One of the virtues of the Fischer indole synthesis is that it can frequently be used to prepare indoles having functionalized substituents. This versatility extends beyond the range of very stable substituents such as alkoxy and halogens and includes esters, amides and hydroxy substituents. Table 7.3 gives some examples. These include cases of introduction of 3-acetic acid, 3-acetamide, 3-(2-aminoethyl)- and 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)- side-chains, all of which are of special importance in the preparation of biologically active indole derivatives. Entry 11 is an efficient synthesis of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin. A noteworthy feature of the reaction is the... 

Thiazolecarboxylic acid hydrazides are prepared by the same general methods used to prepare amides, that is, by treating acids, esters, amides, anhydrides, or acid halides with hydrazine or substitued hydrazines. For example, see Scheme 21 (92). The dihydrazides are obtained in the same way (88). With diethyl 2-chloro-4,5-thiazoledicarboxylate this reaction gives the mono hydr azide monoester of 2-hydrazine-4,5-...

Carboxylic acid hydiazides are prepared from aqueous hydrazine and tfie carboxylic acid, ester, amide, anhydride, or halide. The reaction usually goes poody with the free acid. Esters are generally satisfactory. Acyl halides are particularly reactive, even at room temperature, and form the diacyl derivatives (22), which easily undergo thermal dehydration to 1,3,4-oxadiazoles (23). Diesters give dihydtazides (24) and polyesters such as polyacrylates yield a polyhydrazide (25). The chemistry of carboxyhc hydrazides has been reviewed (83,84). 

As a dibasic acid, malic acid forms the usual salts, esters, amides, and acyl chlorides. Monoesters can be prepared easily by refluxing malic acid, an alcohol, and boron trifluoride as a catalyst (9). With polyhydric alcohols and polycarboxyUc aromatic acids, malic acid yields alkyd polyester resins (10) (see Alcohols, polyhydric Alkyd resins). Complete esterification results from the reaction of the diester of maUc acid with an acid chloride, eg, acetyl or stearoyl chloride (11). 

Selected physical properties of various methacrylate esters, amides, and derivatives are given in Tables 1—4. Tables 3 and 4 describe more commercially available methacrylic acid derivatives. A2eotrope data for MMA are shown in Table 5 (8). The solubiUty of MMA in water at 25°C is 1.5%. Water solubiUty of longer alkyl methacrylates ranges from slight to insoluble. Some functionalized esters such as 2-dimethylaniinoethyl methacrylate are miscible and/or hydrolyze. The solubiUty of 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate in water at 25°C is 13%. Vapor—Hquid equiUbrium (VLE) data have been pubHshed on methanol, methyl methacrylate, and methacrylic acid pairs (9), as have solubiUty data for this ternary system (10). VLE data are also available for methyl methacrylate, methacrylic acid, methyl a-hydroxyisobutyrate, methanol, and water, which are the critical components obtained in the commercially important acetone cyanohydrin route to methyl methacrylate (11). 

Phosphoms halides are subject to reactions with active hydrogen compounds and result in the elimination of hydrogen halide. They are convenient reagents in the synthesis of many esters, amides, and related compounds. However, because the involved hydrogen halide frequendy catalyzes side reactions, it is usually necessary to employ a hydrogen halide scavenger to remove the by-product.

The metabohc rate of poly(ester—amide) where x = Q has been studied in rats using carbon-14 labeled polymer. This study indicates that polymer degradation occurs as a result of hydrolysis of the ester linkages whereas the amide linkages remain relatively stable in vivo. Most of the radioactivity is excreted by urine in the form of unchanged amidediol monomer, the polymer hydrolysis product (51). 

Carboxylic Acid Group. Sorbic acid undergoes the normal acid reactions forming salts, esters, amides, and acid chlorides. Industrially, the most important compound is the potassium salt because of stabiUty and high water solubiUty. Sodium sorbate [7757-81-5] (E,E form [42788-83-0]) is less stable and not commercially available. The calcium salt [7492-55-9] which has limited solubiUty, has use in packaging (qv) materials.

Nylon resins are made by numerous methods (53) ranging from ester amidation (54) to the Schotten-Baumann synthesis (55). The most commonly used method for making nylon-6,6 and related resins is the heat-induced condensation of monomeric salt complexes (56). In this process, stoichiometric amounts of diacid and diamine react in water to form salts. Water is removed and further heating converts the carboxylate functions to amide linkages. Chain lengths are controlled by small amounts of monofunctional reagents. The molten finished nylon resin can be dkectly extmded to pellets. 

Ethers, esters, amides and imidazolidines containing an epithio group are said to be effective in enhancing the antiwear and extreme pressure peiformance of lubricants. Other uses of thiiranes are as follows fuel gas odorant (2-methylthiirane), improvement of antistatic and wetting properties of fibers and films [poly(ethyleneglycol) ethers of 2-hydroxymethyl thiirane], inhibition of alkene metathesis (2-methylthiirane), stabilizers for poly(thiirane) (halogen adducts of thiiranes), enhancement of respiration of tobacco leaves (thiirane), tobacco additives to reduce nicotine and to reduce phenol levels in smoke [2-(methoxymethyl)thiirane], stabilizers for trichloroethylene and 1,1,1-trichloroethane (2-methylthiirane, 2-hydroxymethylthiirane) and stabilizers for organic compounds (0,0-dialkyldithiophosphate esters of 2-mercaptomethylthiirane). The product of the reaction of aniline with thiirane is reported to be useful in the flotation of zinc sulfide.
