Dithiane metallate alkylation was introduced by Corey and Seebach in 1965 and has served well as a method for forging carbon-carbon bonds at a masked carbonyl group by nucleophilic displacement. The method, an example of an umpolung process, has found extensive use for advanced fragment assembly in target-directed synthesis. Contributions from the Smith research group at the University of Pennsylvania, in particular, have served to demonstrate the power of this... 

PQ Corporation of Valley Forge, Pennsylvania (Seybold, 1992) reported test results using their silica adsorbent, Britesorb-RlOO. In their test, french-fried potatoes were made in a restaurant type fryer. The product was fried for 8h per day. Fresh oil was added to the fryer after so many batches of product. The oil was treated with 0.7% Britesorb R-lOO, mixed for 5-10 min, filtered, and stored overnight to be used the next day. Oil breakdown products, such as polar compounds, polymers and free fatty acids were measured. In addition, oil color and soap content in the oil were also monitored. Most significant differences between Britesorb R-lOO and the other adsorbents were noticed in the soap and polar materials. Results from these tests are listed in Tables 11.3 and 11.4. The results indicate that Britesorb R-lOO is a superior adsorbent compared to other commercially available magnesium and aluminum silicate adsorbents.
