Geminate charge recombination in liquid alkane with concentrated CCl4: effects of CCl4 radical anion and narrowing of initial distribution of Cl-

Dynamics of radical cations and electrons in an admixture of a linear saturated hydrocarbon (n-dodecane) and halocarbon (carbon tetrachloride, CCl(4)) were investigated by picosecond electron beam pulse radiolysis. The decay of thermalized electrons (e(th)(-)) observed in infrared transient photoabsorption were simply accelerated by the addition of CCl(4), giving a high rate constant of 2.3 × 10(11) mol(-1) dm(3) s(-1). The decrease of the initial yield of e(th)(-) was quantified by C(37) (50 mmol), which is linked to the reaction of epithermal electrons (e(-)) with CCl(4). In contrast, the n-dodecane radical cation (RH(2)(?+)) monitored in the near-infrared indicated a convex-type dependence of the decay rate on CCl(4) concentration, although the initial yield of RH(2)(?+) remained almost constant up to a much higher CCl(4) concentration. The decay of RH(2)(?+) was analyzed by Monte Carlo simulations of geminate ion recombination with e(th)(-), chlorine anion (Cl(-)) formed via dissociative electron attachment, and CCl(4) radical anion. The results showed a good agreement with the experiments by considering two assumptions: (1) CCl(4) radical anion formed via e(th)(-) attachment and (2) narrowing of the initial distribution of Cl(-). The decrease in the initial yield of RH(2)(?+) at high CCl(4) concentration was well explained by immediate decomposition of CCl(4)(?+) to CCl(3)(+) and hole transfer from CCl(4)(?+) to adjacent RH(2) without diffusive motion of the reactants. Time-dependent density functional theory supported the spectroscopic assignment of intermediate species in the n-dodecane/CCl(4) system. The present results would be of help in understanding the electron capture reaction in multicomponent systems such as a chemically amplified resist in lithography.     

Modular synthesis of amine-functionalized oxazolines

Substituted oxazoline amines have been prepared in high yield from beta-amino alcohols and Fmoc-protected alpha-amino acids using CCl(4), PPh(3), and Hünig's base in a one-pot procedure followed by base-mediated deprotection. [reaction: see text]     

Hydrogen/chlorine exchange reactions of gaseous carbanions

Gas-phase reactions of three typical carbanions CH(2)NO(2)(-), CH(2)CN(-), and CH(2)S(O)CH(3)(-) with the chloromethanes CH(2)Cl(2), CHCl(3), and CCl(4), examined by tandem mass spectrometry, show a novel hydrogen/chlorine exchange reaction. For example, reaction between the nitromethyl anion CH(2)NO(2)(-) and carbon tetrachloride CCl(4) forms the ion CHClNO(2)(-). The suggested reaction mechanism involves nucleophilic attack by CH(2)NO(2)(-) at the chlorine of CCl(4) followed by proton transfer within the resulting complex [CH(2)ClNO(2) + CCl(3)(-)] to form CHClNO(2)(-) and CHCl(3). Two other carbanions CH(2)CN(-) and CH(2)S(O)CH(3)(-) also undergo the novel hydrogen/chlorine exchange reactions with CCl(4) but to a much smaller extent, their higher nucleophilicities favoring competitive nucleophilic attack reactions. Proton abstraction is the exclusive pathway in the reactions of these carbanions with CHCl(3). While CH(2)CN(-) and CH(2)S(O)CH(3)(-) promote mainly proton abstraction and nucleophilic displacement in reactions with CH(2)Cl(2), CH(2)NO(2)(-) does not react.     

One-pot in situ formation and reaction of trimethyl(trichloromethyl)silane: application to the synthesis of 2,2,2-trichloromethylcarbinols

2,2,2-Trichloromethylcarbinols are 1 are valuable synthetic intermediates with a multitude of uses. A scalable procedure for the synthesis of TMS-protected-2,2,2-trichloromethylcarbinols and 2,2,2-trichloromethylcarbinols 1 was developed that employs the in situ generation and reaction of trimethyl(trichloromethyl)silane (CCl(3)-TMS). The procedure avoids the exposure of the carbonyl compounds to the strongly basic conditions typically used for this transformation and also avoids isolation of the difficult-to-handle CCl(3)-TMS. This procedure was applied to diastereoselective trichloromethyl additions to 2-substituted 4-piperidinones and to reactions with a variety of structurally diverse aldehydes and ketones.     

Resonant dissociative electron transfer of the presolvated electron to CCl4 in liquid: Direct observation and lifetime of the CCl4*- transition state

We report a pump-probe femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopic study on the electron transfer reaction of CCl(4) in liquid ethanol. By direct observations of the presolvated electron and of the reaction transition state CCl(4) (*-), this study provides direct evidence of the resonant dissociative electron transfer (RDET) of the presolvated electron to CCl(4). Moreover, the lifetime of CCl(4) (*-) in ethanol is directly obtained from the decay kinetics and its measured value is found to be nearly identical to its gas-phase value. Hence, these results also imply that RDET can be an efficient process in an aqueous environment.     

Formation of Three-Membered Rings by S(H)i Displacement. Reverse of Cyclopropyl Ring Opening(1)

The general methods, photoinitiated or peroxide-initiated free radical chain additions of halomethanes to olefins, yield 1,2-addition products at temperatures ranging from 20 to 100 degrees C. At lower temperatures, -42 to -104 degrees C, a competitive reaction, subsequent to the addition of CCl(2)X(*), yields alkylcyclopropanes. The reactions of 1-octene or 1-hexene and 1-methylcyclohexene with atomic hydrogen carried out in the presence of several transfer agents (CCl(4), CCl(3)Br, CCl(2)Br(2)) initiate a radical chain addition of CCl(2)X(*) and yield cyclized materials resulting from the S(H)i displacement of halogen by a carbon-centered radical. The radical displacement of a halogen on carbon, the reverse of homolytic displacement on cyclopropyl carbon, is dominant at low temperatures. The rate constants for cyclization (k(c)) vs transfer with halomethane (k(t)) showed isokinetic temperatures of -46 degrees C (CCl(4), 1-hexene); -35 degrees C (CCl(4), 1-methylcyclohexene). The isokinetic temperatures for the reactions of the two substrates carried out in the presence of BrCCl(3) were calculated as -204 degrees C (1-octene) and -109 degrees C (1-methylcyclohexene).     

Extraction and spectrophotometric determination of cobalt with dithizone

Cobalt(II) in acetate-tartrate buffer (pH 6.0-7.3) is extracted quantitatively as cobalt(III) dithizonate with excess of dithizone in CCl(4). The molar absorptivity in the CCl(4) phase is 4.6 x 10(4) 1.mole(-1).cm(-1) at the absorption maximum 550 nm. The calibration graph is linear for 1-10 mug of cobalt in 10 ml of CCl(4) when excess of dithizone is removed by back-extraction with 0.01M aqueous ammonia. Most interferences can be overcome by (a) initial extraction with dithizone at pH 1.3, (b) selective back-extraction into hydrochloric acid (pH 1 to 2), (c) oxidation of iron and tin to iron(III) and tin(IV) and addition of fluoride to complex the former, and (d) selective reaction of nickel dithizonate with 1,10-phenanthroline in the CCl(4) phase followed by back-extraction of nickel into 0.1M acid. The method has been applied to determination of cobalt in a copper-nickel-zinc alloy and a nimonic alloy.     

Hybrid quantum mechanical and molecular mechanics study of the S(N)2 Reaction of CCl4 + OH- in aqueous solution: the potential of mean force, reaction energetics, and rate constants

The bimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction of CCl(4) and OH(-) in aqueous solution was investigated on the basis of a combined quantum mechanical and molecular mechanics method. A multilayered representation approach is employed to achieve high accuracy results at the CCSD(T) level of theory. The potential of mean force calculations at the DFT level and CCSD(T) level of theory yield reaction barrier heights of 22.7 and 27.9 kcal/mol, respectively. Both the solvation effects and the solvent-induced polarization effect have significant contributions to the reaction energetics, for example, the solvation effect raises the saddle point by 10.6 kcal/mol. The calculated rate constant coefficient is 8.6 × 10(-28) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) at the standard state condition, which is about 17 orders magnitude smaller than that in the gas phase. Among the four chloromethanes (CH(3)Cl, CH(2)Cl(2), CHCl(3), and CCl(4)), CCl(4) has the lowest free energy activation barrier for the reaction with OH(-) in aqueous solution, confirming the trend that substitution of Cl by H in chloromethanes diminishes the reactivity.     

EPR and electronic spectral studies of bis(dihalcogenocarbamato)copper(II)-solvent interactions

The interaction of bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)copper(II), Cu(Et2dtc)2, and bis(diethyldiselenocarbamato)copper(II), Cu(Et2dsc)2, complexes with solvents is studied by EPR and electronic spectroscopy. The solvents used are CCl4, CHCl3, CH2Cl2, C6H5 x CH3, DMFA and DMSO. It is found that Cu(Et2dsc)2 is destroyed in a first order reaction in CCl4 with an activation energy of 5.2 kcal/mol. The other complex, Cu(Et2dtc)2, is only destroyed in DMSO. The observed effects and reaction pathways are discussed in terms of solute-solvent donor-acceptor interactions taking into account the differences in the electronic structures of both complexes.     

EPR study on the ligand-exchange reaction between bis(diethyldiselenocarbamato)copper(II) and bis(octyldithiocarbonato)copper(II)

EPR study on the ligand-exchange reaction between bis(diethyldiselenocarbamato)copper(II), Cu(Et2dsc)2, and bis(octyldithiocarbonato)copper(II), Cu(octxant)2, in CH2Cl2, CHCl3, CCl4, C6H6 and C6H5.CH3 is reported for the first time. Mixing of equimolar amounts of the parents (chromophores CuSe4 and CuS4, respectively) in C6H6, C6H5.CH3 and CH2Cl2 makes EPR signals of both parents superimposed by the spectrum of a mixed-chelate Cu(xant)(dsc) complex (chromophore CuS2Se2). A new additional EPR spectrum appears in CHCl3 or CCl4 due to a five-coordinate mixed-ligand complex with the chromophore Cu(S3Se)S as follows by comparing the g-values of parents and mixed-ligand complexes. The appearance of this complex could be explained having in mind donor-acceptor properties of complexes, solvents and the resultant reaction of Cu(octxant)2 with the ester of diselenocarbamic acid yielded in Cu(Et2dsc)2 destruction by CCl4 or CHCl3.     

About the barriers to reaction of CCl4 with HFeOH and FeCl2

The reactions of zerovalent iron with water and carbon tetrachloride are of interest for environmental remediation of contaminated water and soil. Atom-dropping experiments have shown that the reactions of iron atoms with water and CCl(4) may produce HFeOH and FeCl(2), respectively, but these compounds are themselves unreactive toward CCl(4) at the low temperatures under which the atom-dropping experiments were performed. We report a modeling study of these reactions using density functional theory, ab initio Hartree-Fock and couple-cluster theory, and principles of Marcus-Hush theory to characterize the underlying intrinsic barriers and rationalize the experimental results. Electron-correlated CCSD(T) calculations (at B3LYP/TZVP optimized structures) show that the transition state for Cl atom transfer from CCl(4) to HFeOH arises from crossing of electronic states in which the configuration of Fe changes from a quintet high spin state in the Fe(II) reactant to a sextet high spin state in the Fe(III) products. The crossing point is 23.8 kcal/mol above a long-range precursor complex that is 2.1 kcal/mol more stable than the separated reactants. The electronic structure changes in these Cl atom transfer reactions involve unpairing of d electrons in Fe(II) and their recoupling with Cl-C σ bond electrons. These processes can be conveniently described by invoking the self-exchange reactions HFeOH/HFeClOH, FeCl(2)/FeCl(3), and CCl(4)/(?)CCl(3) for which we determined the energy barriers to be 15.5, 13.1, 18.6 kcal/mol, respectively. For the cross reaction FeCl(2)/CCl(4), we estimated a barrier of 16.6 kcal/mol relative to the separated reactants and 21.1 kcal/mol from the precursor complex. The magnitudes of the reaction barriers are consistent with reports of the absence of products in the atom-dropping experiments.     

Coordination chemistry of stable radicals: homolysis of a titanium-oxygen bond

Thermolysis of Cp2TiCl(TEMPO) (TEMPO = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) at 60 degrees C in a benzene/CCl4 mixture generates Cp2TiCl2. Kinetic studies implicate a mechanism involving the reversible cleavage of a Ti-O bond to generate the TEMPO radical and Cp2TiCl, which is trapped by CCl4 to give Cp2TiCl2. The rate of this reaction is strongly inhibited by added TEMPO and increases with increasing CCl4 concentration, indicating that the coupling of TEMPO to Cp2TiCl is faster than chloride atom abstraction from CCl4.     

Theoretical mechanistic study on the radical-molecule reaction of CHCl2/CCl3 with NO2

The radical-molecule reaction mechanism of CHCl(2) and CCl(3) with NO(2) have been explored theoretically at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) and MC-QCISD (single-point) levels. For the singlet potential energy surface (PES) of CHCl(2) + NO(2) reaction, the association of CHCl(2) with NO(2) was found to be a barrierless carbon-to-nitrogen approach forming an energy-rich adduct a (HCl(2)CNO(2)) followed by isomerization to b(1) (trans-cis-HCl(2)CONO), which can easily interconvert to b(2), b(3), and b(4). Subsequently, the most feasible pathway is the 1,3-chlorine migration associated with N-O1 bond cleavage of b(1) leading to P(1) (CHClO + ClNO). The second competitive pathway is the 1,4-chlorine migration along with N-O1 bond rupture of b(4) giving rise to P(2) (CHClO + ClON). Moreover, some of P(1) and P(2) can further dissociate to give P(6) (CHClO + Cl + NO). The lesser followed competitive channel is the 1,3-H-shift from C to N atom along with N-O1 bond rupture of b(1) to form P(3) (CCl(2)O + HNO). The concerted 1,4-H-shift accompanied by N-O1 bond fission of b(3) to product P(4) (CCl(2)O + HON) is even much less feasible. For the singlet PES of CCl(3) + NO(2) reaction, the only primary product is found to be P(1) (CCl(2)O + ClNO), which can lead to P(2) (CCl(2)O + Cl + NO) via dissociation of ClNO. The obtained major products CHClO and CCl(2)O for CHCl(2) + NO(2) and CCl(3) + NO(2) reactions, respectively, are in good agreement with kinetic detection in experiment. Compared with the singlet pathways, the triplet pathways may have less contributions to both reactions. Because the rate-determining transition state involved in the feasible pathways lie above the reactants R, the title reactions may be important in high-temperature processes. The similarities and discrepancies among the CH(n)Cl(3-n) + NO(2) (n == 0-2) reactions are discussed in terms of the substitution effect. The present study may be helpful for further experimental investigation of the title reactions.     

A New Target for Synthesis: Theoretical Prediction for the Reaction between Boron Nitride Nanotube and Dichlorocarbene

Understanding the chemistry of BNNT is a crucial step toward their ultimate practical use. A comparative study of Reactions A （ASWCNT （5,5） and CCl2） and B （ASWBNNT （5,5） and CCl2） have been performed by using ONIOM （B3LYP/6-31G＊： AM1） method in Gaussian03 program package. The results show that （1） the two reactions are both exothermic; （2） the mechanism of Reaction B is a two-step mechanism; （3） the difference in energy barriers suggests that the reaction of CCl2 with BNNT is easier than with CNT; （4） in reaction B, CCl2 prefers to attack the boron atom of BNNT first.     

Low-temperature destruction of carbon tetrachloride over lanthanide oxide-based catalysts: from destructive adsorption to a catalytic reaction cycle

The catalytic destruction of carbon tetrachloride in the presence of steam, CCl(4) + 2 H(2)O-->4 HCl + CO(2), was investigated at 200-350 degrees C over a series of lanthanide (La, Ce, Pr and Nd) and alkaline-earth metal (Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba) oxide-based catalysts with kinetic experiments, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and DFT calculations. This new catalytic reaction was achieved by combining destructive adsorption of CCl(4) on a basic oxide surface and concurrent dechlorination of the resulting partially chlorinated solid by steam. The combination of the two noncatalytic reactions into a catalytic cycle provided a rare opportunity in heterogeneous catalysis for studying the nature and extent of surface participation in the overall reaction chemistry. The reaction is proposed to proceed over a terminal lattice oxygen site with stepwise donation of chlorine atoms from the hydrocarbon to the surface and formation of the gas-phase intermediate COCl(2), which is readily readsorbed at the catalyst surface to form CO(2). In a second step, the active catalyst surface is regenerated by steam with formation of gas-phase HCl. Depending on the reaction conditions, the catalytic material was found to transform dynamically from the metal oxide state to the metal oxide chloride or metal chloride state due to the bulk diffusion of oxygen and chlorine atoms. A catalyst obtained from a 10 wt % La(2)O(3)/Al(2)O(3) precursor exhibited the highest destruction rate: 0.289 g CCl(4) h(-1) g(-1) catalyst at 350 degrees C, which is higher than that of any other reported catalyst system.     

Modification mechanism of Sn for hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene over PVP-Pd/γ-Al2O3

PVP-Pd (1.5 wt.%)/γ-Al₂O₃ was prepared and used as a catalyst for the hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene (p-CNB) to form p-chloroaniline (p-CAN), so that a serious dehalogenation reaction was happened. However, the catalytic property of this catalyst was remarkably affected by some metal cationic additives. Especially, when Sn⁴⁺ was introduced into the reaction system, the activity of the catalyst was not only promoted, but the dehalogenation reaction was also greatly suppressed. The average rate of hydrogenation increased from 1.28 mol H₂/mol Pd s on PVP-Pd/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst to 1.96 mol H₂/mol Pd s on the PVP-Pd-Sn⁴⁺/γ-Al₂O₃ catalyst (molar ratio of Pd to Sn = 1:1), and the selectivity for p-CAN increased from 66.8 to 96.6%. The dehalogenation reaction was completely restrained as the molar ratio of Sn⁴⁺ to Pd was up to 5. The great promotion role of Sn⁴⁺ could be owing to the interaction between Sn⁴⁺ and −NO₂ group of the substrate. The combination of Sn⁴⁺ with oxygen in −NO₂ increased the polarity of NO bond. The increase of the polarity of NO benefited the activated dihydrogen to attack the NO bond, and the hydrogenation was accelerated. At the same time, the increase of the polarity of NO bond caused the more lone pair electron of p orbital on chlorine atom to dislocate to phenyl ring, so CCl bond was strengthened and the polarity of CCl was weakened. Furthermore, these were unfavorable for the activated dihydrogen to attack CCl bond and the hydrogenation selectivity was greatly improved.     

Size-dependent surface reactions of Ag nanoparticles supported on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite

Various sizes of Ag particles were grown on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surfaces, which had previously been modified with nanopits to act as anchoring sites. Surface reactions of O2, CHCl3, and CCl4 on the Ag particles and bulk Ag(111) surfaces were studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and it has been shown that size dependence of O2 and CHCl3 reactions on Ag differs from that of CCl4. Weak reactions of O2 and CHCl3 were observed on the bulk Ag(111) surfaces, while strong reactions occur on Ag particles with medium Ag coverage, suggesting that the reactions are controlled by the number of surface defect sites. On the contrary, the dissociation of CCl4 is mainly determined by the exposed Ag facet area, mainly Ag(111) facet, and strong dissociation reaction happens on the bulk Ag(111) surface. The results suggest that the size effects, which are often discussed in heterogeneous catalysis, are strongly dependent on the reaction mechanism.     

Theoretical study of CCl(4) adsorption and hydrogenation on a Pt (111) surface

The adsorption and hydrogenation of carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) on a Pt (111) surface have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT). We have performed calculations on the adsorption energies and structures of CCl(4) on four different adsorption sites of a Pt (111) surface using the full adsorbate geometry optimization method. The results show that the adsorption energy of all of the potential sites is less than -17 kcal/mol, which indicates that CCl(4) is physiosorbed on a Pt (111) surface through van der Waals interactions. The dissociation and hydrogenation pathways were investigated by a transition state search. For the Pt(15), Pt(19), and Pt(25) cluster surfaces, the activation energies of dissociation obtained in this work are 15.69, 16.94, and 16.77 kcal/mol, respectively. The hydrogenation of CCl(3). was studied at the on-top site of the Pt(15) cluster, and the calculated activation energy is 5.06 kcal/mol. The small activation energies indicate that the Pt (111) surface has high catalytic activity for the CCl(4) hydrogenation reaction. In addition, the Hirshfeld population analysis reveals that the charge transfer from the Pt (111) surface to the adsorbates occurs in both the dissociation and hydrogenation pathways.     

Unexpected differences in the alpha-halogenation and related reactivity of sulfones with perhaloalkanes in KOH-t-BuOH

Most alkyl phenyl sulfones are readily alpha-chlorinated with CCl(4) and alpha-brominated with CBrCl3 in KOH-t-BuOH via radical-anion radical pair (RARP) reactions. While isopropyl mesityl sulfone (4) is easily alpha-chlorinated with CCl(4), it was completely recovered when treated with the more reactive CBrCl3. Subsequent investigations showed the latter result to be due to the poor acidity of 4 together with the rapid depletion of CBrCl3 and KOH by their reaction with each other, and led to a variety of other important results. 4-Hydroxyphenyl isopropyl sulfone (6) is unreactive with either CCl4 or CBrCl3 in KOH-t-BuOH, its phenoxide anion strongly reducing the electronegativity of the sulfonyl group, thereby inhibiting alpha-anion formation. This effect is reversed by the electron-withdrawing influence of two alpha-phenyls, so that benzhydryl 4-hydroxyphenyl sulfone (8) is readily alpha-halogenated in KOH-t-BuOH with CCl4 or CBrCl3. On further contact with KOH-t-BuOH the alpha-halogenated sulfones from 8 are decomposed into benzophenone and phenol. While the alpha-halogenated derivatives of 4-methoxyphenyl benzhydryl sulfone (9) are stable to base, they are decomposed even under mildly acidic conditions into 4-methoxyphenyl 4-methoxybenzenethiolsulfonate (9c), phenol, and benzophenone. Mono-alpha-halogenation of benzyl phenyl sulfone (10) enhances the rate of the subsequent halogenation, so that alpha,alpha-dihalogenation is attained while much substrate is still present and the mono-alpha-halogenated product is not detected. The ease of reductive debromination of alpha-bromo sulfones with Cl3C- was correlated with the stability of the formed alpha-anions, explaining the success with alpha-bromobenzylic sulfones but failure with alpha-bromoalkyl sulfones. In the presence of air and the absence of competing halogenation, formation of the alpha-anions of alkyl aryl sulfones is quickly accompanied by oxidative cleavage by atmospheric O2, leading to the formation of arenesulfonyl alcohols, arenesulfonyl halides, and haloarenes.
