Ethynodiol diacetate (53) is prepared by reduction of the 3-oxo group of norethindrone (28) with lithium tributoxyalurninum hydride, followed by acylation with acetic anhydride-pyridine (78,79). It has been reported that higher yields can be obtained in the reduction step by using triethylanainoalurninum hydride (80). 

Functional Group Analysis. The total hydroxyl content of lignin is determined by acetylation with an acetic anhydride—pyridine reagent followed by saponification of the acetate, and followed by titration of the resulting acetic acid with a standard 0.05 W sodium hydroxide solution. Either the Kuhn-Roth (35) or the modified Bethge-Liadstrom (36) procedure may be used to determine the total hydroxyl content. The aUphatic hydroxyl content is determined by the difference between the total and phenoHc hydroxyl contents. 

Semicarbazones are used as protecting groups as a consequence of their stability to reducing agents such as potassium borohydride, sodium boro-hydride and lithium borohydride. Semicarbazones are cleaved by strong acids and by heating in acetic anhydride-pyridine. " ... 

Semicarbazones are prepared in high yields from A " -3-ketones. However, regeneration of the parent dienone is usually difficult and inefficient and very low yields are usually obtained on hydrolysis by nitrous acid, hydrochloric acid or acetic anhydride-pyridine. " In some examples higher yields have been obtained with aqueous acetic acid. ... 

Enol esterification with acetyl chloride-acetic anhydride gives the A -trien-3-acetate, but reaction with isopropenyl acetate or with hot acetic anhydride-pyridine gives A " -trien-3-acetates. " Since A"" -3-ketones react with Girard reagents, these linear dienones can be separated from A ""-3-ketones. ... 

Recently, use of LiCl/DMAc and LiCl/l,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone as solvent systems for acetylation of cellulose by acetic anhydride/pyridine has been compared. A DS of 1.4 was obtained the substituent distribution in the products synthesized in both solvents was found to be the same, with reactivity order Ce > C2 > C3. Therefore, the latter solvent system does not appear to be better than the much less expensive LiCl/DMAc, at least for this reaction. It appears, however, to be especially efficient for etherification reactions [178]. It is possible, however, that the effect of cellulose aggregation is more important for its reaction with the (less reactive) halides than with acid anhydrides this being the reason for the better performance of the latter solvent system in ether formation, since it is more efficient in cellulose dissolution. 

Furazan compound 278 was obtained as a by-product from cholestan-3-one oxime 277 by prolonged heating in an acetic anhydride-pyridine mixture followed by treating with acetyl nitrate prepared from acetic anhydride and nitric acid (Equation 53) <1997T16161>. 

Lack of selectivity in the reaction of the /3-D-glucoside derivative with one molar equivalent of benzylthiocarbonyl chloride has also been noted 40% of the 2,3-diester and 40% of the starting material were isolated.40 Similarly, unimolar benzoylation of phenyl 4,6-0-benzylidene-/3-D-glucopyranoside gave only 9% of the 3-ester, together with 47% of the 2,3-diester.41 Acylation of benzyl 4,6-0-benzylidene-/8-D-glucopyranoside with acetic anhydride-pyridine-pyridine hydrochloride yielded,42 in contrast to the reaction with the... 

In view of the great preponderance of the 3-d anomer in crystalline D-glucofuranurono-6,3-lactone (4), the results obtained from its acetylation with acetic anhydride-pyridine disagree with observations59 suggesting that anomeric ratios are not altered during acylation in pyridine. 

A method involving SPE was developed for the determination of ten A-nitroso amino acids in cured meat products. These compounds were derivatized with diazomethane followed by O-acylation of hydroxyl groups with acetic anhydride-pyridine reagent. The methyl esters and their acylated derivatives were separated by GC on a DB-5 fused silica capillary column and quantified with a TEA-CLD specific for the nitric oxide derived from the thermal denitrosation of nitrosamines recovery exceeded 75% at the 10 ppb level579. 

Some examples 4-Chloro-2-methylaniline 2-Chloro-4-nitrotoluene Sodium hydro-J xide 2-Nitrobenzaldehyde (reference 4) 4-Nitrophenylacetic acid Acetic anhydride, Pyridine 4-Nitrotoluene (reference 3)... 

C-4 hydroxyl group is accomplished under standard conditions (acetic anhydride, pyridine). If an additional reactive functionality has been introduced at C-3 (e.g., (3-aminoethyl), then acetylation also occurs at the second reactive site. It is not unreasonable to conclude that 62 has been employed in the preparation of more vinblastine derivatives than any other chemical intermediate. 

The ring closure of 5-alkylated 3-mercapto-1,2,4-triazoles to thiazolo[3,2-h][l,2,4]triazoles was reported a long time ago. Thus, treatment of 131 with acetic anhydride/pyridine (heat) yields 132 (50BRP634951). 

I. 4-methoxyacetophenone (30 //moles) was added as an internal standard. The reaction was stopped after 2 hours by partitioning the mixture between methylene chloride and saturated sodium bicarbonate solution. The aqueous layer was twice extracted with methylene chloride and the extracts combined. The products were analyzed by GC after acetylation with excess 1 1 acetic anhydride/pyridine for 24 hours at room temperature. The oxidations of anisyl alcohol, in the presence of veratryl alcohol or 1,4-dimethoxybenzene, were performed as indicated in Table III and IV in 6 ml of phosphate buffer (pH 3.0). Other conditions were the same as for the oxidation of veratryl alcohol described above. TDCSPPFeCl remaining after the reaction was estimated from its Soret band absorption before and after the reaction. For the decolorization of Poly B-411 (IV) by TDCSPPFeCl and mCPBA, 25 //moles of mCPBA were added to 25 ml 0.05% Poly B-411 containing 0.01 //moles TDCSPPFeCl, 25 //moles of manganese sulfate and 1.5 mmoles of lactic acid buffered at pH 4.5. The decolorization of Poly B-411 was followed by the decrease in absorption at 596 nm. For the electrochemical decolorization of Poly B-411 in the presence of veratryl alcohol, a two-compartment cell was used. A glassy carbon plate was used as the anode, a platinum plate as the auxiliary electrode, and a silver wire as the reference electrode. The potential was controlled at 0.900 V. Poly B-411 (50 ml, 0.005%) in pH 3 buffer was added to the anode compartment and pH 3 buffer was added to the cathode compartment to the same level. The decolorization of Poly B-411 was followed by the change in absorbance at 596 nm and the simultaneous oxidation of veratryl alcohol was followed at 310 nm. The same electrochemical apparatus was used for the decolorization of Poly B-411 adsorbed onto filter paper. Tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP) was used as supporting electrolyte when methylene chloride was the solvent.

It was also of interest to determine the impurities removed from crude OSL by reslurry in aqueous sodium bicarbonate, which was done to improve its usefulness in phenolic resins (Cook, P.

The chemical imidization of poly(amic alkyl esters) was only reported very recently [59], although reports in the literature claim chemical imidization with a traditional acetic anhydride/pyridine mixture [87]. The chemical imidization of poly(amic alkyl esters) is based on the observation that PMDA/ODA based poly(amic ethyl ester) samples, when formulated at low concentrations for size exclusion chromatography, precipitated upon standing overnight [88]. Distillation of the NMP from phosphorus pentoxide to remove low levels of methyl-amine, a known impurity in this particular solvent, eliminated this unusual behavior. The precipitated polymer had significant levels of imidization as evidenced by IR. Apparently, organic bases, such as alkyl amines, were able to catalyze the conversion of amic alkyl esters to the corresponding imide.
