  Allyl isothiocyanate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Allyl isothiocyanate is the chemical compound responsible for the pungent taste of mustard, horseradish and wasabi.
Allyl isothiocyanate serves the plant as a defense against herbivores; since it is harmful to the plant itself, it is stored in the harmless form of the glucosinolate, separate from the myrosinase enzyme.
Synthetic allyl isothiocyanate is used as an insecticide, as an animal repellant, to denature alcohol, and as a topical anesthetic.

 Allyl alcohol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Allyl alcohol can be obtained by hydrolysis of allyl chloride or by oxidation of propylene oxide with potassium alum at high temperature or by a dehydration reaction with propanol or by reaction of glycerol and formic acid.
Allyl alcohol is the smallest representative of the allylic alcohols.
Allyl alcohols can be prepared by allylic oxidation of allyl compounds by for instance selenium dioxide.

 U.S. Patent: 5118889 - Process for preparing allyl chloride - June 2, 1992
Allyl chloride is used commercially as the starting material in the manufacture of epichlorohydrin and glycerine.
Generally, in the separation zone, the pyrolysis effluent is cooled by a quench column prior to passage of the effluent to a scrubber to remove the acid generated during the pyrolysis reaction.
In a catalytic oxychlorination process, allyl chloride is prepared by the reaction of oxygen and hydrogen chloride with propylene in the presence of an oxychlorination catalyst at a temperature effective to produce allyl chloride.

 UNODC - Bulletin on Narcotics - 1960 Issue 4 - 001
Except for the screening allyl test, which may be carried out at any time of day, the allyl tests and the placebo tests must be administered on all occasions and to all patients in the same time relationship (2 hours) to the preceding dose of analgetic.
The nalorphine doses in some of the screening allyl tests and of subsequent routine allyl tests were reduced as an added element of safety, because in some instances the antagonist doses used in accordance with the original plan precipitated rather severe side reactions, such as marked anxiety, dysphoria, shakiness and others.
In the screening allyl tests, 3 mg of nalorphine were administered, with the exception of one subject who received three fractional doses of the antagonist (1, 3 and 5 mg) at intervals of 25 minutes.

 716. Allyl esters (allyl hexanoate, allyl heptanoate, and allyl isovalerate) (WHO Food Additives Series 28)
Hydrolysis of allyl isovalerate by liver homogenates in vitro proceeds at a slower rate than allyl esters of straight chain acids (Butterworth et al., 1975; Drake, 1975) and the hepatotoxicity of a number of allyl esters was correlated to the rate of hydrolysis to allyl alcohol (see also Short-term Studies).
The same metabolite was identified after dosing with allyl alcohol or acrolein and, by comparison of the percentage conversion after administration of these compounds or allyl esters of weak acids, it may be concluded that the esters were completely hydrolysed to allyl alcohol and that most of the alcohol was converted to acrolein (Kaye, 1973).
Allyl hexanoate Groups of 10 male and 10 female Osborne-Mendel rats were given allyl hexanoate by gavage in corn oil at dose levels of 0, 15, 65 and 100 mg/kg b.w.

The three most important cases to consider are the allyl cation, the allyl radical and the allyl anion.
In the allyl cation (formed by a hydride abstraction from propene) there are only two π electrons, and only the lowest-energy orbital is occupied.
The allyl system illustrates the advantages of using the MO description to properly account for the delocalized electrons.

 Production of the acrylates and methacrylates of oxyalkylated allyl alcohol - Patent 4618703
The alkylene oxide adducts of allyl alcohol of the present invention may be prepared by known methods, for example, by alkoxylation of allyl alcohol at elevated temperatures, generally between about 100.degree.
Liquid allyl alcohol in an amount of 2,554 parts, is charged to a stainless steel autoclave equipped with a stirrer, thermometer and valve to control introduction of propylene oxide, and is heated to approximately 95.degree.
In general, the acrylate of propoxylated allyl alcohol (2 moles of propylene oxide) is deemed superior to the acrylate of allyl alcohol in adhesion, scuff- and solvent-resistance, especially on steel substrates.

 Garlic and Cancer Prevention - National Cancer Institute
A host of studies provide compelling evidence that garlic and its organic allyl sulfur components are effective inhibitors of the cancer process.
Allyl sulfur compounds, which occur naturally in garlic and onions, make cells vulnerable to the stress created by products of cell division.
Thus, cancer cells are damaged by the presence of allyl sufur compounds to a much greater extent than normal cells.

 Alkylations of N-allyl-2-lithiopyrrolidines. Several analogies to reactions of N-methyl compounds and one surprise
To complete the reaction sequence, we used Wilkinson's catalyst to remove the allyl group[15] for selected examples, as shown in Scheme 5.
There are some limitations to this protocol: one is that the allyl group removal fails for N-allylpyrrolidines having a hydroxyl group in the 2-substituent (i.e.
The other is that removal of the allyl group for the compound with the hex-5'-enyl substituent is accompanied by some double bond migration in the side chain.

100g Pyrocatechol (0.9 mol), 100g allyl chloride (1.3 mol), 15g NaI (0.1 mol) and 106g Na (0.77 mol) was refluxed in anhydrous acetone to give a 75% yield of pyrocatechol monoallyl ether, bp 81°C/1.5 mmHg.
In ethanol the reaction only gave approximately 45%, as did it in propanol (without the NaI), and in propanol with the NaI added the yield was 68%.

 Ambion Amino Allyl aRNA Labeling Kit - Biocompare Product Review
Instead of directly incorporating florescently labeled dNTPs (Cy3 and Cy5-dNTPs) by reverse transcription, the Amino Allyl kit conjugates dNTPs to a reactive primary amine (amino allyl-dUTP) which is then incorporated into cDNA by reverse transcriptase.
The Ambion Amino Allyl cDNA Labeling Kit comes with all the reagents required for labeling cDNA, except for the fluorescent Cy3 and Cy5 (mono-reactive NHS-esters) dyes and ethanol.
Although we have not tried incorporating Cy-dNTPs directly, we have told by others that making the amino allyl cDNA (then coupling that to Cy dye) is a more effective and consistent way to produce fluorophore labeled cDNA.
