Abstract
1 H N.m.r. and gas chromatographic analysis of the reactants and products show that the reaction of N-benzyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide (NBDN), an analogue of NADH, with pyridine-2-carbaldehyde does not pass through a radical intermediate during either a thermal or a photolytic reaction; photolysis led to the removal of NBDN but not to the production of the reduced substrate and radicals detected with e.s.r. spectroscopy were shown to be artifacts.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
