Synthetic resin, reduction

Three methods for trace metal preconcentration were examined liquid-liquid extraction aided by a chelating agent, concentration on a synthetic chelating resin and reductive precipitation with NaBTLt. The latter method gave 1000-fold preconcentration factors with total recovery of Pb and other elements17. Preconcentration of nanogram amounts of lead can be carried out with a resin incorporating quinolin-8-ol (3)18. Enhancement factors of 50-100 can be achieved by such preconcentration procedures followed by determination in a FLA (flow injection analysis) system limits of detection are a few pg Pb/L19. 

Reduction in the consumption of synthetic resin. Synthetic resin is a petrochemical product, so reducing the consumption of petroleum products aligns with the requirement for sustainable development strategies in today s society with an increasing focus on energy aspects." ... 

Very few enzyme-catalysed reactions involving the reduction of alkenes have achieved any degree of recognition in synthetic organic chemistry. Indeed the only transformation of note involves the reduction of a, (3-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones. For example, bakers yeast reduction of (Z)-2-bromo-3-phenylprop-2-enal yields (S)-2-bromo-3-phenylpropanol in practically quantitative yield (99 % ee) when a resin is employed to control substrate concen-tration[50]. Similarly (Z)-3-bromo-4-phenylbut-3-en-2-one yields 2(5), 3(,S)-3-bromo-4-phenylbutan-2-ol (80% yield, >95% ee)[51]. Carbon-carbon double bond reductases can be isolated one such enzyme from bakers yeast catalyses the reduction of enones of the type Ar—CH = C(CH3)—COCH3 to the corresponding (S)-ketones in almost quantitative yields and very high enantiomeric excesses[52]. 

A very similar approach to the same solid-phase supported dendrimers was reported by Portnoy and coworkers by means of iterative Mitsunobu/reduction steps starting with a Wang resin [56]. They used [Gl] (loading 0.62 mmol g ) to [G3] (loading 0.32 mmol g ) dendrimers for synthetic applications. The synthesis of a tripeptide was carried out without previous linker introduction to yield a dendri-... 

In addition to oxidation and reduction reactions, naphthalene readily undergoes substitution reactions such as nitration, halogenation, sulfonation, and acylation to produce a variety of other substances, which are used in the manufacture of dyes, insecticides, organic solvents, and synthetic resins. The principal use of naphthalene is for the production of phthalic anhydride, CgbLO,. 

The resin-bound perfluoroalkylsulfonyl linker is compatible with many common solid-phase reactions, such as tin dichloride-mediated aromatic nitro group reduction, trifluoroacetic acid-mediated tBoc deprotection, reductive amination reactions, acylation, and sulfonation. It is possible to perform several sequential synthetic reactions on the nonflate resin so that multistep syntheses can be carried out. The solid-phase approach provides an operationally simple, inexpensive, and general protocol for the cleavage... 

Reductants are a common tool in synthetic chemistry. Unfortunately, reducing agents are not always compatible with resins used in solid-phase synthesis. What would be the problem with using NaBH4 or LiAlH4 with a molecule attached to a Wang resin ... 

On the synthetic route to a novel class of orally active 2,3-benzodiazepines, scientists at Lilly have described a yeast reduction using Zygosaccharomyces rouxii (ATCC 14462) (Scheme 19.5).76-78 This intermediate is used in the synthesis of a novel class of benzodiazepines such as LY-300164 (1). The choice of this yeast strain came from a screen of numerous microbes. The product was isolated in >95% yield and >99.9% ee by use of an adsorbant polymeric resin.76-78... 

The design of the library L3 and the synthetic scheme are reported in Fig. 6.15 filtration of the solutions and washing of the resin aliquots were performed after each step. The three supported benzopyranones 6.32 (step a, from the monomer set Mi, three ketones) were obtained in a similar manner to 6.29 on a 300-g scale. Each resin-supported benzopyranone was split into 8 separate peptide synthesis flasks containing 35 g of resin and all of the 24 samples were reductively aminated (steps b and c, monomer set M2, eight amines) to produce 24 resin-bound intermediates 6.33. Each intermediate was then divided into 352 portions of 100 mg of resin that were distributed into four filter-bottom 96-well microtiter plates (2.0 mL capacity per well).
