Extensive studies were earried out in reeent years to find ways for the seleetive oxidative eonversion of methane to higher hydroearbons. Because combining two methane molecules to form ethane and hydrogen is itself exothermic by some 16 keal/mol, oxidative removal of H2 is needed to make the reaction feasible. 

Since 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of diazomethane are HOMO (diazomethane)-LUMO (dipolarophile) controlled, enamines and ynamines with their high LUMO energies do not react (79JA3647). However, introduction of carbonyl functions into diazomethane makes the reaction feasible in these cases. Thus methyl diazoacetate and 1-diethylaminopropyne furnished the aminopyrazole (620) in high yield. 

OS 57] [R 6] [P 40] One of the first examples of parallel multi-reaction was performed in a Caliper chip [18], By 2 x 2 combinations of two aldehydes and two 1,3-diketones, four cycloadducts were generated simultaneously in one run on one chip (Figure 4.71). The conversions were comparable to those for the single runs, with one exception. Also, cross-contamination was observed. It ranged from a few percents to about 50%. It should be pointed out that despite these initial drawbacks the demonstration of multi-reaction feasibility is a further valuable step in micro channel processing. 

Having introduced matters pertaining to the electrochemical series earlier, it is only relevant that an appraisal is given on some of its applications. The coverage hereunder describes different examples which include aspects of spontaneity of a galvanic cell reaction, feasibility of different species for reaction, criterion of choice of electrodes to form galvanic cells, sacrificial protection, cementation, concentration and tempera lure effects on emf of electrochemical cells, clues on chemical reaction, caution notes on the use of electrochemical series, and finally determination of equilibrium constants and solubility products.

Thus, a highly reactive species is needed to make this type of bond activation reaction feasible under mild conditions. In addition, to be useful, the C-H bond activation must occur with both high chemo- and regiose-lectivity. Over the past several decades, it has been shown that transition metal complexes are able to carry out alkane activation reactions (1-5). Many of these metal-mediated reactions operate under mild to moderate conditions and exhibit the desirable chemoselectivity and regioselectiv-ity. Thus, using transition metal complexes, alkane activation can be preferred over product activation, and the terminal positions of alkanes, which actually contain the stronger C-H bonds, can be selectively activated. The fact that a hydrocarbon C-H bond has been broken in a... 

It is evident from the calculated values that solvent effect decreases the electrophilicity. However, the presence of same environment reduces the hardness value considerably, thereby making the reaction feasible. 

A majority of radical addition occurs with electron-poor alkenes using alkyl halides in the presence of BusSnH. These reactions are feasible due to a proper matching between the radical acceptor and the donor. However, when the alkene is electron-rich and since simple alkyl radicals are considered as nucleophilic, the reaction is not a practical method for carbon-carbon bond formation. By applying the concept of polarity-reversal catalysis, an additional reagent is introduced which alleviates the mismatch between the partners and makes the reaction feasible. A few examples illustrating this concept have been described in this review. 

Another entry into useM five-carbon building blocks from d-xylose encompasses the expeditious four-step protocol for the l-phenylpyrazol-3-carboxaldehyde with a 5-hydroxymethyl substituent (Scheme 2.15) and the various follow-up reactions feasible. 

Thus cooling-warming cycles, suitably induced, allowed temporal resolution of the reaction, step by step. The absorption, optical rotary dispersion, and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of pure compounds I and II were then recorded and found to be similar to those obtained under fast-reaction conditions (Douzou et al., 1970 Douzou and Leter-rier, 1970). Additional interesting observations were made possible by the low-temperature technique for instance, instead of making the time scale of reactions feasible exp>erimentally by increasing the substrate concentrations as in fast techniques, reactions at low temperatures could be performed with stoichiometric concentrations of enzyme. Such con-...

There has been much discussion of the possibility of converting C02 emissions to useful organic compounds, but most proposals involve endothermic reactions that would require input of heat, probably generated at the expense of yet more C02 emissions. The proposed formation of liquid acetic acid AH = —485.76 kJ mol-1, S° = 178.7 J K-1 mol-1) from C02 and methane has been claimed to be exothermic. Is this reaction feasible in the industrial context, assuming an appropriate catalyst can be found (Use the data of Appendix C.)...
