Sodium function

Sodium, potassium, and chloride are electrolytes found in cow s milk for which the Food and Nutrition Board has estimated safe and adequate daily dietary intakes for infants, children and adolescents, and adults (NAS 1980A). Sodium functions in the body to maintain blood volume and cellular osmotic pressure and to transmit nerve impulses (NAS 1980A). The estimated safe and adequate daily dietary intake of sodium is 1100-3300 mg (2.8-8.4 g sodium chloride) for healthy adults (NAS 1980A). The American Medical Association, Council on Scientific Affairs (1979), suggested 4800 mg sodium per day as a tentative definition of moderation in sodium intake.

The less hindered f/ans-olefins may be obtained by reduction with lithium or sodium metal in liquid ammonia or amine solvents (Birch reduction). This reagent, however, attacks most polar functional groups (except for carboxylic acids R.E.A. Dear, 1963 J. Fried, 1968), and their protection is necessary (see section 2.6). 

The benzyl group has been widely used for the protection of hydroxyl functions in carbohydrate and nucleotide chemistry (C.M. McCloskey, 1957 C.B. Reese, 1965 B.E. Griffin, 1966). A common benzylation procedure involves heating with neat benzyl chloride and strong bases. A milder procedure is the reaction in DMF solution at room temperatiue with the aid of silver oxide (E. Reinefeld, 1971). Benzyl ethers are not affected by hydroxides and are stable towards oxidants (e.g. periodate, lead tetraacetate), LiAIH, amd weak acids. They are, however, readily cleaved in neutral solution at room temperature by palladium-catalyzed bydrogenolysis (S. Tejima, 1963) or by sodium in liquid ammonia or alcohols (E.J. Rcist, 1964). 

The intramolecular reaction oF allcenes with various O and N functional groups offers useful synthetic methods for heterocycles[13,14,166]. The reaction of unsaturated carboxylic acids affords lactones by either exo- or endo-cyclization depending on the positions of the double bond. The reaction of sodium salts of the 3-alkenoic acid 143 and 4-alkenoic acid 144 with Li2PdCl4 affords mostly five-membcrcd lactones in 30-40% yields[167]. Both 5-hexe-noic acid (145) and 4-hexenoic acid (146) are converted to five- or six-mem-bered lactones depending on the solvents and bases[168]. Conjugated 2,4-pentadienoic acid (147) is cyclized with Li2PdCl4 to give 2-pyrone (148) in water[i69].

Sodium borohydride and lithium aluminum hydride react with carbonyl compounds in much the same way that Grignard reagents do except that they function as hydride donors rather than as carbanion sources Figure 15 2 outlines the general mechanism for the sodium borohydride reduction of an aldehyde or ketone (R2C=0) Two points are especially important about this process... 

The carbonyl group of carbohydrates can be reduced to an alcohol function Typi cal procedures include catalytic hydrogenation and sodium borohydnde reduction Lithium aluminum hydride is not suitable because it is not compatible with the solvents (water alcohols) that are required to dissolve carbohydrates The products of carbohydrate reduc tion are called alditols Because these alditols lack a carbonyl group they are of course incapable of forming cyclic hemiacetals and exist exclusively m noncyclic forms...

A quantitative analysis for NH3 in several household cleaning products is carried out by titrating with a standard solution of HGl. The titration s progress is followed thermometrically by monitoring the temperature of the titration mixture as a function of the volume of added titrant. Household cleaning products may contain other basic components, such as sodium citrate or sodium carbonate, that will also be titrated by HGl. By comparing titration curves for prepared samples of NH3 to titration curves for the samples, it is possible to determine that portion of the thermometric titration curve due to the neutralization of NH3.

However, because of the avoided crossing of the potential energy curves the wave functions of Vq and Fi are mixed, very strongly at r = 6.93 A and less strongly on either side. Consequently, when the wave packet reaches the high r limit of the vibrational level there is a chance that the wave function will take on sufficient of the character of Na + 1 that neutral sodium (or iodine) atoms may be detected.

Sodium Chloroacetate Sodium chloroacetate [3926-62-3] mol wt 116.5, C2H2C102Na, is produced by reaction of chloroacetic acid with sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate. In many appHcations chloroacetic acid or the sodium salt can be used interchangeably. As an industrial intermediate, sodium chloroacetate may be purchased or formed in situ from free acid. The sodium salt is quite stable in dry soHd form, but is hydrolyzed to glycoHc acid in aqueous solutions. The hydrolysis rate is a function of pH and temperature (29). 

Dialkylaminoethyl acryhc esters are readily prepared by transesterification of the corresponding dialkylaminoethanol (102,103). Catalysts include strong acids and tetraalkyl titanates for higher alkyl esters and titanates, sodium phenoxides, magnesium alkoxides, and dialkyitin oxides, as well as titanium and zirconium chelates, for the preparation of functional esters. Because of loss of catalyst activity during the reaction, incremental or continuous additions may be required to maintain an adequate reaction rate.

The iodination reaction can also be conducted with iodine monochloride in the presence of sodium acetate (240) or iodine in the presence of water or methanolic sodium acetate (241). Under these mild conditions functionalized alkenes can be transformed into the corresponding iodides. AppHcation of B-alkyl-9-BBN derivatives in the chlorination and dark bromination reactions allows better utilization of alkyl groups (235,242). An indirect stereoselective procedure for the conversion of alkynes into (H)-1-ha1o-1-alkenes is based on the mercuration reaction of boronic acids followed by in situ bromination or iodination of the intermediate mercuric salts (243).
