Synthese eines verbrückten π-allyl-chinolin-palladiumchlorid-komplexes

Chloro[N-3′5′-η-(4′-methylpentenyl)quinoline-2]palladium was synthesized; the NMR-spectrum of this compound is helpful in distinguishing the cis/trans-isomers of other non-bridged π-allyl-base-palladium chloride complexes.     

Endor frequencies of randomly oriented triplets by electron spin echo spectroscopy

ENDOR frequencies of randomly oriented triplets have been measured from the fast Fourier transform of electron spin echo envelope modulation. Important experimental conditions are low temperatures, high microwave power and long phase memory time in a proper form of solvent. The technique is exemplified by using diphenylmethylenes in rigid glasses, polycrystalline forms and single crystals of benzophenones.     

The noncumulative effect of methyl substituents on the rate of addition of benzeneselenenyl chloride to olefins1

The rates and products of addition of benzeneselenenyl chloride to ethylene and its six Me substituted derivatives have been determined in methylene chloride at 25°. Unlike the addition of 4-chlorobenzenesulfenyl chloride to this same series of compounds, the effect of Me groups on the rates of addition is not cumulative. Also the regiochemistry of the product is different. For arenesulfenyl chloride additions, products of anti-Markownikoff orientation are formed preferentially under conditions of kinetic control. Under similar conditions regiospecific formation of the Markownikoff adduct is observed for the addition of benzeneselenenyl chloride to methylpropene and 2-methyl-2-butene. These data indicate a difference in both rate and product determining transition states between additions of arenesulfenyl and selenenyl chlorides to alkenes.     

N2O and O3 arctic column amounts from PARIS-IR observations: Retrievals, characterization and error analysis

Ground-based solar absorption infrared spectra were recorded in the Canadian Arctic during the early spring of 2004 using a moderate-resolution Fourier transform spectrometer, the Portable Atmospheric Research Interferometric Spectrometer for the Infrared (PARIS-IR). As part of the Canadian Arctic Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment (ACE) validation campaign, the PARIS-IR instrument recorded solar absorption spectra of the atmosphere from February to March 2004 as the Sun returned to the Arctic Stratospheric Ozone Observatory (AStrO) near Eureka, Nunavut, Canada (80.05°N, 86.42°W). In this paper, we briefly outline the PARIS-IR instrument configuration and data acquisition in the high Arctic. We discuss the retrieval methodology, characterization and error analysis associated with total and partial column retrievals. We compare the PARIS-IR measurements of N₂O and O₃ column amounts with those from the Fourier transform spectrometer (ACE-FTS) onboard the Canadian SCISAT-1 satellite and the ozonesonde data obtained at Eureka during the validation campaign.
