Factors Affecting the Catalytic Hydrogenation of D-Glucose Part II. Effect of Pressure and Temperature

The effect of different degrees of pressure and temperature on the rate of the catalytic hydrogenation of glucose has been investigated.     

Factors Affecting the Catalytic Hydrogenation of D-Glucose. Part IV. Effect of Solvent-Catalyst Concentration at High Pressure,Temperature and pH 8 and the Re-use of Catalyst

In ethanolic solution the rate of hydrogenation of glucose was highly increased. When the hydrogenation was carried out in aqueous solution at pH 8, 170 °C and 60 at pressure the time required for complete hydrogenation decreased from 6 to 1 h. The re-use of catalyst was also investigated.     

Reactivity of the exocyclic double bond in 4-arylidene-2-phenyl-2-imidazolin-5-ones toward organomagnesium compounds. II

4-Arylidene-2-phenyl-2-imidazolin-5-ones 1 react with Grignard reagents in a boiling ether-benzene mixture to yield 4-diarylmethyl derivatives 2 together with their oxidation products 3 and 4 . The exocyclic double bond in 5 also undergoes addition reaction with the same reagents to yield 4-triarylmethyl derivatives 6 . Alkylation of 2 affords the 4-alkylimidazolones 7 and 8 .
