构建网络学习资源提高民族高校有机化学课程教学质量

High-quality online course materials were reconstructed through feedback from undergraduate students and online data analysis regarding constructed learning materials on the Chao Xing Learning Platform. They were used for studying organic chemistry courses online and offline in university for nationalities. This model, based on student-centered teaching, can effectively transform students from passively accepting knowledge to actively learning and internalizing knowledge. This strategy can also enhance the students' learning initiative and the effects of learning, and hopefully be helpful to the universities in multi-ethnic areas in developing fundamental disciplined construction of organic chemistry and other courses.     

Oxythallation of norbornene derivatives with thallium(III) acetate in methanol

Treatment of norbornene, norbornadiene, benzonorbornadiene, and chloro- and methoxy-benzonorbornadiene with thallium(III) acetate in methanol affords only the corresponding cis-exo-acetoxythallation adducts in a sharp contrast to oxymercuration of such strained olefins where methoxymercuration prevails. In the cases of substituted benzonorbornadienes the products are obtained as the regioisomeric mixtures, the isomer ratio being determined by ¹³C NMR. In the cases of 5-norbornene-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride, 5-norbornene-2-methyl-2,3-dicarboxylic anhydride, and 5-norbornen-2-endo-carboxylic acid, lactonization occurs to give a trans-oxythallation adduct having a lactone ring, no introduction of either methoxy or acetoxy groups being observed. ¹H and/or ¹³C NMR data for several new oxythallation adducts are provided. The alkaline sodium borohydride reduction of adducts in methanol affords mainly the parent olefin together with 10–16% yields of the corresponding exo-alcohol.     

Stochastic model of dissociation-recombination kinetics in micelles

The small number of reagents solubilized in a micelle prohibits the use of conventional reaction kinetics. In order to describe the kinetics of the reaction A + B ? AB proceeding in a micellar phase, a stochastic model is evaluated. The deviation of these results from those obtained by conventional kinetics may be as high as 20%.

Isomerization of 1,2-diiodoethylene in a laser-induced chemical reaction of I2 + C2H2

A laser-induced chemical reaction of I₂ + C₂H₂ has been studied and the formation of cis and tians isomers of 1,2-diiodoethylene has been observed. The ratio of the two isomers of 1,2-diodoethylene changes markedly upon changing the laser wavelengths of excitation of the I₂ molecule     

Spectroscopy of large molecules in inert gas clusters

Aromatic hydrocarbons provide nucleation centers for the formation of clusters of inert gases in high-flow supersonic beams. Large clusters of Ar, each containing a single tetracene (T) molecule, were prepared by supersonic expansion of the seeded gas at pressures p = 3000–13000 Torr and interrogated by laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy Evidence is reported for homogeneous line broadening of large TAr_n clusters prepared at p? 8000 Torr.     

Reaction of η5-cyclopentadienylbis(triphenylphosphine)cobalt(I) with alkadiynes. Preparation and reactions of bicyclic cobalt metallocycles and a stable trimethylsilyl-substituted mono-complexed alkadiyne. Comments on the mechanism of cobalt-catalyzed alkyne cooligomerization

Reactions of η⁵-cyclopentadienylbis(triphenylphosphine)cobalt(I) (5) with several 2,n-alkadiynes (2) were investigated. Each of these reactions leads initially to a material in which one of the acetylene functional groups is π-coordinated to cobalt; this complex then undergoes conversion to a metallocycle. In cases where the two acetylene functions are connected by three- and four-carbon bridges (2b, 2c), metallocycles formed by intramolecular reaction of two acetylene functions in the same molecule may be isolated. In cases where the acetylene functions are joined by larger or smaller bridges, the reactions are more complex, and both inter- and intramolecular metallocycles are formed. Reactions of 5 with 1,8-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,7-octadiyne (16) gives an isolable crystalline mono-acetylene complex (17), this material is stable in the solid state but undergoes conversion to metallocycle (18) in benzene solution. The relationship of these results to the mechanism of the CpCo(CO)₂-catalyzed benzocycloalkene synthesis is discussed; it is suggested that intramolecular metallocycles are intermediates in reactions leading to benzocyclopentanes and -cyclohexenes, but intermolecular metallocycles are probably involved in reactions leading to benzocyclobutenes.     

Hydroxyl radical formation upon dark oxidation of reduced iron minerals: Effects of iron species and environmental factors

Dark formation of hydroxyl radical upon oxidation of reduced iron minerals plays an important role in the degradation and transformation of organic and inorganic pollutants. Herein, we compared the hydroxyl radical formation from various reduced iron minerals at different redox conditions. OH production was generally observed from the oxidation of reduced iron minerals, following the order: mackinawite (FeS) > reduced nontronite (iron-bearing smectite clay) > pyrite (FeS₂) > siderite (FeCO₃). Structural Fe²⁺ and dissolved O₂ play critical roles in OH production from reduced iron minerals. OH production increases with decreasing pH, and Cl^? has little effect on this process. More importantly, dissolved organic matter significantly enhances OH production, especially under O₂ purging, highlighting the importance of this process in ambient environments. This sunlight-independent pathway in which OH forms during oxidation of reduced iron minerals is helpful for understanding the degradation and transformation of various inorganic and organic pollutants in the redox-fluctuation environments.     

Chemistry of metal hydrides : XXI. Insertion of acetylenes into palladium hydrides

trans-Pd(NO₃)H(PCy₃)₂ (I) when treated with Et₄NCl forms the hydride trans-PdClH(PCy₃)₂ which in turn reacts with AgPF₆ in acetonitrile to give trans-[PdH(CH₃CN)(PCy₃)₂]PF₆ (III). Both I and III react smoothly with acetylenes containing one electron-withdrawing group to give alkenyl products. The geometry of the resulting alkenyl ligand implies that cis addition has occurred and that the hydridic hydrogen adds to the acetylenic carbon containing the electron-withdrawing group.Acetylenes containing two electron-withdrawing groups give mixtures from which both alkenyl and zerovalent acetylene compounds can sometimes be isolated. In the presence of proton sponge, monosubstituted acetylenes still give alkenyl products while those substituted with two electron-withdrawing groups give the zerovalent products in good yield. The relevance of these results to an understanding of the nature of the migratory insertion reaction is discussed.
