Wide applications

A wide variety of /3-lactams are available by these routes because of the range of substituents possible in either the ketene or its equivalent substituted acetic acid derivative. Considerable diversity in imine structure is also possible. In addition to simple Schiff bases, imino esters and thioethers, amidines, cyclic imines and conjugated imines such as cinnamy-lidineaniline have found wide application in the synthesis of functionalized /3-lactams. A-Acylhydrazones can be used, but phenylhydrazones and O-alkyloximes do not give /3-lactams. These /3-lactam forming reactions give both cis and /raMS-azetidin-2-ones some control over stereochemistry can, however, be exercised by choice of reactants and conditions. 

Good Good 90 S.9 Wide application in food and pharmaceutical industries 

X-rays find wide applications in X-ray photography and in crystallography. Prolonged exposure of the human body to the rays induces a dangerous form of dermatitis, and even sterility, but controlled exposures are applied to alleviate cancer. 

The X-ray TV introscope can find wide application in engineering, atomic, chemical, heat power, oil and gas industries.

An alternative K-value formulation that has received wide application to mixtures containing polar and/or nonpolar compounds is 

Oximes (compare Section III,74,B). The following procedure has wide application. Dissolve 0-5 g. of hydroxylamine hydrochloride in 2 ml. of water, add 2 ml. of 10 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution and 0-2 g. of the aldehyde (or ketone). If the latter is insoluble, add just sufficient alcohol to the mixture to give a clear solution. Heat the mixture under reflux for 10-15 minutes, and then cool in ice. If crystals separate, filter these off, and recrystallise from alcohol, dilute alcohol, benzene or light petroleum (b.p. 60-80°). If no solid separates on cooling, dilute with 2-3 volumes of water, filter the precipitated sohd, and recrystallise. 

Cathodic Protection This electrochemical method of corrosion control has found wide application in the protection of carbon steel underground structures such as pipe lines and tanks from external soil corrosion. It is also widely used in water systems to protect ship hulls, offshore structures, and water-storage tanks. 

Fluid couplings have a proven record of reliability and ease of operation. They thus have found wide application wherever a light load start and capticily control of drives is required as in fans and pumps. 

Since allylation with allylic carbonates proceeds under mild neutral conditions, neutral allylation has a wide application to alkylation of labile compounds which are sensitive to acids or bases. As a typical example, successful C-allylation of the rather sensitive molecule of ascorbic acid (225) to give 226 is possible only with allyl carbonate[l 37]. Similarly, Meldrum s acid is allylated smoothly[138]. Pd-catalyzed reaction of carbon nucleophiles with isopropyl 2-methylene-3,5-dioxahexylcarbomite (227)[I39] followed by hydrolysis is a good method for acetonylation of carbon nucleophiles. 

For the mechanism of this reaction, see Robinson and Robinson,1918, H3i 639 1924, 145, 827.) The reaction is of wide application for example, the use of methyl-phenyl-hydrazine, CsH5(CHj)> -iN H, in the above reaction gives i-methyl-2-phenylindole, whereas pyruvic acid, CH CO COOH, when converted to its phenylhydrazone and then indolised, gives indole-2-carboxylic 

On the other hand, in spite of some interesting tinctorial properties, it does not seem that thiazolo dyes received wide application in the texlile industry because they suffer from lack of stability to light and chemical agents. 

On the whole, the cycloaddition of alkynes to nitrile N-oxides is one of the most important routes to isoxazoles, but in spite of its potentially wide application, its synthetic utility is less than that of the corresponding reaction with alkenes for the following reasons. (1) 

The Type K thermocouple (Table 11.59) is more resistant to oxidation at elevated temperatures than the Type E, J, or T thermocouple, and consequently finds wide application at temperatures above 500°C. It is recommended for continuous use at temperatures within the range — 250 to 1260°C in inert or oxidizing atmospheres. It should not be used in sulfurous or reducing atmospheres, or in vacuum at high temperatures for extended times. 

The use of microwave irradiation as an energy source for chemical reactions and processes has been extensively investigated during recent years and has found wide application in various fields of chemistry and technology. The following presentation focuses on the scope and potential of microwaves in chemical analysis. 

The above examples illustrate reactions at an electron-deficient carbon atom. Other 1,1-bielectrophiles allow the direct introduction of a heteroatom into the resultant heterocycle. The most widely applicable and versatile methods for the synthesis of 1,2,5-thiadiazoles and 1,2,5-selenadiazole rely on this approach. 

The material of this chapter and, for that matter, of the two preceding chapters has wide applicability in the area of technology and manufacture. To do justice to this facet of the subject would require a book in itself, so we must settle for a few paragraphs concerned with industrial applications. 

The reduction of dimensions also reduces volumes which are accessible to the detector. Thus, detection principles related to geometric dimensions of the detector cell ai e not ideally suited for coupling to microsystems, whereas surface sensitive principles, such as electrochemical methods or optical methods utilizing the evanescent field of a waveguide, or methods which can be focussed on a small amount of liquid, such as electrochemiluminescence (ECE), ai e better suited. This is why electrochemiluminescence detectors ai e combined to microsystems. Moreover ECE has found wide applications in biochemistry because of its high sensitivity, relatively simplicity and feasibility under mild conditions.
