A catalytic asymmetric bromocyclization of trisubstituted olefinic amides that uses a C(2)-symmetric mannitol-derived cyclic selenium catalyst and a stoichiometric amount of N-bromophthalimide is reported. The resulting enantioenriched pyrrolidine products, which contain two stereogenic centers, can undergo rearrangement to yield 2,3-disubstituted

Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra of phthalimide and N-bromophthalimide have been recorded in the range of 4000-400 cm-1. With the hope of providing more and effective information on the fundamental vibrations, a normal coordinate analysis has been performed on phthalimide

Two methods are proposed for the determination of isoniazid in pure form or in tablets. In the first method chlorpromazine hydrochloride, when treated with 2-iodoxybenzoic acid as an oxidant in 50% w/v o-phosphoric acid solution, is oxidized to chlorpromazine free

We report the site-selective bromination of vancomycin to produce, with substantial efficiency, previously unknown monobromovancomycins, a dibromovancomycin, and a tribromovancomycin. We document the inherent reactivity of native vancomycin toward N-bromophthalimide. We then demonstrate significant rate acceleration and perturbation of the
