Sonochemistry and its dosimetry

The effects of ultrasound originate primarily in acoustic cavitation. The cavitation bubbles collapse violently enough to lead to interesting chemical effects, known as sonochemistry. There is a great need to relate the efficiency of sonochemical reaction to the energy of ultrasonic irradiation used to produce them. In this paper, three OH radical dosimeters, Fricke dosimeter, terephthalate dosimeter, and iodide dosimeter, are compared from the analytical point of view. The dosimeters based on photometry, i.e., Fricke and iodide, produced reliable and reproducible results, but the sensitivity is not enough for special applications, such as chemical monitoring of single bubble cavitation. The dosimeter based on fluorometry, terephthalate dosimeter, offered high sensitivity, 1.2×10¹¹ molecules ml⁻¹. The effects of some experimental parameters in sonochemistry, i.e., solution temperature and the dissolved gas species, were evaluated with the dosimeters.     

四（五氟化苯基）卟啉氯化铁选择催化氧化超临界丙烷的反应机理

 以BHT为自由基捕捉剂，研究了四（五氟化苯基）卟啉氯化铁（Ⅲ）将超临界丙烷高选择性催化氧化为丙醇的反应机理．通过GC－MS分析发现，反应产物中有PBHT，故可认为在超临界丙烷氧化反应过程中有丙基自由基存在，初步推断反应涉及自由基机理．同时发现高浓度BHT抑制反应，低浓度BHT促进反应的现象，而以戊烷为底物时没有促进作用．这是由于BHT的位阻效应所致．并对BHT存在时超临界丙烷氧化反应机理进行了初步的推断．

Reactivity of stable neopentyl-Pd intermediates in the absence of nucleophile

In the absence of any trapping agent, stable neopentyl-Pd intermediates can terminate a catalytic cycle by undergoing a regioselective C-H activation, leading to various spiro or fused cyclopropane derivatives in a straightforward manner. If the neopentyl-Pd intermediate contains a heteroatom at a suitable position, C-H activation does not occur and stable palladacycles are isolated.     

Homolytic Cyclizations of N-Chloroalkenylamines

Many N-chloroalkylamines with double bond(s) dissociate homolytically to give chlorine atoms and aminyl radicals which undergo intramolecular cyclization reactions. Here, the nature of the aminyl radicals (neutral, protonated, or complexed to metal salts) appears to be important. The reactivity varies strongly from one species to another, and their selectivities can be different towards addition, substitution, abstraction, or dimerization reactions. A good synthetic tool appears to be the “complexed radical”, which is generated under mild conditions. A variety of β-functionalized, substituted, fused, or bridged azaheterocycles with alkaloid part structures thus become easily accessible in high yields, in a regio- and, possibly, stereoselective manner. Many examples are discussed illustrating the synthetic possibilities, limitations, and mechanistic features of this cyclization process.     

Synthesis on the basis of electrogenerated carbenes

A series ofS _N2 reactions with halomethanes as substrates and the corresponding anions as nucleophiles were studied by the semiempirical MNDO and AM1 methods, taking into account solvent effects. Analysis of the kinetics, structures of reagents, intermediates and products, and charge distribution in them allows one to draw the conclusion that the retardation ofS _N2 reactions is stronger in solvents than in the gas phase, and the rates of reactions involving anions with a lower number of halogen atoms are higher.For Part 8 see Ref. 1.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
