Kinetics and mechanism of the reaction of propylene oxide with chlorine atoms and hydroxy radicals

The kinetics and mechanism of gas‐phase propylene oxide (PPO) reactions were studied in a 142‐L reaction chamber by long‐path Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy at atmospheric pressure and 298 K. Rate coefficients for the reaction of PPO with ozone (O₃), chlorine atoms (Cl), and hydroxyl radicals (OH) were measured using the relative rate technique. Product yields of acetic acid, acetic formic anhydride, formic acid, and carbon monoxide were determined for the following reactions: PPO with Cl both in the presence and absence of NO, PPO with OH and NO, methyl acetate with Cl both in the presence and absence of NO, and ethyl formate with Cl both in the presence and absence of NO. The measured rate coefficients for PPO with O₃, Cl, and OH are <3.5 × 10^?21 cm³ molecule^?1 s^?1, (3.0 ± 0.7) × 10^?11 cm³ molecule^?1 s^?1, and (3.0 ± 1.0) × 10^?13 cm³ molecule^?1 s^?1, respectively. The carbon balance for the products measured ranged from 10% (for OH + PPO) to 100% (for Cl + methyl acetate in the absence of NO). The mechanistic and atmospheric implications of these measurements are discussed. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 43: 507–521, 2011     

Voltage-controlled optical switch in planar nematic liquid crystal film

This study presents an integrated device that consists of a directional coupler and an electro-optic switch. The device is designed to include a nematic liquid crystal cell, comprising a grating-like electrode. Applying the appropriate voltage to the cell yields a periodically distributed refractive index. An incident polarized beam will couple to an adjacent channel if it is parallel to the channel. The coupling efficiency is controlled by applied voltage. An obliquely injected polarized beam will be reflected and refracted in the channel, and propagated along a curved path. The route of the beam can be controlled by applying the voltage. A multiport routing was achieved for voltage modulation. In addition, the distribution of refractive index is also investigated by employing conoscopic technique experimentally and numerically.     

Synthesis of Structurally Varied 1,3‐Disiloxanediols and Their Activity as Anion‐Binding Catalysts

A series of new 1,3‐disiloxanediols has been synthesized, including naphthyl‐substituted and unsymmetrical siloxanes, and demonstrated as a new class of anion‐binding catalysts. In the absence of anions, diffusion‐ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) displays self‐association of 1,3‐disiloxanediols through hydrogen‐bonding interactions. Binding constants determined for 1,3‐disiloxanediol catalysts indicate strong hydrogen‐bonding and anion‐binding abilities with unsymmetrical siloxanes displaying different hydrogen‐bonding abilities for each silanol group.     

Combined Helmholtz equation-least squares method for reconstructing acoustic radiation from arbitrarily shaped objects

A combined Helmholtz equation-least squares (CHELS) method is developed for reconstructing acoustic radiation from an arbitrary object. This method combines the advantages of both the HELS method and the Helmholtz integral theory based near-field acoustic holography (NAH). As such it allows for reconstruction of the acoustic field radiated from an arbitrary object with relatively few measurements, thus significantly enhancing the reconstruction efficiency. The first step in the CHELS method is to establish the HELS formulations based on a finite number of acoustic pressure measurements taken on or beyond a hypothetical spherical surface that encloses the object under consideration. Next enough field acoustic pressures are generated using the HELS formulations and taken as the input to the Helmholtz integral formulations implemented through the boundary element method (BEM). The acoustic pressure and normal component of the velocity at the discretized nodes on the surface are then determined by solving two matrix equations using singular value decomposition (SVD) and regularization techniques. Also presented are in-depth analyses of the advantages and limitations of the CHELS method. Examples of reconstructing acoustic radiation from separable and nonseparable surfaces are demonstrated.     

Anion exchange in the channels of a robust alkaline earth sulfonate coordination network

The barium sulfonate network presented herein, [[Ba2(L)(H2O)5]Cl]infinity (1), represents the first metal sulfonate compound to possess a cationic framework. The network is layered with channels between pillaring ligands in which chloride ions reside. Compound 1 contracts slightly upon dehydration but retains its overall structural motif to 420 degrees C. Significantly, the chloride ions of the structure can be exchanged in 80% yield for fluoride ions in a facile manner. This exchange is quantified by elemental analyses, gravimetric determination, and 19F NMR spectroscopy. Confirmation of retention of structure is provided by standardized powder X-ray diffraction experiments. This last point is notable as the F-analogue of the structure is not attainable by a direct synthesis. These results illustrate one of the hallmark features of supramolecular chemistry, that a robust and functional framework can result through cooperative interactions between more weakly interacting units.     

The bicyclic n,n'-diacylaminal: a new motif for molecular self-assembly

A cage-shaped N,N'-diacylaminal crystallizes from some aromatic solvents as "supramolecular chair cyclohexanes", squat cylindrical hexamers with approximate D3d symmetry containing two arene molecules, and from other aromatic and nonaromatic solvents as infinite tapes. A homologous diacylaminal crystallizes only as an infinite tape. The hexamers represent the first examples of cyclic hexamers held together by %@mt;sys@%%@bold@%R%@rsf@%%@sx@%2%@be@%2%@sxx@%%@fn;(;vis;full;auto@%8%@fnx;);vis;full@%-type%@mx@% hydrogen bonds in which the hydrogen-bonded atoms are not coplanar. The diacylaminal represents a new supramolecular synthon, one perhaps more suited to the design of three-dimensional architectures.     

Polar effects in nitride coupling reactions

The nucleophilic molybdenum nitride (Et(2)NCS(2))(3)MoN (1) reacts with the electrophilic osmium nitride complex TpOsNCl(2) (2, Tp = hydrotris(1-pyrazolyl)borate) to produce molecular nitrogen. Reaction of 1 at the nitride is accompanied by a substantial amount of reaction at a sulfur atom of the dithiocarbamate ligand, forming the osmium thionitrosyl complex TpOs(NS)Cl(2) (4). Labeling experiments establish that the N(2) produced comes specifically (>96%) from mixed-metal (molybdenum-osmium) coupling. The major transition-metal-containing product of the reaction is the mu-nitrido complex TpOsCl(2)(mu-N)Mo(S(2)CNEt(2))(3) (3), where the bridging nitride derives primarily (82%) from the osmium nitride 2. The mu-nitrido complex 3 has been characterized crystallographically, and shows a nitride bridge that is very asymmetric (Mo-N = 1.721(3) A, Os-N = 1.906(3) A), with less multiple bonding toward osmium and more toward molybdenum. Heterometallic coupling is much faster than either homometallic coupling reaction, in particular the osmium-osmium coupling, despite the greater oxidizing power of osmium over molybdenum. The origin and implications of this kinetic effect on nitride coupling and dinitrogen cleavage are discussed.     

Precipitation of inorganic salts inside hollow micrometer-sized polyelectrolyte shells

Hollow polymer shells formed by layer-by-layer adsorption of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes onto micrometer-sized colloidal particles with subsequent decomposition of the colloidal core were employed as a model system for the study of inorganic crystallization reactions in restricted volumes. The size-selective permeability of shells is used for spatially controlling the precipitation of inorganic salts CaCO3 and BaCO3 into the shell interior. Outside the shells the precipitation was suppressed by the polymers, which are unable to penetrate the shell wall. The precipitates were studied by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The fundamental and applied aspects of research on spatially confined synthesis of inorganic particles are under discussion.
