes; formation constant; potentiometry and spectroscopy.

(Received 15 January, revised 28 March 1999)
Single crystals of LiNbO3 were grown by the Czochralski technique in an air atmosphere. The critical diameter and the critical rate of rotation were calculated. X-Ray measurements of the powder were carried out to obtain the lattice parameters. The optical constants were calculated by Kramers-Kronig analysis of reflectance data. The optical properties of LiNbO3 single crystals were studied for samples grown in an air atmosphere to investigate the influence of air on the optical properties of the formed crystals. A peak due to OH- gtroups appears in the transmission spectrum at 3385 cm-1. It was still present after annealing in an air atmosphere at temperature up to 873 K, but it was no longer detectable after annealing at 1473 K in an electric field. Thick films of the high-temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7 (Ag) were obtained on plates of LiNbO3 single crystals. The obtained results are discussed and compared with published data.
Key words: single crystals, Czochralski technique, lithium niobate, critical rotation rate, critical crystal diameter, optical properties.
