Ab initio molecular orbital study of the reactivity of active alkyl groups. V. Nitrosation mechanism of acetone with syn-form of methyl nitrite

The mechanisms of nitrosation of acetone through sodium enolate [CH3CO1CH2]-Na+ (1) or naked enolate [CH3CO1CH2]- (2) with methyl nitrite CH3O3NO2 (3), and the reactivity of the syn-form of 3 (syn-3) during the C-N bond formation process were investigated using ab initio molecular orbital (MO) methods. Our results have demonstrated the predominant formation of E-1-hydroxyimino-2-oxo-propane CH3COCH=NOH (4E) when the complex [CH3CO1CH2NO2(O3CH3)]-Na+ was produced kinetically via a metal-chelated pericyclic transition state (TS(CHELATED)), in which the O3 atom of syn-3 was coordinated to the Na+ atom of 1.     

Spin dynamics in a site diluted finite spin cluster system probed by positive muons

The site diluted finite spin cluster system Rb₂CO _x Mg_1–x F₄ (x=0.15, 0.4, 0.5) has been investigated by the ⁺SR technique. Muon spin relaxation was observed in these diluted magnetic systems in a weak longitudinal field of 100 G. By reducing temperature below 100 K, the experimental data show features of slowing down phenomena of the Co electron moments in the finite spin clusters.     

Threshold electron spectra of semiconductor cluster ions

A simple threshold electron analyzer was constructed and laser photodetachment threshold electron spectra of Si^– and Si ₄ ^– were measured.     

Photoinduced electron-transfer systems consisting of electron-donating pyrenes or anthracenes and benzimidazolines for reductive transformation of carbonyl compounds

Photoinduced electron-transfer reactions of several ketone substrates were studied to evaluate the utilities of 1,6-bis(dimethylamino)pyrene (BDMAP), 1,6-dimethoxypyrene (DMP), 9,10-bis(dimethylamino)anthracene (BDMAA), and 9,10-dimethoxyanthracene (DMA) as electron-donating sensitizers cooperating with 2-aryl-1,3-dimethylbenzimidazolines. BDMAP and DMP generally led higher conversion of ketones and better yield of reduction products compared to BDMAA and DMA.     

Carbazoledioxazines having long alkyl groups. 2. Synthesis of carbazoledioxazines with angular type structure

Carbazoledioxazines with an angular type structure (5,15-dialkyl-7,17-dialkyloxy-9,19-dichloro-5,15-dihydrodiindolo[2,3-c:2′,3′-n]triphenodioxazines) were selectively synthesized by electrochemical oxidative ring closure of precursors (2,5-bis(9-alkyl-2-alkyloxy-3-carbazolylamino)-3,6-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinones). The structure was confirmed by ¹H-nmr and other instrumental analyses. Their thermal properties and solubilities were investigated and were compared with those of carbazoledioxazines with a linear type structure.     

New technology for selective catalytic oxidation of ammonia to nitrogen

The selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) of ammonia to N₂ was studied by using a series of noble metal-V₂O₅-WO₃ catalysts supported on titania-silica (TS) prepared by coprecipitation method. In the V₂O₅-WO₃ catalyst system, the use of TS as a support was very effective to enhance catalytic activity compared with TiO₂ or SiO₂ alone. The addition of a slight amount of Pd and Ir to V₂O₅-WO₃/TS catalyst caused also remarkable enhancement of the catalytic activity without decreasing the selectivity to N₂. The present catalysts provide remarkably high catalytic performance for SCO of ammonia to N₂ under the practical reaction conditions for an industrial application.

New chemosensor for larger guests based on modified cyclodextrin bearing seven hydrophobic chains each with a hydrophilic end group

A new chemosensor for larger guests was prepared. The new chemosensor bears hydrophobic units at the primary hydroxy side and a dansyl unit at the secondary hydroxy side of β-cyclodextrin. Due to the hydrophobic units, the new chemosensor is sensitive to large or slender guests such as SDS and insensitive to 1-adamantanol, which is a good guest for the natural β-CD.
