This compound, when dissolved in carbon tetrachloride, is used in Mason et al.'s technique to isolate disaturated phos-phatidyl-choline from broncho-alveolar lavage samples.
This compound, when dissolved in carbon tetrachloride, is used in Mason et al.'s technique to isolate disaturated phos-phatidyl-choline from broncho-alveolar lavage samples. This compound's bipyridine derivative reacts preferentially with thymine when exposed to DNA and can be used to probe tryptophan residues in proteins. When complexed with meth-enamine, this compound attains a slight polarity and is a safer alternative for staining lipid organelles in tissue fixation. Sodium per-iodate regenerates this compound in a reaction in which this compound cleaves alkenes in a manner similar to ozonolysis. In another reaction using this compound, the stereochemistry is controlled by chiral quinine ligands and uses this compound, regenerated by NMO, to convert alkenes into 1,2 diols. This compound is found in the Lemieux-Johnson reagent, and is used in the Upjohn and Sharpless dihydroxylation reactions. For 10 points, name this reagent that contains the densest element in a +8 oxidation state.
