Novel solid-phase synthesis of 1,2-dialkoxyindoles

[reaction: see text] A novel solid-phase synthesis of 1,2-dialkoxyindoles on SynPhase lanterns is described. A unique C-C bond formation involving a nucleophilic displacement of a solid-bound aryl fluorine by dimethyl malonate afforded the arylnitro methyl ester, which upon treatment with tin(II) chloride dihydrate gave the N-hydroxyindolone. Alkylation of the N-hydroxyindolones afforded the corresponding N-hydroxy-2-alkoxyindoles, which were further alkylated to give the 1,2-dialkoxyindole. A library of 64 (8R(1) x 8R(2)) discrete 1,2-dialkoxyindoles was prepared using a color encoding technique on SynPhase A-series lanterns.     

Synthesis and formulation of vinyl-containing polyacids for improved light-cured glass-ionomer cements

Vinyl-containing poly(acrylic acid-co-itaconic acid) copolymers were synthesized and used to formulate light-curable cements containing reactive glass fillers (Fuji II LC). The conditions for light curing were studied and optimized. Effects of molecular weight (MW), grafting ratio, comonomer, liquid composition, powder/liquid (P/L) ratio, glass powder and aging were evaluated. The results show that the vinyl-containing glass-ionomer cements (GICs) prepared in this study exhibit higher compressive strength (CS, 225.6 MPa), diametral tensile strength (DTS, 28.4 MPa) and much higher flexural strength (FS, 116.4 MPa), as compared to commercial Fuji II LC GIC (186.6 in CS, 19.1 in DTS and 57.1 in FS). The optimal light-exposure time was found to be around 10 min, and concentrations of CQ and DC were 0.5% (by weight) and 1.0%, respectively. Effects of MW, grafting ratio, P/L ratio and content of polymer in the liquid formulation were significant. The highest strengths were found for the optimal formulations where the MW was 15,000 (weight average), grafting ratio 25 mol%, P/L ratio 2.7 and liquid composition 50:20:30. During aging, the cement showed an increase of strength over the first week and then no change for a month. SEM analysis suggests that more integrated microstructures and smaller glass particles can lead to higher FS and higher polymer content in GICs leads to tough fracture surface and plastic deformation.     

Synthesis of N-methyl-3-aza[10] paracyclophane: A rigid analog of phenethylamine

The synthesis of N-methyl-3-aza[10]paracyclophane is reported which represents the first example of this ring system being formed via an acyloin reaction. This 3-aza[10]paraeyclophane ring system behaves physiochemically inbetween the normal [9]- and [10]paracyclophane ring systems. Reductive desulfurization of N-methyl-3-aza[10]paracyclophane-6-ethylene thioketal in ethanol provides a small amount of the title compound and an unexpected, ring-opened product, N-ethyl-N-methyl-p-heptylphenethylamine. A possible mechanism for the ring-opening process is suggested.

Synthesis, crystal structure and properties of K2Ta2S10: A novel ternary tantalum polysulfide with TaS8 polyhedra forming infinite anionic chains

The new ternary alkali tantalum polysulfide K₂Ta₂S₁₀ has been synthesized by reacting TaS₂ with an in situ formed melt of K₂S₃ and S at 773 K. The compound crystallizes with four formula units in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n (No. 14) with lattice parameters of . The structure contains two different zigzag chain anions [TaS₅]⁻, running parallel to the crystallographic b-axis separated by potassium cations. The two crystallographically independent tantalum atoms are in a distorted bi-capped trigonal prismatic environment of eight sulfur atoms which was never observed before. The TaS₈ polyhedra share three S atoms on each side to form the anionic chains. The compound was characterized with FIR and Raman spectroscopy.     

The reaction of 1,2-dilithiotetrafluorobenzene with group V halides

Although the arsenic containing analogue of triptycene, 5,10-$\text{o}$-benzenoarsanthrene $\text{A}$ (E=As) was isolated some time ago [1] the related derivatives of antimony and bismuth are unknown. We now find that when 1,2-diiodotetrafluorobenzene is treated with methyllithium at -78/dg, to afford the little studied dilithiotetrafluorobenzene [2], and the appropriate metal chloride is added to the resulting solution, perfluorinated analogues of $\text{A}$ (E = As, Sb, or Bi) are obtained in good yield. These are stable volatile solids.

     

Application of Iodide Ion Selective Electrode to the Study of Stepwise Formation Constant and Solubility Product of Lead Iodide

Iodide ion-selective electrode were studied, prepared and applied for the complex formations and solubility product determination. The thermodynamic formation constant of PbI⁺ and the solubility product of PbI₃ were found to be 54 and 9.2 × 10^?9, respectively. The formation constant of PbNO₃⁺ was calculated to be 4.6 from the different formation constant of PbI⁺ in perchlorate and nitrate media.     

Carbon anode materials from polysiloxanes for lithium ion batteries

Three kinds of silicon-containing disordered carbons have been prepared by pyrolysis of polysiloxanes with different amounts of phenyl side groups. X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electrochemical capacity measurements were performed to study their behaviors. Graphite crystallites, micropores, and silicon species affect their electrochemical performances. All of them present high reversible capacities, >372 mAh/g. Since the graphite crystallites are very small, they contribute very little to reversible capacity. The number of micropores produced by gas emission during the heat-treatment process decides whether they exhibit reversible capacity. Si mainly exists in the form C–Si–O and influences the irreversible capacity. There is no evident capacity fading in the first ten cycles, indicating promising properties for these disordered carbons.
