铜催化下格氏试剂与酰卤的选择性偶合: 直链酮化合物的合成

在一般情况下,格氏试剂与酰卤偶合反应难以控制在酮阶段,往往得到叔醇。在较低温度下有机铜试剂与酰卤偶合可高产率地得到酮,所以用固体铜盐CuX(X=Cl、Br、I)作为格氏试剂与酰卤偶合的催化剂,可以提高反应的选择性,从而提高酮的产率。但固体铜盐的催化反应仅适合于空间位阻较大的脂肪酮和某些芳香酮的制备,对于直链脂肪酮的制备则产率很低。我们采用可溶性铜络合物Li_2Cucl_4(四氯合铜酸锂)等作催化剂,在均相溶液中反应,有效地提高了催化效果及反应的选择性,从而使格氏试剂与酰卤的偶合反应成功地用于直链脂肪酮的制备,产率良好。     

Structures and hardness of ethyl halides and ethyl tosylate

Ab initio calculations (RHF) of EtX molecules (X=F, Cl, Br, I, or OTs) were carried out with the use of different basis sets. Total charges on the atoms in the compounds under study were determined by Mulliken's, NPA, and Bader's methods, and a comparison of these values was performed. For all EtX compounds, a topological analysis of the electron density was carried out within the framework of Bader's theory, and the global and relative local hardnesses of the above-mentioned ethylating agents were estimated.

Co-deposition of Copper and Tin from Acidic Sulfate Solutions Containing Polyether Laprol 2402C: The Effect of Halides

Voltammetry and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy data show micromolar amounts of halides to noticeably affect co-deposition of copper and tin from acidic sulfate solutions containing polyether Laprol 2402C as the surface-active substance. The reduction of Cu(II) slows down and that of Sn(II) accelerates in the series Cl^– < Br^– < I^–. Compounds on the surface of bronze coatings are oxides of Cu(I) and Sn(II) and halides of Cu(I).     

Palladium catalyzed ligand-free Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of benzylic halides with aryl boronic acids under mild conditions

A highly efficient Suzuki cross-coupling reaction between benzylic halides and aryl boronic acids using palladium chloride as catalyst in acetone:water (3:1) as the solvent system has been developed. High yields of products, mild reaction conditions and short reaction times in the absence of ligand are important features of this method.     

The Henicosaphosphide Iodides of Potassium and Rubidium,K4P21I and Rb4P21I

The novel ternary polyphosphides M₄P₂₁I (M = K, Rb) have been synthesized from the elements in single crystalline form, representing further examples for the formation of mixed crystals between simple salts and binary phosphides. They form as ruby‐red platelets and dark‐red prisms, respectively, and are only slightly sensitive to moisture and oxygen. The compounds are isotypic (Ccmm (no 63); Z = 4; oP104; K₄P₂₁I: a = 12.853Å; b = 21.795Å; c = 9.748Å; 1168 hkl, R = 0.033; Rb₄P₂₁I: a = 13.281Å; b = 21.868Å; c = 9.771Å; 777 hkl, R = 0.053) and feature corrugated 2D networks formed from two different types of polymerized P₇ units. The networks form large cavities filled by M⁺ and I^‐ ions. Zigzag chains of condensed trigonal M₆ prisms, centered by the I^‐ anions, separate the polyphosphide nets. The mean homoatomic P‐P bond length (d = 2.216Å) corresponds to a P‐P single bond. However, the individual P‐P distances vary with position and function (2.126 ‐ 2.247Å) and these are compared with those of the isolated P₂₁^‐3 anion.     

Electrical conductivities of halide salts in aqueous formamide solutions

The electrical conductivities of sodium chloride and sodium iodide solutions in formamide-water mixtures of different composition have been measured at 25°C. From these data, the limiting equivalent conductances for these salts have been determined. The correspondingWalden products are compared together with the one reported for sodium bromide in the same solvent mixtures, and they are analysed as functions of the anion size. Further, the limiting ionic equivalent conductances are estimated for the different ions. The variation of the ionicWalden products with solvent composition is discussed in terms of ionic solvation and solvent structure.

Elektrische Leitfähigkeit von Halogensalzen in wäßrigen Formamid-Lösungen

Zusammenfassung Es wurden die elektrischen Leitfähigkeiten von Natriumchlorid- und Natriumjodidlösungen in Formamid-Wasser-Mischungen verschiedener Zusammensetzung bei 25°C gemessen. Aus diesen Daten wurden die Grenzäquivalenzleitfähigkeiten für diese Salze bestimmt. Die entsprechendenWalden-Produkte wurden mit den für Natriumbromid in den gleichen Lösungsmittelgemischen berichteten verglichen und hinsichtlich der Anionengrößen analysiert. Außerdem wurden die ionischen Grenzäquivalenzleitfähigkeiten für die einzelnen Ionen abgeschätzt. Die Variation der ionischenWalden-Produkte mit der Lösungsmittelzusammensetzung wurde bezüglich Ionensolvatation und Lösungsmittelstruktur diskutiert.

     

Freezing points,osmotic coefficients,and activity coefficients of some salts in ethylene carbonate: A high dielectric constant solvent without hydrogen bonding

The freezing points, conductivities, and densities of NaI, KI, CsI, Bu₄NCl, Bu₄NBr, Bu₄NI, Et₄NBr, and Pr₄NBr (where Et = ethyl, Pr = propyl, and Bu =n-butyl) in ethylene carbonate have been measured. Osmotic and activity coefficients were calculated from the results. All of the salts studied are strong electrolytes. The trends in the osmotic coefficients of the alkali metal iodides are NaI>KI>CsI, showing that Na⁺ is more solvated by ethylene carbonate than Cs⁺. For the tetraalkylammonium halides, the order of osmotic coefficients are Et₄NBrPr₄NBrBu₄NCl>Bu₄NBr>Bu₄NI. This is the same order as observed in two other high-dielectric-constant solvents, water andN-methylacetamide. The results indicate that the smaller anions are more solvated than the larger anions in ethylene carbonate in contrast to the usual behavior of dipolar aprotic (basic) solvents, such as dimethyl sulfoxide.     

Synthesis,crystal structure,magnetism, and absorption spectra of A2UX5 Type Halides (A = K,Rb; X = Cl,Br, I)

The ternary uranium(III) halides A₂UX₅ (A = K, Rb; X = Cl, Br, I) have been prepared from the binary components AX and UX₃ in sealed tantalum containers. According to their Guinier X-ray powder patterns, they all crystallize with the K₂PrCl₅/Y₂HfS₅ type of structure. Lattice constants for ambient temperature are reported. Single-crystal structure refinemens were undertaken for K₂UI₅ and Rb₂UCl₅. Magnetic susceptibility data were recorded with a SQUID magnetometer from liquid helium to room temperature. One-dimensional (intrachain) and three-dimensional antiferromagnetic ordering occur at low temperatures dependent upon the U³⁺? U³⁺ distance. Absorption spectra were recorded between 4 000 and 28 000 cm^?1. They show f—f transitions typical for U³⁺ and, depending on the halide, very strong f—d transitions above 14 000 to 15 000 cm^?1, respectively.
