The behavior of estrone methyl ether (V) in strong acid was studied, in order to elucidate the mechanism of the Kober color reaction. When V was dissolved into concentrated sulfuric acid, a maximum absorption gradually appeared at 465 nm which was then transferred to 452 nm with elapse of time. On the other hand, 3-methoxy-17α-methylestra-1, 3, 5 (10), 9 (11)-tetraen-17β-ol (XIIIb) immediately gave the chromophoric cation χ-465 (VIIb) in concentrated sulfuric acid. Similarly, 3-methoxyestra-1, 3, 5 (10), 9 (11)-tetraen-17β-ol (XIIIa) gave the cation χ-364 (XIVa) which changed in turn to χ-465 (VIIa). Sulfonation gradually occurred at C (2)s of VIIa and VIIb in the same acid to give the corresponding cations XIXa and XIXb ; the maximum absorption at 465 nm altered to 452 nm. The mechanism of the conversion of V into the C (2)-sulfonated χ-465 (XIXa) was elucidated from these behavior of XIIIa and XIIIb in concentrated sulfuric acid.
研究了雌酮甲醚(V)在强酸中的行为,以阐明Kober显色反应的机理。当V溶解到浓硫酸中时,在465 nm处逐渐出现最大吸收,然后随着时间的推移转移到452 nm。另一方面,3-methoxy-17α-methylestra-1, 3, 5 (10), 9 (11)-tetraen-17β-ol (XIIIb) 在浓硫酸中立即产生发色阳离子 χ-465 (VIIb) 。类似地,3-methoxyestra-1, 3, 5 (10), 9 (11)-tetraen-17β-ol (XIIIa) 得到阳离子 χ-364 (XIVa),其又变为 χ-465 (VIIa)。在相同的酸中,VIIa和VIIb的C(2)处逐渐发生磺化,得到相应的阳离子XIXa和XIXb; 465 nm 处的最大吸收变为 452 nm。从XIIIa和XIIIb在浓硫酸中的这些行为阐明了V转化成C(2)-磺化χ-465(XIXa)的机制。
