Synthesised

M.p. 234-235 C. Hydrolyses to aspartic acid. L-asparagine can be prepared from lupin seedlings, and DL-asparagine is synthesised from ammonia and maleic anhydride. L-asparagine is very widely distributed in plants, being found in all the Leguminosae and Gramineae, and in many other seeds, roots and buds. 

Taking into account that it is necessary to make vary the flaw detector settings during the main part of the verifications, the total number of verifications is rather important. So, Technical Center for Mechanical Industries (CETIM) began the development of an electronic system enabling to benefit of the current possibilities of generation of synthesised radio frequency signals and help of personal computer for operator assistance and calculation. 

Besides stmctural variety, chemical diversity has also increased. Pure silicon fonns of zeolite ZSM-5 and ZSM-11, designated silicalite-l [19] and silicahte-2 [20], have been synthesised. A number of other pure silicon analogues of zeolites, called porosils, are known [21]. Various chemical elements other than silicon or aluminium have been incoriDorated into zeolite lattice stmctures [22, 23]. Most important among those from an applications point of view are the incoriDoration of titanium, cobalt, and iron for oxidation catalysts, boron for acid strength variation, and gallium for dehydrogenation/aromatization reactions. In some cases it remains questionable, however, whether incoriDoration into the zeolite lattice stmcture has really occurred. 

Nitrogen is an essential constituent of all living matter, being one of the elements present in proteins. Proteins are synthesised by... 

The use of larger particles in the cyclotron, for example carbon, nitrogen or oxygen ions, enabled elements of several units of atomic number beyond uranium to be synthesised. Einsteinium and fermium were obtained by this method and separated by ion-exchange. and indeed first identified by the appearance of their concentration peaks on the elution graph at the places expected for atomic numbers 99 and 100. The concentrations available when this was done were measured not in gcm but in atoms cm. The same elements became available in greater quantity when the first hydrogen bomb was exploded, when they were found in the fission products. Element 101, mendelevium, was made by a-particle bombardment of einsteinium, and nobelium (102) by fusion of curium and the carbon-13 isotope. 

Element 103, lawrencium, completes the actinides. Following this series, the transition elements should continue with the filling of the 6d orbitals. There is evidence for an element 104 (eka-hafnium) it is believed to form a chloride MCl4, similar to that of hafnium. Less positive evidence exists for elements 105 and 106 attempts (so far unsuccessful) have been made to synthesise element 114 (eka-lead). because on theoretical grounds the nucleus of this elemeni may be stable to decay by spontaneous fusion (as indeed is lead). Super-... 

Many molecules are obtained and used in a crystalline form, the nature of which can have e significant impact on their properties and behaviour. Moreover, it is sometimes possible foi a given material to exist in more than one crystalline form, depending upon the conditions under which it was prepared. This is the phenomenon of polymorphism. This can be important because the various polymorphs may themselves have different properties. It is Iberefore of interest to be able to predict the three-dimensional atomic structure(s) that a gi en molecule may adopt, for those cases where it is difficult to obtain experimental data and also where one might wish to prioritise molecules not yet synthesised. 

The derivation of a QSAR equation involves a number of distinct stages. First, it is obviousl necessary to synthesise the compormds and determine their biological activities. Whe planning which compormds to synthesise, it is important to cover the range of propertie that may affect the activity. This means applying the data-checking and -manipulation prc cedures discussed earlier. For example, it would be unwise to make a series of coinpound with almost identical partition coefficients if this is believed to be an important property. 

Combinatorial chemistry has significantly increased the nurnjjers of molecules that can be synthesised in a modern chemical laboratory. The classic approach to combinatorial synthesis involves the use of a solid support (e.g. polystyrene beads) together with a scheme called split-mix. Solid-phase chemistry is particularly appealing because it permits excess reagent to be used, so ensuring that the reaction proceeds to completion. The excess... 

The term enumeration when applied to a combinatorial library refers to the process by which the cormection tables for the product structures in a real or virtual library are produced. It should be noted that a single compound can be considered as a library of one and so enumeration can equally well be applied in this case. However, whereas it is considered reasonable for a chemist to draw the structure of a single compoimd manually (which may have taken days, if not months or years, to synthesise), it is clearly not practical to do so even for small combinatorial libraries. Hence the need for automated tools to perform this procedure. 

This reaction illustrates one of the methods by which R. Kuhn synthesised long polyene chains terminated at each end by phenyl groups. 

Since an enzyme is a biological catalyst and therefore merely accelerates a reaction, it cannot alter the position of equilibrium in a reversible reaction. The hydrolysis of p-methylglucoside is reversible and emulsin should therefore be capable also of synthesising this compound frc n glucose and methanol. This synthesis can actually be carried out by the action of the enzyme on glucose dissolved in an excess of methanol, the excess of the alcohol throwing the equilibrium over to the left. Owing to experimental difficulties, this reaction is not here described. 

Quinoline derivatives may be synthesised by heating aii aromatic amine with an aldehyde or a mixture of aldehydes in the presence of concentrated hydrochloric or sulphuric acid this synthesis is known as the Doebner - Miller reaction. Thus aniline and paraldehyde afford 2-methylquinohne or quinaldine. 

The important drug sulphapyridine (or M. B. 693 or 2-sulphaniIyl-aminopyridine) may be readily synthesised from 2-aminopyridine and p-acet-amidobenzenesulplionyl chloride (Section IX,9) as follows ... 

The higjily water-soluble dienophiles 2.4f and2.4g have been synthesised as outlined in Scheme 2.5. Both compounds were prepared from p-(bromomethyl)benzaldehyde (2.8) which was synthesised by reducing p-(bromomethyl)benzonitrile (2.7) with diisobutyl aluminium hydride following a literature procedure2.4f was obtained in two steps by conversion of 2.8 to the corresponding sodium sulfonate (2.9), followed by an aldol reaction with 2-acetylpyridine. In the preparation of 2.4g the sequence of steps had to be reversed Here, the aldol condensation of 2.8 with 2-acetylpyridine was followed by nucleophilic substitution of the bromide of 2.10 by trimethylamine. Attempts to prepare 2.4f from 2.10 by treatment with sodium sulfite failed, due to decomposition of 2.10 under the conditions required for the substitution by sulfite anion. 

He therefore wanted to synthesise TM 29 to check. Even with modem spectroscopic methods the quickest way to check the identity of a compound will often be to synthesise it by an unambiguous route and compare the n.m.r. and fingerprint i.r. spectra. How then would you make TM 29 ...

The final condensation could haye gone the other way too, but it doesn t, presumably because attack on, the other carbonyl group is hindered. TM 120 is in fact piperitone, one of the flayouring principles of mint, and has been synthesised essentially by this route g.C.S... 1935, 1583 Rec. Tray. Ctum.. 1964, 464 Zhur.

Far more is achieved by and TM 289 is simply synthesised by irradiating norbomene (A). The stereochemistry turns out all right. How about TM 290 ... 

Comments The diene A is symmetrical so it doesn t matter which double bond is attacked by the carbene. On the other hand, it may be difficult to stop carbene addition to the second double bond. The only control over the stereochemistry will be that the trans compound we want is more stable. Japanese chemists have recently synthesised optically active trans chrysanthemic acid by this route (Tetrahedron Letters. 1977, 2599). 

This will clearly be made somehow by discormections a and b but the order of events is important. We must discoimect first, that is synthesise last, the bond with the wrong orientation - i.e. meta to the t-butyl group. The reaction will then be intramolecular and orientation doesn t matter. This gives us 399B, and 1 show one possible route from that.

Chemicals responsible for odor in some PUR foams were synthesised by polymerisation of PO in CH2CI2 with Bp2(C2H )20 catalyst (114). The yield was 25% volatile material and 75% polymeric material. The 25% fraction consisted of dimethyldioxane isomers, dioxolane isomers, DPG, TPG, crown ethers, tetramers, pentamers, etc, and 2-ethy1-4,7-dimethyl-1,3,6-trioxacane (acetal of DPG and propionaldehyde). The latter compound is mainly responsible for the musty odor found in some PUR foams. This material is not formed under basic conditions but probably arises during the workup when acidic clays are used for catalyst removal. 

Oxidative coupling of aromatic compounds via the SchoU reaction has been appHed successhiUy to synthesise a polyarylethersulfone (18). High molecular weight polymer was obtained upon treating 4,4 -di(l-naphthoxy)diphenylsulfone and 4,4 -di(l-naphthoxy)ben2ophenone with ferric chloride. Equimolar amounts of the Lewis acid are required and the method is limited to naphthoxy-based monomers and other systems that can undergo the SchoU reaction.
