Of nitrogen-containing

A completely different, important type of synthesis, which was developed more recently, takes advantage of the electrophilicity of nitrogen-containing 1,3-dipolar compounds rather than the nucleophilicity of amines or enamines. Such compounds add to multiple bonds, e.g. C—C, C C, C—O, in a [2 + 3 -cycioaddition to form five-membered heterocycles. 

A class of nitrogen containing compounds that was omitted from the section just dis cussed includes mines and their derivatives Immes are formed by the reaction of aide hydes and ketones with ammonia Immes can be reduced to primary amines by catalytic hydrogenation... 

Tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol reacts with ammonia to give a variety of nitrogen containing compounds depending on the conditions employed. Over a barium hydroxide-promoted skeletal nickel—aluminum catalyst, 2-tetrahydrofurfur5iarnine [4795-29-3] is produced (113—115). With paHadium on alumina catalyst in the vapor phase (250—300°C), pyridine [110-86-1] is the principal product (116—117) pyridine also is formed using Zn and Cr based catalysts (118,119). At low pressure and 200°C over a reduced nickel catalyst, piperidine is obtained in good yield (120,121). 

Although acetonitrile is one of the more stable nitriles, it undergoes typical nitrile reactions and is used to produce many types of nitrogen-containing compounds, eg, amides (15), amines (16,17) higher molecular weight mono- and dinitriles (18,19) halogenated nitriles (20) ketones (21) isocyanates (22) heterocycles, eg, pyridines (23), and imidazolines (24). It can be trimerized to. f-trimethyltriazine (25) and has been telomerized with ethylene (26) and copolymerized with a-epoxides (27). 

Substrates. Many different types of nitrogen-containing compounds can be hydrogenated to amines, but nitro compounds and nitriles are the most commonly used starting materials. 

Dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate gave first a similar adduct (2) which then added further molecules of furan yielding (3) and subsequently (4). Between 1931 and 1940 the reactions of acetylenedi-carboxylic acid and its dimethyl ester with a number of nitrogen containing heterocyclic compounds were examined, and structures were proposed for the products. Apart from an unpublished investigation of the products from pyridine and dimethyl acetylenedicar-... 

Reversible covalent hydration across C=N bonds occurs in a number of nitrogen-containing heterocycles, including pteridine and its 2- and 6-hydroxy derivatives, quinazoline (as the cation), and 1,4,6-triazanaphthalene (as the cation). Among bases giving this reaction, the neutral molecule exists predominantly as the anhydrous form, whereas the cation contains an increased proportion of the... 

The reversible hydration of nitrogen-containing heterocyclic bases and their hydroxy and mercapto derivatives is acid-base catalyzed and, at constant pH, the reactions obey first-order rate equations. 2 26.27-33... 

Among the variety of nitrogen-containing fulvalenes emerging from types 7-14, X-ray structural determinations have been performed on about 20 representative examples. Tire first crystal structure determination was carried out by application of the folding-molecule method on 3,3 -diphenyl-l,l -bi-isoindolylidene 64 (R = FI) (71CB3108). Tire dimeric isoindolenine system...

Besides simple condensation reactions, valence isomerization reactions, in particular, arc used for the synthesis of unsaturated, eight-membered-ring azaheterocycles. These isomeriz-ations mainly involve rearrangements of nitrogen-containing bicyclo[4.2.0]octatriene or semi-bullvalene systems. 

Potassium is contraindicated in patients who are at risk for experiencing hyperkalemia, such as those with renal failure, oliguria, or azotemia (file presence of nitrogen-containing compounds in the blood), anuria, severe hemolytic reactions, untreated Addison s disease (see Chap. 50), acute dehydration, heat cramps, and any form of hyperkalemia Potassium is used cautiously in patients with renal impairment or adrenal insufficiency, heart disease, metabolic acidosis, or prolonged or severe diarrhea. Concurrent use of potassium with... 

Other thietane derivatives have been obtained by isomerization of nitrogen-containing heterocycles. The reaction of an acyl isothiocyanate (RCONCS) with diphenyldiazomethane gave 20 and this isomerized in solution to the tetraphenyl-3-thietanone 21 <96BSB253>. Additionally, the isoxazolidine 22 was converted into 23 by the action of trimethylsilyl iodide and zinc iodide <96H1211>.
