Retention of the

The last example illustrates nitration by means of fuming nitric acid with retention of the side chain. 

The C—C double bond in the cyclopentene ring can be cleaved by the osmium tetroxide-periodate procedure or by photooxygenation. The methoxalyl group on C-17 can, as a typical a-dicarbonyl system, be split off with strong base and is replaced by a proton. Since this elimination occurs with retention of the most stable configuration of the cyclization equi-hbrium, the substituents at C-17 and C-18 are located trans to one another. The critical introduction of both hydrogens was thus achieved regio- and stereoselectively. 

Formation of a Tr-allylpalladium complex 29 takes place by the oxidative addition of allylic compounds, typically allylic esters, to Pd(0). The rr-allylpal-ladium complex is a resonance form of ir-allylpalladium and a coordinated tt-bond. TT-Allylpalladium complex formation involves inversion of stereochemistry, and the attack of the soft carbon nucleophile on the 7r-allylpalladium complex is also inversion, resulting in overall retention of the stereochemistry. On the other hand, the attack of hard carbon nucleophiles is retention, and hence Overall inversion takes place by the reaction of the hard carbon nucleophiles. 

It is possible to prepare 1-acetoxy-4-chloro-2-alkenes from conjugated dienes with high selectivity. In the presence of stoichiometric amounts of LiOAc and LiCl, l-acetoxy-4-chloro-2-hutene (358) is obtained from butadiene[307], and cw-l-acetoxy-4-chloro-2-cyclohexene (360) is obtained from 1.3-cyclohexa-diene with 99% selectivity[308]. Neither the 1.4-dichloride nor 1.4-diacetate is formed. Good stereocontrol is also observed with acyclic diene.s[309]. The chloride and acetoxy groups have different reactivities. The Pd-catalyzed selective displacement of the chloride in 358 with diethylamine gives 359 without attacking allylic acetate, and the chloride in 360 is displaced with malonate with retention of the stereochemistry to give 361, while the uncatalyzed reaction affords the inversion product 362. 

The reaction of vinyloxiranes with malonate proceeds regio- and stereose-lectively. The reaction has been utilized for the introduction of a 15-hydroxy group in a steroid related to oogoniol (265)(156]. The oxirane 264 is the J-form and the attack of Pd(0) takes place from the o-side by inversion. Then the nucleophile comes from the /i-side. Thus overall reaction is sT -StM2 type, in the intramolecular reaction, the stereochemical information is transmitted to the newly formed stereogenic center. Thus the formation of the six-membered ring lactone 267 from 266 proceeded with overall retention of the stereochemistry, and was employed to control the stereochemistry of C-15 in the prostaglandin 268[157]. The method has also been employed to create the butenolide... 

It was claimed that the Z-form of the allylic acetate 430 was retained in homoallylic ketone 431 obtained by reaction with the potassium enolate of 3-vinylcyclopentanone (429), after treatment with triethylborane[282]. Usually this is not possible. The reaction of a (Z)-allylic chloride with an alkenylaluminum reagent to give 1,4-dienes proceeds with retention of the stereochemistry to a considerable extent when it is carried out at -70 C[283]. 

Eor evaluation of flocculants for pressure belt filters, both laboratory-scale filters and filter simulators are available (52,53) in many cases from the manufacturers of the full-scale equipment. The former can be mn either batchwise or continuously the simulators require less substrate and are mn batchwise. The observed parameters include cake moisture, free drainage, release of the cake from the filter cloth, filter blinding, and retention of the flocculated material during appHcation of pressure. 

The use of hot gas clean-up methods to remove the sulfur and particulates from the gasified fuel increases turbine performance by a few percentage points over the cold clean-up systems. Hot gas clean-up permits use of the sensible heat and enables retention of the carbon dioxide and water vapor in the... 

Filtration. Here the prime function is to retain sod or other fine materials, whde allowing water to pass through. Again, it is seen that more than one function is being performed (Fig. 6). If there were no drainage of water taking place, movement, and therefore retention of the sod, would not be of concern. 

Aldehydes are important products at all pressures, but at low pressures, acids are not. Carbon monoxide is an important low pressure product and declines with increasing pressure as acids increase. This is evidence for competition between reaction sequence 18—20 and reaction 21. Increasing pressure favors retention of the parent carbon skeleton, in concordance with the reversibiUty of reaction 2. Propylene becomes an insignificant product as the pressure is increased and the temperature is lowered. Both acetone and isopropyl alcohol initially increase as pressure is raised, but acetone passes through a maximum. This increase in the alcohoLcarbonyl ratio is similar to the response of the methanoLformaldehyde ratio when pressure is increased in methane oxidation. 

A2iridines (X = H) can be alkylated on the nitrogen, with retention of the three-membered ring, by reaction with aUphatic and aromatic haUdes in the presence of base (2,154). The reaction can also be carried out, in some cases with very good yields, under phase-transfer conditions using 30% NaOH and optionally an organic solvent (155). If the haUdes do not react readily, the alkaU metal salts (X = Na) of the corresponding ayiridine can be used (156—158) to form, for example, triethyleneiminemethane [23974-29-0]..

It is truly possible to imagine the characteristics of an ideal radiopharmaceutical only in the context of a specific disease and organ system to which it might be appHed. Apart from the physical factors related to the radioisotope used, the only general characteristic that is important in defining the efficacy of these materials is the macroscopic distribution in the body, or biodistribution. This time-dependent distribution at the organ level is a function of many parameters which may be divided into four categories factors related to deUvery of the radiopharmaceutical to a particular tissue factors related to the extraction of the compound from circulation factors related to retention of the compound by that tissue and factors deterrnined by clearance. The factors in the last set are rarely independent of the others. 

Numerous uses for PZT/PLZT thin films are under investigation. The device that, as of this writing, is closest to commercialization is a nonvolatile memory. This device, which utilizes a ferroelectric thin-film capacitor integrated onto siUcon circuitry, provides memory retention when the power is off because of the polarization retention of the ferroelectric capacitor. One and zero memory states arise from the two polarization states, — and +F, of the ferroelectric. Because PZT is radiation-hard, the devices are also of interest for military and space appHcations. 

Cellulose liner material absorbs water and needs to be wet for at least 30 s prior to investing to prevent Uquid from being extracted from the investment. The ceUulose liner bums when heated in air and is eliminated completely from the mold at burnout temperatures of 700°C (123). To ensure retention of the mold within the casting ring, a ceUulose liner should be kept short of each end. For gypsum investments a liner that is 12 mm shorter than the height of the ring should be used.

The basic operations in dust collection by any device are (1) separation of the gas-borne particles from the gas stream by deposition on a collecting surface (2) retention of the deposit on the surface and (3) removal of the deposit from the surface for recovery or disposal. The separation step requires (1) application of a force that produces a differential motion of a particle relative to the gas and (2) a gas retention time sufficient for the particle to migrate to the coUecting surface. The principal mechanisms of aerosol deposition that are apphed in dust collectors are (1) gravitational deposition, (2) flow-line interception, (3) inertial deposition, (4) diffusional deposition, and (5) electrostatic deposition. Thermal deposition is only a minor factor in practical dust-collectiou equipment because the thermophoretic force is small. Table 17-2 lists these six mechanisms and presents the characteristic...
