Oxydation von Allylalkoholen mit Blei(IV)-acetat

Lead tetraacetate (LTA) oxidation of the allylic alcohols 1, 10, 14 and 19 leads to the formation of the epoxides 2, 11, 15 and 20 , products of a novel internal addition reaction of the electron deficient alcohol oxygen to the allylic double bond. In some cases ( 10, 14 ) the formation of a new type of acetoxylated enolethers ( 12, 16 ) is observed. The LTA oxidation of the allylic dienols 21 and 29 gives rise to the formation of the epoxyacetates 25 and 33 , products of a similar internal addition reaction. Furthermore, a variety of cyclization products ( 22, 23, 24, 26, 30, 31, 32 and 34 ) has been isolated whose formation requires an isomerisation of the allylic trans double bond to a cis one.

Pfropfcopolymerisation von Cellulose mit zwei Vinylmonomeren

Zusammenfassung Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt eine Beschreibung von Experimenten dar, die die Erhöhung der Pfropfbereitschaft von trägen Komponenten durch Beimischung von aktiveren zum Ziele hatten.Das Trägermolekül war in allen Fällen Cellulose in Form von hochgradig gereinigtem Zellstoff. Durch die Verwendung von Mischsystemen aus Styrol und Methylmethacrylat gelang es, das trägere Styrol in bedeutend größerer Menge auf die Cellulose aufzupfropfen, als es bei Abwesenheit des aktiven Methylmethacrylats der Fall war.

Grafting Polymerization of Cellulose with Two Vinyl Monomers

This paper describes experiments to increase the grafting of cellulose with components of poor reactivity by mixing them with highly reactive ones. A highly purified wood pulp was used as backbone. Using combinations of styrene and methyl methacrylate it was possible to graft considerably higher amounts of the poorly reacting styrene than in the absence of the highly reactive methyl methacrylate.

Generalized Hückel treatment of a simple model of transannular interaction and excimer formation

The model of two interacting ethylene molecules having D _2h symmetry was studied using generalized Hückel method. The validity of - separation was tested on this model. The general character of the ground state and lower lying excited states of the model was discussed and the implications drawn concerning transannular interaction and excimer formation. The values obtained for the dissociation energy of the first excited state of our model and corresponding equilibrium intermolecular distance are of right order of magnitude.

Zusammenfassung Mittels der verallgemeinerten Hückel-Methode wurde das Modell von zwei Äthylenmolekülen mit der Symmetrie D _2h studiert. An diesem Modell wurde die Gültigkeit der - -Separation geprüft. Der allgemeine Charakter des Grundzustandes und der niedriger liegenden angeregten Zustände des Modells wird erörtert und die Folgerungen in Bezug auf transannulare Wechselwirkung und Excimer-Entstehung diskutiert. Die erhaltenen Werte für die Dissoziationsenergie des ersten angeregten Zustandes von unserem Modell und den entsprechenden intermolekularen Gleichgewichtsabstand haben die richtige Größenordnung.

Résumé Le modèle à symétrie D _2h de deux molécules d'éthylène en interaction a été étudié en utilisant la méthode généralisée de Hückel. On a examiné la validité de la séparation - sur ce modèle. Le caractère général de l'état fondamental et celui des états excités inférieurs du modèle furent discutés et on a fait des déductions sur l'interaction transannulaire et sur la formation d'«excimères». Les valeurs obtenues pour l'énergie de dissociation du premier état excité de notre modèle et la distance intermoléculaire d'équilibre corréspondante ont l'ordre de magnitude correct.

     

Organosilicon compounds VI. The preparation of silylaziridines and silyldiaziridines by silicon-carbon cleavage

The preparation of several 2-furyl-, 2-thienyl-, benzyl-, and allylsubstituted silanes is reported. Such derivatives, when treated with aziridine in the presence of a metal catalyst, afford good yields of silylaziridines and silyldiaziridines. A qualitative study of electronic and steric requirements of the displacement reaction is reported.     

Diphosphacarbollide analogues of the C5H5- anion: isolation of the nido-di- and triphosphacarboranes 7,8,9-P2CB8H10, [7,8,9-P2CB8H9]-, [7,8,10-P2CB8H9]-, and 7,8,9,10-P3CB7H8

Treatment of a solution of excess PCl(3) and PS (PS = "proton sponge" = 1,8-dimethylamino naphthalene) with arachno-4-CB(8)H(14) (1) in CH(2)Cl(2), followed by hydrolysis of the reaction mixture, resulted in the isolation of the eleven-vertex diphosphacarbaborane nido-7,8,9-P(2)CB(8)H(10) (2) (yield 34%) as the main product. Other products isolated from this reaction were the phosphacarboranes nido-7,8,9,10-P(3)CB(7)H(8) (3) (yield 5%) and closo-2,1-PCB(8)H(9) (4) (yield 15%). Compound 2 can be deprotonated by PS in CH(2)Cl(2) or NaH in diethyl ether to give the [nido-7,8,9-P(2)CB(8)H(9)](-) (2(-)()) anion, which gives back the original compound, 2, upon re-protonation. Thermal rearrangement of anion 2(-) (Na(+) salt) at 350 degrees C for 2 h produced the isomeric [nido-7,8,10-P(2)CB(8)H(9)](-) (5(-)()) anion, which was isolated as a PPh(4)(+) salt (yield 86%). Multinuclear ((1)H, (11)B, (31)P, and (13)C), two-dimensional [(11)B-(11)B] COSY, (1)H{(11)B(selective)}, (1)H{(31)P(selective)}, and gradient-enhanced ([(1)H-(13)C] HSQC) magnetic resonance measurements led to complete assignments of all resonances which are in excellent agreement with the structures proposed. Coupling constants, (1)J((31)P,(13)C), (2)J((31)P,C,(1)H), and (1)J((31)P,(31)P), were calculated using the DFT method B3LYP/6-311+G(d,p). The molecular geometries of all compounds were optimized ab initio at a correlated level of theory (RMP2(fc)) using the 6-31G basis set, and their correctness was assessed by comparison of the experimental (11)B and (13)C chemical shifts with those calculated by the GIAO-SCF/II//RMP2(fc)/6-31G method. The computations also include the structures and chemical shieldings of the still unknown isomers [nido-7,10,8-P(2)CB(8)H(9)](-) (6(-)) and [nido-7,9,8-P(2)CB(8)H(9)](-) (7(-)).

Configurationally and conformationally homogeneous cyclic n-aryl sulfimides—IV : Synthesis,configuration and stereochemistry of the rearrangement of 1,3-di-thiane-1-N-p-chlorophenylimides

1,3-Dithiane-1-N-p-chlorophenylimides (1,4-9) were prepared and their configuration and conformation was determined by ¹H and ¹³C NMR. The compounds were rearranged to the corresponding 2-(2'-amino-5'-chlorophenyl)-1, 3-dithianes (1U,4U,9U). The rearrangement reactions took place with ?95% stereospecifity. The mechanism of the reaction was investigated with the aid of analogs specifically deuterated at C-2.     

Performance of the general-model-space state-universal coupled-cluster method

The capabilities of the recently developed multireference, general-model-space (GMS), state-universal (SU) coupled-cluster (CC) method have been extended in order to enable the handling of any excited state that represents a single (S) or a double (D) excitation relative to the ground state. A series of calculations concerning the ground and excited states of the CH(+), HF, F(2), H(2)O, NH(2), and CH(2) molecules were carried out so as to assess the performance of the GMS SU CCSD method. For diatomics we have computed the entire potential energy curves, while for triatomics we have focused on vertical excitation energies. We demonstrate how a systematic enlargement of the model space enables a consideration of a larger and larger number of excited states. A comparison of the CC and full configuration interaction or large-scale CI results enables an assessment of the accuracy and reliability of the GMS SU CCSD method within a given basis set. In all cases very good results have been obtained, including highly excited states and those having a doubly-excited character.
