Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Bis(nitrate)- bis(N,N''''-dimethyl-N,N''''-dibenzenyl-urea)uranyl(Ⅱ)

1 INTRODUCTION Tri-butyl phosphate (TBP) has been widely used as the extraction reagent in U-Th fuel to separate uranium from thorium. But di-butyl phos- phate (DBP) and butyl phosphate (MBP), the radio- lytic products of TBP, exhibit some coordinated ability to the fission elements, such as Zr and Nb. The substitutes for TBP have being studied for several decades[1～4]. The physical and chemical properties of amides are similar to those of TBP and they selectively extract U(Ⅵ…

X-ray diffraction analysis of nonequilibrium states in crystals: observation of an unstable conformer in flash-cooled crystals

Some molecules with a molecular skeleton similar to that of stilbenes and azobenzenes show orientational disorder in the crystals. If the disorder is dynamic, a conformational interconversion takes place through a pedal motion. In this study X-ray diffraction analyses of (E)-stilbene (1) and azobenzene (2) were carried out at various temperatures. We succeeded in observing thermodynamic nonequilibrium states that were generated by fast freezing of the conformational interconversion at low temperatures. The populations of the two conformers in crystals of 1 at 90 K varied with the cooling rate. Flash cooling of a crystal of 2 from room temperature to 90 K made it possible to observe the minor unstable conformer that does not exist in the equilibrium state at the same temperature.     

正庚烷在超稳Y沸石(USY)负载超强酸催化剂上加氢异构化

The Pt-bearing SO₄^2-/ZrO₂ superacid catalysts supported on ultra stable Y (USY) zeolite were prepared by impregnation and characterized by X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption and Hammett indicators. Their catalytic activities were evaluated in the hydroisomerization of n-heptane with an atmospheric fixed-bed reactor. The catalysts possessed a high surface area, superacidity and well maintained pore structure of USY support. The supported catalysts with a suitable SO₄^2-/ZrO₂ loading exhibited a higher catalytic activity and selectivity than the unsupported SO₄^2-/ZrO₂ catalyst or the Pt supported on USY catalyst without superacid. At the reaction temperature of 220 ℃, over the catalyst with a Pt loading of 0.8wt% and ZrO₂ loading of 10wt%, the conversion of n-heptane could be as high as 35.2% with a selectivity of 87.9% for isomerization products.

Characterization of organometallic coordinative cluster compounds of silver by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) was successfully applied to characterize the organosilver coordinative cluster compounds, silver phenylacetylide and three silver thiolates, namely, silver tertiary butylthiolate, silver 2,6-dimethylbenzenethiolate, and silver 2, 6-dichlorobenzenethiolate. Samples and dithranol matrix were finely dispersed in 1:1 tetrahydrofuran (THF)/chloroform (CHCl(3)) mixed solvent. In most cases the monomer units remained intact during ionization, and the oligomeric molecular ions were produced through silver cationization, with a general molecular ion formula [nM + Ag](+). This was further verified by the relative abundances of the isotopic peaks within the molecular ion clusters, which were in close agreement with those theoretically calculated for nM cationized with one silver ion. In the case of silver 2, 6-dichlorobenzenethiolate, in addition to the dominant [nM + Ag](+) peaks, weak peaks corresponding to the successive losses of hydrogen chloride molecules were observed.

Pi-face-selective Diels-Alder reactions of 3,4-di-tert-butylthiophene 1-oxide and 1-imide and formation of 1,2-thiazetidines

3,4-Di-tert-butylthiophene 1-oxide (1a) reacted with a series of electron-deficient alkenic dienophiles at its syn-pi-face relating to the S=O bond to give [4+2] adducts in excellent yields. The 1-oxide 1a also reacted even with angle-strained dienophiles acenaphthylene and norbornene at its syn-pi-face to afford [4+2] adducts; in the latter case, norbornene reacted exclusively at its exo-pi-face. The oxide 1a reacted with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to produce dimethyl 4,5-di-tert-butylphthalate in high yield with spontaneous extrusion of SO from the initial adduct even at room temperature. Similarly, 3,4-di-tert-butylthiophene 1-(p-toluenesulfonyl)imide (3a) reacted with alkenic dienophiles at its syn-pi-face relating to the S=N bond to give [4+2] adducts in good yields. The reaction of 3a with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD) afforded a 1,2-thiazetidine 12a, the first example of S-unoxidized 1,2-thiazetidine, in good yield, through rearrangement of the initial [4+2] adduct. The molecular structure of 12a is discussed on the basis of the X-ray crystallographic analysis. Comparison of the foregoing reactions leads to the conclusion that the 1-oxide 1a is more reactive as a diene than the 1-imide 3a, which is more reactive than 3,4-di-tert-butylthiophene 1,1-dioxide. The origin of the syn-pi-face selectivities of 1a and 3a in Diels-Alder reactions is discussed in terms of the orbital mixing rule and steric effect and also based on B3LYP/6-31G(d) calculations.
