Hydrolysis of Proteins with p-Toluenesulfonic Acid

A new procedure for analyses for tryptophan in proteins and glycoproteins is described. The method utilizes ptoluenesulfonic acid as the catalyst for hydrolysis and the amino acid analyzer for the quantitative estimation of tryptophan. The hydrolysis of proteins is carried out in 3 N p-toluenesulfonic acid containing 0.2 % 3-(Z-aminoethyl)indole in evacuated sealed tubes at 110” for 22, 48, and...

A FACILE SYNTHESIS OF (S) – (-) – PROPRANOLOL

A one-pot synthesis of (S)-(-)-propranolol is reported. Zn(NO3)2/(+)-tartaric acid catalyzed enantioselective synthesis of (S)-(-)-propranolol via kinetic resolution of key intermediate ?-naphthyl glycidyl ether with high optical and chemical yield.

A Facile and Environmental Friendly Method for C=N Bond Cleavage of Imines Using p-Toluenesulfonic Acid in Solid State

A simple, efficient and clean procedure has been developed for the cleavage of imines C=N bond. Deprotection of imines to their parent carbonyl and amine compounds was achieved using p-toluenesulfonic acid in the solid state condition at 25-45 ˚C. The salient features of this methodology are shorter reaction times, cheap processing, high yields of product and easy availability of the catalyst. ...

Continuous Synthesis of Oleyl Oleate in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide using Solid p-Toluenesulfonic Acid as Catalyst

Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) was used as solvent to synthesize oleyl oleate as an analog of Jojoba oil from oleic acid and oleyl alcohol with high conversion (100%) of the acid into ester in a short time of 100 min. Utilizing a low cost solid catalyst, p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate (PTSA), the esterification reaction was performed, without any prior preparation step...
