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

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
