Literature data on utilization of acetyl group of aryl-1-ethanones (acetophenones) for the synthesis of organic compounds is generalized. Different approaches of preparation of aromatic compounds by chemical transformations of methyl as well as keto- group of titled compounds are systematized. Examples of the synthesis of organic compounds based on products of primary transformations of aryl-1-ethanones are considered.

The current work represents the results of a monitoring executed on Nistru River waters between October 2003 and September 2005. The water quality was evaluated on the basis of such kinetic indicators as redox state and capacity of inhibition. The obtained results shows that Nistru River water in the segment Naslavcea village – Dubasari barrage are continuously polluted with reducing substances that diminish the H2O2 content, that actually determines the redox state of natural waters and the content of free radicals.

The aim of this work is the study made for obtaining iodized oil that would satisfy the requirements in iodine for human body. The sunflower oil is a product with the most important value, thus the production of oil fortified with iodine would be a cheap and accessible option. These studies indicate that lipids present an important vehicle for the fortification with iodine. Eradication of the iodine deficiency may be realized not only by injection of the iodinated oil, but also by its use as an ingredient for the formulation of different food compositions. This method, complementary with the iodinated salt, would allow the increase of the efficiency of the prophylactic undertaken measures, because is based on the use of vegetal material – sunflower oil; it is cost-efficient and does not require substantial investments.

The novel bis(μ3-oxo) tetranuclear trichloracetate cluster, [Fe4O2(CCl3COO)8(THF)2(DMF)(H2O)]⋅THF (1), has been synthesised and subsequently characterised by X-ray structure analysis, magnetic measurements and infra red (IR). The structure of cluster is “butterfly” type. The Fe···Fe separation has the value of 2.883(1) - 3.441(7) Å. The coordination number of iron (III) is 6. Magnetic studies reveal the presence of an antiferromagnetic exchange in the parallelogram skeletons of the tetranuclear species. Using the spin Hamiltonian H = -2Jwb(Ŝ1Ŝ2 + Ŝ2Ŝ3 + Ŝ3Ŝ4 + Ŝ4Ŝ1) - 2JbbŜ2Ŝ4v+ gμβ(Ŝ1z + Ŝ2z +Ŝ3z + Ŝ4z)B, the fitting parameters Jbb = - 14.3 cm-1, Jwb = - 32.1 cm-1 , g = 2.07, ρparam. impur. = 4.2 %, ΘCurie-Weiss const. = -0.5 K and R = 6.8·10-5 were obtained.

Reaction in methanol solution of the trinuclear ‘basic’ chromium(III) acetate with Pr(NO3)3⋅5H2O and further extraction by chloroform-acetone mixture led to the formation of novel unusual [Cr3O(CH3COO)6(H2O)3]NO3⋅HNO3⋅H2O (1) cluster with one “free” molecule of nitric acid. Complex 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with, at room temperature, a = 13.624(2), b = 15.032(2), c = 15.180(2) Å, β = 112.98(3) °, Z = 4, and V = 2862.09 Å3. The obtained crystalline compound has been synthesized and characterized by IR and UV/Vis methods.

Three steroidal glycosides of spirostane series have been isolated from the seeds of Hyoscyamus niger L.(Solanaceae). Their structures were determined on the basis of chemical evidence and extensive spectroscopic methods including one-dimensional, two-dimensional NMR and MS analysis. In the genus Hyoscyamus the given compounds have been found out for the first time.
