Corrosion inhibitors are chemical compounds that, when added in adequate (preferably small) amounts to the concrete mixing water, can prevent corrosion of the rebars. These admixtures should not adversely affect the concrete properties (e.g. compressive strength) and the nature and microstructure of the cement paste. Inhibitors -well known in other areas of industry - have been studied since 1960 for reinforcing steel in concrete, mainly in relation to chloride-induced corrosion. A summary of information on steel corrosion inhibitors in concrete have been published (Page and Ngala, 1999 Elsener, 1998) and a state of the art report is to be published shortly by the European Federation of Corrosion (EFC, 1999). 

Corrosion Inhibitors. The corrosion inhibitors used in diesel fuel ate generally similar to those used in gasoline and, like the latter, produce an effect primarily by surface action. If amine additives ate used for detergency, these may provide some corrosion protection as well. 

A second class of herbicides primarily affects ( -carotene desaturase. These herbicides are apparent feedback inhibitors of PD as well. This class of compounds includes dihydropyrones like LS 80707 [90936-96-2] (56) and 6-methylpyridines (57,58). The third class consists of the ben2oylcyclohexane-diones, eg, 2-(4-chloro-2-nitroben2oyl)-5,5-dimethyl-cyclohexane-I,3-dione. This class of atypical bleaching herbicides induces phytoene accumulation when appHed either pre- or post-emergence. However, it does not inhibit phytoene desaturase activity in vitro (59). Amitrole also has been considered a bleaching herbicide, though its main mode of action is inhibition of amino acid synthesis. 

Acetylene is condensed with carbonyl compounds to give a wide variety of products, some of which are the substrates for the preparation of families of derivatives. The most commercially significant reaction is the condensation of acetylene with formaldehyde. The reaction does not proceed well with base catalysis which works well with other carbonyl compounds and it was discovered by Reppe (33) that acetylene under pressure (304 kPa (3 atm), or above) reacts smoothly with formaldehyde at 100°C in the presence of a copper acetyUde complex catalyst. The reaction can be controlled to give either propargyl alcohol or butynediol (see Acetylene-DERIVED chemicals). 2-Butyne-l,4-diol, its hydroxyethyl ethers, and propargyl alcohol are used as corrosion inhibitors. 2,3-Dibromo-2-butene-l,4-diol is used as a flame retardant in polyurethane and other polymer systems (see Bromine compounds Elame retardants). 

Galanthamine (23) is an alkaloid extracted from the common snowdrop Galanthus nivalis. This compound is a long-acting, competitive AChE inhibitor which appears to be somewhat more specific for acetylcholinesterase than plasma butyrylcholinesterase (132). It is well tolerated during long-term treatment (133) and is being evaluated clinically for AD (134). 

The BZ stmcture also has provided a molecular scaffold for a number of peptide receptor ligands (26). Antagonists for the cholecystokinin (CCK-A) receptor, eg, devazepide (65), the thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) receptor, eg, midazolam (66), and the /i -opiate receptor, eg, tifluadom (67), as well as a series of ras famyl transferase inhibitors, eg, BZA-2B (68) (30) have been identified (Table 4). 

Therapeutic opportunities for NO synthons include angina, for which nitroglycerin is effectively used, as well as penile erectile dysfunction. NOS inhibitors have demonstrated some protection in cerebral ischemia models and may be potentially beneficial in alleviating cell death associated with cerebral ischemia. l-NMA is under clinical study for treatment of sepsis. 

Oxidation of LLDPE starts at temperatures above 150°C. This reaction produces hydroxyl and carboxyl groups in polymer molecules as well as low molecular weight compounds such as water, aldehydes, ketones, and alcohols. Oxidation reactions can occur during LLDPE pelletization and processing to protect molten resins from oxygen attack during these operations, antioxidants (radical inhibitors) must be used. These antioxidants (qv) are added to LLDPE resins in concentrations of 0.1—0.5 wt %, and maybe naphthyl amines or phenylenediamines, substituted phenols, quinones, and alkyl phosphites (4), although inhibitors based on hindered phenols are preferred. 

Organophosphoms compounds, primarily phosphonic acids, are used as sequestrants, scale inhibitors, deflocculants, or ion-control agents in oil wells, cooling-tower waters, and boiler-feed waters. Organophosphates are also used as plasticizers and flame retardants in plastics and elastomers, which accounted for 22% of PCl consumed. Phosphites, in conjunction with Hquid mixed metals, such as calcium—zinc and barium—cadmium heat stabilizers, function as antioxidants and stabilizer adjutants. In 1992, such phosphoms-based chemicals amounted to slightly more than 6% of all such plastic additives and represented 8500 t of phosphoms. Because PVC production is expected to increase, the use of phosphoms additive should increase 3% aimually through 1999. 

SSRIs are well tolerated. Adverse effects for compounds in this class include nervousness, tremor, dizziness, headache, insomnia, sexual dysfunction, nausea, and diarrhea. In addition, the tricycHc antidepressant clomipramine (33), which is a potent nonselective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, is approved for treatment of obsessive—compulsive disorder. 

SSRIs are widely used for treatment of depression, as well as, for example, panic disorders and obsessive—compulsive disorder. These dmgs are well recognized as clinically effective antidepressants having an improved side-effect profile as compared to the TCAs and irreversible MAO inhibitors. Indeed, these dmgs lack the anticholinergic, cardiovascular, and sedative effects characteristic of TCAs. Their main adverse effects include nervousness /anxiety, nausea, diarrhea or constipation, insomnia, tremor, dizziness, headache, and sexual dysfunction. The most commonly prescribed SSRIs for depression are fluoxetine (31), fluvoxamine (32), sertraline (52), citalopram (53), and paroxetine (54). SSRIs together represent about one-fifth of total worldwide antidepressant unit sales. 

The second-generation antidepressants, particularly RIMAs and SSRJs, are much less toxic ia overdose than the older TCAs and irreversible MAO inhibitors. However, similar to first-generation antidepressants, the therapeutic effect only becomes manifest after several weeks. Up to one-third of depressed patients are nonresponders. Ideally, an antidepressant would combine a more rapid onset of action with greater clinical efficacy and a higher responder rate, as well as even better tolerability. 

Modulation of second-messenger pathways is also an attractive target upon which to base novel antidepressants. Rolipram [61413-54-5] an antidepressant in the preregistration phase, enhances the effects of noradrenaline though selective inhibition of central phosphodiesterase, an enzyme which degrades cycHc adenosiae monophosphate (cAMP). Modulation of the phosphatidyl iaositol second-messenger system coupled to, for example, 5-HT,, 5-HT,3, or 5-HT2( receptors might also lead to novel antidepressants, as well as to alternatives to lithium for treatment of mania. Novel compounds such as inhibitors of A-adenosyl-methionine or central catechol-0-methyltransferase also warrant attention.
