New catalytic systems based on fluorine-containing titanium(iv) alkoxides for the synthesis of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene and olefin elastomers

The catalytic activity of the systems based on titanium(iv) alkoxides (Ti(OPrⁱ)₄, Ti(OPrⁱ)₂(OCH(CF₃)₂)₂, and Ti(OCH(CF₃)₂)₄) and mixtures of alkylaluminum chlorides (Et₂AlCl or Et₃Al₂Cl₃) with dibutylmagnesium in ethylene polymerization and ethylene copolymerization with propylene and 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene was studied. Ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene with the molecular weight reaching 4.9 · 10⁶ Da was found to be formed in the homopolymerization reaction, whereas copolymerization gives ter-copolymers containing propylene (up to 35 mol.%) and 5-ethylidene-2-norbornene (4.3 mol.%) units.

ChemInform Abstract: Explaining Stability of Transition Metal Carbides — and Why TcC Does Not Exist.

The formation of transition metal (M) carbides M_xC_y and trends of their stability are systematically investigated using the USPEX code within the DFT.     

Supramolecular catalytic systems based on 1, 4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane,its alkylated quaternary derivatives,and lanthanum nitrate

Spectrophotometry was used to study the catalytic effects of the systems composed of N-monoand N, N-dialkylated 1, 4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octanes and lanthanum nitrate on the hydrolysis rate of O-alkyl O-4-nitrophenyl chloromethylphosphonates (Alk = Et, Buⁿ, and n-hexyl). The mechanism of action and efficiency of the catalytic system depend on the structure of the heterocycle, its propensity to aggregation and complexation with the lanthanum cation, and the relative content of the components in solution. The maximum catalytic effect (a ～115-fold increase in the hydrolysis rate constant) was achieved in micellar solutions of the cationic monoalkylated derivative of 1, 4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane and lanthanum nitrate.
