关于反应分子数定义的讨论

There are two different views on the definition of reaction molecularity in physical chemistry textbooks and related literatures so far. We give a deep discussion about this conception herein. Starting with the development of chemical kinetics and the definition of elementary reaction and state-state reaction, we clarify that elementary reaction and state-state reaction are the conceptions belonging to macro-and micro-systems, respectively, and reaction molecularity is also belonging to micro-conception. Based on this conclusion, we think that the more reasonable definition of reaction molecularity should be "the number of chemical particles that take part in a state-state reaction (or an elementary chemi-physical reaction) as a reactant".     

A new tandem reaction of benzyne: one-pot synthesis of aryl amines containing anthracene

[reaction: see text] The reaction of benzyne with N-substituted imidazoles affords a novel way to prepare arylamines containing anthracene under very mild conditions.

异丁烯直接胺化合成叔丁胺反应的热力学研究

叔丁胺是一种重要的有机化工中间体,广泛应用于制备橡胶促进剂,医药,农药,着色剂等诸多下游产物.目前,叔丁胺主要的生产方法,如叔丁脲水解法,异丁烯-氢氰酸法(Ritter法),卤代烃胺化法等存在产品收率较低,涉及强酸/强碱的使用,对设备腐蚀和环境污染严重等问题.异丁烯直接胺化生产叔丁胺,原子利用率100%,是典型的绿色化学反应.20世纪末,BASF公司以β沸石为催化剂,率先实现了异丁烯胺化技术的工业应用.但是,其反应条件苛刻,压力达28 MPa,生产过程能耗大,对设备材质要求高.目前,关于异丁烯直接胺化的文献较少,且相关研究多在远离工业应用的常压条件下进行.同时,对于异丁烯直接胺化反应过程的热力学,特别是缓和反应条件下的热力学尚待进一步系统和深入地研究分析,以期指导低温低压条件下高性能胺化催化剂的研发和工艺条件优化.我们计算了473?573 K间,异丁烯胺化制备叔丁胺反应的ΔrH,ΔrG,Kp等热力学数据.在此基础上,分析了反应温度,压力和氨烯比(摩尔比)对异丁烯平衡转化率(叔丁胺选择性>99%,未予考虑)的影响.结果表明,异丁烯胺化是中等强度的放热反应,升高反应温度会急剧降低异丁烯的平衡转化率,如在5 MPa,氨烯比1的条件下,反应温度从473 K提高到573 K,异丁烯平衡转化率从40.6%降到6.9%.但从动力学角度而言,升温可提高胺化反应速率,因此在特定的反应条件下和催化剂上,必然存在最佳反应温度.提高反应压力和氨烯比有利于提高异丁烯的热力学平衡转化率.开发在低温和相对较低的压力下具有较高胺化活性的催化剂是提高该过程经济性和实用性的关键.在较缓和的反应条件下(523 K,5 MPa,氨烯比4及异丁烯空速0.5 h?1),考察了ZSM-5(R=50和R=412,R为硅铝比,下同),ZSM-11(R=48),MOR(R=10),SAPO-11(摩尔组成,1.6Al2O3:1.0SiO2:1.4P2O5)等不同拓扑结构分子筛以及氧化铝在异丁烯胺化反应中的性能.结果表明,空白试验中,无叔丁胺产物生成.在ZSM-11上的获得最高的异丁烯胺化转化率,为14.2%(达到平衡转化率的52.2%),在ZSM-5(R=50),ZSM-5(R=412)和MOR上,异丁烯转化率分别为13.9%,6.4%和2.9%,叔丁胺选择性均大于99.8%.而SAPO-11和氧化铝未呈现出胺化反应活性.关联氨气程序升温脱附,吡啶吸附红外表征结果及分子筛孔结构特点,表明分子筛胺化活性与其孔径及Br?nsted酸的酸量和酸强度密切相关.为了进一步验证实际反应体系中反应条件对异丁烯胺化反应过程的影响规律,我们在ZSM-11催化剂上,系统考察了反应温度,压力,氨烯比和异丁烯空速对催化剂胺化反应性能的影响及变化规律.结果表明,在其他条件不变的情况下,异丁烯转化率随着温度的升高呈现出先增大后减小的趋势.适当提高原料中氨烯比和反应压力,以及采用较低异丁烯空速有利于促进异丁烯的转化.上述规律与热力学计算结果呈现出较好的一致性.在ZSM-11催化剂上,异丁烯直接胺化反应的较佳反应条件为523 K,5 MPa,氨烯比4,异丁烯空速0.5 h?1.上述结果可为异丁烯直接胺化合成叔丁胺过程新型高效催化剂的研发和反应工艺条件优化提供参考和指导.     

Direct partial oxidation of methane to methanol： Reaction zones and role of catalyst location

Direct partial oxidation of methane to methanol was investigated in a specially designed reactor. Methanol yield of about 7%-8% was obtained in gas phase partial oxidation. It was proposed that the reactor could be divided into three reaction zones, namely pre-reaction zone, fierce reaction zone, and post-reaction zone, when the temperature was high enough to initiate a reaction. The oxidation of methane proceeded and was completed mostly in the fierce reaction zone. When the reactant mixture entered the post-reaction zone, only a small amount of produced methanol would bring about secondary reactions, because molecular oxygen had been exhausted in the fierce reaction zone. A catalyst, if necessary, should be placed either in the pre-reaction zone, to initiate a partial oxidation reaction at a lower temperature, or in the fierce reaction zone to control the homogeneous free radical reaction.     

Highly efficient synthesis of linear pyrrole oligomers by twofold Heck reactions

The twofold Heck reaction of the vinylpyrroles 3a and 3b with the iodobenzenes 4a-c led to the linear pyrrole oligomers 5, 6, and 7. The synthesis of both symmetrical and unsymmetrical oligomers, such as 10a and 10b, was also accomplished by a Heck reaction of 8 and 9 and by a Heck reaction of 3a and 11 followed by a Wittig reaction and a second Heck reaction with 8. The pentacyclic oligomers 14 and 19 were prepared by a twofold Heck reaction of 13 with 4 and by a twofold Heck reaction of 15 with 16 followed by a Wittig reaction and a twofold Heck reaction with 8.     

Effect of a proximal substituent on the triruthenium dodecacarbonyl-catalyzed reductive carbonylation of nitroarenes

Three nitroarenes were submitted to Ru₃(CO)₁₂-catalyzed reductive carbonylation in acetonitrile and in cis-cyclooctene. The main reaction products were the corresponding amines, ureas and six- or five-membered cyclization products. Optimization of the reaction varying the temperature, the CO pressure, the catalyst/substrate ratio and the reaction time and a statistical analysis of conversion and selectivity data allow to suggest a reaction mechanism in some reaction conditions.     

Synthesis of functionalized m-bistrifluoromethylbenzenes via cyclocondensation of 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetone with enamines

The reaction of 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetone with push-pull enamines having a methyl group at the α-position was investigated. It was found that the reaction is sensitive both to the structure of enamines and to reaction conditions. As a result, a set of bistrifluoromethyldialkylanilines and ethyl bistrifluoromethylsalicylate was prepared. Plausible mechanisms and factors influencing the course of the reaction are discussed.     

Effect of stoichiometry and diffusion on an epoxy/amine reaction mechanism

The bulk phase kinetics of an epoxy (DGEBA) /amine (DDS) thermoset have been studied using DSC, FTIR, and ¹³C-NMR. In the absence of catalyst, the reaction was found to involve a main exothermic reaction between epoxide and amine hydrogen and a side reaction between tertiary amine formed in the main reaction and epoxide. The main reaction was exothermic while the side reaction had no discernable exotherm. Etherification did not occur to any significant extent. Since only the main reaction is exothermic, DSC was very useful for studying the main reaction kinetics. FTIR was used for determining whether epoxide and amine hydrogen were consumed at different rates as a way of following the side reaction. An IR band previously unused by other investigators was used to monitor the amine hydrogen concentration. NMR confirmed the above mechanism by identifying the formation of a quaternary ammonium ion/alkoxide ion pair as a reaction product of tertiary amine and epoxide. This mechanism has been successfully fit to a rate law valid over the entire extent of reaction. The rate constant for the epoxy/amine addition reaction was found to depend on hydroxide concentration (extent), reaction temperature, and glass transition temperature and included contributions from uncatalyzed and autocatalyzed parts. The side reaction (quaternary ammonium ion formation) formed weak bonds which did not affect the overall system T_g. Both reactions were second order. The rate constants for the main reaction first increase with increasing extent due to autocatalysis by hydroxide before decreasing due to the diffusion limit caused by gelation and vitrification. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Feedback Kinetics in Mechanochemistry: The Importance of Cohesive States

Although mechanochemical synthesis is becoming more widely applied and even commercialised, greater basic understanding is needed if the field is to progress on less of a trial‐and‐error basis. We report that a mechanochemical reaction in a ball mill exhibits unusual sigmoidal feedback kinetics that differ dramatically from the simple first‐order kinetics for the same reaction in solution. An induction period is followed by a rapid increase in reaction rate before the rate decreases again as the reaction goes to completion. The origin of these unusual kinetics is found to be a feedback cycle involving both chemical and mechanical factors. During the reaction the physical form of the reaction mixture changes from a powder to a cohesive rubber‐like state, and this results in the observed reaction rate increase. The study reveals that non‐obvious and dynamic rheological changes in the reaction mixture must be appreciated to understand how mechanochemical reactions progress.     

对化学反应数据分类获取反应知识的新方法

尽管已有大量化学反应数据可供使用,但化学家仍常常感到很难便捷地从中得到所需的信息.这主要是由于反应数据库基于结构的检索方法与化学家解决问题的方法相去甚远.为解决这一问题而发展了一种通过对反应进行二级分类得到精细描述反应知识的层次模型的方法.第一次分类时不同的同类反应都在由一组普适性好的称作反应结构一级描述符构成的空间中进行.在第一次分类结果的基础上,得到每一类反应的公共结构特征作为第二次分类的结构描述符,利用它们进行更精细的分类,即可从原始反应数据中得到所需的基核反应.由特定反应、基核反应和基型反应就可将反应知识更合理地组织在同类反应知识库中,使它们得到更好的利用.     

Thermolysis of polyethylene hydroperoxides in the melt, Part 12: Mechanisms and kinetics of thermolysis

The thermolysis of polyethylene hydroperoxides is attributed to the reaction of two hydroperoxide groups. This bimolecular reaction appears as a first-order reaction with the mean values of the hydroperoxide concentrations that can be used for the experimental verification of the kinetics. In low molecular mass liquids and solutions these findings would be irreconcilable. However, in polymer melts, this contradiction is more apparent than real. It is a consequence of the heterogeneous kinetics valid in polymer melts. The bimolecular reaction involves the decomposition of pairs of hydroperoxide groups that are relatively close in the elementary oxidation volumes. By diffusion these hydroperoxide groups can come close enough for reaction. From the chemical point of view the decomposition is a bimolecular reaction. However, from the kinetic point of view it is a first-order reaction of the hydroperoxide pairs. The dependency of the first-order rate on the initial hydroperoxide concentration is explained by the heterogeneous kinetics. The activation energy of the overall process can be related to the sum of the activation energies pertaining to the chemical reaction and to the diffusion process.     

Novel fragmentation reaction of correolide

[reaction: see text] Pentacyclic triterpenoid natural product correolide (1) was converted to ketone 2 via ozonolysis. An unusual fragmentation reaction of ketone 2 with LiCl was discovered. This reaction is general among several similar substrates examined and appears to be specific for the correolide-type E-ring structure (ketone). A mechanism involving a retroaldol reaction, a nucleophilic opening of the epoxide, and a subsequent acetoxy elimination reaction was proposed.     

Change of polymer reactivity in the course of macromolecular reaction

For a macromolecular reaction in polymer solution or melt, the reactivity of the transforming unit is supposed to depend upon its microenvironment, including both the nearest neighbours of the same chain and units belonging to the other chains or low molecular components of the reaction mixture. The microenvironment changes with conversion. Hence, the reactivity of polymer functional groups should change during the reaction. Such a reaction belongs to Markovian processes with locally interacting components and time-dependent transient probabilities. To describe the reaction kinetics, it is necessary: (1) to analyse statistical properties of an individual transforming chain, (2) to derive the kinetic equations using relations based on these properties, (3) to determine the dependence of the transient probabilities upon time or upon degree of conversion. For a general reaction model, equations are derived to describe the kinetic curve, distribution of units and composition heterogeneity of the products. The calculations reveal the influence of an interchain interaction on the reaction rate and also on the distribution of units for reaction in a polymer melt.     

Synthesis of 2,3-anti-3,4-anti and 2,3-anti-3,4-syn propionate motifs: a diastereoselective tandem sequence of Mukaiyama and free-radical-based hydrogen transfer reactions

[reaction: see text] Reported herein is a strategy employing a Mukaiyama reaction in tandem with a hydrogen transfer reaction for the elaboration of 2,3-anti-3,4-anti and 2,3-anti-3,4-syn propionate motifs. The mode of complexation is controlled through monodentate or chelate pathways for the Mukaiyama reaction to give access to either syn or anti aldol products, precursors of the free-radical reduction reaction. Boron Lewis acid is used to control the free-radical reaction through the exocyclic pathway.     

Integration of capacity fading in an electrochemical model of Li-ion batteries

We have developed a new method to describe a fading model integrated with a parasitic reaction of rechargeable Li-ion batteries in the present work. In our work, the Li-ion battery reactions and the parasitic reaction are incorporated into one model. A new governing equation and a new field variable are presented in the new model to characterize the parasitic reaction and the relationship to the battery fading. Due to the new variations, the parameters that are changed with the battery’s aging are able to be calculated and updated automatically in the model. The parasitic reaction is assumed to obey a Tafel equation. The simulating results show that the distribution of overpotential of the parasitic reaction as function of x shapes, a figure close to a “V,” suggests the nonuniform distribution of the parasitic current. The parasitic reaction’s equilibrium potential is proved to be one of most important factors that determine the rate of the reaction. In addition, the cutoff charging state of charge (SOC) has a large influence on the parameters related to the rate of the parasitic reaction. Therefore, controlling the charging SOC can be seen as an effective method to protect the battery from aging.
