The methylene group in diphenylmethane is mildly acidic with a pK a of 32.2, and so can be deprotonated with sodium amide. [3] (C 6 H 5) 2 CH 2 + NaNH 2 − → (C 6 H 5) 2 CHNa + NH 3. The resulting carbanion can be alkylated. For example, treatment with n-bromobutane produces 1,1-diphenylpentane in 92% yield. [4]

Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) is an aromatic diisocyanate. Three isomers are common, varying by the positions of the isocyanate groups around the rings: 2,2′-MDI, 2,4′-MDI, and 4,4′-MDI. The 4,4′ isomer is most widely used, and is also known as 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate. [3] This isomer is also known as Pure MDI.
Metals have been used in treatments since ancient times. The Ebers Papyrus from 1500BC is the first written account of the use of metals for treatment and describes the use of Copper to reduce inflammation and the use of iron to treat anemia.
