- PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF NITROALCOHOLS
-
A process of preparing a nitroalcohol, e.g., 2-nitro-2-methyl-1-propane, from a nitropolyol, e.g., 2-nitro-2 -methyl-1,3-propanediol, the process comprising the step of contacting under hydrogenation conditions the nitropolyol with hydrogen, a hydrogenation catalyst and, optionally, a chelating agent.

- A systematic entropy relationship for the general-base catalysis of the deprotonation of a carbon acid. A quantitative probe of transition-state solvation
-
The general-base-catalyzed deprotonation of a carbon acid, the l-methyl-4-(phenylacetyl)pyridinium cation (pKa = 9.02 at 25 °C), has been investigated for 32 general-base catalysts (25 amines and seven phenoxide ions) in aqueous solution. Amines give a generally scattered Bronsted plot; ring-substituted benzylamines have ?= 0.52, and ring-substituted phenoxides have ?= 0.60, with the phenoxides being more reactive than amines of similar basicity. The temperature dependences of the general-base-catalyzed deprotonation of this carbon acid have been measured over the range 15-45 °C for 12 base catalysts (eight primary, secondary, and tertiary amines; 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine; two phenoxide ions; hydroxide ion). The entropies of activation for these deprotonations show a clean curvilinear dependence upon the entropies of protonation of these base species, with the hydroxide ion being the only significant deviant from this relationship. This observation quantitatively establishes the importance of solvation effects as the major source of deviations that are commonly observed in Bronsted relationships for general-base-catalyzed processes.

- Substituted pyridines
-
This invention relates to substituted pyridines prepared by reacting aldehydes, amines, lower carboxylic acids such as acetic acid in the presence of oxygen. The N-substituted pyridinium salts formed can be converted to pyridines by thermal dealkylation. The reactions can be summarized by the following equations: STR1
