The intramolecular ene reactions of some unsaturated acyloins
The reaction of 3β-tosyloxy-5α-cholesta-5,6β-diol with potassium t butoxide
in t-butanol has been further investigated.
5β-Hydroxy-4,5-secocholest-3-en-6-one was synthesised. It was shown
to undergo an ene reaction in decalin in a sealed tube at 200°C to give
primarily 3β-methyl-A-nor-5β-cholestan-5-o1 -6-one and 6β-hydroxy-4(5-6α)
abeo-cholestan-5-one. These primary products were further modified under
the reaction conditions to give 3-methyl-B-nor-5β-cholest-2-en-4-one and
5β-cholestan-5-ol-6-one respectively.
The cyclohexane analogue, 3-methyl-3-(3-butenyl)-2-hydroxy-cyclohexanl-
one was synthesised. Heating under reflux in decalin gave 3β,7aβ-dimethyl-
3aβ-hydroxy-octahydro-4H-inden-4-one;5β,7aβ-dimethyl-3aβ-hydroxy-octahydro-
4H-inden-4-one and an unidentified minor product.
The synthesis of 5-(2-propenyl)-5β-cholestan-2-ol-3-one was partially
completed.
The epimeric 5-(2-propenyl)-5β-cholestan-2-ol-3-one. was synthesised.
The ene reaction was observed in refluxing toluene giving 2α,5-(1-methylethano)-5α-cholestan-2β-ol-3-one and 3α,5-(methyethano)-5α-cholestan-3β–ol-2-one.
The ketone analogue, 5-(2-propenyl )-5α-cholestan-3-one underwent an
ene reaction in decalin in a sealed tube at 250°C to give 2α,5-(1-methylethano)
-5α-cholestan-3-one

Flow-Through Filter to Remove Aluminum from Medical Solutions
A flow through filter assembly includes a trivalent and tetravalent metal ion capturing agent and a flow controller providing a predetermined flow rate which allows capture of the trivalent and tetravalent metal ions by the capturing agent
A Filtration System That Greatly Reduces Aluminum in Calcium Gluconate Injection, USP Used to Prepare Parenteral Nutrition Solutions
OBJECTIVE: The study objective was to reduce aluminum (Al) in Calcium Gluconate Injection, US Pharmacopeia (USP) used in the preparation of parenteral nutrition (PN) solutions.
METHODS: A flow-through filter containing an immobilized chelator that complexes Al from Calcium Gluconate Injection, USP as it flows through the filter was designed, refined by design modifications, and extensively tested. When a small-volume parenteral vial containing 100 mL of Calcium Gluconate Injection, USP is connected on the inlet side of the filter, and the outlet side is connected to an evacuated receiving vial, the filtered solution is drawn into the receiving vial. This constitutes a complete system to remove Al from Calcium Gluconate Injection, USP.
RESULTS: The extent of Al removal is flow rate dependent. At a flow rate of 1 mL/min approximately 85% of the Al was removed from calcium gluconate solution. PN solutions have been reported to deliver 15 to 23 mcg/kg/day Al to neonates. Given that Calcium Gluconate Injection, USP provides 85% of the Al in neonatal PN solutions, removal of 85% of the Al from this source was calculated to reduce Al delivered to most neonates to \u3c 5 mcg/kg/day.
CONCLUSIONS: A point-of-use, self-contained, single-use, disposable, Al-complexing filter has been created. It was calculated to reduce Al delivered in PN solutions by 72%, resulting in daily Al delivery below the level that results in Al accumulation associated with central nervous system and bone toxicity to all but the smallest (\u3c 1 kg) infants
