Alcoylation par l'iodure de butyle,de l'enolate de tetrabutylammonium de l'acetylacetone; nature de l'entite reagissante

The alkylation of tetrabutylammonium acetylacetonate with butyl iodide was studied in order to specify the nature of the reactive anionic species during the nucleophilic reaction of an ambident anion, under similar conditions to those of phase transfer catalysis. The C/O alkylation ratio changes with neither the solvents nor the enolate concentration; however k_obs, varies with the solvent but does not depend on the énolate concentration. The results and spectrophotometric UV data show that only one reactive species, the ion-pair, is involved.     

Etude des solutions solides d'oxyde de lithium dans l'oxyde de nickel. II. Influence de la pression d'oxygene et mecanismes d'incorporation

The formation of solid solutions of lithium and nickel oxides, containing more than 2 at Li %, requires the presence of oxygen under a pressure which must exceed 10^?3 torr at 933 K. Solid solutions containing a maximum of 2 at Li % however can be prepared under a reduced pressure of oxygen (< 10^?4 Torr). Mechanisms are proposed to explain, in both cases, the incorporation of lithium ions in the nickel-oxide lattice.     

Transposition des oxirannes-ethanols par l'intermediaire d'alcoxyetains. Influence de la configuration de l'oxiranne

The transposition of oxirane-ethanols, through alkoxytin compounds, into oxetane-2-methanols and/or oxolan-3-ols (tetrahydrofuran-3-ols) is dependent upon the oxirane configuration. Cis configuration is more suitable for the formation of the smallest ring. Steric hindrance is not sufficient enough to explain the results.     

Effet α. influence de la substitution sur l'exaltation de reactivite d'oximes vis-a-vis de l'acetate de p-nitrophenyle

Kinetic measurements show the relation between the magnitude of the “α effect” exhibited by trifluoromethyloximate anions RR'C=N-O^? and the electron attracting properties of the substituents. Indeed, the reactivity enhancement which is observed for α-trifluoromethyloximes is similar to that found in earlier studies of α-hydroxyiminoketones. This characteristic behaviour is no longer observed for oximes bearing an electron releasing substituent at the α-position of the hydroxyimino group. On the basis of sodium oximate molecular orbital energies the “α effect” induced by electron attracting substituents appears to depend on both the interactions of nitrogen and oxygen lone pairs of electrons and the lowering of the π^* vacant orbital thus favouring a secondary interaction between the π^* anion orbital and the π orbital of p-nitrophenylacetate carbonyl group.     

Etude de l'equilibre entre l'oxyde de nickel et l'oxygene. Essai d'interpretation des lois de variation de la conductivite electrique en fonction de la temperature

In a previous paper we have shown that at 740°C and under an oxygen pressure less than 1,3 torr the electrical conductance G of a NiO powder reaches rapidly an apparently stabilized signal G_i which sharply decreases after a sufficiently long time to a G₀ value independent of P_O2.From this observation we have studied the influence of the temperature successively on the electrical conductance G_i and G₀. The Arrhenius law is only verified for the G₀ = f(T) curve. G₀ appears as the representative value of the gas-solid equilibrium.     

Sinthese de copolymeres sequences de l'acetate de vinyle et de l'acrylate d'ethyle par telomerisation

A new two-step procedure for the synthesis of ethyl acrylate - vinyl acetate block copolymers is described : the first stage is the telomerisation of ethyl acrylate with carbon tetrachloride by redox catalysis, the second being another telomerisation of vinyl acetate, using the trichloromethyl end group of the first block as the telogen agent, with peroxydic initiation.     

Dosage de l'hydrogene,de l'azote et de l'oxygene dans le monocarbure d'uranium

A method is described for the determination of hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen in uranium monocarbide. Hydrogen and oxygen are determined by the classical or modified “Platinum flux” method at 2000° with a coefficient of variation of 10%. Nitrogen is determined at 2000° by the modification of the “Platinum flux” technique. The results obtained are in agreement with those found by Kjeldahl analysis. The coefficient of variation is about 10%. A procedure for the simultaneous determination of the 3 gases is given.     

Enolates de l'acetylacetate d'ethyle. Structure et reactivite du sel de potassium en presence d'ether couronne et de cryptand

It is shown that, through the addition of 18-crown-6 or cryptand (2.2.2) to potassium ethyl acetoacetate enolate solutions in tetrahydrofuran, 1:1 complexes are formed. A single crystal of the 1:1 potassium énolate-18-crown-6 complex has been obtained. Its structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The crystal includes entities formed from an enolate anion chelating a potassium cation externally complexed by the crown-ether. The vibrational spectrometry shows that the structure of the entity is kept in solution. In the species formed through the addition of cryptand (2.2.2), the enolate anion has a structure (IR spectroscopy) and a reactivity very close to that of the free anion, observed in a dissociating solvent (DMSO, HMPA). When crown ether is added, a contact ion pair is formed, in which the cation is externally solvated by the crown. On the other hand, the cation encapsulation by the cryptand leads to a released anion with an “ S-trans” or “W” structure. The reactivity and the orientation of the alkylation reactions of these entities have been measured in THF solutions. They are discussed in relation to the structure of the species present in the reaction medium.

The oxydation of α-allenic acetates affords conjugated dienones whereas α-allenic trimethylsilyl ethers give rise to silyl ethers of unsaturated α-cetols. A ?1,4 migration of the function is involved.
