Clathrates of organic onium halides,V: preparation of new clathrates and structure of the 1-propanol inclusion of a bis-quinuclidinium salt

Organic onium salts (3–15) are prepared and their inclusion capacity towards solvent molecules is investigated. The crystal structure of the1·propanol·H₂O clathrate ofN,N-[5-tert-butyl-1,3-phenylenebis(methylene)]bis(quinuclidinium)dibromide (4) is reported and compared with the X-ray structures of related clathrates described earlier. Supplementary Data: Details of the crystal structure are available on request from the Fachinformationszentrum Energie-Physik-Mathematik, D-7517 Eggenstein, Leopoldshafen 2, by quoting the depository number CSD 50883, the names of the authors, and the journal citation.     

Call for fused silica tubing furnishing tight press-fit connections

Recently introduced fused silica, primarily of the high temperature type, no longer allows the formation of a reliable press-fit seal. Attempts to tighten the connection with various kinds of glue proved unsatisfactory. Manufacturers of fused silica tubing are urged to devote more attention to the problem.     

Cycloaddition von benzothiet an oxime,oximether und oximester

Benzothiete 1 generates by thermal ring opening an 8π electron system 2 which undergoes [8π + 2π] cycloaddition reactions with the oxime systems 3a-g . In accordance with the FMO theory the 1,3-thiazine derivatives 4a-g are formed in a regiospecific and 4f additionally in a stereospecific manner. The O-acylated adducts 4h-j enter the same cycloaddition; however, an elimination reaction 4 ← 5, 6 can provoke the addition of a second benzothiete, yielding the tetracyclic compounds 7j , and 8i,j .
