Penta-

In addition to the trihalides, arsenic and antimony form penta-fluorides and antimony a pentachloride it is rather odd that arsenic pentachloride has not yet been prepared. 

Required 3,5-Dinitrobcnzoic acid, 15 g. phosphorus penta-chloride, 17 g. 

Conversion of (3- into a-glucose penta-acetate. Add 0-5 g. of anhydrous zinc chloride rapidly to 25 ml. of acetic anhydride in a 200 ml. round-bottomed flask, attach a reflux condenser, and heat on a boiling water bath for 5-10 minutes to dissolve the solid. Then add 5 g. of the pure P glucose penta-acetate, and heat on a water bath for 30 minutes. Pour the hot solution into 250 ml. of ice water, and stir vigorously in order to induce crystaUisation of the oily drops. Filter the solid at the pump, wash with cold water, and recrystaUise from methylated spirit or from methyl alcohol. Pure a-glucose penta-acetate, m.p. 110-111°, will be obtained. Confirm its identity by a mixed m.p. determination. 

Acetates. Complete acetylation of all the hydroxyl groups is desirable in order to avoid mixtures. In some cases, the completely acetylated sugars may be obtained in the a- and p-forms depending upon the catalyst, e.g., zinc chloride or sodium acetate, that is employed in the acetylation. The experimental details for acetylation may be easily adapted from those already given for a- and p-glucose penta-acetates (Section 111,137).

Trimethylene dibromide (Section 111,35) is easily prepared from commercial trimethj lene glycol, whilst hexamethylene dibromide (1 O dibromohexane) is obtained by the red P - Br reaction upon the glycol 1 6-hexanediol is prepared by the reduction of diethyl adipate (sodium and alcohol lithium aluminium hydride or copper-chromium oxide and hydrogen under pressure). Penta-methylene dibromide (1 5-dibromopentane) is readily produced by the red P-Brj method from the commercially available 1 5 pentanediol or tetra-hydropyran (Section 111,37). Pentamethylene dibromide is also formed by the action of phosphorus pentabromide upon benzoyl piperidine (I) (from benzoyl chloride and piperidine) ... 

Decane-1 10-dicarboxylic acid from sebacic acid. Convert sebacic acid into the acid chloride by treatment with phosphorus penta-chloride (2 mols) and purify by distillation b.p. 146-143°/2 mm. the yield is almost quantitative. Dissolve the resulting sebacoyl chloride in anhydrous ether and add the solution slowly to an ethereal solution of excess of diazomethane (prepared from 50 g. of nitrosomethylurea) allow the mixture to stand overnight. Remove the ether and excess of diazomethane under reduced pressure the residual crystalline 1 8-bis-diazoacetyloctane weighs 19 -3 g. and melts at 91° after crystaUisation from benzene.

The methine chain is obtained by reacting ethyl o-formate (method A ) or ethylisoformanilide (method B) with a bis quaternary salt of bis-(2-thiazolyllbutane. Concerning dyes with fused thiazolo rings pyrrolo[2. lb]thiazoIe. thiazolo[2.3a]indole. thiazolo[2.3c]1.4-benzox-azine. the a carbon directly linked to the carbon 2 of the thiazoJe ring is also responsible for the classical syntheses giving trimethine or penta-methine dyes. 

Hydroxyalkylthiazoles are also obtained by cyclization or from alkoxyalkyl-thiazoles by hydrolysis (36, 44, 45, 52, 55-57) and by lithium aluminium hydride reduction of the esters of thiazolecarboxylic acids (58-60) or of the thiazoleacetic adds. The Cannizzaro reaction of 4-thiazolealdehyde gives 4-(hydroxymethyl)-thiazole (53). The main reactions of hydroxyalkyl thiazoles are the synthesis of halogenated derivatives by the action of hydrobroraic acid (55, 61-63), thionyl chloride (44, 45, 63-66), phosphoryl chloride (52, 62, 67), phosphorus penta-chloride (58), tribromide (38, 68), esterification (58, 68-71), and elimination that leads to the alkenylthiazoles (49, 72). 

The multiplying affixes di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, hexa-, hepta-, octa-, nona-, deca-, undeca-, and so on are used to indicate a set of identical unsubstituted radicals or parent compounds. The forms bis-, tris-, tetrakis-, pentakis-, and so on are used to indicate a set of identical radicals or parent compounds each substituted in the same way. The affixes hi-, ter-, quater-, quinque-, sexi-, septi-, octi-, novi-, deci-, and so on are used to indicate the number of identical rings joined together by a single or double bond.
