Research synthetic

Exploitation of commercially available analogues of the selected hits is often an early step in the first round of SAR studies. This is usually followed by the use of basic medicinal chemistry to modify these analogues to sample a reasonable fraction of the overall chemical space. In parallel it is essential to spend time researching synthetic routes to generate the basic scaffold and selected syn-thons with the objective to incorporate more, extended, or diverse functional groups and thns expand the sampled chemical space considerably.

With my European background, I was when I came to America and still am impressed by the rather loosely organized, more decentralized way of research support. Of course, even in a great country like ours resources are not limitless and inevitably prevailing trends of research set priorities. In my field of interest the 1970s and 1980s were a period when, after two oil crises, research on hydrocarbon fuels and their synthetic preparation had significant public interest and support. Catalytic research in its many aspects was heavily pursued and considered a national priority. 

A second scheme uses a database of known chemical reactions. This more often results in synthesis routes that will work. However, this occurs at the expense of not being able to suggest any new chemistry. This method can also give many possible synthesis routes, not all of which will give acceptable yield or be easily carried out. The quality of results will depend on the database of known reactions and the means for determining which possible routes are best. These are often retro synthetic algorithms, which start with the desired product and let the researcher choose from a list of possible precursors. 

This program is marketed as an exploratory tool for undergraduate organic chemistry students. As an educational tool, it is well designed. The program, as is, might also serve as a reminder of possible options for synthetic chemists. It could also be useful to the research community if more reactions are included in future versions. 

A rational classification of reactions based on mechanistic considerations is essential for the better understanding of such a broad research field as that of the organic chemistry of Pd. Therefore, as was done in my previous book, the organic reactions of Pd are classified into stoichiometric and catalytic reactions. It is essential to form a Pd—C cr-bond for a synthetic reaction. The Pd— C (T-bond is formed in two ways depending on the substrates. ir-Bond formation from "unoxidized forms [1] of alkenes and arenes (simple alkenes and arenes) leads to stoichiometric reactions, and that from oxidized forms of alkenes and arenes (typically halides) leads to catalytic reactions. We first consider how these two reactions differ. 

As early as 2500 bce m India indigo was used to dye cloth a deep blue The early Phoenicians discovered that a purple dye of great value Tyrian purple could be extracted from a Mediterranean sea snail The beauty of the color and its scarcity made purple the color of royalty The availability of dyestuffs underwent an abrupt change m 1856 when William Henry Perkin an 18 year old student accidentally discovered a simple way to prepare a deep purple dye which he called mauveme from extracts of coal tar This led to a search for other synthetic dyes and forged a permanent link between industry and chemical research...

Nobel-laureate Richard Feynman once said that the principles of physics do not preclude the possibility of maneuvering things atom by atom (260). Recent developments in the fields of physics, chemistry, and biology (briefly described in the previous sections) bear those words out. The invention and development of scanning probe microscopy has enabled the isolation and manipulation of individual atoms and molecules. Research in protein and nucleic acid stmcture have given rise to powerful tools in the estabUshment of rational synthetic protocols for the production of new medicinal dmgs, sensing elements, catalysts, and electronic materials.

Coal is used ia industry both as a fuel and ia much lower volume as a source of chemicals. In this respect it is like petroleum and natural gas whose consumption also is heavily dominated by fuel use. Coal was once the principal feedstock for chemical production, but ia the 1950s it became more economical to obtain most industrial chemicals from petroleum and gas. Nevertheless, certain chemicals continue to be obtained from coal by traditional routes, and an interest in coal-based chemicals has been maintained in academic and industrial research laboratories. Much of the recent activity in coal conversion has been focused on production of synthetic fuels, but significant progress also has been made on use of coal as a chemical feedstock (see Coal CONVERSION processes). 

In a number of cases, identifications have been extremely difficult, because the materials were synthetic and knowledge of their existence had actually been lost. For example, several rather commonly encountered synthetic pigments, such as the lead-tin yellow often found in Renaissance and Baroque paintings, were originally misidentified or left unidentifiable until extensive research, including analyses of elemental composition and chemical and physical properties, and repHcation experiments, led to proper identification of the material and its manufacturing process. 

Modem synthetic polymers are the subject of increasing research by conservation scientists. Not only does their frequent use in conservation treatments require a better understanding of their long term stabiUty, but also many objects, including those in collections of contemporary art and in history and technology museums, are made out of these new materials.
