Brandon Strong, Brittany A. Lore, Emily R. Christensen, Nathaniel W. Martinez, ‡ and Andres W. Martinez*, † ‡ Department of Biological Sciences and Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, California 93401, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Shrinking paper money is a captivating and memorable demonstration of chemistry in action that can be carried out using minimal equipment and reagents. Paper bills can be shrunk down to ∼25% of their initial surface area by treating them with an aqueous solution of sodium periodate. The cellulose in the paper bill is oxidized to dialdehyde cellulose via the Malaprade reaction, and the resulting change in size of the paper money provides macroscopic evidence of the reaction. The chemical change that occurs in the cellulose can be confirmed by a Tollen’s test.

Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) have been studied extensively in the past couple of decades, and there have been tremendous advances in the development of these systems, especially in industries such as automotive and portable power. Anion exchange membranes (AEM) have caught the attention of scientists because they would allow for the development of fuel cells without costly precious metal catalysts, among other advantages. Efforts are being made in developing long-lived and high performance AEMs for fuel cell applications. Primarily, the focus in AEM research has been membrane stability. It has been observed that AEMs are not as stable as the state-of-the-art NAFION® PEM and demonstrations of cell performance beyond 1000 hours is rare.

  • 2 Reactions Observed with Alkanes Do Not Occur with Aromatic Compounds 2 (SN2 Reactions Never Occur on Sp Hybridized Carbons!)
    Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Aromatic compounds are stabilized by this “aromatic stabilization” energy Due to this stabilization, normal SN2 reactions observed with alkanes do not occur with aromatic compounds 2 (SN2 reactions never occur on sp hybridized carbons!) In addition, the double bonds of the aromatic group do not behave similar to alkene reactions Aromatic Substitution While aromatic compounds do not react through addition reactions seen earlier Br Br Br2 Br2 FeBr3 Br With an appropriate catalyst, benzene will react with bromine The product is a substitution, not an addition (the bromine has substituted for a hydrogen) The product is still aromatic Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution Aromatic compounds react through a unique substitution type reaction Initially an electrophile reacts with the aromatic compound to generate an arenium ion (also called sigma complex) The arenium ion has lost aromatic stabilization (one of the carbons of the ring no longer has a conjugated p orbital) Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution In a second step, the arenium ion loses a proton to regenerate the aromatic stabilization The product is thus a substitution (the electrophile has substituted for a hydrogen) and is called an Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution Energy Profile Transition states Transition states Intermediate Potential E energy H Starting material Products E Reaction Coordinate The rate-limiting step is therefore the formation of the arenium ion The properties of this arenium ion therefore control electrophilic aromatic substitutions (just like any reaction consider the stability of the intermediate formed in the rate limiting step) 1) The rate will be faster for anything that stabilizes the arenium ion 2) The regiochemistry will be controlled by the stability of the arenium ion The properties of the arenium ion will predict the outcome of electrophilic aromatic substitution chemistry Bromination To brominate an aromatic ring need to generate an electrophilic source of bromine In practice typically add a Lewis acid (e.g.

  • Alcohol Oxidation
    Alcohol oxidation Alcohol oxidation is an important organic reaction. Primary alcohols (R-CH2-OH) can be oxidized either Mechanism of oxidation of primary alcohols to carboxylic acids via aldehydes and The indirect oxidation of aldehyde hydrates primary alcohols to carboxylic acids normally proceeds via the corresponding aldehyde, which is transformed via an aldehyde hydrate (R- CH(OH)2) by reaction with water. The oxidation of a primary alcohol at the aldehyde level is possible by performing the reaction in absence of water, so that no aldehyde hydrate can be formed. Contents Oxidation to aldehydes Oxidation to ketones Oxidation to carboxylic acids Diol oxidation References Oxidation to aldehydes Oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes is partial oxidation; aldehydes are further oxidized to carboxylic acids. Conditions required for making aldehydes are heat and distillation. In aldehyde formation, the temperature of the reaction should be kept above the boiling point of the aldehyde and below the boiling point of the alcohol. Reagents useful for the transformation of primary alcohols to aldehydes are normally also suitable for the oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones. These include: Oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones Chromium-based reagents, such as Collins reagent (CrO3·Py2), PDC or PCC. Sulfonium species known as "activated DMSO" which can result from reaction of DMSO with electrophiles, such as oxalyl chloride (Swern oxidation), a carbodiimide (Pfitzner-Moffatt oxidation) or the complex SO3·Py (Parikh-Doering oxidation). Hypervalent iodine compounds, such as Dess-Martin periodinane or 2-Iodoxybenzoic acid. Catalytic TPAP in presence of excess of NMO (Ley oxidation).

  • Reaction Mechanism Lecture 3 : Nucleophilic And
    Module 10 : Reaction mechanism Lecture 3 : Nucleophilic and Electrophilic Addition and Abstraction Objectives In this lecture you will learn the following Ligand activation by metal that leads to a direct external attack at the ligand. Nucleophilic addition and nucleophilic abstraction reactions. Electrophilic addition and electrophilic abstraction reactions. The nucleophilic and electrophilic substitution and abstraction reactions can be viewed as ways of activation of substrates to allow an external reagent to directly attack the metal activated ligand without requiring prior binding of the external reagent to the metal. The attacking reagent may be a nucleophile or an electrophile. The nucleophilic attack of the external reagent is favored if the LnM fragment is a poor π−base and a good σ−acid i.e., when the complex is cationic and/or when the other metal bound ligands are electron withdrawing such that the ligand getting activated gets depleted of electron density and can undergo an external attack by a nucleophile Nu−, like LiMe or OH−. The attack of the nucleophiles may result in the formation of a bond between the nucleophiles and the activated unsaturated substrate, in which case it is called nucleophilic addition, or may result in an abstraction of a part or the whole of the activated ligand, in which case it is called the nucleophilic abstraction. The nucleophilic addition and the abstraction reactions are discussed below. Nucleophilic addition An example of a nucleophilic addition reaction is shown below. Carbon monoxide (CO) as a ligand can undergo nucleophilic attack when bound to a metal center of poor π−basicity, as the carbon center of the CO ligand is electron deficient owing to the ligand to metal σ−donation not being fully compensated by the metal to ligand π−back donation.

  • Solvating Alkylamine Hofmann Elimination in Zeolites Through Cooperative Adsorption Han Chen† and Omar A
    Solvating Alkylamine Hofmann Elimination in Zeolites Through Cooperative Adsorption Han Chen† and Omar A. Abdelrahman †,‡* † Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Massachusetts Amherst, 686 N. Pleasant Street, Amherst, MA 01003, USA ‡ Catalysis Center for Energy Innovation, University of Delaware, 150 Academy Street, Newark, DE 19716, USA *Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract. A kinetic investigation of the vapor phase Hofmann elimination of tert-butylamine over H- ZSM-5 reveals a carbocation mediated E1-like mechanism, where isobutene and ammonia are exclusively produced over Brønsted acid sites. Hofmann elimination kinetics are found to be insensitive to Al content or siting, varying only with alkylamine carbocation stability (rtertiary > rsecondary > rprimary). Under conditions of complete tert-butylamine surface coverage, experimentally measurable apparent kinetics are directly equivalent to the intrinsic kinetics of the rate determining unimolecular surface elimination. The direct measurement of elementary step kinetics served as a water-free reactive probe, providing a direct measurement of the impact of water on solid Brønsted acid catalyzed chemistries at a microscopic level. Over a range of temperatures (453‒513 K) and tert-butylamine partial pressures (6.8×10-2‒6.8 kPa), water reversibly inhibits the rate of Hofmann elimination. Despite expected changes in aluminosilicate hydrophobicity, the water-induced inhibition is found to be insensitive to Al content, demonstrated to be due to one water molecule per Brønsted acid site. Regardless of the significant reduction in the rate of Hofmann elimination, kinetic interrogations and operando spectroscopic measurements reveal that the coverage of TBA adsorbed on H-ZSM-5 is unaltered in the presence of water.

  • Ruthenium Tetroxide and Perruthenate Chemistry. Recent Advances and Related Transformations Mediated by Other Transition Metal Oxo-Species
    Molecules 2014, 19, 6534-6582; doi:10.3390/molecules19056534 OPEN ACCESS molecules ISSN 1420-3049 www.mdpi.com/journal/molecules Review Ruthenium Tetroxide and Perruthenate Chemistry. Recent Advances and Related Transformations Mediated by Other Transition Metal Oxo-species Vincenzo Piccialli Dipartimento di Scienze Chimiche, Università degli Studi di Napoli ―Federico II‖, Via Cintia 4, 80126, Napoli, Italy; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-081-674111; Fax: +39-081-674393 Received: 24 February 2014; in revised form: 14 May 2014 / Accepted: 16 May 2014 / Published: 21 May 2014 Abstract: In the last years ruthenium tetroxide is increasingly being used in organic synthesis. Thanks to the fine tuning of the reaction conditions, including pH control of the medium and the use of a wider range of co-oxidants, this species has proven to be a reagent able to catalyse useful synthetic transformations which are either a valuable alternative to established methods or even, in some cases, the method of choice. Protocols for oxidation of hydrocarbons, oxidative cleavage of C–C double bonds, even stopping the process at the aldehyde stage, oxidative cleavage of terminal and internal alkynes, oxidation of alcohols to carboxylic acids, dihydroxylation of alkenes, oxidative degradation of phenyl and other heteroaromatic nuclei, oxidative cyclization of dienes, have now reached a good level of improvement and are more and more included into complex synthetic sequences. The perruthenate ion is a ruthenium (VII) oxo-species. Since its introduction in the mid-eighties, tetrapropylammonium perruthenate (TPAP) has reached a great popularity among organic chemists and it is mostly employed in catalytic amounts in conjunction with N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO) for the mild oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to carbonyl compounds.
