The number- and weight-average relative molecular masses of both the protected and deprotected polymers are determined by size exclusion chromatography (SEC). Absolute molecular masses are obtained using the previously estimated refractive-index increments, dn/dc.

In the protocol, treatment of vinyl bromides and iodides with hexamethylditin (Me3Sn˙) yields intermediate vinyl radicals which undergo 5-exo cyclisation onto nitrile groups to yield intermediate iminyl radicals. The iminyl radicals can undergo 6-endo cyclisation (or 5-exo followed by neophyl rearrangement) to yield tetracyclic π-radicals which lose hydrogen (H˙) in an H-abstraction step. Methyl radicals, generated from the breakdown of trimethylstannyl radicals (Me3Sn˙), are proposed as a possible H-abstractor for this final oxidative step. The protocol has been used to synthesise the tetracyclic rings A–D (tetracycle indolizino[1,2-b]quinolin-9(11H)-one) of the anticancer alkaloids camptothecin, mappicine, nothapodytine B and nothapodytine A.

The energies were calculated at a B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p) level and the gas-phase basicities of some compounds were measured by Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance. Substituent effects were evaluated separately for neutral molecules and protonated forms by means of isodesmic reactions, and dissected into polar and steric effects by comparing ortho and para derivatives. One or two ortho methyl groups have a relatively small steric effect operating almost exclusively in the protonated form which leads to weakened basicity. An ortho tert-butyl group exerts a strong steric effect both in the protonated and nonprotonated forms, manifested also in a rather strong distortion of geometry. The effect on basicity is then a small difference of two large values and is base strengthening. Acid–base properties are in such cases a poor measure of substituent effects and cannot be interpreted in simple terms.","PeriodicalId":17267,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Chemical Society-perkin Transactions 1","volume":"19 1","pages":"168-172"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75324986","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
