This compound has a 1,5 rather than a 1,3 relationship between two carbonyl groups. Disconnection to give an enolate as one reagent therefore requires an a3 rather than an a1 synthon in other words a Michael acceptor, 

The synthesis will be successful only if (1) the right reagent enolizes and (2) the nucleophile undergoes conjugate (and not direct 1,2-) addition to the unsaturated carbonyl compound (Chapter 29). Malonate derivatives enolize easily and do Michael additions and are therefore a good choice for this type of reaction. 

Michael addition of enolates to a,[3-unsaturated compounds is a good way of making 1,5-difunction-alfeed compounds, and you should look for these 1,5-relationships in target molecules with a view to making them in this way, Our example is rogletimide, a sedative that can be disconnected to a 1,5-diester. Further 1,5-diCO disconnection gives a compound we made earlier by ethylation of the ester enolate.

The synthesis was most efficient with an unsaturated amide as Michael acceptor, 

Cast your mind back over the synthons we have used in these two-group C- C disconnections. 

Notice that the acceptor synthons have odd numbers the donor synthon has an even number donor and acceptor properties alternate along the chain as we move away from a carbonyl group. This natural reactivity of carbonyl compounds explains why we find it easy to discuss ways of making 1,3- and 1,5-difunctionalized compounds, because they arise from a + d and from a -t- d. Reagents corresponding to synthons like d or a are rarer, and therefore compounds with 1,2- or

The majority of marine isonitriles are sesquiterpenes with the molecular formula, C16H25N. Often cyclic, these are alkanes or alkenes possessing only a single isocyano-related functional group. In the mass spectrum, they exhibit a molecular ion at w/z 231, or an intense fragment ion at m/z 204, indicative of M+-HCN. Some are crystalline (see Table 2). With few exceptions most of the isothiocyano and formamido analogs are minor noncrystalline metabolites (see Table 3). 

Analytical aspects of amino, quaternary ammonium, nitro, nitroso and related functional groups... 

The present chapter deals with amino, nitro and nitroso groups, quaternary ammonium compounds, and with several minor related functional groups. Analytical aspects concerning these functional groups were reviewed in the past to various extents1-3. The present chapter will deal with certain general aspects and especially with advancements that took place in the last few years. 

The present book, The Chemistry of Hydroxylamines, Oximes and Hydroxamic Acids, deals with the chemistry of three related functional groups that were not hitherto treated in The Chemistry of Functional Groups series. Professor Artem Melman, then at the Hebrew University, who felt that such a book would be valuable, suggested the title and we followed his advice he also contributed a chapter. We will be grateful to other readers who suggest other topics which, in their opinion, deserve to be included in new volumes in the series.

Classification by Chemical Constitution Classification of solvents according to chemical constitntion allows certain qualitative predictions. In general, a compound dissolves far more easily in a solvent possessing related functional groups than in one of a completely different nature (see table 3.11). A proper choice of solvent, based on the knowledge of its chemical reactivity, helps to avoid undesired reactions between solute and solvent.

This chapter begins with an introduction to the basic principles that are required to apply radical reactions in synthesis, with references to more detailed treatments. After a discussion of the effect of substituents on the rates of radical addition reactions, a new method to notate radical reactions in retrosynthetic analysis will be introduced. A summary of synthetically useful radical addition reactions will then follow. Emphasis will be placed on how the selection of an available method, either chain or non-chain, may affect the outcome of an addition reaction. The addition reactions of carbon radicals to multiple bonds and aromatic rings will be the major focus of the presentation, with a shorter section on the addition reactions of heteroatom-centered radicals. Intramolecular addition reactions, that is radical cyclizations, will be covered in the following chapter with a similar organizational pattern. This second chapter will also cover the use of sequential radical reactions. Reactions of diradicals (and related reactive intermediates) will not be discussed in either chapter. Photochemical [2 + 2] cycloadditions are covered in Volume 5, Chapter 3.1 and diyl cycloadditions are covered in Volume 5, Chapter 3.1. Related functional group transformations of radicals (that do not involve ir-bond additions) are treated in Volume 8, Chapter 4.2. 

Hydrosilylation of various carbonyl compounds, enones and related functional groups catalyzed by Group VIII transition metal complexes, especially phosphine-rhodium complexes, have been extensively studied1,3, and the reactions continue to serve as useful methods in organic syntheses.

Drug molecules often have 1,2-related functional groups 2-amino alcohols form one important class. Phenyramidol, for example, is a muscle relaxant. A simple two-group disconnection takes it straight back to 2-amino pyridine and styrene oxide. 

Sulfanilamide and p-aminobenzoic acid are similar in size and shape and have related functional groups. Thus, when sulfanilamide is administered, bacteria attempt to use it in place of p-aminobenzoic acid to synthesize folic acid. Derailing folic acid synthesis means that the bacteria cannot grow and reproduce. Sulfanilamide only affects bacterial cells, though, because humans do not synthesize folic acid, and must obtain it from their diets. 

Fully substituted alkenes are hydrosilylated with aluminum chloride without double-bond migration. The products have tertiary alkyl groups and thus may be utilized as silyl protecting groups for alcohols and related functional groups. " For example, chlorodimethylthexylsilane (49) is readily prepared from 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene (equation 42).
