A concise overview is given on mononuclear and dinuclear, bidentate Schiff base ruthenium complexes with different additional ligands and on their applications in various chemical transformations such as Kharasch addition, enol-ester synthesis, alkyne dimerization, olefin metathesis and atom transfer radical polymerization. These new ruthenium complexes, conveniently prepared from commonly available ruthenium compounds, are very stable, exhibit a good tolerance towards organic functionalities, air and moisture and display high activity and chemoselectivity in chemical transformations. Relevant features of coordination chemistry connected with the reaction mechanism and chemoselectivity are also fully described. Since the nature of Schiff bases can be changed in a variety of ways, appealing routes for designing and preparing novel ruthenium complexes can be foreseen in the future. 相似文献
The rheological properties of microfibrillated cellulose (MFC)/nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) suspensions have an important role during processing and mixing. In this work, the process parameters for MFC/NFC production within a microfluidizer (i.e., the size of interaction chamber and number of passes) were varied to investigate the influences on morphology, zeta potential, chemical properties and rheological features including viscosity, creep, strain recovery and yield stress behavior. The stability and appropriate viscosity of the fiber suspensions can be controlled by optimizing the processing conditions, resulting in a reduction in fiber diameter and most negative zeta potential value. The viscosity increased with higher amount of fibrillation by using a smaller chamber or higher number of passes, but intermediate plateau values are characteristic for temporary aggregation and breaking-up of the fiber network. The creep response and yield stress have been described by parameters of the Burger model and Herschel–Bulkley model, respectively, showing a more prominent effect on yield stress of chamber size than number of passes. The network formation leads to lower creep compliance and step-like strain recovery. The transition from gel-like to liquid-like behavior as characterized by the dynamic yield point at a specific strain, is almost independent of the processing conditions. Most important, the total number of passes applied in production can be directly related to the rotational Péclet number, which combines rheological and morphological data. 相似文献
The homoleptic sandwich complex bis(benzene)molybdenum, [Mo(eta6-C6H6)2], was successfully dilithiated by employing an excess of BuLi in the presence of N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (up to 6 equiv each) at slightly elevated temperatures furnishing the highly reactive, ring metalated species [Mo(eta6-C6H5Li)2].tmeda in high yields. Alternatively, this compound was synthesized upon prolonged sonication with 5 equiv of tBuLi/tmeda without heating. An X-ray crystal structure determination revealed a symmetrical, dimeric composition in the solid state, i.e., a formula of [Mo(eta6-C6H5Li)2]2.(thf)6, where the six-membered rings are connected by two pairs of bridging lithium atoms. The synthesis of an elusive ansa-bridged complex failed in the case of a [1]bora and a [1]sila bridge due to the thermal lability of the resulting compounds. Instead, reverse addition of the dilithio precursor to an excess of the appropriate element dihalide facilitated the isolation of several unstrained, 1,1'-disubstituted derivatives, namely, [Mo{eta6-C6H5(BN(SiMe3)2X)}2] (X = Cl, Br) and [Mo{eta6-C6H5(SiiPr2Cl)}2], respectively. However, the incorporation of a less congesting [2]sila bridge was accomplished. In addition to the formation of [Mo{(eta6-C6H5)2Si2Me4}], a molybdenum-containing paracylophane complex was isolated and characterized by means of crystal structure analysis. The ancillary formation of 1 equiv of bis(benzene)molybdenum strongly suggests that this species is generated by deprotonation of the ansa-bridged complex by the dilithiated precursor and subsequent reaction with a second equivalent of the disilane. 相似文献
Different compositions and emulsification protocols were used to prepare stable water-in-oil (w/o) emulsions. Water, mineral oil, and a mixture of Span 80 and Tween 80 surfactants were combined to form emulsions that can be used as reference for electrolyte-free systems. Here, we have proposed emulsions wherein different properties were evaluated. Electrical conductivity measurements indicated that conductivity increases linearly with increasing surfactant content. The emulsions’ flow curves and viscoelastic behaviors were delineated by rheological measurements. Stability studies by centrifugal testing have shown that smaller the surfactant content, lower the stability, for any used stirring speeds. Furthermore, higher the applied mixing rate to make the emulsion, higher the stability, regardless of the amount of surfactant. Electrical field stability analysis showed, for all systems, that critical electric field (CEF) values were dependent on either surfactant amount and emulsion elastic modulus. 相似文献
Hexeneuronic acid (HexA) is formed under pulping conditions from 4-O-methyl-glucuronic acid residues in xylans by methanol elimination. It is usually removed by an acidic washing treatment (A-stage) within the pulp bleaching sequence. Hexeneuronic acid has long been recognized as a source of color generation in pulps, but the chemical structure of the actual chromophoric compounds remained elusive. We report the synthesis of isotopically (13C) labeled HexA model units carrying a label at any of the six carbon atoms. Confirming pertinent literature accounts, it is shown that HexA forms three primary degradation intermediates, 2-furancarboxylic acid, 5-formyl-2-furancarboxylic acid, and formic acid, under mildly acidic conditions, and their formation mechanism is discussed. 2-Furancarboxylic acid is demonstrated to be deformylation product of 5-formyl-2-furancarboxylic acid. The three primary intermediates are colorless and do not represent chromophores themselves. Their mixture, upon thermal or acidic treatment, gives rise to the same chromophores that are also directly formed from HexA. 相似文献
The objective of this work was to develop an industrially relevant olefin metathesis initiator, which circumvents the expensive, patent protected, often cumbersome preparative routes via Grubbs benzylidene complexes. Upon coordination of a Schiff base ligand to a second-generation ruthenium allenylidene complex, the formation of three catalyst isomers was observed. The major isomer was successfully isolated, and tested in a few olefin metathesis reactions. Acids such as HCl and HSiCl(3) were found to boost the metathesis reaction but the in situ formation of a neutral Ru carbyne complex restricted the catalytic capacity. Using the Lewis acid PhSiCl(3), the formation of a carbyne species was avoided, and turnover numbers up to 30,000 were reached in the ring-opening metathesis polymerisation of cycloocta-1,5-diene. 相似文献
A method for the quantitative evaluation of kinetic constants in Ziegler–Natta and metallocene olefin homopolymerizations presented previously (V. Matos, A. G. M. Neto, J. C. Pinto, J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2001 , 79, 2076; V. Matos, A. G. M. Neto, M. Nele, J. C. Pinto, J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2002 , 86, 3226) is extended to allow for estimation of model parameters in copolymerization reactions. The method is used to estimate kinetic parameters of ethylene/propylene copolymerization during the synthesis of high impact poly(propylene) in a train of cascade reactors. Process models were developed to describe the reaction rate profile, reactor solubles, molecular weight distribution of the total polymer, xylene solubles, and insoluble polymer. The process models and the estimated parameters were inserted into a process simulator that successfully described the industrial process.
Summary: The present paper analyzes the production of poly(methyl methacrylate) – PMMA – nanoparticles loaded with benzophenone-3 through miniemulsion polymerization. The obtained product is homogeneous and stable, allowing for preparation of photo-protective formulations. It is observed in particular that bezophenone-3 interacts with the reacting system, promoting the growth of the PMMA chains produced in miniemulsion. 相似文献
Summary: This work reports the kinetic behavior and the molecular properties of obtained copolymers during vinyl acetate and methyl methacrylate suspension copolymerizations in presence of doxorubicin. The obtained spherical particles are intended for use as chemoembolization agents. It is shown that the presence of doxorubicin in the reaction medium promotes significant changes in the copolymerization kinetics and final molecular weight averages of the polymer product. 相似文献
