The structure and function of some natural macromolecules containing metal complexes are described in more detail in Chapter 2. The following main Chapters, 3 through 8, include various examples of the formation, synthesis and structures of metal-containing macromolecules. Then Chapters 9 through 14 review some important properties of such materials. Several chapters also contain an experimental part illustrated with selected preparations and investigations of some properties.

The preparation of amines by the methods described m this section involves the prior synthesis and isolation of some reducible material that has a carbon-nitrogen bond an azide a nitrile a nitro substituted arene or an amide The following section describes a method that combines the two steps of carbon-nitrogen bond formation and reduction into a single operation Like the reduction of amides it offers the possibility of prepar mg primary secondary or tertiary amines by proper choice of starting materials... 

Liquid Fuels via Methanol Synthesis and Conversion. Methanol is produced catalyticaHy from synthesis gas. By-products such as ethers, formates, and higher hydrocarbons are formed in side reactions and are found in the cmde methanol product. Whereas for many years methanol was produced from coal, after World War II low cost natural gas and light petroleum fractions replaced coal as the feedstock. 

Those herbicides that block mitotic entry decrease or prevent the formation of mitotic figures in meristems. Amino acid, protein, RNA, DNA, and ATP synthesis and/or utilization can all attest cell growth (163,166). Although not registered as herbicides, cycloheximide [66-81-9] inhibits mitotic entry by inhibiting protein synthesis (167) hydroxyurea/727-(97-/7 inhibits DNA synthesis (168) and actinomycin D [50-76-0] nh2oix.s RNA synthesis (167). 

Ring Synthesis From Nonheterocyclic Compounds. These methods may be further classified based on the number of bonds formed during the pyridine ring formation. Synthesis of a-picoline (2) from 5-oxohexanenitrile is a one-bond formation reaction (eq. 16) (49). The nitrile is obtained by reaction between acetone and acrylonitrile (50). If both reaction steps are considered together, the synthesis must be considered a two-bond forming one, ie, formation of (2) from acetone and acrylonitrile in a single step comes under the category of two-bond formation reaction. 

In addition to chemical synthesis and enhanced oil recovery, gaseous carbon dioxide is used in the carbonated beverage industry. Carbon dioxide gas under pressure is introduced into mbber and plastic mixes, and on pressure release a foamed product is produced. Carbon dioxide and inert gas mixtures rich in carbon dioxide are used to purge and fiH industrial equipment to prevent the formation of explosive gas mixtures. 

The influence of Zn-deposition on Cu(lll) surfaces on methanol synthesis by hydrogenation of CO2 shows that Zn creates sites stabilizing the formate intermediate and thus promotes the hydrogenation process [2.44]. Further publications deal with methane oxidation by various layered rock-salt-type oxides [2.45], poisoning of vana-dia in VOx/Ti02 by K2O, leading to lower reduction capability of the vanadia, because of the formation of [2.46], and interaction of SO2 with Cu, CU2O, and CuO to show the temperature-dependence of SO2 absorption or sulfide formation [2.47]. 

The idea of kinetic versus thermodynamic control can be illustrated by discussing briefly the case of formation of enolate anions from unsymmetrical ketones. This is a very important matter for synthesis and will be discussed more fully in Chapter 1 of Part B. Most ketones, highly symmetric ones being the exception, can give rise to more than one enolate. Many studies have shown tiiat the ratio among the possible enolates that are formed depends on the reaction conditions. This can be illustrated for the case of 3-methyl-2-butanone. If the base chosen is a strong, sterically hindered one and the solvent is aptotic, the major enolate formed is 3. If a protic solvent is used or if a weaker base (one comparable in basicity to the ketone enolate) is used, the dominant enolate is 2. Enolate 3 is the kinetic enolate whereas 2 is the thermodynamically favored enolate. 

The addition of carbon nucleophile, including organometallic compounds, enolates, or enols, and ylides to carbonyl gro is an important method of formation of carbon-carbon bonds. Such reactions are- ctremely important in synthesis and will be discussed extensively in Part B. Here, we will examine some of the fundamental mechanistic aspects of addition of carbon nucleophiles to carbonyl groups. 

Thus, methods are now becoming available such that process systems can be designed to manufacture crystal products of desired chemical and physical properties and characteristics under optimal conditions. In this chapter, the essential features of methods for the analysis of particulate crystal formation and subsequent solid-liquid separation operations discussed in Chapters 3 and 4 will be recapitulated. The interaction between crystallization and downstream processing will be illustrated by practical examples and problems highlighted. Procedures for industrial crystallization process analysis, synthesis and optimization will then be considered and aspects of process simulation, control and sustainable manufacture reviewed. 

The synthesis and condensation reactions of 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl vinyl ketone with enamines and ketones were investigated [57J (equation 38) (Table 13). These reactions lead to the formation of 2-trifluoromethylcyclohexenones. 

Although the emphasis in this chapter has been on tbe synthesis and mechanism of formation of simple enamines, brief mention will be made of the addition of amines to activated acetylenes to indicate the interest and activity in this area of substituted enamines. Since such additions tend to be stereospecific, inclusion in this section seems apropos. The addition of amines to acetylenes has been much studied 130), but the assigning of the stereochemistry about the newly formed double bond could not be done unequivocally until the techniques of NMR spectroscopy were well developed. In the research efforts described below, NMR spectroscopy was used to determine isomer content and to follow the progress of some of the reactions. 

We next consider the synthesis and chemical reactions of the oxides of chlorine. Because the compounds are strongly endothermic and have large positive free energies of formation it is not possible to prepare them by direct reaction of CI2 and O2. Dichlorine monoxide, CI2O, is best obtained by treating freshly prepared yellow HgO and CI2 gas (diluted with dry air or by dissolution in CCI4) ... 

Other PK variations include microwave conditions, solid-phase synthesis, and the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen as the nitrogen source (27—>28). Hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) is also an excellent ammonia equivalent in the PK synthesis. For example, 2,5-hexanedione and HMDS on alumina gives 2,5-dimethylpyrrole in 81% yield at room temperature. Ammonium formate can be used as a nitrogen source in the PK synthesis of pyrroles from l,4-diaryl-2-butene-l,4-diones under Pd-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation conditions.
