Nitro compounds as alkylating reagents in friedel-crafts conditions : Reaction of 2-nitropropane with benzene

Friedel-Crafts reaction of benzylic or tertiary nitro compounds with benzene gave normal alkylation products. Similarly, 2-nitropropane (2-NP) gave cumene (1) which underwent further transformation affording a mixture whose behaviour with time was investigated : results were consistent with oxidative formation of the cumyl carbonium ion (7').     

Hydroxybromierung und Methoxybromierung von (Z)-Cycloocten

In addition totrans-2-bromocyclooctanol andtrans-1,2-dibromocyclooctane,cis-4-bromocyclooctanol,cis-1,4-dibromocyclooctane,trans-1,4-dibromocyclooctane, and (Z)-5-bromocyclooctene are obtained, when (Z)-cyclooctene is treated with N-bromosuccinimide in the presence of water. Similarly the methoxybromination of (Z)-cyclooctene gives transanular products.     

Interactions intramoléculaires en série cyclohexanique: Partie II. Spectres photoélectroniques de chloro-2 cyclohexanones

The photoelectronic spectra of cis-2-chloro, 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone and cis-2-methyl-2-chlorocyclohexanone have been analysed. These analyses have been used in an investigation into the nature of the orbital interactions in these molecules, and into the dependence of these interactions on the axial or equatorial position of the halogen atom. The preferential conformations of 2-chlorocyclohexanone and 4,4-dimethyl-2-chlorocyclo-hexanone have thus been obtained.     

Integral intensities of the absorption bands of the skeletal vibrations of substituted furocoumarins

Conclusions The IR spectra of 5- and 8-hydroxyfurocoumarins and their esters, 5,8-disubstituted furocoumarins containing hydroxyl, methoxyl, and alkoxyl groups, and 4,5-dihydrofurocoumarins differ with respect to the intensity and number of the bands in the 1630–1500 cm^–1 region of the spectrum. The integral intensities of the absorption bands in this frequency region differ markedly in the derivatives mentioned.Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, Vol. 5, No. 5, pp. 355–359, 1969     

O,O-dialkyl-S-(1-silatranylalkyl) dithiophosphates

Conclusions The reactions of 1-(3-chloropropyl)silatrane with potassium O,O-diethyl dithiophosphate gave O,O-diethyl-S-(1-silatranylpropyl) dithiophosphate. O,O-Diethyl- and O,O-dipropyl-S-(1-silatranylmethyl) dithiophosphates were synthesized by the tranesterification of O,O-diethyl-and O,O-dipropyl-S-(trimethoxysilylmethyl) dithiophosphates by tris(2-hydroxyethyl)amine.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1882–1884, August, 1987.     

Untersuchungen an Alkylmetallalkoxiden der Elemente Aluminium,Gallium und Indium. III. Eigenschaften und Schwingungsspektren von Dialkylgallium- und Indiumalkoxiden

Studies on Alkyl Metal Alkoxides of Aluminium, Gallium, and Indium. III. Properties and Vibrational Spectra of Dialkylgallium- and Indium Alkoxides The preparation and the properties of dialkyl metal alkoxides R₂MOR′ (with R = CH₃, CD₃, C₂H₅; R′ = CH₃, CD₃ and M = Ga, In) are described. The vibrational data (IR and Raman) of the trimeric methyl derivatives point to puckered six-membered M₃O₃-ring systems.     

Rotation about the exocyclic carbon-carbon double bond of amino dienes of the indolo[2,3-a]-and benzo[a]quinolizidine series

Quinolizidines containing an exocyclic double bond at C-2 (1,2) give on mild oxidation the amino dienes (3,4), as mixtures of geometric isomers with respect to the exocyclic double bond. The free enthalpy of activation for the rotation about the double bond has been estimated by NMR.     

Non-radiative decay processes in isolated SO2 molecules excited within the first allowed absorption band (2500–3200 Å)

New and previously published SO₂ fluorescence emission data related to non-radiative decay processes are considered in light of the recent observations of Brus and McDonald. All the present data are consistent with the previous conclusion of Mettee that non-radiative processes in SO₂ singlet photochemistry are unimportant. It appears that any small inefficiency in the emission of light quanta for SO₂ excited at short wavelengths (2650 A) is largely due to the population of a second very short-lived state which is quenched effectively even at pressures down to 1 μ. The very low efficiency of quanta production which we observed at long wavelengths (3020 Å) appears to have its origin not only in the second easily quenched state, but more importantly, in the diffusional loss of the long-lived singlet which for these conditions has a 20-fold greated lifetime than was expected previously.     

Conformational energies of cyclenes

An universal function for non-bonded interactions, which takes into account the relative orientation of the bonds is considered in calculating the conformational energies of cycloalkenes and cycloalkadienes. A comparison is made with previous results obtained by using usual 6-exp functions for non-bonded interactions.     

Chalkogenolat-lonen und ihre Derivate. I. Darstellung und Eigenschaften salzartiger Chalkogenophenolate

Chalcogenolates and their Derivatives. I. Syntheses and Properties of Ionic Chalcogenophenolates The syntheses and properties of ionic chalcogenophenolates are described. Using liquid ammonia as solvent the alkali chalcogenophenolates M[EPh] (M = Na, K; E = Se, Te; Ph = C₆H₅) have been synthesized via reduction of the diphenyl dichalcogenides with alkali metals. Similarly, the tetraphenylphosphonium chalcogenophenolates [Ph₄P][EPh] (E = S, Se, Te) have been obtained by reacting alkali chalcogenophenolates with tetraphenylphosphonium chloride.
