There are a wide variety of methods for introduction of substituents at C3. Since this is the preferred site for electrophilic substitution, direct alkylation and acylation procedures are often effective. Even mild electrophiles such as alkenes with EW substituents can react at the 3-position of the indole ring. Techniques for preparation of 3-lithioindoles, usually by halogen-metal exchange, have been developed and this provides access not only to the lithium reagents but also to other organometallic reagents derived from them. The 3-position is also reactive toward electrophilic mercuration. 

Sodium [7440-23-5] Na, an alkali metal, is the second element of Group 1 (lA) of the Periodic Table, atomic wt 22.9898. The chemical symbol is derived from the Latin natrium. Commercial iaterest ia the metal derives from its high chemical reactivity, low melting poiat, high boiling poiat, good thermal and electrical conductivity, and high value ia use. 

Many anthraquinone reactive and acid dyes are derived from bromamine acid. The bromine atom is replaced with appropriate amines in the presence of copper catalyst in water or water—alcohol mixtures in the presence of acid binding agents such as alkaU metal carbonate, bicarbonate, hydroxide, or acetate (Ullmaim condensation reaction).

Two classes of charged radicals derived from ketones have been well studied. Ketyls are radical anions formed by one-electron reduction of carbonyl compounds. The formation of the benzophenone radical anion by reduction with sodium metal is an example. This radical anion is deep blue in color and is veiy reactive toward both oxygen and protons. Many detailed studies on the structure and spectral properties of this and related radical anions have been carried out. A common chemical reaction of the ketyl radicals is coupling to form a diamagnetic dianion. This occurs reversibly for simple aromatic ketyls. The dimerization is promoted by protonation of one or both of the ketyls because the electrostatic repulsion is then removed. The coupling process leads to reductive dimerization of carbonyl compounds, a reaction that will be discussed in detail in Section 5.5.3 of Part B. 

Ascorbic acid is a reasonably strong reducing agent. The biochemical and physiological functions of ascorbic acid most likely derive from its reducing properties—it functions as an electron carrier. Loss of one electron due to interactions with oxygen or metal ions leads to semidehydro-L-ascorbate, a reactive free radical (Figure 18.30) that can be reduced back to L-ascorbic acid by various enzymes in animals and plants. A characteristic reaction of ascorbic acid is its oxidation to dehydro-L-aseorbie add. Ascorbic acid and dehydroascor-bic acid form an effective redox system. 

Sacrificial anode systems operate without external power source. The anodes are reactive metals such as magnesium and zinc or aluminum alloys. The energy for the process is derived from the anode material. Careful design is required to match the output and lifetime of the anodes with the polarization and life-expectancy requirements of the plant. Sacrificial anode CP is used for offshore platforms, sub-sea pipelines and the inside of ballast tanks on tanker ships. 

Studies of the influence of irradiation on the kinetics of oxidation have been confined to post-irradiation work. In general, prior irradiation increases reactivity, although there are considerable inconsistencies in the enhancements obtained The effects can be derived from an increased surface area associated with the swelling voids produced in the metal by the irradiation, and can also probably arise to a lesser extent from chemical effects of the fission products. 

The chloride ion is the most frequent cause of contact corrosion, since chlorine is present in the many chlorinated plastics, and is also frequently retained in residual amounts from reactive intermediates used in manufacture. Thus epoxides usually contain chloride derived from the epichlor-hydin used as the precursor of the epoxide. In addition to the contaminants referred to in Table 18.18, various metal and ammonium cations, inorganic anions and long-chain fatty acids (present as stabilisers, release agents or derived from plasticisers) may corrode metals on contact. 

The reagents prepared by lithiation (see Section 1.3.3.3.1.2.) and titanium exchange of (S)-(Z)-l-methyl-2-butenyl diisopropylcarbamate106 show a diminished reactivity when compared with those derived from the ( -isomer, indicating that in both metalation steps the doublebond geometry is retained16. After treatment of the lithium -TMEDA complex with chlorotris-(diethylamino)titanium and 2-methylpropanal, the homoaldol adduct (3S,47f)-(Z)-4-hydroxy-1,3,5-trimethyl-l-hexenyl diisopropylcarbamate [( + )-4], is formed with 88% ee16. 

Compared with tar, which has a relatively short lifetime in the marine environment, the residence times of plastic, glass and non-corrodible metallic debris are indefinite. Most plastic articles are fabricated from polyethylene, polystyrene or polyvinyl chloride. With molecular weights ranging to over 500,000, the only chemical reactivity of these polymers is derived from any residual unsaturation and, therefore, they are essentially inert chemically and photochemically. Further, since indigenous microflora lack the enzyme systems necessary to degrade most of these polymers, articles manufactured from them are highly resistant or virtually immune to biodegradation. That is, the properties that render plastics so durable... 

The direct reductive amination (DRA) is a useful method for the synthesis of amino derivatives from carbonyl compounds, amines, and H2. Precious-metal (Ru [130-132], Rh [133-137], Ir [138-142], Pd [143]) catalyzed reactions are well known to date. The first Fe-catalyzed DRA reaction was reported by Bhanage and coworkers in 2008 (Scheme 42) [144]. Although the reaction conditions are not mild (high temperature, moderate H2 pressure), the hydrogenation of imines and/or enam-ines, which are generated by reaction of organic carbonyl compounds with amines, produces various substituted aryl and/or alkyl amines. A dihydrogen or dihydride iron complex was proposed as a reactive intermediate within the catalytic cycle. 

The sub-classification of the oxidising metal ions derives from overall reactivity, which is only crudely related to redox potential and is gauged largely with hindsight.
