  • Ruthenium Tetroxide (Ruo4) Oxidation of N-Alkyllactams Proceeded Regioselectively Depend- Ing on the Size of Lactam Ring, Except for the Seven-Membered Ring
    No. 1 357 Chem. Pharm. Bull. 35(1) 357-363 (1987) Ruthenium Tetroxide Oxidation of N-Alkyllactams SHIGEYUKIYOSHIFUJI,* YUKIMI ARAKAWA, and YOSHIHIRONITTA Schoolof Pharmacy,Hokuriku University,Kanagawa-machi, Kanazawa920-11, Japan (ReceivedJuly 31, 1986) Ruthenium tetroxide (RuO4) oxidation of N-alkyllactams proceeded regioselectively depend- ing on the size of lactam ring, except for the seven-membered ring. Four- and eight-membered N- methyl- and N-ethyllactams were oxidized at the exocyclic ƒ¿-carbon adjacent to nitrogen to produce the N-acyllactams and NH-lactams, while five- and six-membered lactams underwent endocyclic oxidation to yield the cyclic imides. Oxidation of seven-membered lactams yielded a mixture of products arising from both exocyclic and endocyclic oxidations. These regioselectivities were confirmed in the oxidation of substrates having a tertiary carbon at the oxidation position. Keywords•\oxidation; ruthenium tetroxide oxidation; regioselective oxidation; hydroxyl- ation; imide synthesis; N-alkyllactam; N-acyllactam; imide; ruthenium tetroxide; two-phase method Ruthenium tetroxide (RuO4) is a good reagent for the conversion of N-acylated cyclic amines to the corresponding lactams,1) by oxidation of one of two carbons adjacent to nitrogen. As a common feature of the RuO4 oxidation in this conversion (la to 2 in Chart 1) and in the transformation of cyclic ethers into the corresponding lactones,2) it has been considered that RuO4 predominantly oxidizes a secondary carbon rather than a tertiary one. However, as reported previously,3) we obtained an opposite result in the RuO4 oxidation of some 1-azabicycloalkan-2-ones, such as quinolizidin-4-one (1b), which gave the hydroxylated products, such as 3, resulting from the oxidation of the tertiary carbon.

Microbial activity in mixed wastes can have an appreciable effect on the dissolution or precipitation of toxic metals and radionuclides. Fundamental information on microbial dissolution and stabilization (immobilization) of toxic metals and radionuclides, in particular actinides and fission products, in nuclear wastes under various microbial process conditions, e.g., aerobic, denitrifying, iron-reducing, fermentative, sulfate-reducing, and methanogenic conditions is very limited. Microbial transformations of typical waste components such as metal oxides, metal coprecipitates, naturally occurring minerals, and metal organic complexes are reviewed.

However, this is dependent in part on dimensional characteristics. Thus, while massive metal forms have low chemical reactivity, fi nely-divided metal powders with high surface area show greater reactivity. • Simple binary compounds exist for each of the PGMs. They also form a vast array of complex coordination compounds in which the central metal atom is bound to a variety of ligands by coordinate bonding, including halides, sulphur, amines, and other atoms and groups. • This unique coordination chemistry has made PGM compounds of great industrial value, but also can have implications for the health of workers exposed to certain of these compounds due to the linkages with biological behaviour and toxicity (see Chapter 6). • The complex halogenated platinum compounds (CHPS) are among those which are industrially and toxicologically important.

  • Ruthenium Tetroxide and Perruthenate Chemistry. Recent Advances and Related Transformations Mediated by Other Transition Metal Oxo-Species

Recent Advances and Related Transformations Mediated by Other Transition Metal Oxo-species Vincenzo Piccialli Dipartimento di Scienze Chimiche, Università degli Studi di Napoli ―Federico II‖, Via Cintia 4, 80126, Napoli, Italy; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-081-674111; Fax: +39-081-674393 Received: 24 February 2014; in revised form: 14 May 2014 / Accepted: 16 May 2014 / Published: 21 May 2014 Abstract: In the last years ruthenium tetroxide is increasingly being used in organic synthesis. Thanks to the fine tuning of the reaction conditions, including pH control of the medium and the use of a wider range of co-oxidants, this species has proven to be a reagent able to catalyse useful synthetic transformations which are either a valuable alternative to established methods or even, in some cases, the method of choice. Protocols for oxidation of hydrocarbons, oxidative cleavage of C–C double bonds, even stopping the process at the aldehyde stage, oxidative cleavage of terminal and internal alkynes, oxidation of alcohols to carboxylic acids, dihydroxylation of alkenes, oxidative degradation of phenyl and other heteroaromatic nuclei, oxidative cyclization of dienes, have now reached a good level of improvement and are more and more included into complex synthetic sequences. The perruthenate ion is a ruthenium (VII) oxo-species. Since its introduction in the mid-eighties, tetrapropylammonium perruthenate (TPAP) has reached a great popularity among organic chemists and it is mostly employed in catalytic amounts in conjunction with N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO) for the mild oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to carbonyl compounds.

  • Comparative Effect of Osmium Tetroxide and Ruthenium Tetroxide on Penicillium Sp. Hyphae and Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Fungal
    Biomédica 2003;23:225-31 USE OF OsO4 AND RuO4 FOR FUNGAL CELL WALL ULTRASTRUCTURE TECHNICAL NOTE Comparative effect of osmium tetroxide and ruthenium tetroxide on Penicillium sp. hyphae and Saccharomyces cerevisiae fungal cell wall ultrastructure Orlando Torres-Fernández 1, Nelly Ordóñez 2 1 Laboratorio de Microscopía Electrónica, Instituto Nacional de Salud, Bogotá, D.C., Colombia. 2 Laboratorio de Patología, Instituto Nacional de Salud, Bogotá, D.C., Colombia. The fungal cell wall viewed through the electron microscope appears transparent when fixed by the conventional osmium tetroxide method. However, ruthenium tetroxide post-fixing has revealed new details in the ultrastructure of Penicillium sp. hyphae and Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast. Most significant was the demonstration of two or three opaque diverse electron dense layers on the cell wall of each species. Two additional features were detected. Penicillium septa presented a three-layered appearance and budding S. cerevisiae yeast cell walls showed inner filiform cell wall protrusions into the cytoplasm. The combined use of osmium tetroxide and ruthenium tetroxide is recommended for post-fixing in electron microscopy studies of fungi. Key words: fungal cell wall, fungal ultrastructure, osmium tetroxide, ruthenium tetroxide, Penicillium sp., Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

La posfijación con tetróxido de rutenio reveló nuevos detalles ultraestructurales en hifas de Penicillium sp. y en levaduras de Saccharomyces cerevisiae. El aspecto más destacado fue la modificación en la transparencia de la pared celular, característica de la fijación con tetróxido de osmio.
