The dianhydride of perylene tetracarboxylic acid is converted into the pigment form by preparing the corresponding alkali salt and then reprecipitating the compound with an acid. The dianhydride is formed after separating the acid by thermal aftertreatment at 100 to 200°C, possibly under pressure, with an organic solvent. The list of suitable media includes alcohols, ketones, carboxylic acid esters, hydrocarbons, and dipolar aprotic solvents. 

Solvents can be classified into three categories according to their polarity namely, polar protic, dipolar aprotic and non-polar. Most of the common solvents fall under one of following chemical classes Aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, phenols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, halogen-substituted hydrocarbons, amines, nitriles, nitro-derivatives, amides and sulfur-containing solvents (Marcus, 1998). In certain cases a mixture of two or more solvents would perform better than a single solvent.

Begin to recognize the important functional groups alkene, alkyne, alcohol, ether, aldehyde, ketone, carboxylic acid, ester, amine, nitrile, amide, thiol, and thioether. 

Functional groups containing n-bonds are more reactive because ir-bond is weaker and can be easily broken, e.g. aromatic rings, alkenes, alkynes, aldehydes and ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides, nitriles, etc. 

There are non-systematic number roots for hydrocarbon derivatives containing acyl groups or derived from acyl groups. These are the ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, nitriles, and amides ... 

Food, flavors consist of numerous compounds, none of which alone is characteristic of specific food. Classes of compounds which emcompass food flavors are - hydrocarbons (aliphatic, ali-cyclic, aromatic) carbonyls (aldehydes, ketones) carboxylic acids, esters, imides, anhydrides alcohols, phenols, ethers alkylamines, alkylimines aliphatic sulfur compounds (thiols, mono-, di- and tri-sulfides) nitrogen heterocyclics (pyrroles, pyrazines, pyridines) sulfur heterocylics (thiophenes, thiazoles, trithiolane, thialidine) and oxygen-heterocyclics (lactone, pyrone, furan). Discussion will be limited to striking developments in heterocyclics. 

Phenyl tellurium iodide and lithium enolates derived from ketones, carboxylic acid esters, or carboxylic acid amides, in tetrahydrofuran at — 78°, produced a-phenyltelluro carbonyl compounds7. 

This knowledge was applied for even more complicated, bifunctional compounds such as phenyl glycidic acid methyl ester 3 to yield alpha-ketone carboxylic acid esters 4 such as 3-phenylpyroracemic acid methylesters (Eq. 15.2.2).

By increasing the temperature over > 300°C, the phenyl glycidic acid esters are converted to phenyl acid esters. That occurs in a consecutive decarbonylation of a-ketone carboxylic acid esters as intermediate. In the case of p-tert-butyl glycidic acid ester in the presence of a boron-pentasil zeolite at 350 °C the ratio between a-ketone carboxylic acid ester and the phenyl acetic acid ester is 65 35. 

Further kinetic evidence for the importance of enols comes from work on the base-catalyzed condensations of carbonyl-containing compounds. There are a number of such reactions characteristic of aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, etc. Of these the most elementary appear to be the aldol condensations, which are prototypes of the others. These reactions can be represented by the equation... 

Nearly 1000 compounds have so far been identified in the volatile constituents of meat from beef, chicken, mutton and pork (6). The largest number of volatiles has been determined in beef and these were representative of most classes of organic compounds. Hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, lactones, ethers, sulfur and halogenated compounds as well as different classes of heterocyclic substances (Figure 1) namely furans, pyrldlnes, pyrazines, pyrroles, oxazol(in)es, thiazol(in)es, thiophenes were present in cooked meat flavor volatiles as shown in Table I. Many of these compounds are unimportant to the flavor of meat and some may have been artifacts (16). 

The azolides are able to participate in a wide variety of nucleophilic olysis reactions which form aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, thiol esters, hydrazides and anhydrides (Scheme 143). In addition, 1-trifluoroacetylimidazole (252) is a convenient reagent for the conversion of aldoximes into nitriles (Scheme 144) (81601579). 

The formation of alcohols by the reduction of aldehydes and ketones, carboxylic acids, esters and epoxides is summarized in Scheme 2.9. The change in the strength of the reducing agents, from the relatively mild sodium borohydride to the vigorous lithium aluminium hydride, reflects the difference in the electron deficiency of the carbonyl group which is being reduced. 

The transformation of an active CH compound into the corresponding diazo derivative with -toluenesulfonyl azide has been designated a diazo transfer reaction and possesses a variety of preparative uses. The method has been useful for the syntheses of diazo derivatives of cyclopentadiene, 1,3-dicar-bonyl compounds, 1,3-disulfonyl compounds,1,3-keto-sulfonyl compounds, ketones, " carboxylic acid esters, and /3-keto imines. Further reaction of these diazo intermediates can lead to azo compounds,"- " 1,2,3-triazoles, and pyrazolinones. ... 

The reaction may proceed as homo- or cross-dehydrodimerization [105] and takes place with a wide range of substituted substrates such as higher alcohols, ethers, silanes, and partially fluorinated alcohols and ethers, but also with ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, amides, and amines [106]. Besides the formation of 1,2-diols from saturated alcohols, unsaturated substrates are also dimerized under hydrogen to form l,n-diols other than the 1,2-isomers [107]. The regio-selectivity of the diols is controlled by the formation of the most stable radical, which then dimerizes. 

They are often blended into compounds that are developed for injection molding applications. Where such an additive is absent, molded components tend to stick to mold surfaces. To prevent this, mold surfaces must be treated between every cycle, or they can be coated with a range of semipermanent mold release treatments. Inclusion of an internal release agent prevents mold surface build-up, surface charring, and simplifies production. Internal mold release agents may include hydrocarbons, alcohols, carboxylic acids, halogenated compounds, ketones, carboxylic acid esters, amides, metal salts, and silicone compounds. 

This group is found in aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters and acid derivatives and is the main functional group in compounds such as amides.
