Finally the aminoquinoline bearing a primary amine at the terminal carbon atom of the side chain is itself an effective antimalarial drug. Ring opening of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran by bromine gives the dibromide, 99. The primary halide is sufficiently less hindered so that reaction with potassium phthalimide affords exclusively the product of displacement of that halogen (100). Alkylation of the aminoquinoline with lOO affords the secondary amine, 101. Removal of the phthalimide group by means of hydrazine yields primaquine (102). ... 

A sensitive spectrophotometric method was reported for the determination of niclosamide and some other antiamebic and anthelmintic drugs either in pure form or in formulations. The method was based on reduction with Zn and HC1 followed by reaction with metol and potassium dichromate at pH 3.0 to give a colored product having maximum absorbance at 530 nm for niclosamide [54]. 

Preparation of the prototype drug departs from the phenylenediamine strategy used in all of the previous examples. Condensation of thiazolo nitrile (53-2) with aniline catalyzed by aluminum chloride affords the amidine addition product (53-3). This is then converted to its reactive A -chloro derivative (53-4) by reaction with sodium hypochlorite. Treatment of that intermediate with a base such as potassium hydroxide leads directly to the cyclization product and thus the benzimidazole thiabendazole (53-6) [56]. The reaction can be rationalized by invoking as the first step the abstraction of chloride to leave behind a nitrene species such as (53-5) this would then readily insert in the CH bond at the ortho position. 

The optional site selective metallation of fluorotoluenes158 with the superbasic mixture of butyllithium and potassium fert-butoxide has been applied to the synthesis of the anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug Flurbiprofen.171 3-Fluorotoluene is selectively metallated in the 4-position with LIC-KOR in THF at — 75 °C to afford, after reaction with fluorodimethoxyborane and hydrolysis, the corresponding boronic acid in 78% yield. A palladium-catalyzed coupling with bromobenzene gives the 2-fluoro-4-methylbiphenyl in 84% yield. This four-step sequence can also be contracted to a one-pot procedure with an overall yield of 79%. A double metallation with the superbasic mixture lithium diisopropylamide/potassium tert-butoxide (LIDA-KOR)172 173 is then required to produce flurbiprofen. 

Sympathomimetic drugs can be determined by various procedures. Optimal reaction conditions have been developed for a FIA system with FLD, based on the reaction with 4-aminoantipyrine (78) in the presence of potassium hexacyauoferrate (equatiou 2). Pure samples or pharmaceutical formulations of etilefrine (155), orciprenaline (169), fenoterol (170), hexoprenaline (171) and reproterol (172) were determined, after dilution to the 2 to 50 ppm range. Results agreed with the official or the referee methods .

Hofmann appointed the seventeen-year-old Perkin as his personal assistant and guided him to work on the synthesis of the antimalarial drug quinine. Perkin had his own ideas for the synthesis of quinine and pursued them in his lab at his parents home. During Easter break 1856 Perkin ran a reaction with aniline (a compound derived from coal tar) and potassium dichromate that produced a black sludge. Dissolving the sludge in ethyl alcohol, Perkin found that the solution took on an intense purple color. Instead of synthesizing quinine, Perkin had made the first synthetic dye derived from coal tar mauve. 

Additional adverse reactions of these drugs are listed in tiie Summary Drug Table Diuretics. When a potassium-sparing diuretic and a thiazide diuretic are given together, tiie adverse reactions associated with both drugp may be seen. 

Colorimetric procedures used In steroid assays are often subject to drug Interference. In the determination of 17-Ketosterolds by the Zimmerman reaction, drugs with the 17-Keto basic structure such as ascorbic acid, morphine and reserplne will cause Increased values. In the determination of 17,21 -dlhydroxysterolds by the Porter-Sllber reaction the dlhydroxy-acetone chain Is the reactive unit. Drugs like meprobamate, chloral hydrate, chloropromazlne and potassium Iodide will Interfere with this reaction and cause elevated values. In the colorimetric determination of vanlllylmandellc acid (VMA) by a dlazo reaction, drugs like methocarbamol and methyl dopa cause... 

Davidow (19), of the Food and Drug Administration, has described a colorimetric method applicable to technical chlordan. The method is based on the observation that when technical chlordan is heated with a mixture of diethanolamine and methanolic potassium hydroxide, a purple color is produced. When known amounts of this insecticide were added to cabbage, pears, and fresh and rancid rat fat, recoveries of 74 to 104% of the insecticide were obtained. However, because two crystalline isomers of chlordan isolated from the technical product do not give a colored reaction product with the reagent, further investigation of the method is being made. The red color obtained when technical chlordan is heated with pyridine, alcoholic alkali, and ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, as described by Ard (2), likewise fails with the crystalline isomers of this insecticide.
