The quinaldine is separated from any unreacted aniline and from the alkyl-anilines by treatment with acetic anhydride, basified with sodium carbonate and steam distilled. Only the primary and secondary amines are acetylated the acetylated amines are now much less volatile so that separation from the steam-volatile quinaldine (a tertiary amine) is facile. 

The regioselectivity benefits from the increased polarisation of the alkene moiety, reflected in the increased difference in the orbital coefficients on carbon 1 and 2. The increase in endo-exo selectivity is a result of an increased secondary orbital interaction that can be attributed to the increased orbital coefficient on the carbonyl carbon ". Also increased dipolar interactions, as a result of an increased polarisation, will contribute. Interestingly, Yamamoto has demonstrated that by usirg a very bulky catalyst the endo-pathway can be blocked and an excess of exo product can be obtained The increased di as tereo facial selectivity has been attributed to a more compact transition state for the catalysed reaction as a result of more efficient primary and secondary orbital interactions as well as conformational changes in the complexed dienophile" . Calculations show that, with the polarisation of the dienophile, the extent of asynchronicity in the activated complex increases . Some authors even report a zwitteriorric character of the activated complex of the Lewis-acid catalysed reaction " . Currently, Lewis-acid catalysis of Diels-Alder reactions is everyday practice in synthetic organic chemistry.

Decomposition products from primary and secondary dialkyl peroxides include aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, hydrogen, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide (44). 

In general, if the desired carbon—phosphoms skeleton is available in an oxidi2ed form, reduction with lithium aluminum hydride is a powerful technique for the production of primary and secondary phosphines. The method is appHcable to halophosphines, phosphonic and phosphinic acids as well as thein esters, and acid chlorides. Tertiary and secondary phosphine oxides can be reduced to the phosphines. 

Water and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere can be absorbed by the amines to form hydrates and carbamates, from primary and secondary amines, respectively. 

Steam-Reforming Natural Gas. Natural gas is the single most common raw material for the manufacture of ammonia. A typical flow sheet for a high capacity single-train ammonia plant is iadicated ia Figure 12. The important process steps are feedstock purification, primary and secondary reforming, shift conversion, carbon dioxide removal, synthesis gas purification, ammonia synthesis, and recovery. 

Hydroxyl Group. The OH group of cyanohydrins is subject to displacement with other electronegative groups. Cyanohydrins react with ammonia to yield amino nitriles. This is a step in the Strecker synthesis of amino acids. A one-step synthesis of a-amino acids involves treatment of cyanohydrins with ammonia and ammonium carbonate under pressure. Thus acetone cyanohydrin, when heated at 160°C with ammonia and ammonium carbonate for 6 h, gives a-aminoisobutyric acid [62-57-7] in 86% yield (7). Primary and secondary amines can also be used to displace the hydroxyl group to obtain A/-substituted and Ai,A/-disubstituted a-amino nitriles. The Strecker synthesis can also be appHed to aromatic ketones. Similarly, hydrazine reacts with two molecules of cyanohydrin to give the disubstituted hydrazine. 

Ammonia production from natural gas includes the following processes desulfurization of the feedstock primary and secondary reforming carbon monoxide shift conversion and removal of carbon dioxide, which can be used for urea manufacture methanation and ammonia synthesis. Catalysts used in the process may include cobalt, molybdenum, nickel, iron oxide/chromium oxide, copper oxide/zinc oxide, and iron. 

Because tertiary alcohols are so readily converted to chlorides with hydrogen chloride, thionyl chloride is used mainly to prepare primary and secondary alkyl chlorides. Reactions with thionyl chloride are nonrrally carried out in the presence of potassium carbonate or the weak organic base pyridine. 

These Br nsted-type plots often seem to be scatter diagrams until the points are collated into groups related by specific structural features. Thus, p-nitrophenyl acetate gives four separate, but parallel, lines for reactions with pyridines, anilines, imidazoles, and oxygen nucleophiles.Figure 7-4 shows such a plot for the reaction of trans-cmmm c anhydride with primary and secondary aliphatic amines to give substituted cinnamamides.All of the primary amines without substituents on the a carbon (R-CHi-NHi) fall on a line of slope 0.62 cyclopentylamine also lies on this line. If this line is characteristic of normal behavior, most of the deviations become qualitatively explicable. The line drawn through the secondary amines (slope 1.98) connects amines with the structure R-CHi-NH-CHi-R. The different steric requirements in the acylation reaction and in the model process... 

Triphenylphosphine in refluxing carbon tetrachloride converts primary and secondary alcohols into the corresponding chlorides under very mild conditions (/) with inversion of configuration (2, J). A suggested route for the transformation is shown. 

When the substrate does not contain a reactive carbon-carbon double bond, the ozonolysis procedure appears to provide a convenient and efficient method for the conversion of primary and secondary nitro compounds into carbonyl compounds fEq. 6.7. ... 

One of the benefits of catalytic cracking is that the primary and secondary ions tend to rearrange to form a tertiary ion (a carbon with three other carbon bonds attached). As will be discussed later, the increased stability of tertiary ions accounts for the high degree of branching associated with cat cracking. 

The reaction of an alkyl halide or los3 late with a nucleophiJe/base results eithe in substitution or in diminution. Nucleophilic substitutions are of two types S 2 reactions and SN1 reactions, in the SN2 reaction, the entering nucleophih approaches the halide from a direction 180° away from the leaving group, result ing in an umbrella-like inversion of configuration at the carbon atom. The reaction is kinetically second-order and is strongly inhibited by increasing stork bulk of the reactants. Thus, S 2 reactions are favored for primary and secondary substrates. 

Identify the substitution pattern of the two epoxide carbon atoms—in this case, one carbon is secondary and one is primary. Then recall the guidelines for epoxide cleavages. An epoxide with only primary and secondary carbons usually undergoes cleavage by SN2-like attack of a nucleophile on the less hindered carbon, but an epoxide with a tertiary carbon atom usually undergoes cleavage by backside attack on the more hindered carbon. In this case, an S]sj2 cleavage of the primary C—O epoxide bond will occur. 

Like alcohols, amines with fewer than five carbon atoms are generally water-soluble. Also like alcohols, primary and secondary amines form hydrogen bonds and are highly associated. As a result, amines have higher boiling points than alkanes of similar molecular weight. Diethylamine (MW = 73 amu) boils at 56.3 °C, for instance, while pentane (MW = 72 amu) boils at 36.1 °C. 

Dialkyl peroxydicarbonates have been reported as low temperature sources of alkoxy radicals (Scheme 3.30)lfMJfb and these radicals may be formed in relatively inert media. However, it is established, for primary and secondary peroxydicarbonates, that the rate of loss of carbon dioxide is slow compared to the rate of addition to most monomers or reaction with other substrates.186,187 Thus, in polymerizations carried out with diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate (47), chains will be initiated by isopropoxycarbonyloxy (48) rather than isopropoxy radicals (49) (see 3.4.2.2).188...
