Catalyst Today, 2004, 88, 139-151 Catalysis Today 88 (2004) 139–151 Hydrodehalogenation with sonochemically prepared Mo2C and W2C James D. Oxley, Millan M. Mdleleni, Kenneth S. Suslick∗ School of Chemical Sciences, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 600 S. Mathews Ave., Urbana, IL 61801, USA Abstract The catalytic hydrodehalogenation (HDH) of several halogenated organic compounds was performed over sonochemically prepared molybdenum carbide and tungsten carbide at low temperatures (T = 200–300 ◦C). Both catalysts were selective, active, and stable for all substrates tested. Benzene was observed as the major product for the HDH of fluoro-, chloro-, bromo- and iodobenzene, with activities following the trend of C6H5F > C6H5Cl > C6H5Br > C6H5I. For the HDH of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), Cl was selectively removed over F and alkanes were the major product. In the liquid phase, the HDH of polychlorinated and polybrominated biphenyls resulted in biphenyl as the only product. The HDH of substrates bearing aliphatic C–Cl bonds occurs faster than those with arene C–Cl bonds. Time-on-stream studies of HDH of chlorobenzene show high stability for the sonochemically prepared catalysts, with half-lives as long as 600 h. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract An investigation was conducted to determine the influence of oxygen and various organic mole­ cules on the reduction of the friction of an iron (011) single crystal surface. A comparison was made between aliphatic and aromatic structures, all of which contained six carbon atoms, and among various halogen atoms. Results of the investigation indicate that hexane and benzene give similar friction coefficients over a range of loads except at very light loads. At light loads, the friction decreased with an increase in the load where the halogens fluorine and chlorine are in­ corporated into the benzene molecular structure; however, over the same load range when bro­ mine and iodine were present, the friction was relatively unchanged.

Watson A Doctoral Thesis Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements For the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University (June 2011) © by Hayley Watson (2011) ABSTRACT Activated cyclopropanes have been extensively used in synthetic chemistry as precursors for cycloaddition reactions. The rationale behind this is their ability to undergo ring- opening when activated by a Lewis acid, this can be enhanced further by the presence of a carbocation stabilising group like electron-rich aromatics. The stabilised dipole formed after ring opening can be trapped with suitable electrophiles such as imines and aldehydes via a [3+2] cycloaddition reaction. This results in the synthesis of pyrrolidines and tetrahydrofurans in excellent yields but moderate diastereoselectivity. Similarly, 6- membered heterocycles can be formed via a [3+3] cycloaddition reaction of activated cyclopropanes with nitrones. Now to extend the scope of the methodology, a [3+3] dipolar cycloaddition has been developed using activated 2,3 disubstituted cyclopropane diesters to access a range of highly functionalised oxazines in moderate to good yields (50-75%) and with reasonable diastereoselectivity.

  • Alksli and Then Tested Qualitatively for Fluorine by a Potassium Fusion Downloaded by Guest on October 2, 2021 184 CHEMISTRY: BANCROFT and WHEARTY, JR
    VOL. 17, 1931 CHEMISTRY: BANCROFT AND WHEARTY, JR. 183 1. Purified, activated charcoal causes chlorine to substitute in the ring with benzene and toluene. 2. We have confirmed Custis' results that light from an iron arc causes some ring substitution of chlorine with benzene and with toluene. 3. Certain unspecified wave-lengths in the ultra-violet activate benzene and toluene and give rise to the ring substitution. 4. If the action of the charcoal is not due to metallic impurities, char- coal must be an activating catalyst for benzene and toluene. 1 This work is part of the programme now being carried out at Cornell University under a grant from the Heckscher Foundation for the Advancement of Research estab- lished by August Heckscher at Cornell University. 2 Bancroft, J.

BAKER CHEMICAL LABORATORY, CORNELL UNIVERSITY Communicated February 24, 1931 When fluorine is passed into dry benzene at room temperature, small explosions occur and carbon is precipitated, hydrogen fluoride and carbon tetrafluoride passing off. If the fluorine is diluted to one-half with dry nitrogen, and the benzene is cooled to 70, the reaction takes place more slowly and a tarry product is obtained with an odor somewhat like di- phenyl.
