Kinetics and mechanism of nitration of aromatic compounds using trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA)/NaNO2, TCCA-N,N-dimethyl formamide (TCCA-DMF)/NaNO2, and TCCA-N,N-dimethyl acetamide (TCCA-DMA)/NaNO2 under acid-free and Vilsmeier-Haack conditions. Reactions followed second-order kinetics with a first-order dependence on [Phenol] and [Nitrating agent] ([TCCA], [(TCCA-DMF)], or [(TCCA-DMA)] >> [NaNO2]). Reaction rates accelerated with the introduction of electron-donating groups and retarded with electron-withdrawing groups, but did not fit well into the Hammett's theory of linear free energy relationship or its modified forms like Brown-Okamoto or Yukawa-Tsuno equations. Rate data were analyzed by Charton's multiple linear regression analysis. Isokinetic temperature (β) values, obtained from Exner's theory for different protocols, are 403.7 K (TCCA-NaNO2), 365.8 K (TCCA-DMF)/NaNO2, and 358 K (TCCA-DMA)/NaNO2. These values are far above the experimental temperature range (303-323 K), indicating that the enthalpy factors are probably more important in controlling the reaction. 相似文献
In this paper, boundary regions of 1-D linear piecewise-smooth discontinuous maps are examined analytically. It is shown that, under certain parameter conditions, maps exhibit atypical orbits like a continuum of periodic orbits and quasi-periodic orbits. Further, we have derived the conditions under which such phenomenon occurs. The paper also illustrates that there exists a specific parameter region where as the parameter is varied, there is a transition from stable to unstable periodic orbits. Moreover, we have derived an expression for the value of parameter at which this transition from stable to unstable periodic orbits occurs. Additionally, the dynamics concerning this value of parameter is also given.
Research in the field of organic photovoltaics has gained considerable momentum in the last two decades owing to the need for developing low-cost and efficient energy harvesting systems. Elegant molecular architectures have been designed, synthesized and employed as active materials for photovoltaic devices thereby leading to a better molecular structure-device property relationship understanding. In this perspective, we outline new macromolecular scaffolds that have been designed within the purview of each of the three fundamental processes involving light harvesting, charge separation and charge transport. 相似文献
AbstractN, N’-dimethyl formamide (DMF) mediated Vilsmeier–Haack (VH) adducts with 1,3,5-triazine compunds such as trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA) and trichlorotriazine (TCTA) were prepared by replacing classical oxy chlorides POCl3, and SOCl2, which were explored as efficient catalysts for the transesterification of β-ketoesters. The prepared (TCCA/DMF) and (TCTA/DMF) adducts improved greenery of the classical Vilsmeier–Haack reagents (POCl3/DMF), and (SOCl2/DMF), and demonstrated their better efficient catalytic ativity. Reaction times were in the range: 3.5 to 6.5?hr (SOCl2/DMF); 2.8–5.2?hr (POCl3/DMF); 2.5–5.2?hr (TCCA/DMF) and 2.5–5.0?hr (TCTA/DMF) catalytic systems. Ultrasonically (US) assisted protocols with these reagents further reduced the reaction times (two to three times), while microwave assisted (MW) protocols with these reagents were much more effective. The reactions could be completed in only few seconds (less than a minute) in MWassisted protocols as compared to US assited reactions, followed by good product yields. 相似文献
We report the syntheses and properties of thienopyrrole based unsymmetrical and extended heteroacenes, which are isoelectronic with heptacene (30π) and nonacene (38π), respectively. Optical and electrochemical properties of these seven and nine rings fused systems are studied. The optoelectronic properties of the syn and anti-isomers of the unsymmetrical heteroacenes are also compared. The influence of the position of the heteroatoms in the fused corona, upon the optical and electrochemical properties, is rationalized based on the contributions from the benzenoid vs. quinonoid-type structures of these molecules. 相似文献
