Organic Reactions provides a compilation of an authoritative summary of a preparatively useful organic reaction from the primary literature. Practitioners interested in executing such a reaction (or simply learning about the features, advantages, and limitations of this process) thus have a valuable resource to guide their experimentation. Abstracting services, such Chemical Abstracts and Beilstein, allow for the practitioner to locate all of the literature on the subject, but without providing insight into the value of any particular reference.
Organic Reactions chapters constitute a distillation of this avalanche of information into the knowledge needed to correctly implement a reaction and are much more than a surfeit of primary references. This capacity, namely to provide focused, scholarly, and comprehensive overviews of a given transformation, that Organic Reactions takes on even greater significance for the practice of chemical experimentation in the 21st century. The suitability of a given reaction for an unknown application is best judged from the informed vantage point provided by precedent and guidelines offered by a knowledgeable author as provide in Organic Reactions.

For patients with ileus who may be unable to produce stool specimens, polymerase chain reaction testing of perirectal swabs provides an acceptable alternative to stool specimen analysis (Recommendation 2B).
One limitation of the reliance on stool specimens involves patients with suspected severe CDI complicated by ileus as those patients may be unable to produce specimens for testing. For those patients, testing of perirectal swabs may be an accurate and efficient method to detect toxigenic C. difficile. In 2012, Kundrapu et al. [204] described the results of a prospective study of 139 patients being tested for C. difficile infection by polymerase chain reaction. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of testing perirectal swabs were 95.7%, 100%, 100%, and 99.1%, respectively. The authors concluded that for selected patients, perirectal swabs provided an acceptable alternative to stool specimen analysis.
In 1878, the structure of piperidine was still unknown, and A. W. Hofmann[2] made attempts to add hydrogen chloride or bromine to it in the belief that the compound possessed unsaturation (i.e. he performed standard alkene classification test reactions). In the course of his studies, A.W. Hofmann synthesized a number of N-haloamines and N-haloamides and investigated their reactions under acidic and basic conditions.[3][4]He reported that the treatment of 1-bromo-2-propylpiperidine (3) with hot sulfuric acid, followed by basic work-up, resulted in the formation of a tertiary amine,[5][6] which was later[7]shown to be δ-coneceine (4).
More detailed mechanistic studies were conducted by E. J. Corey et al., who examined several features of the reaction relevant to the mechanism: stereochemistry, hydrogen isotope effect, initiation, inhibition, catalysis, intermediates and selectivity of hydrogen transfer.[15] The results, presented below, pointed conclusively to a free-radical chain mechanism involving intramolecular hydrogen transfer as one of the propagation steps.
It was observed that N-chlorodi-n-butylamine was stable in 85% H2SO4 at 25 C in the dark, but it began to disappear soon after irradiation with UV light. The reaction was found to have an induction period of about 12 minutes after the start of irradiation, but it was almost eliminated when the reaction was carried out under nitrogen atmosphere; under oxygen-free conditions a significant increase in the rate of the light-catalyzed decomposition of N-haloamines was reported. These observations provided a strong evidence for the inhibition of the reaction by molecular oxygen.
It was also noted that addition of catalytic amounts of Fe2+ salts to a solution of dibutylchloroamine in H2SO4 in the dark resulted in disappearance of the chloroamine; N-butylpyrrolidine was isolated in good yield upon work-up. This observation was a clear indication that the decomposition of the chloroamine is a free radical chain reaction initiated by Fe2+ ion in an oxidation-reduction process.
Investigation of the free radical decomposition of N-chlorobutylamylamine 13 allowed to determine 1 vs. 2 hydrogen migration. It was reported that only 1-n-butyl-2-methylpyrrolidine 14 was formed under the reaction conditions, no 1-n-amylpyrrolidine 15 was detected. This observation provided substantial evidence that the radical attack exhibits strong preference for the 2 over 1 hydrogen.
Tendency for 3 vs. 1 hydrogen migration was studied with n-butylisohexylamine 16. When 16 was subjected to the standard reaction conditions, rapid disappearance of 16 was observed, but no pyrrolidine product could be isolated. This result suggested that there is a high selectivity for the 3 hydrogen, but the intermediate tertiary chloro compound 17 is rapidly solvolyzed.
In case of 64 and 66, the five-membered nitrogen ring is formed by attack on the unactivated C-18 methyl group of the precursor (63 or 65, respectively) by a suitably placed nitrogen-centered radical at C-20. The ease of this reaction is due to the fact that in the rigid steroid framework the β-C-18 methyl group and the β-C-20 side chain carrying the nitrogen radical are suitably arranged in space in order to allow the 1,5-hydrogen abstraction to proceed via the six-membered transition state.
A very interesting transformation is observed when sulfonamides of primary amides bearing an aromatic ring at the γ-position are treated with various iodanes and iodine under the irradiation with a tungsten lamp.[44] The reaction leads to 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline derivatives and is a good preparative method of six-membered cyclic aromatic amines. For instance, sulfonamide 78 undergoes an intramolecular radical cyclization to afford 79 in relatively good yield.
E. Suárez and co-workers[27] also applied their methodology in the synthesis of chiral 8-oxa-6-azabicyclo[3.2.1]-octane 85 and 7-oxa-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane 87 ring systems. This reaction can be considered to be an intramolecular N-glycosidation that goes through an intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen abstraction promoted by an N-amido radical followed by oxidation of the transient C-radical intermediate to an oxycarbenium ion, which is subsequently trapped by an internal nucleophile.
The formation of carbohydrates represents an essential step to provide building blocks and a source of chemical energy in several models for the emergence of life. Formaldehyde, glycolaldehyde and a basic catalyst are the initial components forming a variety of sugar molecules in the cascade-type multi-step formose reaction. While numerous side reactions and even deterioration can be observed in aqueous media, selective prebiotic sugar formation is feasible in solid-state, mechanochemical reactions and might have occurred in early geochemistry. However, the precise role of different basic catalysts and the influence of the atmospheric conditions in the solid-state formose reaction remain unknown. Here we show, that in a primordial scenario the mechanochemical formose reaction is capable to form monosaccharides with a broad variety of mineral classes as catalysts with only minute amounts of side products such as lactic acid or methanol, independent of the atmospheric conditions. The results give insight into recent findings of formose sugars on meteorites and offer a water-free and robust pathway for monosaccharides independent of the external conditions both for the early Earth or an extra-terrestrial setting.
The product distribution and the conversion proved to be very dependent on the mineral composition. While 4 was formed only in traces for quartz and diaspore, it made up more than 40% of the formose reaction product for portlandite. A higher conversion did not generally correspond to more 6 formation. Calcite and fuchsite were similar in conversion, but while fuchsite produced only traces of 6, calcite yielded 0.3%. Fuchsite and muscovite are both micas, but the chromium-rich fuchsite showed nearly double the conversion. For the two montmorillonite clays, that were obtained from different sources and vary in the calcium, magnesium and sodium content, also a significant divergence in conversion was observed. In general, more tetroses than hexoses were formed and more aldoses than ketoses, but the ratios are tremendously influenced by the catalyst. The aldotetroses/erythrulose ratio varied from a value of 5 for basalt to 53 for chabazite. However, not only the equilibrium between aldoses and ketoses can be influenced by the catalyst, but also the prevalent diastereomer can be chosen. The erythrose/threose ratio ranged from 0.71 for brucite to 1.23 for montmorillonite 1, changing the observed main product within the aldotetroses.
Even though the majority of the milling experiments was performed at room temperature, sugar formation still occurred, albeit to a lesser degree, when performing the reaction under cooling with liquid nitrogen. Hence, the mechanochemical reaction even tolerates harsher environments and a range of thermal conditions as well.
In order to achieve the reaction starting from formaldehyde, other formose catalysts were tested for 1 adsorbed on molecular sieves. 2-Hydroxy-1-phenylethan-1-one as an enolisable compound is known to enhance the reaction in aqueous environments15. It reacts with 1 in an aldol reaction itself and subsequent retro-aldol reactions can produce sugars. Even though in the mechanochemical setting retro-aldol reactions only occurred in minute amounts, traces of sugars 3 and 4 were detected (Supplementary Fig. 1). In addition, thiazolium salts, that are known for their capability to catalyse the umpolung reaction were also probed for their activity in the mechanochemical reaction. 3-Ethylbenzothiazoliumbromide, 3-ethylthiazoliumbromide and 3-methylbenzothiazoliumiodide were chosen. Whereas with the two ethyl-substituted thiazolium salts traces of 3 and 4 were built from 1 again (Supplementary Fig. 1), the use of 3-methylbenzothiazoliumiodide produced no sugar formation. This catalyst also showed less activity in the aqueous reaction than the corresponding ethyl-substituted thiazolium salt14. 2ff7e9595c
