Yield of catalyst

The vanadium pentoxide catalyst Is prepared as follows Suspend 5 g. of pure ammonium vanadate in 50 ml. of water and add slowly 7 5 ml. of pure concentrated hydrochloric acid. Allow the reddish-brown, semi-colloidal precipitate to settle (preferably overnight), decant the supernatant solution, and wash the precipitate several times by decantation. Finally, suspend the precipitate in 76 ml. of water and allow it to stand for 3 days. This treatment renders the precipitate granular and easy to 6lter. Filter the precipitate with suction, wash it several times with cold 5 p>er cent, sodium chloride solution to remove hydrochloric acid. Dry the product at 120° for 12 hours, grind it in a mortar to a fine powder, and heat again at 120° for 12 hours. The yield of catalyst is about 3 - 5 g.

Chemists usually represent reactions by a reaction equation that gives the structures of the starting materials and of the products of a reaction, and, optionally, information on reagents, catalysts, solvents, temperature, etc., as well as data on the yield of the reaction (Figure 3-1). 

Allyl Chloride. Comparatively poor yields are obtained by the zinc chloride - hydrochloric acid method, but the following procedure, which employs cuprous chloride as a catalyst, gives a yield of over 90 per cent. Place 100 ml. of allyl alcohol (Section 111,140), 150 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 2 g. of freshly prepared cuprous chloride (Section II,50,i one tenth scale) in a 750 ml. round-bottomed flask equipped with a reflux condenser. Cool the flask in ice and add 50 ml. of concen trated sulphuric acid dropwise through the condenser with frequent shaking of the flask. A little hydrogen chloride may be evolved towards the end of the reaction. Allow the turbid liquid to stand for 30 minutes in order to complete the separation of the allyl chloride. Remove the upper layer, wash it with twice its volume of water, and dry over anhydrous calcium chloride. Distil the allyl chloride passes over at 46-47°. 

Acetaldehyde (and other aldehydes containing at least one hydrogen atom in the a position) when treated with a small quantity of dilute sodium hydr oxide solution or other basic catalyst gives a good yield of aldol (p hydroxy-n-but3Taldehyde) (I), which readily loses water, either by heating the isolated aldol alone or with a trace of mineral acid, to form crotonaldehyde (II) ... 

By dropping au aromatic acid either alone or mixed with an aliphatic acid into a tube containing a thoria catalyst deposited on pumice and heated to 400-450°. This method is generally employed for the preparation of mixed aromatic - aliphatic ketones. Excess of the aUphatic acid is usually present since this leads to by-products which are easily separated and also tends to increase the yield of the desired ketone at the expense of the symmetrical ketone of the aromatic acid. Thus —... 

Place a solution of 10 -4 g. of benzalacetophenone, m.p. 57° (Section IV,130) in 75 ml. of pure ethyl acetate (Section 11,47,15) in the reaction bottle of the catalytic hydrogenation apparatus and add 0 2 g. of Adams platinum oxide catalyst (for full experimental details, see Section 111,150). Displace the air with hydrogen, and shake the mixture with hydrogen until 0 05 mol is absorbed (10-25 minutes). Filter oflF the platinum, and remove the ethyl acetate by distillation. RecrystaUise the residual benzylacetophenone from about 12 ml. of alcohol. The yield of pure product, m.p. 73°, is 9 g. 

Ethyl benzoate sulphuric acid as a catalyst). Use 30 g. of benzoic acid, 115 g. (146 ml.) of absolute ethyl alcohol and 5 g. (2 7 ml.) of concentrated sulphuric acid. Reflux the mixture for 4 hours and work up as for Methyl Benzoate. The yield of ethyl benzoate, b.p. 212-214°, is 32 g. 

Example 24 Add. 1 mole of 3-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl) propylene,. 25 mole of methyl nitrite,. 008 mole palladium bromide as a catalyst,. 5L of methanol and 36g of water to a flask. Stir magnetically for 2 hoursat 25C. Yield of 3,4-methylenedioxyphenylacetone (also known as 3,4-... 

Phenylpropanolamine. - With catalyst prepared as previously described from 0.5g of palladium chloride and 3g of charcoal, it was possible to reduce two portions of 9.8g of isonitrosopropio-phenone (0.06 mol), dissolved in 150 cc. of absolute alcohol containing 7. Og of hydrogen chloride, to phenylpropanolamine in from 145 - 190 minutes with yields of the isolated chloride from 9.4g to 11. Og, or 84 to 98% of the theoretical. After recrystallization from absolute alcohol the salt melted at 191°. The free base was obtained by treating an aqueous solution of the hydrochloride with alkali on cooling, the liberated amino alcohol solidified and after recrystallization from water melted at 103°."... 

Mannosides are difficult to obtain since here a 2-O-acyl group blocks the -position. 2-O-Benzyl-a-mannosyl bromides give, however, high yields of pure -glycosides with a heterogeneous silver silicate catalyst preventing anomerization and SnI reaction of the bromide H. Paulsen, 1981 B, Q. 

The benzoic acid derivative 457 is formed by the carbonylation of iodoben-zene in aqueous DMF (1 1) without using a phosphine ligand at room temperature and 1 atm[311]. As optimum conditions for the technical synthesis of the anthranilic acid derivative 458, it has been found that A-acetyl protection, which has a chelating effect, is important[312]. Phase-transfer catalysis is combined with the Pd-catalyzed carbonylation of halides[3l3]. Carbonylation of 1,1-dibromoalkenes in the presence of a phase-transfer catalyst gives the gem-inal dicarboxylic acid 459. Use of a polar solvent is important[314]. Interestingly, addition of trimethylsilyl chloride (2 equiv.) increased yield of the lactone 460 remarkabiy[3l5]. Formate esters as a CO source and NaOR are used for the carbonylation of aryl iodides under a nitrogen atmosphere without using CO[316]. Chlorobenzene coordinated by Cr(CO)j is carbonylated with ethyl formate[3l7]. 

Esters react with 2-aminothiazole and derivatives in the presence of catalysts the reaction between 3-ketoesters and 2-aminothiazole is. for example, realized in acidic medium (278. 279) and yields 2-aceto-acetamidothiazole (114) (Scheme 771. No secondary products are...
