Efficient microwave induced direct α-halogenation of carbonyl compounds

A novel and direct method for the synthesis of α-halocarbonyl compounds using sequential treatment of carbonyl compounds with [hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]benzene followed by magnesium halides under solvent-free microwave irradiation conditions is described.     

Effect of borohydride as reducing agent on the structures and electrochemical properties of Pt/C catalyst

In this paper, we found that boron deposited on the surface of support when sodium borohydride used as reducing agent during the preparation of Pt/C catalyst. The deposition of boron markedly reduces particle size of Pt, raises electrochemical active surface (EAS) area of catalyst and electrochemical activity for hydrogen evolution or oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) compared with which prepared using other reducing agents (hydrogen and formaldehyde).     

Synthesis and Structure of Novel Organocycloborates

A series of α,ω‐boryl(bromo)alkanes of the general formula R₂B? (CH₂)_n? Br (n=3, 4, 5, 6) was obtained in high yield following a standard hydroboration protocol. Upon treatment with Mg turnings and formation of the respective Grignard species, all alkanes with n=4 to 6 underwent an unprecedented boron‐centered cyclisation reaction with formation of boratacyclopentanes, ‐hexanes, and ‐heptanes, respectively. All new compounds were isolated in high yields as colourless, crystalline materials and characterised in solution by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. Four representative examples were chosen for X‐ray diffraction studies, thus providing the first structurally characterised ring systems of that size at a tetraalkyl borate centre.     

MgO在Mg-hBN体系中对合成cBN晶体的影响

 以金属镁粉为触媒，以六角氮化硼为原料，其中加入适量比例的氧化镁，在国产六面顶压机上，在约5.0 GPa压力、1 500～1 800 K温度条件下，合成出了颜色均匀、晶形完整的黄色立方氮化硼单晶体。实验结果表明，在Mg-hBN体系中，氧化镁对合成cBN晶体的颜色及合成温度有很大的影响。     

Diagramme polythermique du systeme ternaire H2O—Al(NO3)3—Mg(NO3)2

The solid—liquid equilibria of the ternary system H₂O—Al(NO₃)₃—Mg(NO₃)₂ were studied at –30, –20, –10 and 0°C by using a synthetic method which allows to detemine all the characteristic points of isothermal sections. The stable solid phases which appear are respectively: ice, Al(NO₃)₃·9H₂O, Mg(NO₃)₂·9H₂O and Mg(NO₃)₂·6H₂O. Neither double salts nor mixed crystals are observed in the temperature and composition field studied. Polytherm diagram layout show two invariant transformations correspond with an eutectic point and a peritectic point.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Synthesis of poly(p‐phenylene sulfide) from bis(4‐bromophenyl) disulfide

Improved reaction conditions for the preparation of poly(p‐phenylene sulfide) (PPS) directly from bis(4‐bromophenyl) disulfide (BBD) have been established. Heating BBD with magnesium metal afforded only a low molecular weight polymer. PPS with a melting temperature around 280 °C was obtained from BBD in the presence of sodium carbonate or zinc metal. The best results were obtained with the addition of a catalytic amount of KI to the zinc–BBD mixture. Polymers prepared by the above methods are semicrystalline and dissolve in 1‐chloronaphthalene and have properties comparable to commercial PPS. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A microcalorimetric study of the association of hexacyanoferrate(II) ions with calcium and magnesium ions in aqueous solution

Using flow microcalorimetry, the ion association reaction M²⁺(aq)+Fe(CN) ₆ ^4– (aq)=MFe(CN) ₆ ^2– (aq) (M=Ca, Mg) has been studied at 25°C over the ionic strength range 0.02 to 0.08 mol-dm^–3. Analyses of the data to obtain H^o, the enthalpy change at infinite dilution, are described. The value obtained for H^o is sensitive to the kind of functions used to correct for non-ideal behavior.     

A Magnesium-Selective Ionophore Containing Four Amide Carbonyl Ligands Derived from L-Tartaric Acid and Axial Furano Oxygen Binding Sites

Octahedrally converging hexadentate macrocyclic receptors 1 and 2, based on L-tartaric acid and furanmoieties, were synthesized andtheir complexation properties studied. In this paper,magnesium ion selectivitiesdetermined by ISE experiments, chiroptical changes observedby circular dichroism(CD) on complexation, and association constants measuredby NMR titration arediscussed.
