antranilic acid is an intermediate material which we can produce by hofmann's rearrangement reaction. in this process phithalimide is a main reactant. one procedure for produceing phthalimide is the reaction of phithalic anhydride with urea in the presence of acetic acid. in this research, the kinetics of this reaction was studied at 115 c. we found that the reaction of phthalic anhydride ...

this study was carried out to investigate the effect of esterification on the surface roughness of eastern cottonwood. eastern cottonwood was modified without using any catalyst and solvent at different temperatures and times with two linear chain carboxylic acid anhydrides (acetic anhydride or propionic anhydride). different weight percentage gains (wpgs) were obtained at different conditions....

New routes to the synthesis of various novel chiral maleimides are described. The oxabicyclic anhydride 2 readily available exo-Diels-Alder adduct of furan and maleic anhydride was used as a vehicle, which in turn reacted with hydrochlorides of amino acids 3a-f in the presence of Et3N with release of furan to give the requisite novel chiral imides 4a-f in good to moderate yields. The stereosele...

Urea-hydrogen peroxide (UHP) was used in the presence of maleic anhydride as mediator in a simple and convenient method for the oxidation in high yield of some thiols to the corresponding disulfides. Peroxymaleic acid formed in situ from the reaction of UHP with maleic anhydride has a key role in this oxidation. Performance of the reaction in various solvents showed that methanol was the solven...

The rate of protein degradation in Zea mays leaves has been estimated by using tritiated water and [(3)H]acetic anhydride as the labeling agents. Both methods circumvent many of the problems usually associated with measuring protein degradation in plants. The half-life of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase protein in second leaves of 13-day-old seedlings under continuous light was found to b...

The reactions of radiolytically generated OH radicals and H atoms with the cyclic dipeptides of glycine, alanine and sarcosine in deoxygenated aqueous solutions and the subsequent reactions of the transient peptide radicals were studied in the absence and presence of K,Fe(CN)ft as oxidant by pulse radiolysis and product analysis. Hydroxyl radicals and H atoms react with glycine anhydride and al...
