Triorganotin 4-isopropylbenzoates as model transesterification catalysts for triorganotin carboxylates grafted to cross-linked polystyrene

Starting from 4-isopropylbenzoic acid, three new triorganotin carboxylates bearing methyl, butyl and phenyl substituents at tin, respectively, were prepared and fully characterized by spectroscopic and thermal techniques, with particular regard to the coordination number of tin atom, in solution as well as in the solid state. The triorganotin compounds, tested as transesterification catalysts in the reaction between ethyl acetate and primary, secondary or tertiary alcohol, respectively, displayed, as expected, a strong decrease of activity on passing from the primary to the tertiary alcohol reactant. Different activities by the tin carboxylates were also observed in the reaction between primary alcohol and ethyl acetate. The reaction mechanism, as elucidated by Sn NMR, involves coordination of both ester substrate and alcohol reactant to the triorganotin compound, the reaction conversion appearing related not only to the Lewis acidity of the tin atom, but also to the nature of the reactants. Preliminary catalytic tests were also carried out in the reaction between glyceryl tridodecanoate (as a model of natural triglyceride) and ethanol, mimicking the preparation of biodiesel fuel. Although in this case lower conversions were obtained with respect to the reactions on ethyl acetate, the catalytic activity of organotin derivatives appears considerable.     

Search for Resolution of Chiral Fluorohalogenomethanes and Parity‐Violation Effects at the Molecular Level

The first observation of a parity‐violation effect in molecules induced by weak interactions is still a dream that requires the synthesis and, eventually, the resolution of the enantiomers of well‐chosen simple chiral molecules together with an appropriate experimental set‐up for high‐resolution spectroscopy. Performing IR spectroscopy on highly enantiomerically enriched samples of bromochlorofluoromethane succeeded in giving an upper limit of 10^?13 for the relative vibrational energy difference between the two enantiomers. These results led us to conceive a new experimental set‐up based on a supersonic molecular beam and to work on other chiral molecules, such as chlorofluoroiodomethane. A synthesis of (±)‐CHClFI from racemic chlorofluoroiodoacetic acid should, in the near future permit the preparation of optically active samples of this haloform. The development of molecular beam spectroscopy using a two‐photon Ramsey‐fringes experiment should allow us to reach the precision needed to observe parity violation. These experimental challenges, which stimulate a close collaboration between chemists and physicists, are presented. The success of these projects would open the route to new information on the molecular Hamiltonian, a better knowledge of the electroweak interaction, and a better control of the various chirality‐related properties of simple molecules.

XPS,AFM, ATR and TPD evidence for terraced,dihydrogen terminated, 1×1 (100) silicon

Heating (100) silicon at high temperature (say, higher than 850 °C) in H₂, cooling to 670–700 °C in the same ambient, and quenching to room temperature in N₂ results in environmentally robust, terraced 1 × 1 (100) SiH₂. Evidence for this conclusion is based on angle‐resolved x‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, infrared absorption spectroscopy in the attenuated total reflection mode, thermal programmed desorption, and reflection high‐energy electron diffraction.
