The reactivity of alkylthiazoles possessing a functional group linked to the side-chain is discussed here neither in detail nor exhaustively since it is analogous to that of classical aliphatic and aromatic compounds. These reactions are essentially of a synthetic nature. In fact, the cyclization methods discussed in Chapter II lead to thiazoles possessing functional groups on the alkyl chain if the aliphatic compounds to be cyclized, carrying the substituent on what will become the alkyl side chain, are available. If this is not the case, another functional substituent can be introduced on the side-chain by cyclization and can then be converted to the desired substituent by a classical reaction. 

Unique adsorption selectivities are employed in the separation of Cg aromatic isomers, a classical problem that caimot be easily solved by distillation, crystallisation, or solvent extraction (10). Although -xylene [106-42-3] can be separated by crystallisation, its recovery is limited because of the formation of eutectic with / -xylene [108-58-3]. However, either -xylene, / -xylene, (9-xylene [95-47-6] or ethylbensene [100-41-4] can be extracted selectively by suitable modification of seoUtic adsorbents. 

Aromatic Ring Fluorination. The formation of an aryl diazonium fluoride salt, followed by decomposition, is a classical reaction (the Schiemaim reaction) for aryl fluoride preparation (21). This method has been adapted to the production-scale manufacture of fluorobenzene [462-06-6]... 

Ozonation of Aromatics. Aromatic ring unsaturation is attacked much slower than olefinic double bonds, but behaves as if the double bonds in the classical Kekule stmctures really do exist. Thus, benzene yields three moles of glyoxal, which can be oxidized further to glyoxyUc acid and then to oxahc acid. Substituted aromatics give mixtures of aUphatic acids. Ring substituents such as amino, nitro, and sulfonate are cleaved during ozonation. 

The first step in this scheme is a classical aromatic nucleophilic substitution. Details of the method have been expounded (14—17). References 14 and 15 are concerned with the synthesis of the diaryl hahde intermediate whereas References 16 and 17 discuss the synthesis of the polymers, with emphasis on the polymerisation of PPSF by this route. 

Classically, type B pyrazine syntheses involve self-condensation of an a-aminoacyl compound to yield a 3,6-dihydropyrazine which is subsequently oxidized to the pyrazine (Scheme 54) (70CC25). The aromatization usually proceeds under very mild conditions. 

C-Linked substituents behave in pyrazoles and indazoles as in other azoles (Section 4.02.3.3). The classical aromatic chemistry of these compounds has given rise to a great number of publications (66AHC(6)347, 67HC(22)1, B-76MI40402), but not to a specific pyrazole chemistry. For this reason, only a brief survey will be given here. 

This procedure is representative of a new general method for the preparation of noncyclic acyloins by thiazol ium-catalyzed dimerization of aldehydes in the presence of weak bases (Table I). The advantages of this method over the classical reductive coupling of esters or the modern variation in which the intermediate enediolate is trapped by silylation, are the simplicity of the procedure, the inexpensive materials used, and the purity of the products obtained. For volatile aldehydes such as acetaldehyde and propionaldehyde the reaction Is conducted without solvent in a small, heated autoclave. With the exception of furoin the preparation of benzoins from aromatic aldehydes is best carried out with a different thiazolium catalyst bearing an N-methyl or N-ethyl substituent, instead of the N-benzyl group. Benzoins have usually been prepared by cyanide-catalyzed condensation of aromatic and heterocyclic aldehydes.Unsymnetrical acyloins may be obtained by thiazol1um-catalyzed cross-condensation of two different aldehydes. -1 The thiazolium ion-catalyzed cyclization of 1,5-dialdehydes to cyclic acyloins has been reported. 

The classic example, and still the most useful one, of a LFER is the Hammett equation, which correlates rates and equilibria of many side-chain reactions of meta- and para-substituted aromatic compounds. The standard reaction is the aqueous ionization equilibrium at 25°C of meta- and para-substituted benzoic acids. 

Sodium, liquid ammonia. The utility of this method depends on the nature of the substituents on the aromatic ring. Rings containing electron-withdrawing groups will be reduced, as in the classic Birch reduction. 

The classical Vilsmeier-Haack reaction is one of the most useful general synthetic methods employed for the formylation of various electron rich aromatic, aliphatic and heteroaromatic substrates. However, the scope of the reaction is not restricted to aromatic formylation and the use of the Vilsmeier-Haack reagent provides a facile entry into a large number of heterocyclic systems. In 1978, the group of Meth-Cohn demonstrated a practically simple procedure in which acetanilide 3 (R = H) was efficiently converted into 2-chloro-3-quinolinecarboxaldehyde 4 (R = H) in 68% yield. This type of quinoline synthesis was termed the Vilsmeier Approach by Meth-Cohn. ... 

The classical age of preparative organic chemistry saw the exploration of the extensive field of five-membered heterocyclic aromatic systems. The stability of these systems, in contrast to saturated systems, is not necessarily affected by the accumulation of neighboring heteroatoms. In the series pyrrole, pyrazole, triazole, and tetrazole an increasing stability is observed in the presence of electrophiles and oxidants, and a natural next step was to attempt the synthesis of pentazole (1). However, pentazole has eluded the manifold and continual efforts to synthesize and isolate it. 

Aromatic denitrocyclizations have been used for many years in some well-known synthetic reactions. Probably the best known example is the Turpin synthesis of phenoxazines and similar synthesis of phenothiazines. The classical setup used usually base-catalyzed reactions in polar protic solvents, very often alcohols. In many cases using polar aprotic solvents was found advantageous. Besides the mentioned influence of the H-bonding, better ionization and lower solvation of the nucleophile are also important. Sf Ar reactions proceed through strongly polarized complexes, which are well soluble and highly polarized in polar aprotic solvents. 

The classical synthesis of quinoxalines involves the condensation of an aromatic o-diamine and an -dicarbonyl compound. 

The low order of structural specificity required for classical antihistaminic activity was noted earlier. It has been found possible to substitute an indene nucleus for one of the two aromatic rings that most of these agents possess. The basic side chain may be present as either dimethylaminoethyl or itself cyc-lized to provide an additional fused ring. 

As noted earlier, most classical antidepressant agents consist of propylamine derivatives of tricyclic aromatic compounds. The antidepressant molecule tametraline is thus... 

In a classical multi-step route the critical point is to conduct (he ring closure quantitatively and regioseleclively. In the synthesis of I.PPP, the precursor polymer 13 is initially prepared in an aryl-aryl coupling from an aromatic diboronic acid and an aromatic dibromoketone.
