Other one-phase preparations of bimetallic nanoparticles include NOct4(BHEt3) (Oct = octyl, Et = ethyl) reduction of platinum and ruthenium chlorides to give Pt/Ru(l/1) nanoparticles by Bonnemann et al. [102-104], sono-chemical reduction of gold and palladium ions to provide Au/Pd nanoparticles by Mizukoshi et al. [105,106], and NaBH4 reduction of PtCl - and PdCl - dendrimer complexes to give dendrimer-stabilized Pd/Pt nanoparticles by Crooks et al. [107]. 

Ethylamine, monoethylamine, CH3CH2NH2-B.p. 19 C. Prepared by reduction of acetonitrile or by heating ethyl chloride with alcoholic ammonia under pressure. It is a strong base and will displace ammonia from ammonium salts. Forms a crystalline hydrochloride and also crystalline compounds with various metallic chlorides. 

With this assumption, the rate constants for reductive removal ofan ethyl, an isopropyl, and a teii-butyl group can be estimated as follows ... 

In an experiment, a slight excess of the hydride is employed to ensure the complete reduction the unused hydride must then be destroyed. This can be done by the cautious addition of (rt) water, or (6) ordinary undried ether, which will ensure that the supply of water is both small and gradual, or (c) an ester such as ethyl acetate, which will be reduced to ethanol. The first of these methods, namely the addition of water, is hazardous and should be avoided. 

In absolute ethanol solution, the ethyl ether and the corresponding hydrocarbon are formed, the latter by reduction of the diazonium compound by the ethanol, which is itself oxidised to acetaldehyde ... 

Note. Hydrocarbons such as ethyl-benzene can also be prepared by the Clemmensen reduction of the corresponding ketone. This is exemplified by the reduction of methylacetophenone (p. 290)]. 

NOTE. Many esters reduce Fehling s solution on warming. This reduction occurs rapidly with the alkyl esters of many aliphatic acids, but scarcely at all with similar esters of aromatic acids (f.g., ethyl oxalate reduces, but ethyl benzoate does not). Note also that this is a property of the ester itself thus both methyl and ethyl oxalate reduce Fehling s solution very rapidly, whereas neither oxalic acid, nor sodium oxalate, nor a mixture of the alcohol and oxalic acid (or sodium oxalate), reduces the solution. 

Extremely dry (or super-dry ) ethyl alcohol. The yields in several organic preparations e.g., malonic ester syntheses, reduction with sodium and ethyl alcohol, veronal synthesis) are considerably improved by the use of alcohol of 99-8 per cent, purity or higher. This very high grade ethyl alcohol may be prepared in several ways from commercial absolute alcohol or from the product of dehydration of rectified spirit with quicklime (see under 4). 

Reduction of esters of monobasic acids with sodium and absolute ethyl alcohol (method of Bouveault and Blanc), for example ... 

Secondary and tertiary amines are not generally prepared in the laboratory. On the technical scale methylaniline is prepared by heating a mixture of aniline hydrochloride (55 parts) and methyl alcohol (16 parts) at 120° in an autoclave. For dimethylaniline, aniline and methyl alcohol are mixed in the proportion of 80 78, 8 parts of concentrated sulphuric acid are added and the mixture heated in an autoclave at 230-235° and a pressure of 25-30 atmospheres. Ethyl- and diethyl-anihne are prepared similarly. One method of isolating pure methyl- or ethyl-aniline from the commercial product consists in converting it into the Y-nitroso derivative with nitrous acid, followed by reduction of the nitroso compound with tin and hydrochloric acid ... 

Reduction of nitrobenzene in methyl or ethyl alcoholic sodium hydroxide solution with zinc powder leads to azobenzene or hydrazobenzene according to the proportion of zinc powder employed ... 

Place 35 ml. of a M solution of aluminium tsopropoxide or 7 g. of solid aluminium tsopropoxide, 450 ml. of dry isopropyl alcohol and 21 g. of purified benzaldehyde (Section IV,115) in a 1 litre round-bottomed flask. Fit a short reflux condenser (no water in the cooling jacket) or better a Hahn condenser (2) (containing a 1 cm. layer of ethyl alcohol in the iimer tube) to the flask and arrange for slow distillation from a water bath at the rate of 3-6 drops per minute. Continue the heating until a negative test for acetone is obtained after 5 minutes of total reflux (6-9 hours) if the volume of the mixture falls below 200 ml. during the reduction, add more isopropyl alcohol. Remove the reflux or Hahn condenser and distil off (Fig. II, 13, 3) most of the isopropyl alcohol under atmospheric pressure from a suitable oil bath. Hydrolyse the... 

The p-substituted amino ketones can be reduced readily to the more stable P-dialkylamino alcohols, many of which are useful local anaesthetics. Thus the local anaesthetic Tutocaine is made from the Mannich base derived from formaldehyde, methyl ethyl ketone and dimethylamine, followed by reduction and conversion into the p-aminobenzoate ... 

With the dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCQ reagent racemization is more pronounced in polar solvents such as DMF than in CHjCl2, for example. An efficient method for reduction of racemization in coupling with DCC is to use additives such as N-hydroxysuccinimide or l-hydroxybenzotriazole. A possible explanation for this effect of nucleophilic additives is that they compete with the amino component for the acyl group to form active esters, which in turn reaa without racemization. There are some other condensation agents (e.g. 2-ethyl-7-hydroxybenz[d]isoxazolium and l-ethoxycarbonyl-2-ethoxy-l,2-dihydroquinoline) that have been found not to lead to significant racemization. They have, however, not been widely tested in peptide synthesis.
