INTR,ODUCTIQN Investigations·in two different fields.of organic chemistry are preiented in the two parts of this thesis. Each part has its corres­ ponding chapter on historical, discussion and experimental sections and bibliography, and is complete by itself. The first part:of the thesis concerns the studies on the pyrolytic and photolytic decomposition of trityl esters. Cleavage of such esters was predicted to occur via hemolytic carbon-o~yg;en bond severance at elevated temperatures •. The i,nvestigations provided an opportunity, to study the relative stability of trityl and acyloxy or. aroyloxy, radicals as ~ell as the decay routes of most radicals produced. The second part of the thesis describes investigations on the use of the orthoestets and acetals as the precursors for ~ialkoxy and alko~y­ carbenes •. Dialkoxycarbenes,.although·proposed as intermediates in the formation of orthoesters, have been the most elusive type of carbenes to trap and consequently not studied extensively. Attempts to genet"ate such carbenes and study,-the competitive reaction between compounds having electron-rich centers appeared worthwhile. It was surprising to note that although reactions of orthoesters and acetals withGrignard reagents have been studied, parallel reactions with lithium reagents are unreported. 1 PART I A STUDY OF PYROLYTIC AND PHOTOLYTIC DECOMPOSITION OF TRITYL PROPIONATE AND TRITYL ~~NAPHTHOATE +ABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page I.

Steric considerations alone are a formidable obstacle in the p,rocess.

Perhaps a more convenient laboratory method of synthesis of such esters employs the reaction of the corresponding tertiary halide with the silv~r salt of the acid (53)~ .Esters of c~rtain aliphatic ter- tia1;y alcohols'i"~an. be made from the olefln and the corresponding acid as exemplified by the prepa1;ation ·of tertiary butyl acetate from. iso• butylene and glacial acetic acid in pre·sehce of 'zinc chloride (37) or ,6 7 sulfuric acid (40) •. Such an approach is ·not feasible for synthesis of esters of triarylmethanols., .Triphenylniethanol has been known for a.long time, but relatively few of its esters are recorded. Gomberg and Davis (25) were the first to report the synthesis of trityl acetate obtained from trityl chloride and exc~ss silver acetate in boiling benzene. 0 0 II II . benzene .. (C H ) C-0-C-CH .

Ammonium, sodium and potassium salts (2, 10, 15, 50) have been used in addition.to silver salts with varying.degree of . ~ .. ~-. ~ : ,·· . success •. Trityl bromide, although not readily available,. is more reac- tive and less hygroscopic than trityl chloride (10, 50) . Preparation of trityl formate from triphenylmethanol and anhydrous formic acid by Bowden and Watkins (16) is the only·reported direct synthesis of a trityl ester from the acid and the alcohol. The ester was not is.olated as it was unstable above 49°. Althou~h the mechanism of the esterification was not s4bstantiated,. it was probably ·ionic in nature .. involving the formation and reacti<m of trityl carbonium ion. Trityl acetate has been obtained (95%) by shaking a solution of trityl bromide with ammonium acetate in benzene by Schoepfle (50) •. Trityl propionate · .was also -prepared via the reaction of a.- large excess of silver propion- ate with trityl chloride in boiling benzene (2).

Two mechanisms have been. discussed. In one .case the acid is presumed to. act as an electrophile in establishing the equilibrium in ionization of trityl chloride •. This is followed by reaction of the carbonium ion with the ~arboxylate ariion. It is also possible to consider a concerted mechanism involving attack of the carboxylate anion on carbon and electrophilic solvation of chloride ion. Up to 39 per cent conversion of trityl chlor- ide to the esters was reported. The studies, however, were more from the kinetic rather than synthetic point of view. A change in the general procedure has been reported by Blicke (15) who prepared trityl benzoate from potassium triphenylmethoxide and benzoyl chloride. He noted the reaction was exothermic in benzene solution and obtained trityl benzoate although the yield was not given. Another approach, somewhat specific for preparation of trityl esters, is the reaction of peroxides of carboxylic acids with trityl radicals or triphenylmethane. Wieland and co-workers (56,. 57) have prepared trityl benzoate, trityl .,e-toluate and trityl .,e-anisate by this procedure. Trityl radicals were generated by the reaction of pure trityl chloride 9 with mercury·in benzene solution. Trityl radicals initiate a chain reaction, . as shown. below ...

  • Working with Hazardous Chemicals
    A Publication of Reliable Methods for the Preparation of Organic Compounds Working with Hazardous Chemicals The procedures in Organic Syntheses are intended for use only by persons with proper training in experimental organic chemistry. All hazardous materials should be handled using the standard procedures for work with chemicals described in references such as "Prudent Practices in the Laboratory" (The National Academies Press, Washington, D.C., 2011; the full text can be accessed free of charge at http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=12654). All chemical waste should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. For general guidelines for the management of chemical waste, see Chapter 8 of Prudent Practices. In some articles in Organic Syntheses, chemical-specific hazards are highlighted in red “Caution Notes” within a procedure. It is important to recognize that the absence of a caution note does not imply that no significant hazards are associated with the chemicals involved in that procedure. Prior to performing a reaction, a thorough risk assessment should be carried out that includes a review of the potential hazards associated with each chemical and experimental operation on the scale that is planned for the procedure. Guidelines for carrying out a risk assessment and for analyzing the hazards associated with chemicals can be found in Chapter 4 of Prudent Practices. The procedures described in Organic Syntheses are provided as published and are conducted at one's own risk.

  • The Comparative Study on the Rapid Decolorization of Azo, Anthraquinone and Triphenylmethane Dyes by Anaerobic Sludge
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article The Comparative Study on the Rapid Decolorization of Azo, Anthraquinone and Triphenylmethane Dyes by Anaerobic Sludge Daizong Cui †, Hao Zhang †, Rubao He and Min Zhao * College of Life Science, Northeast Forestry University, Harbin 150040, China; [email protected] (D.C.); [email protected] (H.Z.); [email protected] (R.H.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel./Fax: +86-451-8219-1513 † These authors contribute equally to this work. Academic Editor: Miklas Scholz Received: 20 August 2016; Accepted: 21 October 2016; Published: 28 October 2016 Abstract: An anaerobic sludge (AS), capable of decolorizing a variety of synthetic dyes, was acclimated and is reported here. The sludge presented a much better dye decolorizing ability than that of different individual strains. A broad spectrum of dyes could be decolorized by the sludge. Continuous decolorization tests showed that the sludge exhibited the ability to decolorize repeated additions of dye. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal rate of the dye wastewater reached 52% after 12 h of incubation. Polymerase chain reaction and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) profiles revealed that the microbial community changed as a result of varying initial concentrations of dyes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that microbial populations in the sludge belonged to the phyla Acidobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi and Proteobacteria. The degradation products of the three types of dye were identified. For azo dyes, the anaerobic sludge converted Methyl Orange to N,N-dimethylbenzene-1,4-diamine and 4-aminobenzenesulfonic acid; for triphenylmethane dyes, after Malachite Green was decolorized, the analyzed products were found to be a mixture of N,N-dimethylbenzenamine, 3-dimethyl-aminophenol and 4-dimethylaminobenzophenone; for anthraquinone dyes, two products (acetophenone and 2-methylbenzoic acid) were observed after Reactive Blue 19 decolorization.
