A wide range of experimental conditions for the CuAAC have been employed since its discovery, underscoring the robustness of the process and its compatibility with most functional groups, solvents, and additives, regardless of the source of the catalyst. The most commonly used protocols and their advantages and limitations are discussed below, and representative experimental procedures are described at the end of this chapter. 

The choice for the type of LC-FTIR coupling (flow cell or solvent-elimination) depends on the particular application of the user, where aspects such as type of spectral information needed, required sensitivity, and ease of use are main criteria. Flow-cell LC-FTIR is relatively simple and straightforward, and has developed into a special-purpose technique that can be used in a routine fashion for the monitoring of major mixture constituents with specific functional groups. Solvent-elimination LC-FTIR is somewhat more complicated requiring (sometimes complex) evaporation interfaces, but allows characterization of minor sample components with a high level of confidence. At present, the practical application of FTIR detection in LC is still quite limited. 

Since majority of APIs contain one or more acidic or basic functional groups, solvents used for HPLC sample preparation may require pH control to influence the ionizable state of the compoimds in a similar fashion to what is done for most... 

If a catalyst is to work well in solution, it (and tire reactants) must be sufficiently soluble and stable. Most polar catalysts (e.g., acids and bases) are used in water and most organometallic catalysts (compounds of metals witli organic ligands bonded to tliem) are used in organic solvents. Some enzymes function in aqueous biological solutions, witli tlieir solubilities detennined by the polar functional groups (R groups) on tlieir outer surfaces. 

Olah s original preparative nitrations were carried out with mixtures of the aromatic compound and nitronium salt alone or in ether, and later with sulpholan as the solvent. High yields of nitro-compounds were obtained from a wide range of aromatic compounds, and the anhydrous conditions have obvious advantages when functional groups such as cyano, alkoxycarbonyl, or halogenocarbonyl are present. The presence of basic fimctions raises difficulties with pyridine no C-nitration occurs, i-nitropyridinium being formed. ... 

The less hindered f/ans-olefins may be obtained by reduction with lithium or sodium metal in liquid ammonia or amine solvents (Birch reduction). This reagent, however, attacks most polar functional groups (except for carboxylic acids R.E.A. Dear, 1963 J. Fried, 1968), and their protection is necessary (see section 2.6). 

The oxidation of higher alkenes in organic solvents proceeds under almost neutral conditions, and hence many functional groups such as ester or lac-tone[26,56-59], sulfonate[60], aldehyde[61-63], acetal[60], MOM ether[64], car-bobenzoxy[65], /-allylic alcohol[66], bromide[67,68], tertiary amine[69], and phenylselenide[70] can be tolerated. Partial hydrolysis of THP ether[71] and silyl ethers under certain conditions was reported. Alcohols are oxidized with Pd(II)[72-74] but the oxidation is slower than the oxidation of terminal alkenes and gives no problem when alcohols are used as solvents[75,76]. 

The intramolecular reaction oF allcenes with various O and N functional groups offers useful synthetic methods for heterocycles[13,14,166]. The reaction of unsaturated carboxylic acids affords lactones by either exo- or endo-cyclization depending on the positions of the double bond. The reaction of sodium salts of the 3-alkenoic acid 143 and 4-alkenoic acid 144 with Li2PdCl4 affords mostly five-membcrcd lactones in 30-40% yields[167]. Both 5-hexe-noic acid (145) and 4-hexenoic acid (146) are converted to five- or six-mem-bered lactones depending on the solvents and bases[168]. Conjugated 2,4-pentadienoic acid (147) is cyclized with Li2PdCl4 to give 2-pyrone (148) in water[i69]. 

In contrast to alcohols with their nch chemical reactivity ethers (compounds contain mg a C—O—C unit) undergo relatively few chemical reactions As you saw when we discussed Grignard reagents m Chapter 14 and lithium aluminum hydride reduc tions m Chapter 15 this lack of reactivity of ethers makes them valuable as solvents m a number of synthetically important transformations In the present chapter you will learn of the conditions m which an ether linkage acts as a functional group as well as the methods by which ethers are prepared... 

The copolymer composition equation relates the r s to either the ratio [Eq. (7.15)] or the mole fraction [Eq. (7.18)] of the monomers in the feedstock and repeat units in the copolymer. To use this equation to evaluate rj and V2, the composition of a copolymer resulting from a feedstock of known composition must be measured. The composition of the feedstock itself must be known also, but we assume this poses no problems. The copolymer specimen must be obtained by proper sampling procedures, and purified of extraneous materials. Remember that monomers, initiators, and possibly solvents are involved in these reactions also, even though we have been focusing attention on the copolymer alone. The proportions of the two kinds of repeat unit in the copolymer is then determined by either chemical or physical methods. Elemental analysis has been the chemical method most widely used, although analysis for functional groups is also employed. 

In contrast, aromatic ketones are high boiling, colorless Hquids that generally have a fragrant odor and are almost insoluble in water. They are useful as intermediates in chemical manufacture. Functionalized and cycHc ketones are also good solvents. Ring size and the type and location of functional groups affect odor, color, and reactivity of these ketones. 

Other Organolithium Compounds. Organoddithium compounds have utiHty in anionic polymerization of butadiene and styrene. The lithium chain ends can then be converted to useflil functional groups, eg, carboxyl, hydroxyl, etc (139). Lewis bases are requHed for solubdity in hydrocarbon solvents.
