The parent indolo[2,3-fl]carbazole (1) has also been the subject of a study probing its reactivity toward oxidizing agents. One of the substrates involved, namely 85 (prepared from 1 and 2,5-dimethoxytetrahydrofuran in the presence of acid), was subjected to treatment with m-chloroperbenzoic acid, to give the dione 86 as the major product and a sensitive compound assigned the hydroxy structure 87. A cleaner reaction took place when 85 underwent oxidation with tert-butyl hydroperoxide assisted by VO(acac)2, to produce 86 exclusively in 86% yield. Likewise, A,N -dimethylindolo[2,3-fl]carbazole furnished the dione 88 on treatment with this combination of reagents (96J(X 413). 

Sulphated zirconia catalysts can be acidic or superacidic depending on the method of treatment. A variety of acid-catalysed reactions, referred to earlier in this section, can be carried out with sulphated zirconia. Yadav and Nair (1999) have given a state-of-the art review on this subject. Examples of benzylation of benzene with benzyl chloride / benzyl alcohol, alkylation of o-xylene with. styrene, alkylation of diphenyl oxide with 1-dodecene, isomerization of epoxides to aldehydes, acylation of benzene / chlorobenzene with p-chloro benzoylchloride, etc. are covered in the review. 

The synthesis in Scheme 13.21 starts with a lactone that is available in enantiomer-ically pure form. It was first subjected to an enolate alkylation that was stereocontrolled by the convex shape of the cis ring junction (Step A). A stereospecific Pd-mediated allylic substitution followed by LiAlH4 reduction generated the first key intermediate (Step B). This compound was oxidized with NaI04, converted to the methyl ester, and subjected to a base-catalyzed conjugation. After oxidation of the primary alcohol to an aldehyde, a Wittig-Horner olefination completed the side chain. 

After extraction, the loaded solvent contains 6 g T1 zirconium as zirconium oxide with 0.2% hafnium oxide. The raffinate is left with 0.2 to 0.3 g l l of the oxides of zirconium and hafnium of this, 70-90% is hafnium oxide. This raffinate can act as a feed solution for the recovery of pure hafnium oxide. The loaded extractant, on the other hand, is subjected to a scrubbing operation with pure zirconium sulfate solution to eliminate any co-extracted hafnium. This scrubbing operation is essentially a displacement reaction ... 

Aryl hydrazide-based linker 79 was developed as a traceless handle that released products under mild oxidative conditions (Scheme 42) [91]. Polymeric bound p-iodophenylhydrazide was subjected to a variety of Pd°-catalyzed coupling reactions (Heck, Suzuki, Sonogashira, and Stille). Oxidation with Cu(OAc)2 in MeOH and pyridine released the final products in 50-96% yield. 

The 2-keto acids such as 2-keto-D-galactonic acid (XXIV) can be derived from the corresponding osone (XXIII) by oxidation with bromine.10 Oxidation of L-gulosone by the same method has provided 2-keto-L-gulonic acid. The success of this oxidation depends to a large extent upon the purity of the osone subjected to oxidation and this, as previously stated, is controlled by the purity of the osazone. 

When the enol (XCVII) of 5-keto-4-desoxy-mannosaccharo-3,6-lactone is subjected to ozonolysis, cleavage occurs at the double bond with the formation of oxalic acid and p-erythuronic acid (XCVIII), the latter being identified by the fact that upon oxidation with bromine it yields mcao-tartaric acid (XCIX). The formation of oxalic acid and erythu-ronic acid locates the double bond in XCVII between C4 and C5 and demonstrates that C4 carries a hydrogen atom while C5 has attached to... 

Fig. 29. SIMS profiles of total deuterium density in two composite samples subjected to a one hour deuteration in the same plasma product environment at 300°C (Johnson, 1988). Both samples had a substrate containing 2 x 10IH Sb/cm3 this was covered with an epitaxial layer containing 3 x 1018 As/cm3 for the upper curve, and with one containing 5x 10 7 As/cm3 for the lower curve. There was in both cases a little interdiffusion. All sample surfaces were prepared for deuteration by removing the oxide with a dilute HF etch, rinsing with distilled water, and blowing dry with heated nitrogen.

Individual aspects of nitrile oxide cycloaddition reactions were the subjects of some reviews (161 — 164). These aspects are as follows preparation of 5-hetero-substituted 4-methylene-4,5-dihydroisoxazoles by nitrile oxide cycloadditions to properly chosen dipolarophiles and reactivity of these isoxazolines (161), 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of isothiazol-3(2//)-one 1,1-dioxides, 3-alkoxy- and 3-(dialkylamino)isothiazole 1,1-dioxides with nitrile oxides (162), preparation of 4,5-dihydroisoxazoles via cycloaddition reactions of nitrile oxides with alkenes and subsequent conversion to a, 3-unsaturated ketones (163), and [2 + 3] cycloaddition reactions of nitroalkenes with aromatic nitrile oxides (164). 

The main purpose of this chapter is to survi atmospheric concentrations of photochemical oxidants, with emphasis on surface concentrations and the distribution patterns associated with them. The reason for that em> phasis is that the photochemical oxidants that affect public health and welfare are largely concentrated in this region. The whole subject of stratospheric ozone (and its filtering of ultraviolet light and interactions with supersonic-transport exhaust products), nuclear weapon reaction products, and halogenated hydrocarbon decomposition pr ucts is not treated here. 

In order to model the oxygenation of vitamin K in its hydroquinone form, a naph-thohydroquinone derivative with a 1-hydroxy group and 4-ethyl ether was prepared and its alkoxide subjected to oxidation with molecular oxygen. Products consistent with two possible mechanisms were isolated, the epoxy-quinone which must derive from a peroxy anion intermediate at the 4-position, and a 2-hydroxy product which... 

Dioximes of a-diketones such as benzil on oxidation with IBTA are converted into 1,2,5-oxadiazole-A-oxides (furoxans) in high yields (75S445) (Eq. 35). Benzo- (Scheme 46) and pyrido-oxadiazoles (Eq. 36) are formed when o-nitroaniline and 3-amino-2-nitropyridine are subjected to similar oxidation. 

A rearrangement process analogous to that involved in conversion 323 to 324 (Scheme 83) occurs when several 2,2-dialkyl-substituted chroma-nones 334 are subjected to oxidation with HTIB. The reaction involving a... 

To determine the reasons for this, DHP s were prepared from a mixture of [ring-2-3H] p-coumaryl alcohol and [or-14C] coniferyl alcohol in the presence of carbohydrates by the procedure described above (35). The LCC fraction so obtained was subjected to combustion, and the exact p-hydroxyphenylpropane guaiacylpropane ratio was determined from the activity of 3H20 and 14C02 released (Figure 2). A portion of the same LCC fraction was also oxidized with nitrobenzene and alkali, and the resulting liberated aromatic aldehydes were then analyzed by HPLC. Results are shown in Table V. 

In a novel synthetic route involving the transformation of a tetrahydroproto-berberine nucleus to a pavine skeleton (Scheme 10) 119), canadine methiodide (67), was subjected to Hofmann degradation to yield styrene 68. This compound was successively oxidized with osmium tetraoxide-sodium periodate and the...
