Effects of Non-planarity in the Radical Anions of Tribenzo[a,c,e]cyclooctenes

Reduction of tribenzo[a,c,e]cyclooctene ( 2 ) and its 2,3- and 1,4-dimethyl derivatives ( 4 and 5 ), as well as of 1,1-dimethyl-10,11-propane-2,2-diylidene-1H-benzo[5,6]cycloocta[1,2,3,4-def]fluorene ( 6 ) and its 5,6-didehydro derivative ( 7 ) was followed by cyclic voltammetry. The radical anions of these compounds and those of their derivatives (D) 2 , (D) 5 , and (D) 6 , deuteratsd at C(9) in 1 and 5 or in the corresponding position of 6, have been characterized with the use of ESR, ENDOR, and TRIPLE-resonance spectroscopy. The cyclic-voltammetric and proton-hyperfine data are consistent with the increasing deviations of the radical anions from planarity in the order These deviations, due to steric or interferences in the peri-positions 1?14 and 4?5, are removed in and by the introduction of bridging groups. The non-plalarity affects the thermodynamic and kinetic stabilities of the radical anions and causes a shift in the π-spin distribution away from that benzene ring which is linked to the two others by the essential single bonds C(4a)? C(4b) and C(14a)? C(14b). This finding suggests that the steric hindrance in , and is alleviated by twisting this ring out of coplanarity with the remaining (Z)-stilbene-like π-system.

The electric properties of polymer composites with highly conductive 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethan (TCNQ) salts such as quinolinium–TCNQ complex salt (), acridinium–TCNQ complex salt (), and N-methylacridinium–TCNQ complex salt () were studied. Polyacrylonitrile (PAN), poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), and poly(4-vinylpyridine), (P4VP), etc., were chosen as matrix polymers. The resistivity (ρ) of the was 0.37 Ω cm at the content of 20 wt % in the film. When the content of was increased up to 40 wt%, a phase separation of the needle crystals was observed and the ρ value increased. When was dispersed into PAN or PVK, the separation was also observed and the samples showed low conductivity. The uniform films were obtained in the and systems, but the values of ρ were high because of the degradation of the TCNQ salts. Uniform films with the naked eye were obtained in the and systems, and the values of Ω were 0.37, 1.05, and 3.40 Ω cm, respectively. was stable even when dispersed into P4VP. The properties of the composites were influenced by the combination of the TCNQ salts and the polymers. The uniformity and the stability of the composites were necessary to obtain the high conductive composites.

Perfluorovinyl Morpholine and Perfluorovinyl Pyrrolidine with Nucleophiles and Electrophiles

In this study, both monofunctional and bifunctional nucleophiles, as well as the electrophile FNO, are reacted with perfluorovinyl amines. The perfluorovinyl amines CF?CF₂ and CF?CF₂ have been reacted with dimethylamine and diethylamine in the presence of small amounts of water to give CHFC(O)N(CH₃)₂ ( 1 ), CHFC(O)N(CH₃)₂ ( 2 ), and CHFC(O)N(C₂H₅)₂ ( 3 ). With perfluorovinyl pyrrolidine and perfluorovinyl morpholine, ethanolamine gives the cyclized products CHF ( 4 ) and CHF ( 5 ), respectively. Reaction of the vinyl amines with (CH₃)₃SiOCH₂CF₃ in the presence of catalytic amounts of CsF results in the formation of cis- ( 6 ) and trans- ( 7 ) CF?CF(OCH₂CF₃) and cis- ( 8 ) and trans- ( 9 ) CF?CF(OCH₂CF₃). The electrophile FNO reacts slowly with perfluorovinyl pyrrolidine and perfluorovinyl morpholine, and more rapidly with (CF₃)₃CCF?CF₂ to give CF(NO)CF₃ ( 10 ), CF(NO)CF₃ ( 11 ) and (CF₃)₃CF(NO)CF₃ ( 12 ), respectively. Single crystal X-ray analysis is used to confirm the identity of the product obtained from the controlled hydrolysis of the sultone of perfluorovinyl pyrrolidine as the sulfonic acid anhydride C(O)CF₂OS(O)₂OCF₂C(O) ( 13 ). The X-ray crystal structure of perfluorosuccinic acid monohydrate ( 14 ), which is obtained when the perfluorovinyl pyrrolidine sultone is hydrolyzed in excess water, is also reported for the first time.     

Mössbauer Spectroscopic Studies of the Hydroxofluorostannate(IV) Complexes

Mössbauer isomer shifts of ¹¹⁹Sn in a series of complexes K₂Sn(OH)_6-mF_m observed at 78 K were ?0.05, ?0.05, ?0.24, ?0.27 and ?0.40 mm s^?1, respectively, for m=0, 2, 4, 5 and 6.

A Unified Interpretation of Kinetic Data on the Acid-Induced Cleavage and of Product-Analysis Data on Spontaneous Cleavage of the Mono-ol Cation μ-Hydroxo-bis[pentaamminecobalt(III)] ([(NH3)5CoOHCo(NH3)5]5+)

Recent work on the spontaneous (= acid-independent) cleavage of the mono-ol cation, i.e. in Cl^?/ClO and NO/ClO mixed-electrolyte media has established (by analysis of anion-competition experiments) the existence of reactive ion pairs of the mono-ol cation with Cl^? and NO. Their existence must be allowed for in the analysis of the rate data for the acid-induced cleavage (pH 0–1) of the mono-ol cation in these mixed-electrolyte media. Thus, previous data for acidic Cl^?/ClO media have been re-interpreted in this work, and new data for NO/ClO media have been analyzed in the same sense. This analysis removes an apparent discrepancy in the orders of magnitude of ion aggregate stability constants between the mono-ol and similar binuclear cations.

Photoelectrochemistry with Colloidal Semiconductors; Laser Studies of Halide Oxidation in Colloidal Dispersions of TiO2 and α-Fe2O3

Aqueous sols of TiO₂ (anatase, particle radius 25 Å) were excited with (347.1 nm)-laser light and the reaction of valence-band holes with halide ions (X = I^?, Br^?, Cl^?) was investigated. Hole transfer takes place within the duration of the (10 ns)-laser pulse and results in the formation of anion radicals according to the sequence: The quantum yield of X increases in the order Cl < Br < I, attaining 0.8 for I at pH 1. It is affected by pH, halide concentration and the presence of a protective agent for the sol. RuO₂ deposited onto TiO₂ enhances markedly Cl and Br -formation, but has no effect on the yield of I. Laser-photolysis investigation of halide oxidation were also carried out with colloidal Fe₂O₃ (particle radius 600 Å). For I_2?formation, the quantum yield exceeds 0.9 indicating almost quantitative hole scavenging by iodide.     

The addition of methyl radicals to hexafluoroacetone

The reaction of methyl radicals (Me) with hexafluoroacetone (HFA), generated from ditertiary butyl peroxide (dtBP), was studied over the temperature range of 402–433 K and the pressure range of 38–111 torr. The reaction resulted in the following displacement process taking place: where TFA refers to trifluoroacetone. The trifluoromethyl radicals that were generated abstract a hydrogen atom from the peroxide: such that k_6a is given by: where θ = 2.303RT kcal/mol. The interaction of methyl and trifluoromethyl radicals results in the following steps: Product analysis shows that k₁₇/kk = 2.0 ± 0.2 such that k₁₇ = 10^10.4±0.5M^?1 · s^?1. The rate constant k₅ is given by: It is concluded that the preexponential factor for the addition of methyl radicals to ketones is lower than that for the addition of methyl radicals to olefins.

Magnesium chloride supported high mileage catalysts for olefin polymerization. XII. Polymerization of ethylene

Polymerizations of ethylene by the MgCl₂/ethylbenzoate/p-cresol/AlEt₃ TiCl₄-AlEt₃/methyl-p-toluate (CW-catalyst) have been studied. The initially formed active site concentration, [Ti] has a maximum value of 50% of total titanium at 50°C and lower values at other temperatures. The Ti decays rapidly to Ti sites with conc. ca. 10 mol %/mol Ti. The rate constants for four chain transfer processes have been obtained at 50°C: for transfer with AlEt₃, k = 2.1 × 10^?4 s^?1 and k = 4.8 × 10^?4 s^?1; for transfer with monomer, k = 3.6 × 10^?3 (M s)^?1 and K = 8.3 × 10^?3 (M s)^?1; for β-hydride transfer, k = 7.2 × 10^?4 s^?1 and k = 4.9 × 10^?4 s^?1; and transfer with hydrogen, k = 4.0 × 10^?3 torr^1/2 s^? and k = 5.1 × 10^?3 torr^1/2 s^?1. The rate constants for the termination assisted by hydrogen is k = 1.7 (M^1/2 torr^1/2 S)^?1. If monomer is assisting termination as was observed for propylene polymerization, then k = 7.8 (M^3/2 s)^?1. Values of all the rate constants can be higher or lower at other temperatures. Detailed comparisons were made with the results of propylene polymerizations. There are more than four times as many Ti active sites for ethylene polymerization than there are for stereospecific polymerization of propylene; the difference is more than a factor of two for the Ti sites. Certain rate constants are nearly the same for both monomers while others are markedly different. Some of the differences can be explained by stereoelectronic effects.

19F-NMR-spektroskopischer Nachweis und statistische Untersuchung zur Bildung der gemischten Clusteranionen [(Mo6ICl)F]2−, n = 0–7, und Darstellung von (TBA)2[(Mo6I)F]

¹⁹F NMR Spectroscopic Evidence and Calculation of the Statistical Formation of Mixed Cluster Anions [(Mo₆I Cl )F ]^2?, n = 0–7, and Preparation of (TBA)₂[(Mo₆I )F ] The octa-μ₃-iodo-hexafluoro-hexamolybdate(2?)ion [(Mo₆I)F]^2? is prepared for the first time. The system of the 21 innersphere mixed clusters (Mo₆ICl)⁴⁺, n = 0–7 is formed by exchange of innersphere bound Clⁱ against outersphere bound I^a on tempering solid [(Mo₆Cl)I] at 400°C. Prolonged tempering leads to increasing average n values of the mixture, which is converted into the tetrabutylammonium salt (TBA)₂[(Mo₆ICl)F]. Using increments of chemical shifts and integral peak intensities the 54 ¹⁹F-nmr signals of the 21 species (compound n = 8 is absent) are assigned and confirmed by the 2 D-¹⁹F/¹⁹F-COSY spectrum. From the measured intensities the distribution of the different compounds is determined and proves significant deviation from statistical occupation, revealing the preference of isomers with iodine atoms occupying edges of the innersphere cube and discrimination of those sharing diagonals of the faces. Moreover all compounds with n = 3 and 4 are present overaverage in comparison to the others.     

The high temperature oxidation of the methyl side chain of toluene

From the results of order of magnitude analyses, it is concluded that during the oxidation of toluene, radical-atom and radical-radical reactions (1) and (3) play an unusually important and approximately equal role in the formation of benzaldehyde, an intermediate that leads eventually to the complete removal of the side chain. An additional radical-radical system, reaction (2), is shown to be the most likely source of benzyl alcohol observed during toluene oxidation.
