Acidic nitrogen compounds

The imides, primaiy and secondary nitro compounds, oximes and sulphon amides of Solubility Group III are weakly acidic nitrogen compounds they cannot be titrated satisfactorily with a standard alkaU nor do they exhibit the reactions characteristic of phenols. The neutral nitrogen compounds of Solubility Group VII include tertiary nitro compounds amides (simple and substituted) derivatives of aldehydes and ketones (hydrazones, semlcarb-azones, ete.) nitriles nitroso, azo, hydrazo and other Intermediate reduction products of aromatic nitro compounds. All the above nitrogen compounds, and also the sulphonamides of Solubility Group VII, respond, with few exceptions, to the same classification reactions (reduction and hydrolysis) and hence will be considered together. 

Oxidative reactions frequently represent a convenient preparative route to synthetic intermediates and end products This chapter includes oxidations of alkanes and cycloalkanes, alkenes and cycloalkenes, dienes, aromatic fluorocarbons, alcohols, phenols, ethers, aldehydes and ketones, carboxylic acids, nitrogen compounds, and organophosphorus, -sulfur, -selenium, -iodine, and -boron compounds...

RFG RME Rust inhibitor Reformulated gasoline. Repassed methyl ester. Lubricant additive minimizes rust by preferential adsorption of polar compounds on metal surface to provide a protective film and/or neutralization of corrosive acids, e.g., fatty acids, nitrogen compounds, carbonate-alkylbenzenosulfonate.RMs. Water is solubilized by soft-core Rms.
