Terminal couplings

An interesting application of a large-scale Mizoroki-Heck reaction with allylamines has been reported by Brown Ripin et al. Several different amine protecting groups and

Salicylic acid has been found useful as a terminal coupling component in direct or mordant dyes to provide a bidentate site for metallisation. The free acid is also capable of complexing and ammonium chromisalicylate (5.12) is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of metal-dye complexes. Cl Mordant Orange 1 (5.3) and Yellow 5 (5.13) are examples of dyes...

Sinus node reentry or intraatrial reentry occur less commonly, and neither is as well described as AV nodal or AV reentry. Aside from a characteristic abrupt onset and termination, coupled with subtle changes in P-wave morphology, these tachycardias can be difficult to diagnose. Electrophysiologic studies may be necessary to determine the ultimate mechanism of the PSVT. 

F N.m.r. spectra have been recorded at 118 K for a solution of BF3 and Bu4N BF7 (in a 1 1 molar ratio) they may be analysed in terms of a B2F7 ion having a bridging F atom i.e. F3B—F—BF3. The B—F—B bond is apparently very weak, however. The geminal FBF(terminal) coupling constant is 95... 

Addition of water to the reaction mixture and conduction of the reaction for 2.8 min at 55 W smoothly produced 4-tert-butylacetophenone with an isolated yield of 11%. An equally high selectivity for terminal coupling was encountered by application... 

Since homolytic decomposition of hydroperoxides into free radicals (stage 4) requires relatively high activation energies, this process is rather slow and becomes effective only at temperature of about 120°C or higher. [20] However, in the presence of catalytic amoimts of certain metal ions, hydroperoxides decompose at a lower temperature and/or at higher rate. This degradation mechanism involves a series of redox processes in which the most active catalysts are those derived by metals easy to oxidize or to reduce by one-electron, such as a series of transition metals like Fe, Co, Mn, Cu, Ce, V. Then several competitive termination couplings between different radicals (step 5) or the decompositions of pero radicals (step 6) lead to radical destruction.

Stereo-complex films were reported by Masutani et al7 % combining bifunctional PLLA and PDLA pre-polymers, multi-stereo-block copolymers having different block lengths and sequences are obtained. The resultant copolymers are readily fabricated into transparent films by hot-pressing. The films present excellent thermal stability and thermo-mechanical properties because of the easy formation of stereo-complex crystals. This synthetic method based on tbe dual terminal couplings allows obtaining stereo-block copolymers of PLLA and PDLA showing excellent thermo-mechanical properties and melt processability. 

Although a variety of solvents have been reported for peptide synthesis, we use highly purified DMF for all coupling reactions Protocol 7). V ere Fmoc-protected amino acids require acid-labile side-chain protection, we recommend Arg(Pbf), Asp(OtBu), Cys(Trt), Glu(OfBu), His(Boc), Lys(Boc), Ser( u), Thr(rBu), Trp(Boc), and T3n-(tBu). Although Fmoc-His(Boc)-OH is thermally labile and must be stored at -20 C, we have found that it couples more efficiently than either Fmoc-His(Trt)-OH or Fmoc-His(Bum)-OH. Fmoc-Asn(Trt)-OH and Fmoc-Gln(Trt)-OH are generally used with HBTU, HATU, or BOP activation the non-side-chain protected derivatives of Asn and Gin can be used with DIC/HOBt activation in short peptides or at the N-terminal coupling (47). 

Termination Coupling can give the product, but this step destroys radicals.
