(Received 16 May, revised 26 August 2002)
An efficient synthesis of methyl 4-[(1-oxopropyl)phenylamino]piperidine-4-carboxylate (7) has been developed, starting from 1-benzylpiperidin-4-one (1). The compound is a key intermediate in the synthesis of new generation, highly active narcotic analgesics, such as remifintanil, as well as the novel classes of fentanyl analogues. An optimized Strecker-type condensation of piperidone 1 with aniline and HCN yielded the anilino-nitrile 2(»90 %) which, upon selective hydrolysis with conc.H2SO4, gave the anilino-amide 3.After vigorous basic hydrolysis of 3, followed by acidification and successive treatment with SOCl2and MeOH, the anilino-ester 5 was obtained (40–45 %, in 3 steps). N-Acylation of 5 with propionyl chloride yielded the anilido-ester6(70–80 %). In the final step, the catalytic N-debenzylation of6was examined under various conditions and optimized to yield 7 in near quantitative yields.

Keywords: optimized Strecker reaction, functionalized piperidines, fentanyl-type central analgesics.

Department of Chemistry, Gandhigram Rural Institute (Deemed University), Gandhigram 624 302, India, E-mail: drkpelango@rediffmail.com

(Received 15 May, revised 3 September 2002)
The kinetics of the oxidation of benzaldehyde and para-substituted benzaldehydes by quinolinium chlorochromate in water-dimethylformamide mixtures has been studied under pseudo-first-order conditions at 25±0.2°C. The operation of non-specific and specific solvent-solute interactions was explored by correlating the rate data with solvent parameters through a correlation analysis technique. Both electron-releasing and electron-withdrawing substitutents enhance the rate of oxidation and the Hammett plot shows a break in the reactivity order indicating the applicability of a dual mechanism.

Keywords: kinetics, solvent effect, structural effect, benzaldehyde, oxidation.

(Received 23 April 2002)
Rat brain Na,K-ATPase partially purified by SDS from synaptic plasma membranes (SPM) was immobilized by adsorption on nitrocellulose (NC), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and glass fiber (GF) membranes. Partial SDS solubilization increased the enzyme activity by 40 %. With regard to the preservation of the enzyme activity, nitrocellulose was shown to be the optimal support for the immobilization. The enzyme showed the highest percentage activity (14 %) after 30 min of SPM adsorption, at 20°C under the vaccum, with 25 mg of proteins per NC disc filter. In addition, adsorption on NC stabilizes the Na,K-ATPase, since the activity was substantial 72 h after adsorption at 20°C. After adsorption, the sensitivity of the enzyme to HgCl2and CdCll2 inhibition was higher. The results show that immobilized Na,K-ATPase SPM can be used as a practical model for the detection of metal ions in different samples.

Keywords: Na,K-ATPase, synaptic plasma membranes, immobilization, inhibition, cadmium, mercury.

Department of Chemistry, University of Belgrade, Studentski trg 12-16, P. O. Box 158, YU-11001 Belgrade, Yugoslavia, E-mail address: vniketic@chem.bg.ac.yu

(Received 10 July 2002)
In this work GPI binding to membrane proteins from erythrocytes of insulinoma patients for whom prolonged hyperinsulinism and hypoglycemia were characteristic, as well as from normal erythrocytes incubated with supraphysiological concentrations of insulin were analyzed. In the RBCs from insulinoma patients, covalent GPI binding to red cell membrane proteins in the spectrin/ankyrin region, band 4.1 and two proteins of molecular mass of 115 and 110 kD was demonstrated. In erythrocytes incubated with insulin label was associated with band 4.1 and two proteins of molecular mass of 115 and 110 kD. Extraction studies showed that the 100-kD proteins are unrelated to band 3 since they were found in Triton-prepared cytoskeleton. To our knowledge this is the first demonstration of such a modification of red cell skeletal proteins, and the first demonstration of post-translation GPI binding to red cell skeletal proteins in response to insulin. A mechanism proposed for GPI binding to red cell skeletal proteins as well as the relevance of these results for physiological disorders that are characterized by hyperinsulinism are briefly discussed.

Keywords: insulin; GPI; erythrocytes; membranes; hyperinsulinism; hypoglycemia.

(Received 15 March 2002)
Crystallization and nucleation behavior in model composites based on iPP and differently sized carbon fibres have been analyzed in this work. The investigations were performed in the isothermal regime (120–127°C) using PLM and DSC. The results were analyzed by applying the Avrami and Muchova-Lednicky methods. It was shown that the carbon fibre surface acts as a nucleating agent during the crystallization of the iPP matrix. The highest effect was obtained with the fibres of PP-compatible size (C-T) related to unsized carbon fibres (C-U). The induction time,ti, and half-time of crystallization decreased with increasing carbon fibre content. The energy effect on the thickness of the critical nucleus decreased in the presence of C-fibres, a fact confirmed by a decrease in the nucleation parameter Q and the difference energy parameter Ds(Q decreased from – 4.96 for iPP to –21.32 for C/iPP model composites, and Ds decreased from 6.14×10-7 J/cm2for iPP to 1.63×10-7 J/cm2for model composites). The results of the model composites and their comparison with published data confirmed that the Muchova-Lednicky method could be successfully applied for the quantitative evaluation of the nucleation parameters not only in the temperature range previously suggested (130 – 138°C), but also at lower crystallization temperatures (Tc = 121–127°C).

Keywords: polypropylene, carbon fibres, crystallization, nucleacion, kinetics.

Electrochemically deposited copper powders, which are formed of particles of different size and morphology, are characterized by some properties like specific surface and apparent density. A procedure of the determination of a representative powder particle, exhibiting the same values of specific surface and apparent density as the powder is proposed. The proposed procedure also permints an explanation of the branching of copper dendrites.

Keywords: copper powder, copper particle, representative powder particle, dendritic branching.

(Received 1 February 2002)
Poly-(1-naphthylamine) films were synthesized potentiodinamically and potentiostatically from 1-naphthylamine in neutral acetonitrile medium using a platinum electrode. These polymer films were investigated by infrared spectroscopy. Contrary to earlier published results neglecting the stereochemistry of the poly-(1-naphthylamine), we predict on the basis of quantum stereochemical analysis of the possible structural subunits of the polymer, that the ordinary N–C(4) coupled product is not predominant in the polymer because it is far removed from the expected planarity. Based on the results of IR investigations and semiempirical quantum chemical calculations, it is propose that the polymer products are formed via mixed N–C(4), N-C(5) and N–C(7) coupling routes. The heats of formation of the oxidized 1-naphthylamine dimers and hexamers were calculated.

Keywords: coupling routes, infrared spectroscopy, polymer strcture, poly-(1-naphthylamine) films, stereochemistry.

Institute for Plant Protection and Environment, T. Drajzera 9, 11000 Belgrade, Yugoslavia

(Received 2 July 2002)
In this paper the results of a five-year investigation of the pollution of soil, as well as of surface and groundwater by atrazine are reported. The soil samples were collected from different localities, from the tillage level, at two depths (0–15 and 15–30 cm) during the period September-November from 1995 to 1999. The surface and groundwater samples were taken from the same localities during the same period. The residues were detected by the ELISA test. The results showed that almost all the analysed soil samples contained residues of atrazine. These quantities varied from 0.02 to 0.10 mg/kg (0–15 cm), and up to 0.05 mg/kg (15–30 cm), depending on the locality, soil type and the year of investigation. Concerning the residues in the surface and groundwater, it was found that most of the analysed samples contained atrazine residues. In the case of the surface water, the quantity of the residues ranged from 1.0 to 4.13 mg/L, whill the ground water contained up to 0.3 mg/L depending on the locality and the year of investigation.

Keywords: atrazine, soil, groundwater, surface water.
