Experimental and Theoretical Studies of Nonclassical d 0 Cyclopentadienyl Polyhydride Complexes of Molybdenum and Tungsten

1998

Low-temperature protonation of compounds Cp{sup *}MH{sub 5}(PMe{sub 3}) (M = Mo, 1; W, 2) by HBF{sub 4}{center_dot}Et{sub 2}O in CD{sub 2}Cl{sub 2} or CDFCl{sub 2} affords the thermally unstable hexahydride derivatives [Cp{sup *}MH{sub 6}(PMe{sub 3})]{sup +} (M = Mo, 3; W, 4). The corresponding protonation of 1- and 2-d{sup 5} affords 3- and 4-d{sup 5}, respectively. The {Delta}{delta} on going from H{sub 6} to HD{sub 5} is small for both compounds, but positive for 3 and negative for 4, and no isotopic perturbation of resonance (IPR) is observed. The T{sub 1min} at 400 MHz for [Cp{sup *}MH{sub 6}(PMe{sub 3})]{sup +} apparently doubles on going from Mo to W (52 ms for 3 and approximately 10…

The reaction kinetics for the group transfer polymerization (GTP) of tert-butyl methacrylate (TBMA) using a silyl ketene acetal initiator and a nucleophilic catalyst are investigated. The reaction is shown to be of first order in both monomer and catalyst concentrations. The “livingness” of this system appears to be influenced by the reaction temperature. At temperatures above −20°C, deactivation is observed, with its severity increasing with increasing temperature. This deactivation is attributed to a depletion of catalyst by side reactions. It was demonstrated that reactivation is made possible by the addition of more catalyst. This result is in contrast to the anionic polymerization of T…

A theoreticalab initiostudy on the H2NO + O3reaction

2003

The deviation of the NH2 pseudo-first-order decay Arrhenius plots of the NH2 + O3 reaction at high ozone pressures measured by experimentalists, has been attributed to the regeneration of NH2 radicals due to the subsequent reactions of the products of this reaction with ozone. Although these products have not yet been characterized experimentally, the radical H2NO has been postulated, because it can regenerate NH2 radicals through the reactions: H2NO + O3 NH2 + O2 and H2NO + O3 HNO + OH + O2. With the purpose of providing a reasonable explanation from a theoretical point of view to the kinetic observed behaviour of the NH2 + O3 system, we have carried ab initio electronic structure calculat…

Die autoxydation von linolsäuremethylesterhydroperoxyd. Über die autoxydation ungesättigter verbindungen. XIII. Mitteilung

1961

Linolsauremethylesterhydroperoxyd wurde mit Hilfe der O'KEEFFE-Verteilung aus autoxydiertem Linolsauremethylester isoliert. Die Autoxydation dieses Hydroperoxydes verlauft rascher als die des Linolsaureesters. Die Reaktion verlaft aber nicht autokatalytisch und ist nach Aufnahme von 1 Mol Sauerstoff pro Mol Hydroperoxyd praktisch beendet; die Hydroperoxydgruppen bleiben dabei zum grosten Teil erhalten, die konjugierten Doppelbindungen verschwinden. Die Aktivierungsenergie dieser Reaktion ist um 3 kcal/Mol kleiner als die der Autoxydation des Linolsauremethylesters. Es wird ein Mechanismus vorgeschlagen, bei dem das Linolsauremethylesterhydroperoxyd hauptsachlich in biomolekularer Startreakt…

Filmability and properties of compatibilized PA6/LDPE blends

2005

Blends of low density polyethylene (LDPE) and polyamide 6 (PA6), compatibilized with an ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer (EAA), either alone or combined with a low molar mass bis-oxazoline compound (PBO), have been processed in film blowing operations and the properties of the films have been investigated. Without of compatibilization, the filmability of the blend was very poor and no significant specimen was collected. As a result of the reactive compatibilization, the blends with EAA and even more with the EAA-PBO, were processed successfully in film blowing. The films of the quaternary blends were shown to possess satisfactory mechanical properties as a result of fine and stable morpholog…

Molecular Basis of the Chemiluminescence Mechanism of Luminol

2019

Light emission from luminol is probably one of the most popular chemiluminescence reactions due to its use in forensic science, and has recently displayed promising applications for the treatment of cancer in deep tissues. The mechanism is, however, very complex and distinct possibilities have been proposed. By efficiently combining DFT and CASPT2 methodologies, the chemiluminescence mechanism has been studied in three steps: 1)luminol oxygenation to generate the chemiluminophore, 2)a chemiexcitation step, and 3)generation of the light emitter. The findings demonstrate that the luminol double-deprotonated dianion activates molecular oxygen, diazaquinone is not formed, and the chemiluminopho…

Quantitative Raman spectroscopy as a tool to study the kinetics and formation mechanism of carbonates

2013

We have carried out a systematic study of abiotic precipitation at different temperatures of several Mg and Ca carbonates (calcite, nesquehonite, hydrocalcite) present in carbonaceous chondrites. This study highlights the capability of Raman spectroscopy as a primary tool for performing full mineralogical analysis. The precipitation reaction and the structure of the resulting carbonates were monitored and identified with Raman spectroscopy. Raman spectroscopy enabled us to confirm that the precipitation reaction is very fast (minutes) when Ca(II) is present in the solution, whereas for Mg(II) such reactions developed at rather slow rates (weeks). We also observed that both the composition a…

Die thermische polymerisation von methylmethacrylat, 2. Bildung des ungesättigten dimeren

1980

The spontaneous thermal polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) is accompanied by the production of serveral oligomers among which a linear unsaturated dimer H-1 (dimethyl 1-hexene-2,5-dicarboxylate) is predominant. The reaction kinetics of this dimer formation was investigated in bulk and in solution. The temperature dependence of the second order dimerization constant was determined as Reaction mechanisms for the thermal dimer formation of MMA are discussed.

Data Treatment in Kinetics

2000

Chemical kinetics is an important part of chemistry devoted to study how reactions proceed and quantify the rate of the process. The reaction mechanism is the chemical model that describes how the chemical change occurs. From the proposed mechanism, a mathematical model can be obtained to explain the evolution of the chemical species with time. In many cases, the mechanism can be simplified to a single rate law that relates the reaction rate with concentrations. In the last decades, the study of kinetic systems has benefited from the development of instrumentation, the increasing availability of specialized computer software, and the advances in data treatment techniques. A comprehensive re…
