Interesting interferences in a direct serum creatinine reaction

A spectrophotometric study on a direct picric acid reaction for creatinine in severely jaundiced serums is described. A problem appears to be caused by the oxidation of bilirubin which minimizes rising absorbance when using continuous measurement. Simple examples of interferences with the kinetic mode are shown along with the hitherto unreported interference of the drug, Cephalothin, which also undergoes a picric acid reaction. A procedure in which a delta absorbance is obtained after decolorization of the Jaffé complex by acidification is shown as one available means for obviating the bilirubin effect. However, the theory that Jaffé-reactive interferences do not decolorize with the same acid treatment is not totally applicable when the drug, Cephalothin, is present.     

The behaviour of an electrochemical detector used in liquid chromatography and continuous flow voltammetry: Part III. Potential dependent current

The potential dependence of the steady-state current at a channel electrode has been calculated approximately. Six regions of behavior can be described from a consideration of the characteristic times of diffusion, fluid flow and electrochemical reaction. Wave shapes and half-wave potential shifts are as expected for amperometric cells under all values of the heterogeneous reaction rate constant, and for reversible electrochemical reactions in a coulometric cell. The wave adopts a peculiar shape for irreversible reactions at a coulometric electrode. This is caused by the inapplicability of the concept of mass transfer control in these systems.     

Potentiometric studies of dithiooxamide with a sulphide-selective membrane electrode

The sulphide-selective electrode is applicable to the determination of dithiooxamide by titration with silver nitrate. The effect of the alkali content of the solutions on the reaction has been studied. The reaction products are silver sulphide, oxalic acid, and nitric acid. If the alkali concentration of the solution is lower than that equivalent to the acid formed during the titration, the amount of sulphide produced by hydrolysis decreases and the equilibrium potential is established more slowly.The determination is rapid and accurate in the presence of 1 M sodium hydroxide.     

The mechanism of photoinsertion of haloalkenes into Fe---C bonds of dieneiron tricarbonyls

1,1-Dichloro-2,2-difluoroethylene (like other fluoroalkenes) and dieneiron tricarbonyls react photochemically to give products in which the haloalkene has inserted into the Fe---C(1) bond of the diene complex. The reaction is regiospecific with respect to both diene and haloalkene. The reaction is shown to occur by (a) photodissociation of a CO ligand from iron; (b) π-complexation of haloalkene; (c) π → σ ligand rearrangements accompanied by CO reattachment. The adducts undergo hydrolysis on silica gel chromatography, to give substituted 2-chlorocyclohexadienoneiron tricarbonyls.     

Analytical studies using iodine-luminol chemiluminescence

Trace amounts of substances have been related to iodine consumption monitored by chemiluminescence from the iodine-luminol system. Iodine titrations of sulphite and arsenic(III) have been carried out at levels of 1.0 x 10(-7) and 5.0 x 10(-8)M with a precision and error of better than 1% on a day-to-day basis. A calibrated standard of 1.8 ppm SO(2) in air was analysed with a precision of +/-1.2%, and an error of 0.9%. A rate method has been developed based on the reaction between iodine and penicillin G; a linear range from 10(-8) to 10(-7)M was found, the precision being +/-9%.     

Efficient synthesis of 3-benzoyl Benzo[b]thiophenes and raloxifene via Mercury(II)-Catalyzed cyclization of 2-alkynylphenyl alkyl sulfoxides

The unique selective estrogen receptor modulator, Raloxifene (1), and antitubulin agent 2 were synthesized through the key intermediate, 4-methoxybenzyl 2-bromo-4-methoxyphenyl sulfoxide (6), respectively. It was found that compared with the o-sulfanyl aryl bromides, the sulfinyl group at ortho position accelerated the Sonogashira coupling reaction of aryl bromides. Thus, compound 6 was coupled with 3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl acetylene, followed by mercury-catalyzed cyclization reaction afford compound 2 in 79% overall yield. Raloxifene (1) was prepared from compound 6 in four steps and 33% overall yield via coupling reaction with 1-trimethylsily-2-(4-tert-butyldimethylsiloxy)phenylethyne, mercury-catalyzed cyclization reaction, alkylation and demethylation.

Analytical Use of Copper (II)-Neocuproine in The Spectrophotometric Determination of Hydrazines

Abstract

This work characterizes a newly developed, sensitive and convenient spectrophotometric procedure for determination of sub-ppm concentrations of hydrazine and its organic derivatives. The method is based on formation of the cuprous neocuproine chelate after reaction of hydrazines with a prepared aqueous solution of the copper (II)-neocuproine complex. The cuprous chelate is then directly measured in aqueous solution at 458 nm. The effect of several experimental conditions influencing the reaction are presented and the method was employed for the analyis of 5 different hydrazine compounds. The standard deviation did not exceed ± 0.47%.     

Reaction of 2-t-butyl-1,3-butadiene with π-allylic palladium complexes. A novel cyclization of allylilc ligands

The reaction of 2-t-butyl-1,3-butadiene with π-allylic palladium chlorides is described. The 2-chloroallyl complex gives a π-allylic complex with an open chain structure, in which the butenyl group in is the anti-position. Allyl-1-carbomethoxyallyl-, methallyl-, and 1-carbomethoxymethallyl-palladium chlorides give six-membered cyclic complexes. The product of the former two are π-allyllic and those of the latter are σ-bonded complexes.     

Reaction of Nitroxides with Sulfur Containing Compounds II [1]. Preparation of Nitroxides Bearing an Isothiocyanate Substituent in View of the Nitroxyl Group Reduction with Thiophosgene

Summary.  The reaction of thiophosgene with 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (used as a model nitroxyl radical) was examined. 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine and 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-hydroxypiperidine were identified as products. The reaction is not competitive with the reaction of thiophosgene with an amino group. Thus, three nitroxides with an isothiocyanate group were synthesized from thiophosgene and the nitroxides containing the amino substituent. Corresponding author.

Selective degradation of lignin and elimination of HO radicals in pulps by O_3 and UV laser flash irradiation

HO radical is an aggressive reagent to abstract hydrogen from diverse substitutes and lead them to degradation, however, in reaction of active oxygen species with lignins, complex phenolic polymers, in dispersed lignocellulose such as pulp for environment-benign delignification, HO radicals should be eliminated as more as possible to prevent cellulose from unfavorably concomitant degradation. A reaction system of O3 is constructed under UV laser flash irradiation, and HO radicals are controlled efficiently by it. A new mechanism is proposed, for the first time, that O radicals generated from reaction of O3 with UV laser flash irradiation might be the contributor to scavenge HO radicals.

A ferric nitrate-promoted cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction of N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) with toluene derivatives is reported.

Reactions of group IV organometallic compounds : XXIX. Insertion reactions of (trimethylsilylmethylene)phosphorane with heterocumulenes. Inhibition of Wittig type reactions

A reaction of (trimethylsilylmethylene)dimethylphenylphosphorane, PhMe₂PCHSiMe₃ (I), with phenyl isocyanate affords a 2/1 insertion product, which results from insertion of phenyl isocyanate into both the CSi and CH bonds of I. By way of contrast, a reaction of isothiocyanate and carbon disulfide with I affords 1/1 products by insertion of these heterocumulenes into the CSi bond of I. In these reactions, Wittig-type elimination of dimethylphenylphosphine oxide or sulfide did not occur because of irreversible migrations of the trimethylsilyl group to the anionic centers of the Zwitterionic intermediates.     

Stochastic model of dissociation-recombination kinetics in micelles

The small number of reagents solubilized in a micelle prohibits the use of conventional reaction kinetics. In order to describe the kinetics of the reaction A + B ? AB proceeding in a micellar phase, a stochastic model is evaluated. The deviation of these results from those obtained by conventional kinetics may be as high as 20%.
