Pyridines aromaticity

Asphalts characteristically contain very high molecular weight molecular polar species, called asphaltenes, which are soluble in carbon disulfide, pyridine, aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and tetrahydrofiiran. 

Residua are the dark-colored nearly solid or solid products of petroleum refining that are produced by atmospheric and vacuum distillation (Figure 11.1 Chapter 3). Asphalt is usually produced from a residuum and is a dark brown to black cementitious material obtained from petroleum processing that contains very high-molecular-weight molecular polar species called asphaltenes that are soluble in carbon disulfide, pyridine, aromatic hydrocarbons, and chlorinated hydrocarbons (Chapter 3) (Gruse and Stevens, 1960 Guthrie, 1967 Broome and Wadelin, 1973 Weissermel and Arpe, 1978 Hoffman, 1983 Austin, 1984 Chenier, 1992 Hoffman and McKetta, 1993). 

Cesium tetrafluorocobaltate(III) and quinoline react at 335-350°C to give98 over 60% of a mixture of 11 identified compounds two products 13 and 14 dominate the rest (each was about one-third of the product mixture). The rearranged structure of 14 is quite remarkable at first sight, but its formation resembles that of the polyfluoropyrrolidines from pyridines. Aromatic compounds are not so prominent as products as with other fluorinations over cesium tetrafluorocobaltate(III), but six are formed all have structures analogous to 15, with up to three fluorines on the pyridine ring.

Certain diethers of the type ROCHaCH OR have been prepared by adding alkyl halides to a solution of sodium in excess ethylene glycol monoalkyl ether, as in the preparation of ethylene glycol dimethyl ether (78%). Chloromethyl methyl ether and alcohols react to give an acetal derivative of formaldehyde, CHjOCHjOR the reaction is carried out in the presence of pyridine. Aromatic diethers such as 2-methoxydiphenyl ether have been prepared by the Ullmann procedure. ... 

Pyridine is cyclic, planar, and completely conjugated, because the three single and double bonds alternate around the ring. Pyridine has six n electrons, two from each it bond, thus satisfying Hiickel s rule and making pyridine aromatic. The nitrogen atom of pyridine also has a nonbonded electron pair, which is localized on the N atom, so it is not part of the delocalized ji electron system of the aromatic ring. 

Complexes involving phenols can clearly be of many kinds. Mnch of the effort in this review will be concentrated on complexes with bases leading possibly to proton transfer. Intramolecular proton transfer has been treated too for a number of types of compounds (see Section II.J). Bases in the complexes are typically pyridines, aromatic and aliphatic amines, amine iV-oxides and phosphine oxides. This is one of the rather difficult areas to review due to the fact that it is not always clear whether a single or a double potential well type is at play. Complexes have also been studied in a few cases in the solid state (see Section II.N).

The synthesis of l-pyridylimidazol[l,5-a]pyridines from the condensation reaction of 1,2-dipyridylketone, 2-benzoyl and 2-acetyl pyridines, aromatic aldehydes, and ammonium acetate is shown in Scheme 3b. A small selection of imidazolium PILs and AILs were trialed as solvents and catalysts, and for a specific reaction under the same conditions, the PILs led to yields of 69—93%, compared to those...

These methods are highly sensitive and specific for cyanide determination. These methods are based on the formation of polymethine dyes, for the example benzidine-pyridine method is used. Also, the barbituric acid method can be recommended. One general procedure of determining CN with bromine-pyridine-aromatic amine is described below.
