    In the context of our work on the synthesis of imidazole ring system we have studied the reaction beetween N-haloamidines and 1,1-diaminoethenes

    Tandem aza-Wittig reaction/electrocyclic ring closure. 3,4-dihydroquinazoline from N-imidoyliminotriphenylphosphorane and aromatic aldehydes

    No full text
    Recently we reported a new synthesis of quinazoline ring starting from N-imidoyliminotriphenylphosphoranes and aromatic aldehydes. The proposed mechanism was proved by an indipendent synthesis of the 1,3-diaza-1,3-diene intermediates. These diene derivatives when heated either in xilene or benzene give quantitatively the corresponding 3,4-dihydroquinazolines

    The reaction beetween N-haloamidines and 1,1-diaminoethenes gave 1,2-diaryl-4-amino-5-chloroimidazoles. The 1,2-diaryl-4-aminoimidazoles were obtained by reduction of the corresponding 5-chloroderivatives

    In this communication we report our results about the reaction of S,S-dimethyl-N-(N-benzimidoyl)sulfimides with enamines. The reaction, wich occurs at high temperaure, affords in good yields 2-aryl-4-alkylquinazolines and 2-aryl-4,4-disubstituted-3,4-dihydroquinazolines depending on the enamine employed

    Carotenoids in bird plumage: the complement of red pigments in the plumage of wild and captive bullfinch (Pyrrhula pyrrhula)

    We have studied the carotenoid pigments in the red plumage of male bullfinch (Pyrrhula pyrrhula) immediately following capture and after the completion of the moult in captivity under dietary control. Astaxanthin, adonirubin, and α-doradexanthin, as well as papilioeritrinone and canthaxanthin (in lower amounts) are in every case the dominant carotenoids in the plumage pigment of wild individuals. α-Doradexanthin is responsible for the reddish-rose colour, which captive individuals adopt after a diet consisting mainly of lutein as disposable carotenoid. The red pigmentation biogenesis of captive bullfinch is compared with those of other red pigmented Carduelinae in which male individuals usually lose the red colour in captivity, namely Carpodacus roseus, Carpodacus rubricilloides, Uragus sibiricus, Carduelis cannabina, Carduelis flammea, Loxia curvirostra and Pinicola enucleator

    The chemical structure of the pigments in Ara macao plumage,

    Parrots (Psittaciformes) harbor unusually bright, non-carotenoid, feather pigments. We successfully extracted and purified a sufficient quantity of pigment from the red plumage of the Scarlet Macaw (Ara macao) for a partial chemical analysis. The extracts were analyzed by HPLC coupled with UV-VIS and mass spectroscopy before and after total hydrogenation. We found at least four pigment components. We propose a linear polyenal structure comparable with the molecules tetradecahexenal, hexadecaheptenal, octadecaoctenal and eicosanonenal
