In 1838, Frederic Kuhlmann discovered die formation of nitrogen oxide (NO) during die catalytic oxidation of ammonia. Wilhelm Ostwald developed die production mediods in 1902 and established die base for today s major commercial processes. However, industrial production began only after Haber and Bosch developed the synthesis of ammonia around 1916. 

As shown by the Italian school, the formation of isoxazole derivatives by the action of nitric acid or nitrogen oxides on acetylene derivatives and related reactions proceeds through intermediate nitrile oxides and must, therefore, be included with this type of synthesis. 

Of the few recent publications in this field two papers are noteworthy these are Cramer s report on the synthesis of 3,3 -diisoxazolyl in 60-70% yield from acetylene and nitrogen oxides and on the synthesis of a mixture of 5,5 -diisoxazolyls [34 35, R = Me2C(OH)] from fulminic acid and diacetyiene. ... 

The process will adversely affect air quality by releasing nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, carbon monoxides and other particulates into the atmosphere. Better control of the conversion conditions and better control of emissions can make the process cleaner, yet technology cannot do anything to curb carbon emissions. Since much of the carbon in coal is converted to carbon dioxide in the synthesis process, and is not part of the synthetic fuel itself, the amount of carbon dioxide that will be released to the environment during combustion is 50 to 100 percent more than coal, and around three times more than natural gas.

Violent explosions which occurred at —100 to —180°C in ammonia synthesis gas units were traced to the formation of explosive addition products of dienes and oxides of nitrogen, produced from interaction of nitrogen oxide and oxygen. Laboratory experiments showed that the addition products from 1,3-butadiene or cyclopentadiene formed rapidly at about — 150°C, and ignited or exploded on warming to —35 to — 15°C. The unconjugated propadiene, and alkenes or acetylene reacted slowly and the products did not ignite until +30 to +50°C [1], This type of derivative ( pseudo-nitrosite ) was formerly used (Wallach) to characterise terpene hydrocarbons. Further comments were made later [2],... 

Reactive nitrogen species are another factor of free radical damage in rheumatoid arthritis, although their role is less studied than that of oxygen radicals. Stichtenoth and Frolich [242] pointed out that the inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis had beneficial effects in humans. Mazzetti et al. [243] found that IL-1(3 stimulated NO production in RA chondrocytes. We demonstrated that NO synthase of RA neutrophils generated the enhanced amount of peroxynitrite [234]. Nitric oxide and oxygen radicals are also important inducers of death of human osteoarthritic synoviocytes [244].

Nitrogen heterocycles continue to be valuable reagents and provide new synthetic approaches such as NITRONES FOR INTRAMOLECULAR -1,3 - DIPOLAR CYCLOADDITIONS HEXAHYDRO-1,3,3,6-TETRAMETHYL-2,l-BENZISOX AZOLINE. Substituting on a pyrrolidine can be accomplished by using NUCLEOPHILIC a - sec - AM IN O ALKYL ATION 2-(DI-PHENYLHYDROXYMETHYL)PYRROLIDINE. Arene oxides have considerable importance for cancer studies, and the example ARENE OXIDE SYNTHESIS PHENANTHRENE 9,10-OXIDE has been included.
