Generally, incorporation of the cyclohexane rings into the rigid core of rod-like mesogens leads to improved technological parameters, i.e. low viscosity, ambient transition temperatures and stability of the nematic state. Taking this into consideration,

Non-conventional mesophases have been observed in novel ferrocene-containing liquid crystals. The formation of helical and garland-like superstructures, and spontaneous resolution into macroscopic chiral domains occur in the lamellar mesophase. The nemati

The intramolecular cooperative reactions of 1,2-bis(diazoketone)s initiated by the Wolff rearrangement of α-diazoketones have been investigated.Under thermal conditions, 1,2-bis(diazoketone)s are efficiently transformed into 2-cyclopenten-1-one derivatives with complete stereospecificity.Thus, a most extraordinary result is reported, that trans-hydro-2-inden-1-ones (1-3) were synthesized for the first time from trans-1,2-bis(diazoketone)s (5, 11, and 12), respectively.The unprecedented trans-hydroindenone structure was confirmed by X-ray analysis of 3 as well as 1H NMR analysis and was supported by ab initio molecular orbital calculations.The same reactions were also carried out under photochemical conditions and were applied to 1,3-bis(diazoketone)s, giving 2-cyclohexen-1-one derivatives.

Thermal reaction of α,ω-bis(diazo)diketones gives α,β-unsaturated cycloalkenones including unsubstituted trans-hydroindenones, which were difficult to access by the conventional synthetic reactions.

Spirogermanium (1;8,8-diethyl-N,N-dimethyl-2-aza-8-germaspiro[4.5]decane-2-propanamin e dihydrochloride) is a potent cytotoxic agent in vitro which has demonstrated limited activity in experimental animal tumor models. Subsequently, it has been reported that spirogermanium has antiarthritic and suppressor cell-inducing activity. We have synthesized a series of substituted 8-hetero-2-azaspiro[4.5]decane and 9-hetero-3-azaspiro[5.5]undecane analogues of spirogermanium to identify the heteroatom requirements for in vivo antiarthritic and suppressor cell-inducing activity. This structure-activity relationship study has identified that appropriately substituted silicon and carbon analogues of spirogermanium retain both antiarthritic and immunosuppressive activity, with the 8,8-dipropyl (carbon) analogue being among the most active. Following the identification of N,N-dimethyl-8,8-dipropyl-2-azaspiro[4,5]decane-2-propanamine dihydrochloride (9) as more active analogue than spirogermanium, a series of 8,8-dipropyl analogues with various amine substituents were synthesized. A number of these analogues had activity similar to that of 9. A correlation between activity in the adjuvant arthritic rat and the ability to induce suppressor cells (r = 0.894, p0.001) suggests an association between the two pharmacologic effects. While the precise biochemical mechanism(s) for the pharmacological activity is unclear, these data suggest that compounds within this series, e.g., N,N-dimethyl-8,8-dipropyl-2-azaspiro[4.5]decane-2-propanamine dihydrochloride, may provide effective therapy in diseases of autoimmune origin and/or the prevention of rejection in tissue transplantation.
