Recovery of the wopropyl alcohol. It is not usually economical to recover the isopropyl alcohol because of its lo v cost. However, if the alcohol is to be recovered, great care must be exercised particularly if it has been allowed to stand for several days peroxides are readily formed in the impure acetone - isopropyl alcohol mixtures. Test first for peroxides by adding 0-6 ml. of the isopropyl alcohol to 1 ml. of 10 per cent, potassium iodide solution acidified with 0-6 ml. of dilute (1 5) hydrochloric acid and mixed with a few drops of starch solution if a blue (or blue-black) coloration appears in one minute, the test is positive. One convenient method of removing the peroxides is to reflux each one litre of recovered isopropyl alcohol with 10-15 g. of solid stannous chloride for half an hour. Test for peroxides with a portion of the cooled solution if iodine is liberated, add further 5 g. portions of stannous chloride followed by refluxing for half-hour periods until the test is negative. Then add about 200 g. of quicklime, reflux for 4 hours, and distil (Fig. II, 47, 2) discard the first portion of the distillate until the test for acetone is negative (Crotyl Alcohol, Note 1). Peroxides generally redevelop in tliis purified isopropyl alcohol in several days.

Crotyl bromide [29576-14-5] M 135.0, b 103-105 /740mm, n s 1.4792. Dried with MgS04, CaC03 mixture. Fractionally distd through an all-glass Todd column. [Todd column. A column (which may be a Dufton type, fitted with a Monel metal rod and spiral, or a Hempel type, fitted with glass helices) which is surrounded by an open heating jacket so that the temperature can be adjusted to be close to the distillation temperature (Todd Ind Eng Chem (Anal Ed) 17 175 1945)]. 

Some alcohols that have been converted into the corresponding fluorides by reactions with diethyldminosulfur trifluoride include 1-octanol, 2-methyl-2-butanol, isobutyl alcohol, cyclooctanol, ethylene glycol, crotyl alcohol, 2-phenylethanol, 2-bromoethanol, ethyl lactate, and ethyl a-hydrox3maphthaleneacetate. ... 

To minimize the gradual embrittlement that can occur on aging of cyanoacrylate adhesives, plasticizers are added. Some of the materials, which have been used as plasticizers, include phthalates, phosphonates, acyl esters, succinates, and cyano-acetates. The use of allyl, methallyl, and crotyl phthalates is also claimed to improve thermal resistance properties in addition to plasticizing the adhesive [23].

Pd(Ph3P)4, RS02Na, CH2CI2 or THF/MeOH, 70-99% yield. These conditions were shown to be superior to the use of sodium 2-ethylhexanoate. Methallyl, crotyl, and cinnamyl ethers, the Alloc group, and allylamines are all efficiently cleaved by this method. ... 

Cleavage of the methallyl ester is achieved in 80-95% yield by solvolysis in refluxing 90% formic acid. Cinnamyl and crotyl alcohols are similarly cleaved. ... 

The cinnamyl ester can be prepared from an activated carboxylic acid derivative and cinnamyl alcohol or by transesterification with cinnamyl alcohol in the presence of the H-Beta Zeolite (toluene, reflux, 8 h, 59-96% yield). It is cleaved under nearly neutral conditions [Hg(OAc)2, MeOH, 23°, 2-A h KSCN, H2O, 23°, 12-16 h, 90% yield]or by treatment with Sulfated-Sn02, toluene, anisole, reflux. The latter conditions also cleave crotyl and prenyl esters.

Reaction of 2-(A -alkyl-A -benzylamino)- and 2-[A -(rraM-crotyl)-A -ben-zylamino]-3-formyl-4/7-pyrido[l,2-n]pyrimidin-4-ones (260, R = H, Me) with tosylamine gave compounds 268 via compounds 266 and 267 (96T13097). The results of kinetic studies and MP3 calculations on the 3-formyl derivatives 252, 260 and the imines 262, 263 suggested a concerted nature for azepine-ring formation. 

Reaction of 2-[A -(rra -crotyl)-A -benzylamino]-3-formyl-4/f-pyrido[l,2-n]pyrimidin-4-one (269) with chiral primary amines 270 and 271 gave mixtures of diastereoisomers of tetracyclic compounds 273 and tricyclic 275 (96T131]]). The chiral centers in 272 and 274 did not provide any stereocontrol for the formation of diastereomers 273 and 275, respectively. 

In addition to the problems of substrate- or reagent-controlled stereoselectivity, the problem of simple synjanti diastereoselectivity arises. Most studies have been performed on the crotyl derivatives. Table 2 summarizes some of these under the latter aspect. Essentially all types of reagents related to the appropriate 2-propenylmetal reagents collected in Table 1 are known. 

One of the major advantages of 2-alkenylpotassium derivatives over the appropriate lithium and magnesium analogs is the possibility of controlling the double-bond configuration in the allylie anion. For instance, the geometry of ( )-2-butene is retained in the e.vu-2-butenyl anion below — 50 0C, but equilibration above - 25 C leads to the endo-crotyl anion with >97% selectivity12.
