Reaction methods used

The esters of sahcyhc acid account for an increasing fraction of the sahcyhc acid produced, about 15% in the 1990s. Typically, the esters are commercially produced by esterification of sahcyhc acid with the appropriate alcohol using a strong mineral acid such as sulfuric as a catalyst. To complete the esterification, the excess alcohol and water are distilled away and recovered. The cmde product is further purified, generally by distillation. For the manufacture of higher esters of sahcyhc acid, transestetification of methyl sahcylate with the appropriate alcohol is the usual route of choice. However, another reaction method uses sodium sahcylate and the corresponding alkyl hahde to form the desired ester.

In 1997, Masamune et al. disclosed another anti -selective aldol reaction method, using a readily available chiral ligand, norephedrine2 (Scheme 2.2c). The ester 3 was treated with 2 equivalents of dicyclohexylboron triflate (Cy2BOTf) and 2.4 equivalents of triethylamine at -78°C for 2 hours. When aldehyde was... 

The two-phase reaction method using an aqueous homogeneous catalyst enables products to separate by decantation or solvent extraction [3a]. 

In the reaction method use is also made of lead tetraacetate, which yields, during hydrolysis, two molecules of acetic acid per water molecule [78]. The reaction proceeds at 70—75°C in a tubular reactor (20—40 cm) containing lead tetraacetate. The method is applicable to the determination of water in hydrocarbons, alcohols, ethers and ketones.

The close-coupling approach works readily and simply if the reaction is purely melastic . The method can also be made to work very simply for a single product arrangement (as in collinear reactions), by using a twisted coordinate system, most conveniently reaction path coordinates [37, 38 and 39] as shown in figure B3.4.3.

Here we will illustrate the method using a single example. The aldol reaction between an enol boronate and an aldehyde can lead to four possible stereoisomers (Figure 11.32). Many of these reactions proceed with a high degree of diastereoselectivity (i.e. syn anti) and/or enantioselectivity (syn-l syn-Tl and anti-l anti-lT). Bernardi, Capelli, Gennari,...

As a means of determining relative reactivities, the competition method using nitronium tetrafluoroborate in sulpholan has been criticised as giving results which arise from incomplete mixing of the reagents before reaction is complete. The difficulty of using the competition method when the rate of reaction is similar to, or greater than,... 

Primary and secondary amines are susceptible to oxidation and replacement reactions involving the N—H bonds. Within the development of peptide synthesis numerous protective groups for N—H bonds have been found (M, Bodanszky, 1976 L.A. Carpino, 1973), and we shall discuss five of the more general methods used involving the reversible formation of...

In the synthesis of morphine, bis-cyclization of the octahydroisoqtiinolinc precursor 171 by the intramolecular Heck reaction proceeds using palladium trifluoroacetate and 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidine (PMP). The insertion of the diene system forms the rr-allylpalladium intermediate 172, which attacks the phenol intramolecularly to form the benzofuran ring (see Section 1.1.1.3). Based on this method, elegant total syntheses of (-)- and (+ )-dihydrocodei-none and (-)- and ( + )-morphine (173) have been achieved[141]. 

Alkoxythiazoles are prepared by heterocyclization (274, 462). The Williamson method using catalytic amounts of KI and cupric oxide is also possible (278. 288, 306). 5-Acetoxy-4-alkenylthiazoles are obtained by treatment of 242 with acetyl chloride and triethylamine or with acetic anhydride and pyridine (450). Similarly, the reaction of diphenylketene with 242 affords 5-acyloxy-4-alkenylthiazoles (243) (Scheme 120) (450). The readiness of these o-acetylations suggests that 4-alkylidene thiazoline-5-one might be in equilibrium with 4-alkenyl-5-hydroxythiazoles (450). 

Thiazolecarboxylic acid hydrazides are prepared by the same general methods used to prepare amides, that is, by treating acids, esters, amides, anhydrides, or acid halides with hydrazine or substitued hydrazines. For example, see Scheme 21 (92). The dihydrazides are obtained in the same way (88). With diethyl 2-chloro-4,5-thiazoledicarboxylate this reaction gives the mono hydr azide monoester of 2-hydrazine-4,5-...
