In more recent years, molded flexible foam products are becoming more popular. The bulk of the molded flexible urethane foam is employed in the transportation industry, where it is highly suitable for the manufacture of seat cushions, back cushions, and bucket-seat padding. TDI prepolymers were used in flexible foam mol ding ia conjunction with polyether polyols. The introduction of organotin catalysts and efficient siHcone surfactants faciHtates one-shot foam mol ding, which is the most economical production method. 

Another synthetic method for the introduction of the C2B10 cage onto the pyrimidine nucleus using palladium-catalyzed coupling of 5-iodonucleoside derivatives with alkynes was developed [30], A polyol unit increases water solubility, and this allows the synthesis of a water-soluble uracil bearing an o-C2Bio cage (Scheme 2.2-7) [31]. 

One of the more advertized advances in commercial offering of polyurethanes from renewable resources was the introduction of soy-based polyol in the 2008 Ford Mustang [180, 181]. Ford partnered with Lear Corp. to produce automotive seats containing up to 40% soy-based polyol. This was hailed as a throw-back to the early days of Ford Motor Company, when Henry Ford incorporated as much as 60 pounds of soybeans into paint components and molded body parts for the Model T. 

This reaction is environmental friendly since it produces no salt, provides a 100% atom efficiency, and can be performed in water to fulfill some green chemistry principles. In this review, we wish to focus on the telomerization of mono and polysaccharides. As an introduction, recent results achieved with several polyols will be summarized. 

Electroenzymatic reactions are not only important in the development of ampero-metric biosensors. They can also be very valuable for organic synthesis. The enantio- and diasteroselectivity of the redox enzymes can be used effectively for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure compounds, as, for example, in the enantioselective reduction of prochiral carbonyl compounds, or in the enantio-selective, distereoselective, or enantiomer differentiating oxidation of chiral, achiral, or mes< -polyols. The introduction of hydroxy groups into aliphatic and aromatic compounds can be just as interesting. In addition, the regioselectivity of the oxidation of a certain hydroxy function in a polyol by an enzymatic oxidation can be extremely valuable, thus avoiding a sometimes complicated protection-deprotection strategy. 

With regard to reactive flame-retardants, two routes can be followed to improve thermal stability and fire behavior of PU foams use of brominated or phosphorus-containing polyol or, for rigid foams, the introduction inside polymer backbone of more thermally stable structure than urethane, mainly isocyanurate, but also uretidione rings or carbodiimide.19... 

TNT 7.5, Al dust 0.5, coal 3 and chalk 0.5%. The introduction of up to 10% of hydrazine nitrate in an AN expl markedly increases sensitivity and deton rate. AN and hydrazine nitrate are prefetbably mixed together prior to the addition of other ingredients, or they may be fused, solidified and subdivided prior to such addition (Ref 80) k)An expl obtai ned by neutralization of an acidic nitrated polyol such as NG by the addition of amines or amides such as urea, especially i n the form of a melt with AN i n a eutectic mixt. The expl is stable i n storage, especially when the amine or amide is present in excess(Ref 87)... 

Many excipients used by the pharmaceutical industry in the last 15 years in sugar-free medical preparations probably come under the category of essentially new excipients. Pressure for their introduction has been encouraged by the definite relationship between the dietary consumption of sucrose and the incidence of dental caries. " "" These materials include intense sweeteners such as saccharin and cyclamate plus bulk sweeteners such as the polyols sorbitol, xylitol, and lactitol. These materials are all either approved for food use or have pharmacopoeia monographs in existence or in draft. Fiterature reviews show number of...

Occasionally, it is possible to glycosylate one secondary alcohol over another, and the most common examples include preferential glycosylation of equatorial hydroxyl groups over their axial counterparts.119 187,192 196 Among many applications, acceptor polyols are commonly used for the introduction of bulky... 

Glycosylation of acceptor polyols has also been used for the concomitant introduction of multiple copies of the same residue,81,85 86 89 and for generating combinatorial libraries of oligosaccharides.199-202 In a number of cases, the regioselectivity could be... 

Particular interest has been shown in the catalytic oxidation of polyols with dioxygen using supported platinum-group metals as the catalysts. The most studied metals have been palladium and platinum which are, however, often affected by deactivation problems [2]. The introduction of cocatalysts such as bismuth or lead represents an enhancement in the use of these catalysts having the double effect of Increasing catalytic activity and improving catalyst life [3]. 

The most important oligo-polyols for rigid polyurethanes are polyether polyols and aromatic polyester polyols [1-4, 6]. The aromatic polyether polyols, based on condensates of aromatic compounds with aldehydes, become very important polyols, especially after the introduction of new blowing agents (see Chapter 21). 

As a general rule, all the aminic polyols obtained by the propoxylation of the amines discussed have very high viscosities. By the introduction of EO units the aminic polyol viscosities decrease substantially [4],... 

By the introduction of internal EO units (25-30% internal EO) it was possible to obtain an o-TDA-based aminic polyol with an acceptable viscosity, of around 10,000-15,000 mPa-s, at 25 °C (reaction 14.8.) [4]. 

The same strong effect on the viscosity decrease was observed by the introduction of an internal poly [EO] block in the case of synthesis of aromatic aminic polyols derived from methylenedianiline (MDA), a precursor of diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) [2, 5, 6] ... 

This method of viscosity decrease by introduction of internal EO units is very efficient for reusing wastes resulting from MDA fabrication, which have superior oligomers with 3, 4 or 5 aromatic nuclei (reaction 14.9). Propoxylation of these MDA wastes gives extremely viscous aminic polyols [2].
