TL;DR: The most predominant species of lamb liver phosphatidylinositol is the monoenoic followed by the tetraenoic (17%).
Abstract: 1. Two methods for the fractionation of phosphatidylinositol into molecular species were developed. In addition to preserving the fatty acid moiety of the molecule, the first method preserves the phosphorus, and the second preserves both the phosphorus and inositol ring. 2. In the first method, phosphatidylinositol was oxidized with periodate and the products reacted with diazomethane. I.r. examination showed that the main product was identical with dimethylphosphatidic acid. Fractionation to molecular species was carried out on thin layers impregnated with silver nitrate. The fatty acid composition of the species was determined by gas-liquid chromatography, and their distribution in lamb liver phosphatidylinositol was studied by a method using [(3)H]methanol. 3. In the second method, phosphatidylinositol was acetylated under mild reaction conditions. The major product was the triacetylated derivative of this phospholipid. This was reacted with diazomethane and the methylated-triacetylated phosphatidylinositol was fractionated into molecular species on silver nitrate-impregnated thin layers. Solvent mixtures containing acetone and distilled chloroform were found most suitable for this purpose. The fatty acid composition of the molecular species was determined by g.l.c., and their distribution in lamb liver phosphatidylinositol was studied by a method using [1-(14)C]acetic anhydride during the acetylation reaction. 4. Results from both methods agree fairly well. The most predominant species of lamb liver phosphatidylinositol is the monoenoic (60%) followed by the tetraenoic (17%). The di- and tri-enoic species existed as minor components.

TL;DR: In this article, a new compound was synthesized by methylation of 2,3,3',4,4'-penta-O-acetylsucrose with diazomethane and boron trifluoride with subsequent deacetylation.
Abstract: 1',6,6'-Tri-O-methylsucrose, a new compound, has been synthesized by methylation of 2,3,3',4,4'-penta-O-acetylsucrose with diazomethane and boron trifluoride with subsequent deacetylation. 2,3,3',4,4'-Penta-O-methylsucrose has been obtained in improved yield from the tri-O-trityl derivative by reduction with lithium in liquid ammonia. A major product of the incomplete methylation of 11,6,6'-tri-O-tritylsucrose was the 2,3,3',4'-tetra-O-methyl derivative, and after reductive detritylation 2,3,3',4'-tetra-O-methylsucrose, a new compound, was isolated and identified by examination of its hydrolysis products.

TL;DR: In this article, a treatment of 5-arylideneisorhodanines with GRIGNARD reagents, effects addition of the reagent to the double bound of the lateral chain to yield products, proved to have structure 2.
Abstract: Treatment of 5-arylideneisorhodanines 1 with GRIGNARD reagents, effects addition of the reagent to the double bound of the lateral chain to yield products, proved to have structure 2. The thiono group in 1 and 2 condenses with aniline to yield the corresponding 5-substituted-4-phenylimino-2-thiazolidinones 3 and 4. Alkylation of 1 and 2 with alkyl halides or with ethereal diazomethane results in the formation of the S-alkyl derivatives 5 and 6, respectively.

TL;DR: In this article, two parallel, first-order processes were used to decompose Δ3-1,3,4-Oxadiazolin-2-ones in moderate temperatures, either neat or in solution.
Abstract: Δ3-1,3,4-Oxadiazolin-2-ones are decomposed at moderate temperatures, either neat or in solution, by two parallel, first-order processes. One of these results in the formation of the appropriate diazomethane and carbon dioxide while the other leads to ketone, nitrogen, and carbon monoxide. Rates of these competing processes are reported along with some solvent effects and substituent effects on the product ratios.

Abstract: The arylhydrazones of ethyl α-oxo-cyanoacetate 1a–e and the α-arylhydrazones of β-phenyl-α,β-diketopropionitrile 2a–e, react with GRIGNARD reagents at room temperature to yield the cyanocarbinols 3a–h. On the other hand, 1 and 2 react with phenylmagnesium bromide in refluxing ether-benzene mixture, to yield the imino derivatives 4a–d. 3a–e are dehydrated by hot acetic acid to yield compounds 5a–d. Similar treatment of 41–d affords the α-arylazo-β-phenylchalcones 6a–d which react with hydroxylamine to yield isoxazoline derivatives 7a–d. Treatment of 1b, d with ethereal diazomethane results in the formation of the N-methylarylhydrazones 8a, b. The arylhydrazono-malodinitriles 9 react with GRIGNARD reagents to yield the imino derivatives 10.

TL;DR: In this article, the S2 symmetry of 5 was established by the reaction of Quinones and α-Dicarbonyl Compounds with Diazoalkanes, which was shown to be the dehydrogenation product 5 of 2.
Abstract: p-Benzochinon liefert mit atherischer Diazomethanlosung, wie zuerst v. Pechmann fand, sofort ein beim Abfiltrieren meistens verpuffendes Addukt 2 (oder 4), das sich im Reaktionsgemisch langsam, mit Alkali rascher in ein schwerlosliches Produkt umwandelte, welches er fur ein Isomeres hielt. Es wird nun gezeigt, das es ein Dehydrierungsprodukt (5) des Addukts 2 ist. Zugabe von Dehydrierungsmittel erhoht die Ausbeute an 5 erheblich. 5 entsteht auch uber zersetzliche Addukte hinweg aus Mono-, am besten aus 2.5-Dihalogen-benzochinonen 7 mit Diazomethan, was die S2-Symmetrie fur 5 beweist. Diazoathan reagiert analog; Diazoessigester liefert den Diester 14, der durch Hydrolyse und Decarboxylierung ebenfalls 5 ergibt. Reactions of Quinones and α-Dicarbonyl Compounds with Diazoalkanes, XX On the Structure of the Products Obtained by H. v. Pechmann from the Reaction of Diazoalkanes with p-Benzoquinone and of some Derivatives p-Benzoquinone reacts with diazomethane to form the instable adduct 2 (or 4) first obtained by v. Pechmann. Upon standing in the reaction mixture 2 is slowly converted via a redox process into a very stable product, which is shown to be the dehydrogenation product 5 of 2. The conversion is catalyzed by alkali, and the addition of a dehydrogenating agent greatly improves the yield. 5 is also formed by the reaction of mono- or better 2.5-dihaloquinones 7 with diazomethane, a route which establishes the S2 symmetry of 5. Diazoethane shows analogous behavior towards 1 and 7. Diazoacetic ester gives the diester 14, which by hydrolysis and decarboxylation also affords 5.

TL;DR: In this article, a 3-necked flask equipped with a stirrer and a thermometer is used to add a few mg of d -mannose to 100 ml of acetic anhydride followed by 8 drops of 70% perchloric acid.
Abstract: Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the methylation of diazomethane–boron trifluoride etherate. The use of diazomethane–boron trifluoride etherate reagent to methylate partially acylated sugars gives the methyl ethers of aldoses in yields between 70% and 90% and without acyl migration. The procedure is exemplified by the preparation of 2-O-methyl- d -mannose. methylating agents (3-5), frequently gives rise to acyl migration. In a 3-necked flask equipped with a stirrer and a thermometer, a few mg of d -mannose is added to 100 ml of acetic anhydride followed by 8 drops of 70% perchloric acid. To this yellow solution, 26.4 g of d -mannose is added portion-wise with continuous stirring during 20 min, while the temperature is kept at 40°–45°. Lastly, the solution is evaporated to dryness, and the residue (9.52 g) is crystallized and recrystallized from anhydrous ether.

Abstract: In a continuation of our previous papers concerning the syntheses with 5-nitro-2-furonitrile, 2-(5-nitro-2-furyl)vinyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles and -1,2,3-triazoles were prepared from 3-(5-nitro-2-furyl)acrylonitrile (I). When I was treated with diazomethane in ether, 4-[2-(5-nitro-2-furyl)vinyl]-1,2,3-triazole (II) was obtained. II gave N-acetyl (IIa) and N-morpholinomethyl (IIb) compounds when treated with acetic anhydride and when the Mannich reaction was utilized respectively. 3-(5-Nitro-2-furyl)acrylamide oxime (III) was prepared by the usual method from I and hydroxylamine. The treatment of III with benzaldehyde and acid anhydrides or chlorides afforded 3-[2-(5-nitro-2-furyl)vinyl]-5-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazoline (IV) and O-acyl-3-(5-nitro-2-furyl)acrylamide oximes (IIIa—IIIe) respectively. The O-acyl-amide oximes were found to cyclize to 3-[2-(5-nitro-2-furyl)vinyl]-5-alkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole (V–VII) in their thermal analyses.
