Dehydrogenation, Ammoxidation, and Other Heterogeneous Catalysts. Cerium has minor uses in other commercial catalysts (41) where the element s role is probably related to Ce(III)/Ce(IV) chemistry. Styrene is made from ethylbenzene by an alkah-promoted iron oxide-based catalyst. The addition of a few percent of cerium oxide improves this catalyst s activity for styrene formation presumably because of a beneficial interaction between the Fe(II)/Fe(III) and Ce(III)/Ce(IV) redox couples. The ammoxidation of propjiene to produce acrylonitrile is carried out over catalyticaHy active complex molybdates. Cerium, a component of several patented compositions (42), functions as an oxygen and electron transfer through its redox couple. 

For Ti02 and Z1O2, it is well known that sulfation induces a strong increase of acidity [17] and the participation of an add mechanism could then account for this promotion of activity. This mechamsm can be described as a bifunctional process oxidation of NO to NO on Cu sites, and nitration of a product of the oxidation of decane on the acid fiinction(8). The preparation of the catalyst must have a great influence on the activity. This has been shown by the comparison of three Cu/TiC catalysts prepared in different conditions one in which titania is first treated with sulfuric acid, then by Cu acetate (denominated Cu 04/Ti02, containing 0.S wt% Cu, 0.6 wt% S), one in which Cu is... 

The Appeal Board has a dual role, acting over the activities of the Code of Practice Panel and the PMCPA as both an appeal body and as a supervisory body. All complaints received by the Authority and all rulings by the Code of Practice Panel are reported to the Appeal Board, thus ensuring independent scrutiny from outside the pharmaceutical industry of both the authority s and the panel s activities by the independent members and independent chairman of the Appeal Board. Where promotional material or activities are ruled in breach of the Code, the company concerned must cease to use the material or cease the activity in question forthwith and provide a written undertaking to that effect. Reports on all cases under the Code of Practice are also published, naming companies ruled in breach of the code. These reports receive wide coverage, particularly in the pharmaceutical press and occasionally find their way into the lay press. 

Promotional activity and the dissemination of information are so closely linked that it is hard to see where one ends and the other begins. In the modern era, where many pairs of eyes are on the industry s activities, eager to criticise and to control, the only real option for companies is to conform to the rules and to play fair. I would suggest that since companies act by SOPs for their conduct of clinical trials, so it makes sense to have an SOP for the preparation and approval of ethical promotional material. If one does not create written procedures to cover the multiple steps in the preparation and approval of promotional copy, mistakes can be made and complaints may follow.

The effect of tin compounds, especially tetra-alkyl and tetra-aryl tin compounds, is similar to that of phosphine, though lower temperature and pressure are required for the catalyst s optimum activity. Tin can promote the activity of the nickel catalyst to a level that matches that of rhodium under mild conditions of system pressure and temperature e.g. 400 psig at 160 C. The tin-nickel complex is less stable than the phosphine containing catalyst. In the absence of carbon monoxide and at high temperature, as in carbonyl-ation effluent processing, the tin catalyst did not demonstrate the high stability of the phosphine complex. As in the case of phosphine, addition of tin in amounts larger than required to maintain catalyst stability has no effect on reaction activity.

Jencks and coworkers9 noted that a likely route for catalysis of carboxylation reactions (replacement of a proton by a carboxyl group) is the generation of low entropy carbon dioxide by a reaction of ATP and bicarbonate adjacent to Nl of biotin. This way of promoting carboxylation produces a situation which is precisely what is created at the stage of the initial formation of products in decarboxylation reactions. Since there is no directional momentum, the proximity of low entropy carbon dioxide and a nucleophile similarly will slow the reaction in the direction of decarboxylation. The same authors suggest that for decarboxylation reactions, nucleophilic addition to carbon dioxide in an enzyme s active site would prevent re-addition and promote the forward reaction if the addition product is itself sufficiently unstable.

FEN-l s endonuclease activity removes flap substrates by a unique mechanism. As illustrated in Figure 7.2, FEN-1 is first loaded onto the 5 end of flaps (Tom et al., 2000 Wu et al., 1996). It then slides down the flap strand and cleaves the flap at the point of annealing (Tom et al., 2000 Wu et al., 1996). Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a homotrimeric protein primarily found as a cofactor promoting the activity of DNA polymerase 6(Eissenberg et al., 1997), can promote FEN-l s endonuclease activity five- to 50-fold (Eisscnberg et al, 1997 Wu et al., 1996).
