A glycine/(NH4)2SO4 mixture was isolated by treatment of glyoxylic acid with FeSO4 and aqNH3 in H2O. The yields of glycine were estimated by 1H NMR. Pyruvic acid was not reduced to alanine under these conditions. This method for forming glycine might have occurred prebiotically alongside the Urey-Miller arc discharge method for making amino acids because glyoxylic acid is formed by arc discharge through a N2/CO2 atmosphere and both NH3 and Fe(II) occurred in the earth's early oceans. The carboxylic acid directs the reduction of 2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid to give 2-amino-4-nitrobenzoic acid.
Optical element and compounds used in its manufacture

An optical frequency conversion element has a wave-guiding layer which consists of a χ(2) -active ferroelectric liquid crystal. The monomeric or polymeric liquid crystal material has a periodic structure which permits the so-called quasi phase matching of a guided laser beam. The period length of the structure is equal to twice the coherence length lc =?/Δβ of the material, whereby Δβ=βo (2ω)-2βo (ω), with ω=angular frequency of the fundamental wave, 0=zero-order mode and β=propagation constant of the mode.

Transformation processes of nitroaromatic compounds (NAC) lead to polar and highly hydrophilic metabolites. For the unequivocal identification of proposed metabolites reference substances are needed. Since most of them are not commercially available, their synthesis was done in our group. In many cases no satisfying synthesis schemes were found in the literature. In this communication, we therefore describe the preparation, structural elucidation and separation of 17 compounds. Many of the newly synthesized analytes were found in various water samples from a former ammunition plant.
