Studies on the thermotropic liquid crystalline polycarbonates. II. Synthesis and properties of fully aromatic liquid crystalline polycarbonates

Four series of fully aromatic polycarbonates were prepared by using melt polycondensation from various novel phenylene diphenyl dicarbonates: 1,4-phenylenc diphenyl dicarbonate, 1,3-phenylene diphenyl dicarbonate, methyl-1,4-phenylene diphenyl dicarbonate, and chloro-1,4-phenylene diphenyl dicarbonate with various diols—4,4′-biphenyl diol, hydroquinone, 2,7-naphthalene diol and 1,5-naphthalene diol, respectively. The thermotropic liquid crystalline properties of synthesized polycarbonates were investigated by: (1) examination of the melt birefringence and stir opalescence by a polarizing microscope equipped with a heating stage, (2) characterization by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and (3) analysis of the wide angle x-ray diffraction. It was found that the 1,3-phenylene unit is compensated for the nonlinearity of the carbonate group, and polycarbonates which contain this bent shape unit showed excellent wide mesophase transition in this study. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Retention characteristics of chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in normal phase HPLC. II. Chloro-substituted PAHs

Summary The retention behaviour of chloro-substituted PAHs on several commercial normal bonded phase HPLC columns has been investigated. Chloro-substitution was shown to generally decrease the retention on stationary phases like amino-, diol- and nitrophenylpropyl-modified silica. Dimethylaminosilica exhibited more complex retention characteristics towards chloro-substituted PAHs. On this stationary phase, the position of the chlorine substituents on the aromatic solute seemed to be of greater importance for retention than on the amino-, nitro- and diolsilica. For some chloro-PAHs, the retention was shown to increase with the number of chloro-substitutions, probably due to the large affinity of the electron-rich nitrogen in the stationary phase for the electron deficient -system of the chloro-PAHs. Chloro-substituted PAHs were strongly retarded on the electron donating 2-(1-pyrenyl)-ethylsilica (PYE) stationary phase. However, the molecular shape of the chloro-derivatives had a large influence on retention, which was considerably decreased for some nonplanar chloro-derivatives of chrysene and benz(a)anthracene. A two-dimensional back-flush HPLC method, consisting of a combination of a nitrophenylsilica column and a PYE column of matched lengths, was shown to be useful for clean-up of chloro-substituted PAHs in environmental samples.     

Synthesis and properties of azidostyrylquinolines

Isomeric azidostyrylquinolines with a 4-azidostyryl group in position 2 or 4 of the quinoline ring have been synthesized. In the neutral form the azidostyrylquinolines absorb in the near UV but the protonated species absorb in the short wavelength region of the visible spectrum. In both forms the azides are lightsensitive and decompose under the influence of light with a quantum yield close to 1. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 4, pp. 555–561, April, 2007.

Mono and bis[N-aryl(benzyl)]amides of phosphorylacetic acids. One-pot synthesis and extraction of actinides from nitric acid solutions

A one-pot synthetic route to phosphorylacetic acid N-aryl(alkylaryl)amides, including those containing two phosphorylmethylcarbamoyl moieties attached to the arene framework, has been developed. The method is based on reactions of amines with the corresponding acid chlorides generated in situ with the use of phosphorus trichloride as a mild chlorinating agent. The compositions and structures of the compounds obtained and their extraction ability toward Am^III were determined. Suggestions were made about the compositions of the extracted complexes with phosphorylacetic acid N-aryl(alkylaryl)amides. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Reductive activation of arenes

Stable cyanomethylcyclohexadienyl anions generated in two-electron reduction of isomeric tolunitriles by potassium in liquid ammonia were detected by NMR spectroscopy. The chemical shifts in these anions were obtained from density functional (PBE/3z) quantum chemical calculations and the electron density distributions for the anions were calculated in the framework of the NBO approach at the HF/6-31+G* level of theory. The experimental and calculated δ_C values are in good agreement. Changes in the δ_C values on going from the starting nitriles to the corresponding anions are linearly related to the calculated π-electron densities on the pentadienyl ring carbon atoms.
