Densities,Ultrasonic Speeds,Viscosities and Refractive Indices of Binary Mixtures of Benzene with Benzyl Alcohol,Benzonitrile, Benzoyl Chloride and Chlorobenzene at 303.15 K

Densities,ρ, ultrasonic speeds, u, viscosities,η, and refractive indices, n, of pure benzene, benzyl alcohol (BA), benzonitrile (BN), benzoyl chloride (BC), chlorobenzene (CB) and their thirty six binary mixtures, with benzene as common component, were measured at 303.15 K over the entire mole fraction range. From these experimental data the values of deviations in ultrasonic speed, △u, isentropic compressibility, △k_s,excess acoustic impedance, Z^E, deviation in viscosity, Dh, and excess Gibbs free energy of activation of viscous flow, G^*E, and partial molar isentropic compressibility, Kφ,2⁰ of BA, BN, BC and CB in benzene were computed. The variation of these derived functions with composition of the mixtures suggested the increased cohesion (molecular order) in the solution and that interaction (A-B)＞(A-A) or (B-B).Moreover, theoretical prediction of ultrasonic speed, viscosity and refractive index of all the four binary mixtures was made on the basis of empirical and semi-empirical relations by using the experimental values of the pure components. Comparison of theoretical results with the experimental values was made in order to assess the suitability of these relations in reproducing the experimental values of u, η and n. Also, molecular radii of pure liquids and the average molecular radii of binary mixtures were evaluated using the corresponding refractive indices of pure liquids and binary mixtures. The average molecular radii of binary mixtures were found to be additive with respect to mole fraction of the pure component.     

Ag-mediated synthesis of six-membered N-heterocycles

Abstract

One of the highly emerging and an important aspect of organic chemistry is the metal catalyzed synthesis of heterocycles. The methods used earlier for the synthesis of heterocycles were significant in the organic synthesis and developing cost-effective, improved and facial methods were beneficial to construct the complex architectures. For the both stereoselective and regioselective synthesis of six-membered nitrogen containing heterocycles, cyclic reactions that are Ag-mediated have known to be very efficient. The present review covers the applications of Ag in the formation of six-membered nitrogen containing heterocycles.     

1,1,1,1-Tetrakis(o-fluorophenylamino)silane tris[titanium(IV) chloride]. Evidence for a new titanium cation [Ti2Cl7]+

Si(NHC₆H₄F-o)₄ · 3TiCl₄ (1) has been obtained from the disproportionation of (CF₃CH₂O)₃SiNHC₆H₄F-o and TiCl₄ in petroleum ether (40–60 °C) at –10 °C. The analytical (elemental analysis, molar conductance) and spectral (i.r., ¹H- and ¹⁹F-n.m.r.) data suggested that (1) behaves as [Si(NHC₆H₄F-o)₄ · Ti₂Cl₇]⁺ [TiCl₅]^–. The presence of these ions has been confirmed by characterising the products of metathetical reactions of (1) with R₄NX (R = Bu and Et; X = I and Br) and with AgNO₃. The data suggest the presence of a new titanium cation [Ti₂Cl₇]⁺.
