4-amino-8- -, preparation

Azo-compounds can be obtained by reduction of nitro-compounds, or by oxidation of hydrazo-compounds. They are usually prepared, however, by reacting a phenol or amine with a diazonium salt. The coupling usually takes place in the position para to the hydroxyl or amino group, but if this position is occupied it goes to the ortho position, e.g. 

Other chlorinated naphthalenes. The other monochloronaphthalene (2-), the ten theoretically possible dichloronaphthalenes, and the fourteen trichloronaphthalenes have all been prepared, generally from the corresponding amino-derivatives by diazotization and treatment with CuCl. They are of little industrial importance. 

Crystalline solid m.p. 35-36 "C, b.p. 154--156 C, prepared by oxidizing A,A -dicycIo-hexylthiourea with HgO in carbon disulphide solution, also obtained from cyclohexylamine and phosgene at elevated temperatures. Used as a mild dehydrating agent, especially in the synthesis of p>eptides from amino-acids. Potent skin irritant. 

CfiHsNjOs. Red needles m.p. 168-169°C. Soluble in dilute acids and alkalis. Prepared by reduction of picric acid with sodium hydrogen sulphide, ft is used for the preparation of azodyes, which can be after-chromed by treatment with metallic salts owing to the presence of a hydroxyl group ortho to the amino-group. 

The mixture of xylidines has been used as a first component of azo-dyes. The chief constituent of the mixture is m-xylidine (4-amino-1,3-xylene). It can be separated by crystallization from glacial ethanoic acid. It is also used for the preparation of azo-dyes. 

Covalent immobilization of proteins on nricrostmctured gold surfaces was studied in [226]. On Arese substrates, which were prepared by pCP aird etching. Are immobilization sites of proteins could be spatially controlled using air amino-reactive SAM. The whole process, i.e. production of Are micropattemed substrate including SAM exchairge aird protein immobilization, took a reasonably small amount of time ( 24 h), providing some flexibility in the experimental work. 

Glycine is the simplest member of a large and very important class of compounds, the a-amino-carboxylic acids. TTiere are many different methods available for the synthesis of amino-acids, but glycine can be readily prepared by the action of an excess of ammonia on chloroacetic acid ... 

The most noteworthy reaction of azo-compounds is their behaviour on reduction. Prolonged reduction first saturates the azo group, giving the hydrazo derivative (C NH-NH C), and then breaks the NH NH linkage, with the formation of two primary amine molecules. If method (1) has been employed to prepare the azo-compound, these two primary amines will therefore be respectively (a) the original amine from which the diazonium salt was prepared, and (6) the amino derivative of the amine or phenol with which the diazonium salt was coupled. For example, amino-azobenzene on complete reduction gives one equivalent of aniline, and one of p-phenylene diamine, NHaCeH NH benzene-azo-2-naphthoI similarly gives one equivalent of aniline and one of... 

This preparation illustrates the use of dimethyl sulphate to convert a primary amino group into the secondary monomethylamino group, without the methy-lation proceeding to the tertiary dimethylamino stage. The methylation of anthranilic acid is arrested at the monomethylamino stage by using i-i molecular equiN alents of sodium hydroxide and of dimethyl sulphate. The reactions can be considered as ... 

In the present preparation, ethyl acetoacetate is treated with sufficient nitrous acid to convert half into the a-nitroso (or a-oximino) ester, which is reduced by zinc and acetic acid to the a-amino ester (I). The latter then condenses with... 

This preparation illustrates the ready formation of the thiazole ring by the condensation of an ot-halogeno-ketone and a thioamide. Thus chloroacetone, which may conveniently be represented in the enol form (I), condenses with thiourea (II) to give 2-amino-4-methylthiazolc (III). 

These salts are by far the most readily prepared derivatives (having sharp m.ps.) of the amino-aromatic sulphonic acids. 

The above method of preparing a neutral solution of the ammonium salt cannot be applied to extremely weak acids (e.g., some amino-acids), the ammonium salts of which dissociate in boiling aqueous solution.
