The Chlorination of Cyclooctadiene with Cupric Chloride in Acetonitrile Containing Lithium Chloride

Electrolytic Regeneration of Acid Cupric Chloride

Effects of lithium chloride

The effects of lithium, an inhibitor of the recycling of inositol in the phosphatidylinositol cycle, on rabbit blastocyst growth and metabolism of phosphoinositides were investigated. Day 2 rabbit morulae were first cultured for 2 days in basic culture medium and then transferred to medium containing myo-[2H]inositol for culture for a further 3 days. At the end of culture, the resulting blastoc...

Lithium diisopropylamide-mediated ortholithiations: lithium chloride catalysis.

Ortholithiations of a range of arenes mediated by lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) in THF at -78 degrees C reveal substantial accelerations by as little as 0.5 mol % of LiCl (relative to LDA). Substrate dependencies suggest a specific range of reactivity within which the LiCl catalysis is optimal. Standard protocols with unpurified commercial samples of n-butyllithium to prepare LDA or commercial...

Protective effects of manganese(II) chloride on hyaluronan degradation by oxidative system ascorbate plus cupric chloride

The degradation of several high-molar-mass hyaluronan samples was investigated in the presence of ascorbic acid itself and further by an oxidative system composed of ascorbic acid plus transition metal ions, i.e. Fe(II) or Cu(II) ions. The latter oxidative system imitates conditions in a joint synovial fluid during early phase of acute joint inflammation and can be used as a model for monitorin...
