Addition conjuguee d'equivalents d'acyles aux cyclohexen-2 ones et a la Δ1(9) octalone-2: Synthese de dicetones 1–4.

The synthesis of 3-acetylcyclohexanones $\text{11}$, $\text{12}$, $\text{13}$ has been realized by conjugate addition of lithiated cyanohydrin ether $\text{1a}$ to 2-cyclohexenones $\text{2}$, $\text{3}$, $\text{4}$ in THF-HMPA, even if 3-substituted. 3-benzoylcyclohexanones $\text{14}$, $\text{15}$, $\text{16}$ are obtained from $\text{1b}$ and $\text{2}$, $\text{3}$, $\text{4}$ in THF with excellent yields.     

First structural characterization of binary AsIII and SbIII azides

The highly explosive molecules As(N(3))(3) and Sb(N(3))(3) were obtained in pure form by the reactions of the corresponding fluorides with (CH(3))(3)SiN(3) in SO(2) and purification by sublimation. The crystal structures and (14)N NMR, infrared, and Raman spectra were determined, and the results compared to ab initio second-order perturbation theory calculations. Whereas Sb(N(3))(3) possesses a propeller-shaped, pyramidal structure with perfect C(3) symmetry, the As(N(3))(3) molecule is significantly distorted from C(3) symmetry due to crystal packing effects.     

Physicochemical Principles of Extraction with Supercritical Gases

The present review considers some physicochemical properties of fluid mixtures that are of importance for fluid extraction and supercitical fluid chromatography (SFC). Firstly, the important types of phase diagrams are treated, the occurrence of solid phases also being considered in some simple cases. Specific examples are given of mixtures of a highly volatile component I (e.g. CO₂, C₂H₆) with a relatively involatile component II (e.g. squalane) of very different molecular size, shape, structure, and/or polarity, and it is shown how the rather complicated types of phase diagrams can be calculated and correlated. The importance of fluid mixtures extends far beyond the fields of science and technology reviewed.
