Chemical and Photochemical Studies on Carbonyl Compounds

Studies on the Chemical and Photochemical Oxidation of Bacteriochlorophyll

Model studies on flavin-dependent carbonyl-activation: reduction of carbonyl compounds by flavohydroquinone.

The reduction of aldehydes by flavohydroquinone to yield the corresponding alcohols and flavoquinone is reported and discussed in view of its relevance to the mechanism of flavin-dependent dehydrogenation and carbonyl activation. With formaldehyde and flavohydroquinone formation of a covalent 5(HO — CH2)Fl red~ intermediate species is observed. In a reverse reaction 5-methylflavoquinonium catio...

Experimental and theoretical studies on efficient regeneration of carbonyl compounds from oximes under green, mild and completely heterogeneous nanocatalysis

New type of heterogeneous nanocatalyst for deoximation based on Tungsten oxide supported on mesoporousmolecular sieve MCM-41 was developed. This new system representes inexpensive and highly activeheterogeneous nanocatalyst for deoximation under green and mild reaction conditions.

Studies on the Sensitization of Animals with Simple Chemical Compounds

The fate of (14)C-labeled allergens injected intradermally into guinea pigs, namely picryl chloride (PCl*) and 2:4 dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB*), was followed during the induction period of delayed hypersensitivity. Both chemicals were applied in a single injection into one ear in amounts that approached their minimal sensitizing doses (PCl, 0.25 microg; DNCB, 5.0 microg). Radioactivity in the v...

Carbonyl Compounds Enols and Enolate Ons. Unsaturated and Polycarbonyl Compounds

ome of the most useful reactions of carbonyl compounds involve carbonhydrogen bonds adjacent to the carbonyl group. Such reactions, which can be regarded as the backbone of much synthetic organic chemistry, usually result in the replacement of the hydrogen by some other atom or group, as in the I I I I sequence H-C-C=O -+ X-C-C=O. The important examples we I I will consider in this chapter are ...
