CONGEN reaction

Synthesis of camptothecin (163) is another example[133]. The iboga alkaloid analog 164 has been synthesized smoothly by the intramolecular coupling of iodoindole and unsaturated ester to form an eight-membered ring. Af-Methyl protection of the indole is important for a smooth reaction[134]. An efficient construction of the multifunctionalized skeleton 165 of congeners of FR900482 has been achieved[135]. 

Alcohohc beverages are made up primarily of ethanol, congeners, and water. Congeners are vaporized with the alcohol in distillation below 190° proof and are developed during the maturation process by oxidation and other reactions. These components contribute to palatability and create the characteristic appearance, aroma, and taste of a particular spidt. When the spirit is distilled at a lower proof, more congeners are present and the spirits possess more character. Congeners are usually reported either as grams per 100 Hters at "as is" proof, or as 100° proof at parts per million or parts per billion. 

Oil-soluble derivatives of testosterone itself predate those of its 19-nor congener these agents too are used to administer depot injections so as to provide in effect long-term blood levels of drug. Thus, acylation of testosterone with propionyl chloride in the presence of pyridine yields testosterone propionate (76a)acylation by means of decanoic anhydride yields testosterone decanoate (76b).Finally, reaction of 75 with 3-cyclopentylpropionyl chloride affords testosterone cypionate (76c)This last undergoes hydrolysis unusually slowly because of the presence of two substituents at the 5 position (see Newman s Rule of 6). ... 

The syntheses and spectroscopic and electrochemical characterization of the rhodium and iridium porphyrin complexes (Por)IVI(R) and (Por)M(R)(L) have been summarized in three review articles.The classical syntheses involve Rh(Por)X with RLi or RMgBr, and [Rh(Por) with RX. In addition, reactions of the rhodium and iridium dimers have led to a wide variety of rhodium a-bonded complexes. For example, Rh(OEP)]2 reacts with benzyl bromide to give benzyl rhodium complexes, and with monosubstituted alkenes and alkynes to give a-alkyl and fT-vinyl products, respectively. More recent synthetic methods are summarized below. Although the development of iridium porphyrin chemistry has lagged behind that of rhodium, there have been few surprises and reactions of [IrfPorih and lr(Por)H parallel those of the rhodium congeners quite closely.Selected structural data for rr-bonded rhodium and iridium porphyrin complexes are collected in Table VI, and several examples are shown in Fig. 7. ... 

Like Na,K-ATPase, gastric H,K-ATPase also exhibits a p-nitrophenylphosphatase (/>NPPase) activity. This phosphatase activity is dependent on Mg and K, or one of its congeners with the same order of selectivity as for the ATPase activity, yielding a specific activity of 6D84% of the maximal ATPase activity [4,136,137]. Phosphorylation by pNPP has not been demonstrated and transport is also not catalyzed by this substrate. As in the ATPase reaction the effect of on the... 

It has been suggested that the photochemical reaction of pentachlorophenol in aqueous solution to produce octachlorodibenzo[l,4] dioxin and some of the heptachloro congener could account for the discrepancy between values for the emission of chlorinated dioxins and their deposition, which is significant for the octachloro congener (Baker and Hites 2000). 

The transformation of arenes in the troposphere has been discussed in detail (Arey 1998). Their destruction can be mediated by reaction with hydroxyl radicals, and from naphthalene a wide range of compounds is produced, including 1- and 2-naphthols, 2-formylcinnamaldehyde, phthalic anhydride, and with less certainty 1,4-naphthoquinone and 2,3-epoxynaphthoquinone. Both 1- and 2-nitronaphthalene were formed through the intervention of NO2 (Bunce et al. 1997). Attention has also been directed to the composition of secondary organic aerosols from the photooxidation of monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the presence of NO (Eorstner et al. 1997) the main products from a range of alkylated aromatics were 2,5-furandione and the 3-methyl and 3-ethyl congeners. 

H). On the other hand, the synthesis of unsymmetricaUy iV,iV -substituted congeners is less straightforward as a functionalised imidazole has to be isolated prior to alkylation or arylation. Two main methods are available for imidazole functionaU-sation deprotonation with metalUc Na or K leading to an imidazoUde (I) followed by reaction with RX or reaction of glyoxal with a primary amine, an ammonium salt and formaldehyde (J). Al-functionalised imidazole can then be alkylated or... 

The lanthanides are congeners of the Group IIIA metals scandium and yttrium, with the +3 oxidation state usually being the most stable. These ions are strong oxyphilic Lewis acids and catalyze carbonyl addition reactions by a number of nucleophiles. Recent years have seen the development of synthetic procedures involving lanthanide metals, especially cerium.195 In the synthetic context, organocerium... 

Silicon is generally considered to be a congener of carbon and this is also reflected in the evolution of silicon as a reducing agent for metal oxides. Silicon forms a fairly stable solid oxide silica or silicon dioxide (Si02) and also a stable gaseous oxide silicon monoxide (SiO), both of which can be useful in oxide reduction reactions.
