C-Branched

Diesters have been produced primarily by esterification of a C -branched-chain alcohol with adipic (C ), a2elaic (C ), or sebacic (C q) diacid. Di(2-ethylhexyl)sebacate [122-62-3] was quite generally used in military greases and MIL-L-7808 jet engine oil, but more recent demands and price competition have led to use of a variety of diesters.

Another interesting effect seen in alkanes is that increased branching lowers an alkane s boiling point. Thus, pentane has no branches and boils at 36.1 3C, isopentane (2-methylbutane) has one branch and boils at 27.85 °C, and neopentane (2,2-dimethylpropane) has two branches and boils at 9.5 °C. Similarly, octane boils at 125.7 °C, whereas isooctane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane) boils at 99.3 °C. Branched-chain alkanes are lower-boiling because they are more nearly spherical than straight-chain alkanes, have smaller surface areas, and consequently have smaller dispersion forces.

C-branched sugars or C-oligosaccharides are obtainable through indium-promoted Barbier-type allylations in aqueous media.151 Indium-mediated allylation of a-chlorocarbonyl compounds with various allyl bromides in aqueous media gave the corresponding homoallylic chlorohydrins, which could be transformed into the corresponding epoxides in the presence of a base (Eq. 8.62).152...

A We show only the C atoms and the bonds between them. Remember that there are four bonds to each C atom the remaining bonds not shown are to H atoms. First we realize there is only one isomer with all six C atoms in one line. Then we draw the isomers with one 1-C branch. These are the center two structures below. The isomers with two 1-C...

On their side, Yin and Linker [216] made use of a 2-C-branched hexopyranoside, the synthesis of which was achieved by addition of dimethyl malonate to tri-O-benzyl-D-glucal (TUPAC name 3,4,6-tri-0-benzyl-l,5-anhydro-2-deoxy-D-araZtino-hex-l-enitol, Scheme 45) [217], Thus, saponification of the 2-C-[bis(meth-oxycarbonyl)]methyl derivative 184 to the corresponding malonic acid 185 was followed by heating in refluxing toluene. This led to decarboxylation and lactoniza-tion giving 186. The method was optimized and applied to the synthesis of pentoses and disaccharides. 

A pentopyranoside-fused butenolide is the key intermediate for the synthesis of the natural micotoxin patulin [226, 227]. Its synthesis involves Wittig olefination of a 3,4-di-O-protected arabinopyran-2-uloside, followed by protecting group removal and dehydration (Scheme 47). In other research, the glucopyranosid-2-uloside 190 was converted into the butenolide derivative 191 by aldol condensation with diethyl malonate and transesterification [228]. The latter was shown to be prone to autoxi-dation, leading to 192. Subsequent Michael addition with hydroxide ion, followed by decarboxylation, furnishes C-branched-chain sugar 193.

The above strain off, microcladia is biochemically different from all other seaweeds in nominally the same genus that have been examined so fer. It is also amazing that, after a decade since their first report, the rogiolenynes remain the sole examples of C-branched C, metabolites, in spite of the huge variety of compounds in this class, isolated on a world basis from seaweeds in the genus Laurencia and opisthobranch mollusks that feed on them.
