Metabolic depropargylation and its relationship to aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibition in vivo
Shirota,DeMaster,Elberling,Nagasawa
, p. 669 - 673 (1980)
The relationship between metabolic depropargylation in vitro to inhibition of the low K(m) aldehyde dehydrogenase (AIDH) of rat liver mitochondria in vivo was determined for a number of compounds bearing a propargyl substituent on nitrogen or oxygen. Only those compounds which enzymatically released the highly reactive α, β-acetylenic aldehyde, propiolaldehyde, when incubated in vitro with phenobarbital-induced rat liver microsomes, e.g., tripropargylamine (4), pargyline (1a), and N-propargylbenzylamine (1b), significantly elevated blood acetaldehyde levels when administered in vivo. Mitochondrial AlDH activity in these animals was corresponding reduced to ≤20% that of control animals. Compounds that did not inhibit mitochondrial AlDH activity to this degree did not produce significant levels of propiolaldehyde when incubated with microsomes. Thus, for this series of compounds, metabolic depropargylation is a requirement for AlDH inhibitory activity in vivo.
A convenient synthesis of tert-butyl ethers under microwave condition

, p. 575 - 578 (2008/09/20)
Synthesis of tert-butyl ethers from various alcohols and substituted phenols can be achieved using tert-butyl bromide in the presence of basic lead carbonate as a catalyst under microwave irradiation in absence of solvent. The catalyst is easily recovered via filtration and reused up to three times without appreciable loss of activity.
Hydrolysis and Alcoholysis of Esters of o-Nitrobenzenesulfonic Acid
Sendega,Makitra,Pirig
, p. 1438 - 1446 (2007/10/03)
The rate of solvolysis of esters of o-nitrobenzenesulfonic acid with water and C1-C4 alcohols is satisfactorily described by two-parametric Hammett-Taft equation with predominating effect of the electronic factor σ*. The effect of the structure of the hydrocarbon rest in the sulfonic ester group does not fit to this relationship.
