Abstract:
The present invention provides a halogenated aniline represented by formula (I) (wherein each of X1 and X2 independently represents a chlorine atom, a bromine atom or an iodine atom), a method for producing the halogenated aniline, and other aspects.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for preparing dihydro-2H-pyran derivatives of formula I: wherein R1 and R2 are defined herein. The process of the invention provides the compound of formula I in concise cascade reactions and in one pot. The compound of formulae I prepared by the process of the invention and its further transformed derivatives are useful for making pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of proliferative diseases.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a simple process for functionalization/grafting of carbon microspheres obtained from bagasse with various active functional groups onto it and use of the same as catalyst for various organic reactions, having very high selectivity and conversion rate.

Abstract:
Methods and compositions are provided for the direct catalytic asymmetric aldol reaction of aldehydes with donor molecules selected from ketones and nitroalkyl compounds. The reactions employ as catalyst a Group 2A or Group 2B metal complex of a ligand of formula I, as defined further herein.
Abstract:
The present invention is a method for synthesizing polynitropolyphenyls, and more particularly 2,2′,2″,4,4′,4″,6,6′,6″-nonanitroterphenyl (NONA), that employs only a dihalotrinitrobenzene as a starting material. The general method comprises reacting copper dust with dihalo-trinitrobenzene to form a dihalo-polynitropolyphenyl product. This product is then reduced through a high-yield conversion by heating it within a solvent with a reagent capable of providing a source of iodide and a proton source.
Abstract:
In the preparation of an .alpha.-fluorinated nitroalkane of the formula ##STR1## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are identical or different and individually represent hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, alkyl, halogenoalkyl or cycloalkyl, orR.sup.1 and R.sup.3 have the meaning indicated andR.sup.2 and R.sup.4 together represent an alkylene group having 3-6 carbon atoms,by conjugated nitrofluorination of the corresponding olefin of the formula ##STR2## the improvement which comprises employing about 1.1 mols of hydrogen fluoride and 1 to 2 mols of nitric acid per mol of olefin and carrying out the reaction in the presence of an agent which binds water, e.g. chlorosulphonic acid, fluorosulphonic acid, sulphur trioxide, sulphur dioxide, thionyl chloride, thionyl fluoride, sulfuryl chloride or sulfuryl fluoride. The end products, some of which are known, are useful as intermediates in synthesizing herbicides.
Abstract:
95-99% pure 4,5-dinitro-1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone which is essentially free from by-products is obtained by "direct nitration" of 1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinones or 1,8-dimethoxyanthraquinones if the concentrations of acid are chosen such that, when the nitration reaction and, if appropriate, the saponification reaction have ended, an 80-100% strength sulphuric acid is present, or such a sulphuric acid concentration is established by adding water, and the 4,5-dinitro-1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone which crystallizes out is separated off.
Abstract:
A process for making nitroalkanes in which an alpha-bromoalkanoic acid is reacted with an alkali metal nitrite, e.g. NaNO.sub.2, in the presence of the magnesium ion (Mg.sup.++) in an aprotic solvent to form a chelate. Neutralization of the chelate with a mineral acid produces a nitroalkane having one less carbon atom than the reactant bromoalkanoic acid.
Abstract:
1-Methyl-3,3-diphenyl-4-hydroxyhexylamine, its salts and O-acyl derivatives, are prepared via a novel nitro intermediate formed by the neutral permanganate oxidation of normethadol or of a noracymethadol.
