Bi-selective

Metoprolol, atenolol, and several other drugs (see Table 10-2) are members of the Di-selective group. These agents may be safer in patients who experience bronchoconstriction in response to propranolol. Since their Bi selectivity is rather modest, they should be used with great caution, if at all, in patients with a history of asthma. However, in selected patients with chronic obstructive lung disease the benefits may exceed the risks, eg, in patients with myocardial infarction. Betai-selective antagonists may be preferable in patients with diabetes or peripheral vascular disease when therapy with a 6-blocker is required since B2 receptors are probably important in liver (recovery from hypoglycemia) and blood vessels (vasodilation). 

Nadolol is noteworthy for its very long duration of action its spectrum of action is similar to that of timolol. Timolol is a nonselective agent with no local anesthetic activity. It has excellent ocular hypotensive effects when administered topically in the eye. Levobunonol (nonselective) and betaxolol (Bi-selective) are used for topical ophthalmic application in glaucoma the latter drug may be less likely to induce bronchoconstriction than nonselective antagonists. Carteolol is a nonselective 13-receptor antagonist. 

Esmolol is a Bi-selective blocker that is rapidly metabolized via hydrolysis by red blood cell esterases. It has a short half-life (9 minutes) and is administered by constant intravenous infusion. Esmolol is generally administered as a loading dose (0.5-1 mg/kg), followed by a constant infusion. The infusion is typically started at 50-150 g/kg/min, and the dose increased every 5 minutes, up to 300 / g/kg/min, as needed to achieve the desired therapeutic effect. Esmolol is used for management of intraoperative and postoperative hypertension, and sometimes for hypertensive emergencies, particularly when hypertension is associated with tachycardia.

Recent applications of pseudo-triple- and -quadruple resonance techniques have in particular focused on the use of indirect detection schemes to measure heteronuclear couplings with increased sensitivity. The most versatile technique for this purpose proved to be H,"X( "Y) or "Xj HK Y) HMQC experiments which use I -BIRD or bi-selective pulses for selective excitation of transitions of ""Y isotopomers and allow to determine both the magnitude of/("X, Y) and its sign relative to /( H/ B X). Experiments of this type are easily employed to spin systems where /( H/ P,"X) ( H/ B Y) which is frequently the case if "Y is a C nucleus which is directly bound to the detected H or P spin, and have been used in a number of cases to measure couplings between C and rare spins such as 109,111 57pgii2 qj. 18705 196 similar B-BIRD-HSQC experiment has also been applied to the measurement of 7( Si, N) in NH-substituted azasilaboroles. ... 

As with the quadmpole ion trap, ions with a particular m/z ratio can be selected and stored in tlie FT-ICR cell by the resonant ejection of all other ions. Once isolated, the ions can be stored for variable periods of time (even hours) and allowed to react with neutral reagents that are introduced into the trapping cell. In this maimer, the products of bi-molecular reactions can be monitored and, if done as a fiinction of trapping time, it is possible to derive rate constants for the reactions [47]. Collision-induced dissociation can also be perfomied in the FT-ICR cell by tlie isolation and subsequent excitation of the cyclotron frequency of the ions. The extra translational kinetic energy of the ion packet results in energetic collisions between the ions and background... 

Phosphine oxides are prepared similarly[644]. Selective monophosphiny-lation of 2,2 -bis[(lrifluoromethanesulfonyl)oxy]-l,1 -binaphthyl (784) with diphenylphosphine oxide using dppb or dppp as a ligand takes place to give optically active 2-(diarylphosphino)-1,1 -binaphthyl (785). No bis-substitution is observed[645,646]. 

When allylic compounds are treated with Pd(0) catalyst in the absence of any nucleophile, 1,4-elimination is a sole reaction path, as shown by 492, and conjugated dienes are formed as a mixture of E and Z isomers[329]. From terminal allylic compounds, terminal conjugated dienes are formed. The reaction has been applied to the syntheses of a pheromone, 12-acetoxy-1,3-dode-cadiene (493)[330], ambergris fragrance[331], and aklavinone[332]. Selective elimination of the acetate of the cyanohydrin 494 derived from 2-nonenal is a key reaction for the formation of the 1,3-diene unit in pellitorine (495)[333], Facile aromatization occurs by bis-elimination of the l,4-diacetoxy-2-cyclohex-ene 496[334],... 

Dimerization is the main path. However, trimerization to form 1.3,6,10-dodecatetraene (15) takes place with certain Pd complexes in the absence of a phosphine ligand. The reaction in benzene at 50 C using 7r-allylpalladium acetate as a catalyst yielded 1,3,6,10-dodecatetraene (15) with a selectivity of 79% at a conversion of 30% based on butadiene in 22 h[ 19,20]. 1,3,7-Octatriene (7) is dimerized to 1,5,7,10.15-hexadecapentaene (16) with 70% selectivity by using bis-rr-allylpalladium. On the other hand. 9-allyl-l,4,6.12-tridecatetraene (17) is formed as the main product when PI13P is added in a 1 1. ratio[21]. 

The cyclohexadiene derivative 130 was obtained by the co-cyclization of DMAD with strained alkenes such as norbornene catalyzed by 75[63], However, the linear 2 1 adduct 131 of an alkene and DMAD was obtained selectively using bis(maleic anhydride)(norbornene)palladium (124)[64] as a cat-alyst[65], A similar reaction of allyl alcohol with DMAD is catalyzed by the catalyst 123 to give the linear adducts 132 and 133[66], Reaction of a vinyl ether with DMAD gives the cyclopentene derivatives 134 and 135 as 2 I adducts, and a cyclooctadiene derivative, although the selectivity is not high[67]. 

The reaction conditions can be varied so that only one of those monomers is formed. 1-Hydroxy-methylurea and l,3-bis(hydroxymethyl)urea condense in the presence of an acid catalyst to produce urea formaldehyde resins. A wide variety of resins can be obtained by careful selection of the pH, reaction temperature, reactant ratio, amino monomer, and degree of polymerization. If the reaction is carried far enough, an infusible polymer network is produced.

The H2O molecule has no 2 or bi vibrations but selection mles for, say, CH2F2, which has vibrations of all symmetry species, could be applied in an analogous way. 

Today the most efficient catalysts are complex mixed metal oxides that consist of Bi, Mo, Fe, Ni, and/or Co, K, and either P, B, W, or Sb. Many additional combinations of metals have been patented, along with specific catalyst preparation methods. Most catalysts used commercially today are extmded neat metal oxides as opposed to supported impregnated metal oxides. Propylene conversions are generally better than 93%. Acrolein selectivities of 80 to 90% are typical. 

Catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation was one of the first enantioselective synthetic methods used industrially (82). 2,2 -Bis(diarylphosphino)-l,l -binaphthyl (BINAP) is a chiral ligand which possesses a Cg plane of symmetry (Fig. 9). Steric interactions prevent interconversion of the (R)- and (3)-BINAP. Coordination of BINAP with a transition metal such as mthenium or rhodium produces a chiral hydrogenation catalyst capable of inducing a high degree of enantiofacial selectivity (83). Naproxen (41) is produced in 97% ee by...
