The anodized surface is often subjected to additional treatment before the radiation-sensitive coating is appHed. The use of aqueous sodium siUcate is well known and is claimed to improve the adhesion of diazo-based compositions ia particular (62), to reduce aluminum metal-catalyzed degradation of the coating, and to assist ia release after exposure and on development. Poly(viQyl phosphonic acid) (63) and copolymers (64) are also used. SiUcate is normally employed for negative-workiag coatings but rarely for positive ones. The latter are reported (65) to benefit from the use of potassium flu o r o zirc onate. 

The synthetic P-o-glucopyranoside 30 was converted to the cyanoglucoside rho-diocyanoside A (38a), which was isolated from the underground part of Rhodiola quadrifida (Pall.) Fisch. et Mey. (Crassulaceae) and found to show antiallergic activity in a passive cutaneous anaphylaxis test in rat. Acetylation of 30 gave an acetate (98% yield) which was subjected to ozonolysis to afford the aldehyde 39. The Horner-Emmons reaction of 39 using diethyl (l-cyanoethyl)phosphonate furnished (Z)-40a (32% yield from 30) and ( )-40b (10% yield from 30). The physical... 

Aldol addition and related reactions of enolates and enolate equivalents are the subject of the first part of Chapter 2. These reactions provide powerful methods for controlling the stereochemistry in reactions that form hydroxyl- and methyl-substituted structures, such as those found in many antibiotics. We will see how the choice of the nucleophile, the other reagents (such as Lewis acids), and adjustment of reaction conditions can be used to control stereochemistry. We discuss the role of open, cyclic, and chelated transition structures in determining stereochemistry, and will also see how chiral auxiliaries and chiral catalysts can control the enantiose-lectivity of these reactions. Intramolecular aldol reactions, including the Robinson annulation are discussed. Other reactions included in Chapter 2 include Mannich, carbon acylation, and olefination reactions. The reactivity of other carbon nucleophiles including phosphonium ylides, phosphonate carbanions, sulfone anions, sulfonium ylides, and sulfoxonium ylides are also considered. 

Attempts to initiate formation of a nitrene, and its rearrangement to the iminooxo-phosphorane 80, by subjecting l-chloroamino-2,2,3,4,4-pentamethylphosphetane 1-oxide to a-elimination with sodium methoxide proved unsuccessful48). In contrast, however, the phosphorylhydroxylamides 88 rearrange in the presence of tert-butyl-amine to the heterocumulene 89 and then add base to give the phosphonic diamides 90 (>90%)49). The reaction is reminiscent of the well-known Lossen degradation. 

Cambella and Antia [385] determined phosphonates in seawater by fractionation of the total phosphorus. The seawater sample was divided into two aliquots. The first was analysed for total phosphorus by the nitrate oxidation method capable of breaking down phosphonates, phosphate esters, nucleotides, and polyphosphates. The second aliquot was added to a suspension of bacterial (Escherichia coli) alkaline phosphatase enzyme, incubated for 2h at 37 °C and subjected to hot acid hydrolysis for 1 h. The resultant hot acid-enzyme sample was assayed for molybdate reactive phosphate which was estimated as the sum of enzyme hydrolysable phosphate and acid hydrolysable... 

An efficient dynamic kinetic resolution is observed when an a-bromo- or a-acetylamino-/3-keto phosphate is subjected to the hydrogenation with an Ru-BINAP catalyst under suitable conditions. With RuC12[(A)-BINAP](DMF) (0.18 mM) as the catalyst, a racemic a-bromo-/3-keto phosphonate is hydrogenated at 25 °G under... 

The chemistry of cassiterite flotation has been a subject of considerable research for many years. The findings that sulphosuccinamates, phosphonic acid and arsonic acid were selective collectors for cassiterite flotation lead to the introduction of flotation as a complementary recovery process to gravity concentration at most primary tin mill concentrators in the early 1970s. In spite of continued research, subsequent progress in development has been rather limited. Cassiterite flotation still remains a secondary tin recovery process in most plants, for beneficiation of cassiterite below 40 pm size. 

Several observations regarding this aspect have been published, and are briefly mentioned here. 5,6-Dideoxy-6-C-phosphono-D-arabino-hexofuranose (135), an isosteric phosphonate analog of D-arabinose 5-phosphate, is apparently converted, in the presence of enolpyruvate phosphate, into 3,8,9-trideoxy-9-C-phosphono-D-mcmno-2-nonulosonic acid (136) under catalysis by KDO 8-phosphate synthetase from Escherichia coli K 235. Compound 136, an isosteric phosphonate analog of KDO 8-phosphate, is a product inhibitor of the synthetase, and, by the nature of the phosphonate group, is not subject to dephosphorylation as catalyzed by KDO 8-phosphate phosphatase156 (see Scheme 40). Compound 119 (see Scheme 33) is a weak inhibitor of KDO 8-phosphate synthetase.81 KDO inhibits KDO 8-phosphate phosphatase,139 and D-ribose 5-phosphate has an inhibitory... 

Testing for phosphonates in the field remains a thankless task, even after 20 years or more of the availability of various methods. All available field methods are notoriously subject to interference from contaminants in the water or are inherently inaccurate. [This is not the case with American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) test methods and other laboratory-based test methods.] New technologies will no doubt arise, but methods such as the various tracing and polymer tagging systems may eventually prove to be superior. 

The Michaelis-Arbuzov reaction is the most used and well-known method for the synthesis of phosphonates and their derivatives and may also be used to synthesize phosphinates and tertiary phosphine oxides. The simplest form of the Michaelis-Arbuzov reaction is the reaction of a trialkyl phosphite, 3, with an alkyl halide, 4, to yield a dialkyl alkylphosphonate, 6, and new alkyl halide, 7 (Scheme 2). During this transformation the phosphorus atom of a ter-valent phosphorus(III) species (3) acts as a nucleophile resulting in the formation of an intermediate alkoxy phosphonium salt 5, containing a new [P—C] bond. The precise structure of the intermediates 5 is a subject of debate—as reflected by common reference to them as pseudophosphonium salts —with a penta-coordinate species (containing a [P—X] bond) being proposed and detected in some cases.18 Decomposition (usually rapid under the reaction conditions) of the intermediate 5 by nucleophilic attack of X- on one of the alkyl groups R1, with concomitant formation of a [1 =0] bond yields the product pentavalent phosphorus(V) compound (6) and the new alkyl halide, 7. 

Although compounds of composition P(OR)3 are well known and are useful as ligands (Section 10-17) and in other ways, they are subject to the Arbuzov reaction with alkyl halides, which converts them to diesters of phosphonic acids ... 

The cleavage of carbon phosphorus bonds in phosphoryl compounds is another matter for consideration. Once a carbon-phosphorus bond is generated, usually it is extremely difficult to cleave it without major damage to the remainder of the molecule. However, phosphonate and phosphinate esters, as well as phosphine oxides, in which a hydroxyl or carbonyl group is present at the carbon directly attached to phosphorus are subject to facile cleavage of the carbon-phosphorus bond. 

Treatment of the phosphonate 146 with LDA in the presence of the aldehyde 145 gave compound 147 in 48% yield (Scheme 9) <1996CC363>. Subjecting 147 to a phosphite-mediated coupling with the thione 148 gave compound 63 <1996CC363>. 

The synthesis and reactions of phosphonates containing alkynyl groups has been the subject of a review. 

A by now classic retrosynthesis of prostaglandins PGFj and PGEj (Fig, 4) leads to the bicydic lactone [12), five-carbon phosphonium salt [13], and phosphonate [14] (19). These compounds contain all the carbon atoms of the prostaglandins and, in [12], aU but one of the chiral centers. Lactone [12] has come to be knovm genetically as the Corey lactone, and its synthesis in one enantiomeric form has been the subject of numerous complementary investigations.
