This chapter deals with the kinetics and mechanisms of the hydrolysis of carboxylic acid derivatives of general formula RCOX. These include carboxylic acid halides, amides, and anhydrides with small sections on carboxylic acid cyanides etc. Many recent developments in this field have been made with acid derivatives in which R is not an aliphatic or aromatic group, for example, carbamic acid derivatives, and these are reported where relevant, as are reactions such as ethanolysis, aminolysis, etc. where they throw light on the mechanisms of hydrolysis.

The most recent procedure to be adopted165 employs the essentials of Scheme 12 but differs simply in the nature of the carbonyl compound employed aldehydes and ketones are replaced by acid chlorides or acid cyanides. At the time of writing this procedure has been applied to the naphthalene series only to give 96 containing alkyl, electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups at the exocyclic position (Scheme 13). The specific...

The US Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defence employs an automated microdistillation assay for cyanide in blood, using fluorometric detection (67). For assaying free CN , plasma is mixed with and dialyzed against pH 7.4 phosphate buffer. For an assay of total blood cyanide, blood is mixed with saline containing Triton X (which hemolyzes the red cells), treated with 0.5 % sulfuric acid and dialyzed against 0.25 % sulfuric acid. Cyanide is... 

Cyanide will attack iminium ions the Strecker synthesis of amino acids Cyanide will react with iminium ions to form oc amino nitriles. Although these compounds are relatively unimportant in their own right, a simple hydrolysis step produces a amino acids. This route to amino acids is known as the Strecker synthesis. Of course, it s not usually necessary to make the amino acids that Nature produces for us in living systems they can be extracted from hydrolysed proteins. 

Solutions of the a salt, upon prolonged standing, are converted into the j8 variety, a process that is hastened by the addition of 1 per cent, of acetic acid. Cyanides, alkalies, and ammonia induce the reverse transformation.

Aqueous solution is acidic. Contact with acid or acid fumes forms toxic fluorine. Keep away from strong oxidizers strong acids cyanides, alkalis, alkaline metals and finely divided aluminum or magnesium. In tenqjeratures above 100°F/38°C, toxic fumes of ammonia, hydrogen fluoride, nitrogen oxides, silicon oxide, and silicon tetrafluoride maybe released. On small fires, use dry chemical powder (such as Purple-K-...
