Gramstad and coworkers78 studied the formation of association complexes between CHC13 and N, N-disubstituted amides, four alkyl sulphoxides and diethyl sulphite in CC14 by following the JH NMR. The association constants (Afass) were determined by equation ll79,... 

Then the AH values of sulphoxides and amides were correlated with Taft s a affording the following equation ... 

In the course of this study, the authors determined /Lvalues for dibenzyl, methyl phenyl, methyl p-nitrophenyl, di-p-tolyl, di-isopropyl and tetramethylene sulphoxides and for diethyl, dipropyl and dibutyl sulphites. The /Lscales are applied to the various reactions or the spectral measurements. The /Lscales have been divided into either family-dependent (FD) types, which means two or more compounds can share the same /Lscale, family-independent (FI) types. Consequently, a variety of /Lscales are now available for various families of the bases, including 29 aldehydes and ketones, 17 carboxylic amides and ureas, 14 carboxylic acids esters, 4 acyl halides, 5 nitriles, 10 ethers, 16 phosphine oxides, 12 sulphinyl compounds, 15 pyridines and pyrimidines, 16 sp3 hybridized amines and 10 alcohols. The enthalpies of formation of the hydrogen bond of 4-fluorophenol with both sulphoxides and phosphine oxides and related derivatives fit the empirical equation 18, where the standard deviation is y = 0.983. Several averaged scales are shown in Table 1588. 

Sulphoxides with -carboxylic acid or amide groups are converted, in nearly quantitative yields, to the sulphone whilst other acids and amides did not show oxidation. In the cases where oxidation did occur, the acid group was converted to the acid chloride (equation 31) whilst the amide was converted to the nitrile (equation 32). These results indicate that neighbouring-group participation in the case of carboxylic acids and amides occurs only when a five-membered intermediate is formed. In the case of hydroxyl groups, four-, five-or six-membered intermediates are favourable. 

The solvent used was hexane-isopropanol(4 1). Later, Allenmark and colleagues obtained enantioselective HPLC retention of a series of alkyl carboxymethyl sulphoxides (and other sulphoxides and classes) on a column of (R)-lV-(3,5-dinitrobenzoyl)phenylglycine covalently bound via an amide bond (CSP 1), or ionically bound (CSP 2), to 3-aminopropylsilica the mobile phase was again hexane-isopropanol(4 l, or, also 19 1) and determination carried out at 254 or 280nm. The sulphoxides were better resolved on CSP 2. 

More recent developments in the field of the Pirkle-type CSPs are the mixed r-donor/ r-acceptor phases such as the Whelk-Of and the Whelk-02 phases.The Whelk-Of is useful for the separation of underiva-tized enantiomers from a number of families, including amides, epoxides, esters, ureas, carbamates, ethers, aziridines, phosphonates, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, alcohols and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.It has been used for the separation of warfarin, aryl-amides,aryl-epoxides and aryl-sulphoxides. The phase has broader applicability than the original Pirkle phases. The broad versatility observed on this phase compares with the polysaccharide-derived CSPs... 

This chiral column has been shown successfully to resolve enantiomeric mixtures (or racemates) of aromatic alcohols including l,l -bi-2-naphthol and its analogues (p. 836), aromatic hydroxy (or alkoxy) carboxylic esters and amides, amino acid derivatives, sulphoxides, cyclic imides and amides, lactones, etc. Even this list should not be regarded as limiting. The potential of this method, coupled with the simplicity of operation will undoubtedly be extensively developed and explored in the coming years. 

The analogues [menthyloxy(tosyloxy)iodo]benzenes, with both (+) and (-) forms of menthol, in their reactions with non-symmetric sulphides caused considerable asymmetric induction hydrolysis of their salts afforded sulphoxides of high optical purity [52]. By using A-phenyliodonio tosylates of benzamide (and some other similar derivatives from different amides, Section 7.4.1) dimethyl sulphide was converted into amidosulphonium tosylates which can serve as the precursors of sulphilimines [51] ... 

Hydrophilic molecules are composed of ions (such as sulphonate, sulphate, carboxylate, phosphate and quaternary ammonium), polar groups (such as primary amines, amine oxides, sulphoxides and phosphine oxide) and non-polar groups with electronegative atoms (such as oxygen atom in ethers, aldehydes, amides, esters and ketones and nitrogen atoms in amides, nitroalkanes and amines). These molecules associate with the hydrogen bonding network in water. 

These stringent requirements are demonstrated by few chemicals other than water. It remains to be seen to what extent the limitations can be relaxed for a chemical promoter to be acceptable (to patients and to the regulatory authorities). Enhancers include a wide range of chemical entities that increase skin permeability (Figure 8.9), such as sulphoxides, alcohols, polyols, pyrrolidones, alkanes, fatty acids, esters, amines and amides, terpenes, surfactants, cyclodextrins, water, etc. 

The upper temperature at which polyelectrolytes can be utilised can be extended by substitution of a polar organic solvent for water in the electrolyte. Conductivities of up to 1 Q 1m 1 have been obtained for sulphonated PEEK using anhydrous pyrazole and imidazole at 200 C (Kreuer et al., 1998). Solvents used to form electrolytes in Nafion membranes have included alcohols, amines, propylene carbonate, dimethoxyethane, dimethyl form-amide, dimethyl sulphoxide and TV-methyl pyrrolidone. Typical conductivities for the latter three solvents are 10 to 1 O-lm 1 at room temperature, and the conductivity is thermally activated with activation energies in the range 9 to 24 kJ/mol (Doyle et al., 2001).

Initial studies of solvent effects, on the reactions of triarylarsonium benzoylylides with p-nitrobenzaldehyde in N, A-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulphoxide or methanol, indicated little solvent effect in these cases" ", but later studies of the more finely balanced reactions of semi-stabilized ylides have provided examples of strong influences due to the effect of different base and solvent when the ylide is generated in the presence of a carbonyl compound ". Thus, when benzyltriphenylarsonium bromide or p-chloroben-zyltriphenylarsonium bromide were treated with sodium hydride in benzene in the presence of a variety of p-substituted benzaldehydes the products were alkenes, but if sodium ethoxide in ethanol was used the isolated products were epoxides ". Likewise, when triphenylarsonium benzylylide was generated by phenyllithium in the presence of either benzaldehyde or acetaldehyde, the preponderant product was the epoxide whereas use of sodium amide as base provided mostly the alkene . Similar results were obtained when an allyltriphenylarsonium salt was deprotonated using different hexamethyldisilaz-...
