these articles would be interesting because they describe aminating 2-bromopropanes using CuO and NH3
the copper would complex the ammonia and form an intermediate with the 2-bromopropane that would lower the activation energy and block side reactions,
resulting in less side products and possibly higher overall yeilds for amphetamines from allylbenzenes to make 9 out of the 10 possible essential amphetamines.
according to antibody, the best of which would be 2,5-dmmda which he describes as sublime, euphoric, and pleasantly hallucinogenic (not overwhelmingly so)
from parsely apiol a non-controlled essential oil.

Amino Acids
Vol.27(2) 2004 pp.183-186
DOI: 10.1007/s00726-004-0109-1

Abstract
In the present work various free amino acids, including tryptophan and tyrosine, were effectively N-phthaloylated under reduced pressure and at lower temperature. Moreover, under these conditions, the presence of phthalic acid in phthalic anhydride did not hinder the N-phthaloylation of amino acids. This simple process is economic, environmentally friendly, and suitable for large-scale production.



Efficient Alternative for the Reduction of N-trichloroacetyl groups in Synthetic Chondroitin Oligosaccharide Intermediates
Tet. Let.
Vol.51(14) 2010 pp.1867-1869
DOI: 10.1016/j.tetlet.2010.02.005

Abstract
An efficient alternative for the reduction of N-trichloroacetyl groups in chondroitin oligosaccharides is reported. It involves the use of Zn–Cu couple in acetic acid, and was successfully applied to a large panel of synthetic intermediates useful for the preparation of chondroitin oligomers, a class of natural products with numerous relevant biological functions.



Trichloroacetyl and trifluoroacetyl as N-blocking groups in nucleoside synthesis with 2-amino sugars

If we can utilize the di- and trichloro amino acids instead of the trifluoroamino acids in the FC Acylation of the various benzene derivatives, then life just got incredibly simple. The required PCl5 can be produced by burning (I suspect autoignition) PH3 in a Cl atmosphere (giving PCl5 & HCl). The only questions that would remain - the use of N-(trichloroacetyl)-alaninoyl/glycinoyl chloride to give the relevant N-(trichloroacetyl)-2-aminopropiophenone/N-(trichloroacetyl)-2-aminoacetophenone derivative. Then the protecting group & the ketone are reduced by a number of means, I suspect experimentation will be required. We also have to determine whether the reaction between citric acid & *OCl really is 1,1,1,3,3-pentachloroacetone, which upon further chlorination gives 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexachloroacetone, which reacts with amino acids to give N-(trichloroacetyl)- derivatives (and chloroform). It may even be that the pentachloroacetone would suffice, if the N-(dichloroacetyl)- derivatives also undergo FC Acylation.

I kept these separate for a reason - the orgsyn procedure for the production of hydrocinnamic acid - refers to a procedure using HI @ reflux to reduce the double-bond. As that would also cleave the ether, giving a-methylhydrocaffeic acid for instance that would be a handy project.

Vol.75(8.) 1953 pp.1891-1895
DOI: 10.1021/ja01104a034

Abstract

An extensive study of cyclizations with polyphosphoric acid (PPA) has been made and this acid has been found to be the reagent of choice in the synthesis of various 1-indanones, 1-tetralones, benzosuber-5-ones and anthraquinones from aryl-aliphatic and aroyl-aromatic acids. It has been further applied adventageously to the preparation of various indenes from aryl-substituted aliphatic ketones. Improved and detailed experimental conditions and techniques required for PPA cyclizations have been described.

Expedient Synthesis of [18F]-Labeled a-Trifluoromethyl ketones

Prakash,G;Alauddin,Mian;Hu,Jinbo;Conti,Peter;Olah,George
J. Lab. Cmpds. & RadioPharm.
Vol.46(11) 2003 pp.1087-1092
DOI: 10.1002/jlcr.741

Abstract

Several [18F]-labeled ?-trifluoromethyl ketones have been synthesized. Reactions of 2,2-difluoro-1-aryl-1-trimethylsiloxyethenes (1a–d) with [18F]-F2 at low temperature produced [18F]-labeled ?-trifluoromethyl ketones (2a–d). Radio-labeled products were isolated by purification with column chromatography in 22–28% yields, decay corrected (d.c.) in three runs per compound. Radiochemical purity was >99% with specific activities 15–20 GBq/mmol at the end of synthesis (EOS). The synthesis time was 35–40 min from the end of bombardment (EOB). This one-step simple method is highly useful for the radiochemical synthesis of potential biologically active [18F]-labeled ?-trifluoromethyl ketones for PET imaging.

Russ. Chem. Bull.
Vol.19(4) 1970 pp.735-739
DOI: 10.1007/BF00867224

Abstract

1. The electrolysis of solutions of inorganic fluorides in anhydrous organic solvents was investigated. Electrochemical fluorination forming a mixture of fluprohydrocarbons takes place in acetic and trifluoro-acetic acids.
2. On the basis of an analysis of the polarization measurements for a number of metals in the system CH3COOH-KF, a scheme of the process of electrochemical fluorination of acetic acid was proposed.
