Isomerically pure cis,cis,trans-1-pheny1-1,3,5-
heptatriene was prepared and cyclized. Ring closure
was followed by a 1,5 hydrogen shift, and the only product
observed was 1-phenyl -6-methyl -1,3-cyclohexadiene.
Rough first order rate constants for thermolysis and
the hydrogen shift were determined. Kinetic estimates
indicate that the report of disallowed product in a...
Part 1
The pyrolysis of cis-1-trimethylsiloxy-1-cyclopr opyl-3-cyclononene in the temperature range 285-350° is described. Instead
of siloxy-Cope rearrangement, undesired desiloxylation took place.
Part 2
Gas-phase pyrolytic rearrangement of 2-phenyl-1-trimethylsiloxy-1-vinylcyclononane was investigated in a static system
in the temperature range 213-330°. It was discovered that
three major products resulted: cis- and...
Both oxy-Cope and siloxy-Cope rearrangements involve
(1, 3) and (3, 3) sigrnatropic shifts. Both the concerted mechanism,
and the stepwise mechanism via a diradical intermediate are possible.
In a cyclic system such as cis-l-vinylcyclooct-3-en-l-ol, the thermal
rearrangement takes place preferably through a diradical intermediate.
At high temperature, the reaction also...
Certain 2- chioroethyl nitrosoureas have been demonstrated
to be highly specific inactivators of chymotrypsin
in vitro and glutathione reductase, both in vivo and in
isolated rat hepatocytes. The inactivation of glutathione
reductase in isolated hepatocytes resulted in an increased
sensitivity toward an adriamycin induced oxidative
challenge.
Prolonged incubation of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-([1-¹⁴...
This thesis examines the interconnection between the in vitro and in
vivo phosphorylation of rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase. The first goal
of the project was to show whether a novel site of rabbit muscle
phosphofructokinase that is subject to in vitro phosphorylation, serine 376,
may also become phosphorylated in vivo. Evidence...
The study and utilization of Danio rerio (Zebrafish) as a model organism has increased greatly in recent decades. They are used in many areas of biological research, but one field that has used them extensively is immunology. Since zebrafish have been found to possess many orthologs to human genes, study...
In two studies we tested the effect of vitamin B-6
(B-6) intake on in vitro lymphocyte, proliferation and IL-2
production in healthy young women. In Study I, 6 women were
fed a constant diet containing 0.84 mg (4.96 μmols) of B-6
for 12 d, and 1.24 mg (7.33 μmols) and...
One-electron oxidation of the μ-oxo dimer
(cis,cis-[Ruᴵᴵᴵ(bpy)₂(OH₂)]₂O⁴⁺, {3,3}) to {3,4} by S₂O₈²⁻ can
be described by three concurrent reaction pathways corresponding
to the three protic forms of {3,3}. Free energy
correlations of the rate constants, transient species dynamics
determined by pulse radiolysis, and medium and temperature
dependencies of the alkaline...
An evaluation was made in 21 seed production areas and 1 seed orchard in Region 1 to identify the primary insect pests and to assess amount of injury caused. Cones from Douglas-fir, grand fir, western larch, lodgepole pine, ponderosa pine, and western white pine were collected periodically and examined. The...
Insect damage was extensive to Douglas-fir, ponderosa pine, western white pine, and western larch cones at most seed production areas surveyed in 1979. From 70 to 100 percent of the cones from several collecting periods were injured. Moderate damage (40-70 percent of cones injured) occurred to Douglas-fir, ponderosa pine, western...
The OSU Perspective was developed to provide assessment and other information about our students and programs. We hope that by making this information available to OSU faculty and staff, we can stimulate conversation that helps to keep students and student learning at our core.
The Perspective is published quarterly both...
