Reversible, room-temperature C—C bond activation of benzene by an isolable metal complex

2019

The activation of C-C bonds is of fundamental interest in the construction of complex molecules from petrochemical feedstocks. In the case of the archetypal aromatic hydrocarbon benzene, C-C cleavage is thermodynamically disfavored, and is brought about only by transient highly reactive species generated in situ. Here we show that the oxidative addition of the C-C bond in benzene by an isolated metal complex is not only possible, but occurs at room temperature and reversibly at a single aluminium center in [(NON)Al]- (where NON = 4,5-bis(2,6-diisopropylanilido)-2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-dimethylxanthene). Selectivity over C-H bond activation is achieved kinetically and allows for the generation…

Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of (E)-3-(benzylideneamino)-5-phenylthiazolidin-2-iminium bromide

2020

The central thiazolidine ring of the title salt, C16H16N3S+center dot Br-, adopts an envelope conformation, with the C atom bearing the phenyl ring as the flap atom. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked by N-H center dot center dot center dot Br hydrogen bonds, forming chains parallel to the b-axis direction. Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots indicate that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H center dot center dot center dot H (46.4%), C center dot center dot center dot H/H center dot center dot center dot C (18.6%) and H center dot center dot center dot Br/Br center dot center dot center dot H (17.5%) interactions.

Structural Investigation of Water/Lecithin/Cyclohexane Microemulsions by FT-IR Spectroscopy

1995

Abstract FT-IR spectra of water/lecithin/deuterated cyclohexane microemulsions as a function of water/lecithin molar ratio R ( R = [water]/[lecithin]) at various volume fractions ( O ) of the micellar phase have been recorded at 25°C. After elimination of the small spectral contributions due to deuterated cyclohexane and normalization, the shape of the C–H stretching band due to lecithin has been found dependent upon R and O whereas that of the O–H stretching band has been found dependent only upon R . The change in shape of the C–H band was interpreted in terms of a modification of the lecithin alkyl chain packing order. The analysis of the O–H band provides evidence that the hydroxylic gr…

Enhancing Selectivity In Photocatalytic Formation Of P-Anisaldehyde In Aqueous Suspension Under Solar Light Irradiation Via Tio2 N-Doping

2012

The photocatalytic partial oxidation of 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol to the corresponding aldehyde (p-anisaldehyde) was performed under simulated solar irradiation by using home prepared N-doped TiO2 catalysts. The photocatalysts were prepared by a sol–gel method, using TiCl4 as TiO2 precursor and NH4Cl, urea or NH4OH as N-doping sources. A commercial TiO2 (Degussa P25) was also used for comparison aims. The prepared catalysts were characterized by BET specific surface area, XRD, ESEM and UV-vis spectroscopy. The reactivity results show that (i) the doped catalysts are predominantly amorphous, and they show selectivity values far higher than those of the corresponding undoped ones and of well cr…

Structural characterization of U(VI) surface complexes on kaolinite in the presence of humic acid using EXAFS spectroscopy.

2007

To determine the influence of humic acid (HA), pH, and presence of atmospheric CO2 on the sorption of U(VI) onto kaolinite, the structure of the surface complexes was studied by U L III-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. The best fits to the experimental EXAFS data were obtained by including two uranium coordination shells with two axial (O ax) and five equatorial (O eq) oxygen atoms at 1.77+/-0.02 and 2.34+/-0.02 A, respectively, and two coordination shells with one Al/Si atom each at 3.1 and 3.3 A. As in the case of the binary system U(VI)-kaolinite, uranium forms inner-sphere surface complexes by edge sharing with aluminum octahedra and/or silicon tetrahe…

Absolutes Molekulargewicht der nativen Cellulose der Alge Valonia

1976

Der Polymerisationsgrad der nativen Cellulose der Alge Valonia wurde bei dem unfraktionierten Material zu Pw≈26500 und bei dem durch Fallungsfraktionierung isolierten hochmolekularen Anteil der Molekulargewichtsverteilung zu Pw≈44000 ermittelt. Diese letzte Grose legt die Dimension fest, die die synthetisierende Matrize geometrisch erfullen mus. Sie durfte um einen Faktor von ca. 3 groser sein als die bei der Baumwollcellulose mit Pw≈14000. In Verbindung mit anderen Untersuchungen wird eine Biosynthese des Cellulosemolekuls als sehr wahrscheinlich angesehen, die direkt auf einer flachenformigen Matrize zu einer gefalteten Kette fuhrt. Da die thermodynamisch kontrollierte Faltungslange zu me…

Immobilisation of humic substances

2002

Attempts were made to immobilise humic substances (HS) by grafting them onto different carriers (styrene-divinylbenzene copolymers, cellulose and silica) as well as by their crosslinking with formaldehyde. Reaction with Merrifield resin was used for the immobilisation of HS, coupling by means of water-soluble carbodiimides to carriers containing amino-groups. Crosslinking of HS with formaldehyde (also in presence of other substances able to enter polycondensation reactions with formaldehyde) was shown to be an efficient method for their insolubilisation. Properties of the obtained immobilised HS were studied, including their potential use as sorbents for several metal ions and organic subst…

Kinetik und Molekulargewichtsverteilung eines anionischen Polymerisationsprozesses mit momentanem Start bei simultanem Monomerabbruch

1973

Die Kinetik und die Molekulargewichtsverteilung wird fur einen anionischen Polymerisationsprozes mit einem momentanen Startschritt und mit simultanem Monomerabbruch berechnet. Ein derartiger Polymerisationsablauf ist bei der anionischen Polymerisation von Methylmethacrylat in polaren Losungsmitteln zu erwarten. — Die Molekulargewichtsverteilung geht mit steigendem Monomerabbruch in eine SCHULZ-FLORY-Verteilung uber. The kinetics and the molecular weight distribution are calculated for an anionic polymerization with rapid initiation and simultaneous deactivation by the monomer. Such a process is to be expected for the anionic polymerization of methylmethacrylate in polar solvents. — The mole…

Monomere und polymere Succinimidoester von ω-Methacryloylaminosäuren, ihre Darstellung und ihre Reaktion mit Aminen

1978

Mit der in dieser Arbeit beschriebenen Synthese von ω-Methacryloylaminosaure-succinimidoestern (1) wurden Monomere erhalten, die leicht mit Methacrylamid copolymerisiert werden konnten. Die entstandenen Copolymeren, die als Trager fur Enzyme und Pharmaka verwendet werden konnen, tragen die selektiv mit Aminen reagierende Succinimidoester-Gruppe an einem “Spacerarm”. Die Reaktionsfahigkeit der neuen Monomeren gegenuber verschiedenen Aminen wurde untersucht. The synthesis of succinimido esters of ω-methacryloylaminocarboxylic acids affords monomers which can easily be copolymerized with methacrylamide. The resulting copolymers have a succinimido ester group fixed on a “spacer arm”, which reac…
