Sample preparation 0.5-1 mL Plasma + 500 jxL 4-8 p,g/mL IS in water + 500 p,L buffer + 4 mL dichloromethane n-propanol 99 1, extract on a rotamixer, centrifuge at 1200 g. Remove the organic layer and evaporate it to dryness under a stream of air at 30°, add 5 drops toluene, evaporate to dryness under a stream of air at 30°, reconstitute the residue in 200 p,L 50 mM triethylamine in MeCN, add 100 p,L 60 mM ethyl chloroformate in MeCN, after 30 s add 100 pL 1 M 1-leucinamide hydrochloride in MeOH containing 1 M triethylamine, after 2 min add 500 pL 250 mM HCl, extract with 4 mL ethyl acetate. Evaporate the organic layer to dryness under a stream of air at 30°, reconstitute the residue with 100 pL MeCN, add 400 pL 10 mM pH 6.5 phosphate buffer, inject a 60 pL aliquot. (Prepare buffer as follows. Neutralize a 1 M solution of tetrabutylammonium sulfate in water with NaOH, wash 5 times with dichloromethane, wash twice with heptane. Prepare a 100 mM pH 9.6 sodium carbonate buffer containing 0.5 M of the neutralized and washed tetrabutylammonium salt.)... 

Bicyclo[3,l,l]heptanes.—Preparations of bicyclo[3,l,l] heptanes by solvolytic rearrangements of bicyclo[2,2,l]heptanes are noted later. Formation of bicyclo-[3,l,l]heptan-6-ones by solvolytic displacement, for example (157) from (158), is a well established route and is further exemplified by conversion of (159) into (160) and of (161) into (162). The possibility that products are formed via unsaturated ketens by [2 + 2] cycloaddition has been considered.Keten (163), independently generated, did undergo cycloaddition but to give (164), and so it is unlikely that bicyclo[3,l,l]heptanones such as (157) are formed via the keten. 

The dicarboxylation of cyclic alkenes is a useful reaction. All-c.vo-methyl-7-oxabicyclo(2.2.1]heptane-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylate (233) was prepared from the cyclic alkene 232 using Pd on carbon and CuCh in MeOH at room temperature with high diastereoselectivity[216]. The dicarbonylation of cyclopentene... 

The longer perfluoroalkanesulfonic acids are hydroscopic oily Hquids. Distillation of the acid from a mixture of its salt and sulfuric acid gives a hydrated mixture with melting points above 100°C. These acids show the same general solubiUties as trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, but are insoluble in ben2ene, heptane, carbon tetrachloride, and perfluorinated Hquids. AH of the higher perfluoroalkanesulfonic acids have been prepared by electrochemical fluorination (20). 

Diketones are readily transformed to cycHc derivatives, such as cyclopentanones and furans. In this manner, the fragrance dihydrojasmone (3-meth5l-2-pentyl-2-cyclopenten-l-one) is prepared by the base-catalyzed aldol condensation of 2,5-undecanedione. 2,5-Undecanedione is itself prepared from heptanal and methyl vinyl ketone in the presence of thiazoHum salts (329). i7j -Jasmone can be similarly prepared (330,331). 

Stannous Oxalate. Stannous oxalate, Sn(C20 (mol wt 206.71, dec 280°C, sp gr 3.56 at 18°C), is a white crystalline powder, is soluble in hot concentrated hydrochloric acid and mixtures of oxaHc acid and ammonium oxalate, and is insoluble in water, toluene, ethyl acetate, dioctyl phthalate, THF, isomeric heptanes, and acetone (171). It is prepared by precipitation from a solution of stannous chloride and oxaHc acid and is stable indefinitely. 

Titanium Phosphorous Containing Chelates. The reaction of a mixture of mono (alkyl) diacid orthophosphate, di(alkyl)monoacid orthophosphate, and TiCl in a high boiling hydrocarbon solvent such as heptane, with nitrogen-assisted evolution of Hberated HCl, gives a mixture of titanium tetra(mixed alkylphosphate)esters, (H0)(R0)0=P0) Ti(0P=0(0R)2)4 in heptane solution (100). A similar mixture can be prepared by the addition of two moles of P2O5 to mole of TiCl in the presence of six moles of alcohol ... 

Copolymers Containing Carboxylic Groups. A newline of VP/acryhc acid copolymers in powdered form prepared by precipitation polymerization (147) from heptane have been introduced commercially (148). A wide variety of compositions and molecular weights are available, from... 

High Density Polyethylene. High density polyethylene (HDPE), 0.94—0.97 g/cm, is a thermoplastic prepared commercially by two catalytic methods. In one, coordination catalysts are prepared from an aluminum alkyl and titanium tetrachloride in heptane. The other method uses metal oxide catalysts supported on a carrier (see Catalysis). 

The trivial name bisnorisopenicillin has been coined for the 6-acylamino-3-thia-l-a2abicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-2-carboxylic acid (85) structural class. While not extensively investigated, an example of this class has been prepared as shown in Scheme 66 (78JMC413). The following features of this sequence are noteworthy (a) the exclusively cis cycloaddition to form intermediate (86) and (b) the use of the 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl amide blocking group. 

This procedure illustrates a general method for the preparation of 2-hydroxybicyclo[3.2.0]heptanes by copper(I)-catalyzed photobicyclization of 3-hydroxy-1,6-heptadienes, and a general route to the requisite dienes from allyl alcohols by conversion to 4-pentenals and treatment of the latter with vinyl Grignard reagents. 

The effective use of column volume overload for preparative separations was experimentally demonstrated by Scott and Kucera [1]. These authors used a column 25 cm long, 4.6 mm I.D. packed with Partisil silica gel 10 mm particle diameter and employed n-heptane as the mobile phase. The total mass of sample injected was kept constant at 176 mg, 8 mg and 0.3 mg of benzene, naphthalene and anthracene, respectively, but the sample volumes used which contained the same mixture of solutes were 1 pi, 1 ml, 2 ml and 3 ml. The chromatograms of each separation are... 

C) Preparation of Doxepin 1,530 grams of the product from step (B) is suspended in 4.5 liters dry tetrahydrofuran and 6.0 mols of butyl lithium in heptane is added during 1 hour. After an additional 30 minutes, 483 grams of 6,1 I dihydrodibenz-lb.eloxepin-ll-one, prepared as described in Belgian Patent 641,49B, is added to the deep red solution and the reaction was maintained at reflux for 10 hours. Water, 500 ml, is added at room temperature and the solvent is removed in vacuo. The crude residue is treated with 10% hydrochloric acid until acidic (pH 2) and then 1.5 liters benzene is added. After stirring, the mixture separates into 3 phases (an insoluble hydrochloride salt product phase, an aqueous phase and an organic phase). 

Flash chromatography is widely employed for the purification of crude products obtained by synthesis at a research laboratory scale (several grams) or isolated as extracts from natural products or fermentations. The solid support is based on silica gel, and the mobile phase is usually a mixture of a hydrocarbon, such as hexane or heptane, with an organic modifier, e.g. ethyl acetate, driven by low pressure air. (Recently the comparison of flash chromatography with countercurrent chromatography (CCC), a technique particularly adapted to preparative purposes, has been studied for the separation of nonchiral compounds [90].)... 

The oxazaborolidines are easily prepared by heating ephedrine with borane dimethyl sulfide or the appropriate boronate ester. The aluminum reagent C is obtained by mixing ephedrine and trimethylaluminum. Borolidinc A is superior to its methyl derivative B and to the aluminum analog C. The diastereomeric borolidine obtained from borane and (S,S)-pseu-doephedrine failed to show any cnantioselectivity25. A variety of aromatic aldehydes can be enantioselectively alkylated in the presence of A, however, with heptanal the enantioselectivity is poor25. 

Epoxyeyclohexanone has been prepared in 30% yield4 by epoxi-dation of 2-cyclohexen-l-one with alkaline hydrogen peroxide, using a procedure described for isophorone oxide (4,4,6-trimethyl-7-oxabicyclo[4.1.0]heptan-2-one).5 A better yield (66%) was obtained using f r/-butyl hydroperoxide (1,1-dimethylethylhydroperoxide) and Triton B in benzene solution.6 The procedure described here is simple and rapid.
