Song and coworkers further utilized squaramide 33 for methanolytic desym-metrization of meso-glutaric anhydrides (Scheme 10.35) [113, 114]. The authors attributed the high enantioselectivity to the fact that the cinchona-derived dimeric squaramide catalyst does not self-associate. The catalyst can be easily recovered from the reaction mixture after extractive acid/base work up. A thiourea-catalyzed version of this process had been reported by the same authors in 2008 [115]. 

For chemical processes, some examples are the elimination of aromatics by sulfonation, the elimination of olefins by bromine addition on the double bond (bromine number), the elimination of conjugated diolefins as in the case of the maleic anhydride value (MAV), and the extraction of bases or acids by contact with aqueous acidic or basic solutions. 

Dilute sodium hydroxide solution (and also sodium carbonate solution and sodium bicarbonate solution) can be employed for the removal of an organic acid from its solution in an organic solvent, or for the removal of acidic impurities present in a water-insoluble solid or liquid. The extraction is based upon the fact that the sodium salt of the acid is soluble in water or in dilute alkali, but is insoluble in the organic solvent. Similarly, a sparingly soluble phenol, e.g., p-naphthol, CioH,.OH, may be removed from its solution in an organic solvent by treatment with sodium hydroxide solution. 

The solution will then contain the free acid and the hydrochloride of the base either of these may separate if sparingly soluble. If a sohd crystallises from the cold solution, filter, test with sodium bicarbonate solution compare Section 111,85, (i) and compare the m.p. with that of the original compound. If it is a hydrolysis product, examine it separately. Otherwise, render the filtrate alkahne with sodium hydroxide solution and extract the base with ether if the presence of the unchanged acyl canpound is suspected, extract the base with weak acid. Identify the base in the usual manner (see Section IV, 100). The acid will be present as the sodium salt in the alkaline extract and may be identified as described in Section IV,175. 

In a simple liquid-liquid extraction the solute is partitioned between two immiscible phases. In most cases one of the phases is aqueous, and the other phase is an organic solvent such as diethyl ether or chloroform. Because the phases are immiscible, they form two layers, with the denser phase on the bottom. The solute is initially present in one phase, but after extraction it is present in both phases. The efficiency of a liquid-liquid extraction is determined by the equilibrium constant for the solute s partitioning between the two phases. Extraction efficiency is also influenced by any secondary reactions involving the solute. Examples of secondary reactions include acid-base and complexation equilibria.

The concentration of o-phthalic acid in an organic solvent, such as n-butanol, may be determined by an acid-base titration using aqueous NaOH as the titrant. As the titrant is added, the o-phthalic acid is extracted into the aqueous... 

The (I)-(III)-samples sorption ability investigation for cationic dyes microamounts has shown that for DG the maximum rate of extraction is within 70-90 % at pH 3. The isotherm of S-type proves the physical character of solution process and a seeming ionic exchange. Maximal rate of F extraction for all samples was 40-60 % at pH 8 due to electrostatic forces. The anionic dyes have more significant affinity to surface researching Al Oj-samples comparatively with cationic. The forms of obtained soi ption isotherms atpH have mixed character of H,F-type chemosorption mechanism of fonuation of a primary monolayer with the further bilayers formation due to H-bonds and hydrophobic interactions. The different values of pH p for sorbents and dyes confirm their multifunctional character and distinctions in the acid-base properties of adsoi ption centers.

These can be purified by extracting acidic and basic impurities with aqueous base or acid, respectively. However, they are somewhat sensitive to strong alkali which slowly cleaves the disulfide bond. TTie lower-melting members can be fractionally distilled under vacuum. The high members can be recrystallised from alcohol, toluene or glacial acetic acid. 

LiOH, DMF, HSCH2CO2H, 93-98% yield. This method has the advantage that the thioether by-products can be washed out by acid/base extraction. ... 

After the furfurel has all been added and the reaction has subsided, the residue is cooled, diluted with water, made strongly alkaline and distilled until all volatile substances are removed. The distillate is then made acid with formic acid and distilled with steam as long as nonbasic substances are carried over by the steam. The residue is then made strongly basic with caustic soda and the volatile amines again distilled with steem. The distillate is then treated with strong alkali and then extracted with ether to extract the base. The extract is dried by the addition of caustic potash, the ether removed and the residual amine purified by distillation. Furfuryl dimethyl amine boils over the range 145°C to 150°C. 

These phenomena can be explained by the (hard-soft) acid-base principal as follows C=N-OH is a soft base, hence has stronger affinity towards soft basic metal cations than hard metal cations. The strong participation of the N-OH group in complex formation was further confirmed by the results shown for extraction experiments with 5 and 6. 

The liquid-liquid (solvent) extraction is based on the extraction of various ions into either an organic or aqueous phase according to the complex ion structure. The structure of the complex ions generally depends on the solution parameters and, first and foremost, on the acidity of the aqueous solution. At... 

Several modifications of procedures based on halophosphonium ion have been developed. Triphenylphosphine and imidazole in combination with iodine or bromine gives good conversion of alcohols to iodides or bromides.22 An even more reactive system consists of chlorodiphenylphosphine, imidazole, and the halogen,23 and has the further advantage that the resulting phosphorus by-product diphenylphosphinic acid, can be extracted with base during product workup. 

Oxidation by the Dess-Martin Reagent. Another reagent that has become important for laboratory synthesis is known as the Dess-Martin reagent,28 which is a hypervalent iodine(V) compound.29 The reagent is used in inert solvents such as chloroform or acetonitrile and gives rapid oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols. The by-product, o-iodosobenzoic acid, can be extracted with base and recycled. 

An analytical solution for molecules with alkaline functionality is acid/base titration. In this technique, the polymer is dissolved, but not precipitated prior to analysis. In this way, the additive, even if polymer-bound, is still in solution and titratable. This principle has also been applied for the determination of 0.01 % stearic acid and sodium stearate in SBR solutions. The polymer was diluted with toluene/absolute ethanol mixed solvent and stearic acid was determined by titration with 0.1 M ethanolic NaOH solution to the m-cresol purple endpoint similarly, sodium stearate was titrated with 0.05 M ethanolic HC1 solution [83]. Also long-chain acid lubricants (e.g. stearic acid) in acrylic polyesters were quantitatively determined by titration of the extract. 

Here we shall confine ourselves to the solvents benzene and 1,2-dichloroethane (class 8). Considering benzene, many investigators have demonstrated since the 1930s the feasibility of titrations in this solvent using both potentiometric and spectrophotometric methods, paying much attention to acid-base indicator reactions under the influence of primary, secondary and tertiary amines. Association of carboxylic acids in benzene was studied at a later stage, mainly on the basis of colligative properties, IR spectroscopy and solvent extraction. ... 

The above-mentioned results indicate the additive effect of protons. Actually, a catalytic process is formed by protonation of the metal-oxygen bond instead of silylation. 2,6-Lutidine hydrochloride or 2,4,6-collidine hydrochloride serves as a proton source in the Cp2TiCl2-catalyzed pinacol coupling of aromatic aldehydes in the presence of Mn as the stoichiometric reduc-tant [30]. Considering the pKa values, pyridinium hydrochlorides are likely to be an appropriate proton source. Protonation of the titanium-bound oxygen atom permits regeneration of the active catalyst. High diastereoselectivity is attained by this fast protonation. Furthermore, pyridine derivatives can be recovered simply by acid-base extraction or distillation.
