ABSTRACT In order to open new routes to tlie synthesis of arom­ atic fluorides many modifications based on the classical Schiemann Reaction have appeared in the literature in the last fifteen years. These methods are discussed and a new modification is presented in this work. The substitution of hexafluorophosphoric acid for fluoboric acid in the Schiemann Reaction was found to lead in almost every case to increased yields of fluoroaromatic. A quite marked im­ provement was noted in the preparation of ortho and para- fluorobenzoic acids and in the synthesis of o-bromofluoro- benzene. A comparison of the yields obtained by the hexa- fluorophosphate method to those obtained via the normal Schiemann Reaction is included. In the course of work on the preparation of arylfluo- rides a new method for the reduction of diazonium compounds was discovered. Tetramethylurea was found to reduce these compounds. Its use has several advantages over the standard methods. The reaction is spontaneous, simple to perform, and one of the few reductions of diazonium compounds that can be carried out in non-aqueous media. Greatly increased yields of reduction product are obtained from ortho and para-aminobenzoic acids over the usual deamination proce­ dures by this method. ii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

The structure of this compound was proved by elemental analysis and hydrolysis to o-cresol and dimethyl- amine. Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

  • Preparation of 5-Bromo-2-Naphthol: the Use of a Sulfonic Acid As a Protecting and Activating Group
    Molbank 2009, M602 OPEN ACCESS molbank ISSN 1422-8599 www.mdpi.com/journal/molbank Short Note Preparation of 5-Bromo-2-naphthol: The Use of a Sulfonic Acid as a Protecting and Activating Group Renata Everett, Jillian Hamilton and Christopher Abelt * Department of Chemistry, College of William and Mary, Williamsburg, VA 23187, USA * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-mail: [email protected] Received: 2 June 2009 / Accepted: 25 June 2009 / Published: 29 June 2009 Abstract: The preparation of 5-bromo-2-naphthol (4) in three steps from 5-amino-2- naphthol (1) is described. A sulfonic acid group is introduced at the 1-position as an activating and protecting group for the Sandmeyer reaction. The sulfonate group allows for the use of only water and sulfuric acid as solvents. The sulfonic acid is introduced with three equivalents of sulfuric acid, and it is removed in 20% aq. sulfuric acid. Keywords: Sandmeyer reaction; protecting group; sulfonation; desulfonation 1. Introduction Regioselective synthesis of disubstituted naphthalenes can be challenging especially when the substituents are on different rings. We needed 5-bromo-2-naphthol (4) as a starting material for a multistep synthesis. This simple derivative is virtually unknown [1,2]. The most direct route to 4 is from 5-amino-2-naphthol (1) using the Sandmeyer reaction. Unfortunately, the Sandmeyer reaction fails with 1 because the hydroxyl group is too activating. Even when the hydroxyl group is protected as a methyl ether, the normal solution-phase Sandmeyer reaction employing cuprous salts is still problematic. In their preparation of 5-bromo-2-methoxynaphthalene, Dauben and co-workers resorted to pyrolysis of the diazonium ion double salt with HgBr2, but this procedure gives just a 30% yield of the bromide [3].

Spectroscopic and electrical studies reveal that the bromophenyl grafting imposes p-doping to both SLG and BLG. The modification of SLG by bromophenyl groups significantly reduces the hole carrier mobility and the saturation current in SLG transistors, suggesting an increase in both long-range impurity and short-range defect scattering. Unexpectedly, the bromophenyl group functionalization on BLG does not obviously increase both types of scattering, indicating that the BLG is relatively more resistant to charge- or defect-induced scattering. The results indicate that chemical modification is a simple approach to tailor the electrical properties of graphene sheets with different num- bers of layers.

The grafting procedure involves the in situ formation of diazoates in basic aqueous solution. The reactivity of calix[4]arene-tetradiazonium salts and a classical aryldiazonium salt was examined through comparative studies on gold and polymer surfaces. The surfaces were analyzed with a combination of techniques such as AFM, XPS, and ellipsometry. The results highlighted the fact that the calix[4]arene molecules are grafted as a robust and uniform monolayer both on gold and polymer surfaces, allowing a fine control over surface modification. Furthermore, the chemical postfunctionalization of the grafted calixarene platforms equipped with carboxylic-pendant groups was successfully performed with either an amine or an alcohol.

  • The Sandmeyer Reaction: Substitution for an NH2 on an Aromatic Ring
    Sandmeyer Reaction 59 The Sandmeyer Reaction: Substitution for an NH2 on an Aromatic Ring + General Sandmeier Reaction: Substitution for NH2 Group on a Benzene, via Diazonium ArN2 ArCN CuCN CuBr ArBr NaNO2, HCl HONO + - CuCl ArNH2 ArN2 Cl ArCl diazonium salt + H2O, H , heat ArOH H3PO2 ArH Intro The “Sandmeyer Reaction” is a versatile method for replacing the amine group of a primary aromatic amine with a number of different substitutents. The amine is treated with “nitrous acid” (HNO2) under acidic conditions, which produces the diazonium ion. The diazonium can then undergo substitution reaction with various reactants, particularly copper(I) substrates. Although the substitution can be simplistically viewed as a direct ionic substitution reaction (anion as nucleophile, molecular N2 as a premier leaving group), the actual mechanism is actually more complicated and involves radicals.

The diazonium ion has limited stability in water; it tends to react to give phenols (ArOH) upon standing or unnecessary warming. The principle organic side product will be the phenol resulting from competing reaction with water.

This dissertation focuses on understanding molecular transport through a membrane platform consisting of open ended CNTs with ~ 7 nm core diameter and ~ 1010 CNTs/cm2 encapsulated in an inert polymer matrix. While ionic diffusion through the membrane is close to bulk diffusion expectations, gases and liquids were respectively observed to be transported ~ 10 times faster than Knudsen diffusion and ~ 10000-100000 times faster than hydrodynamic flow predictions.

    EDEXCEL Advanced Level Edexcel IAL Chemistry Unit 2 Summary© HASAN SAYGINEL HS Redox and chemistry of the transition metals 1 Application of redox equilibria 1 TERMINOLOGY Oxidation number: The oxidation numbers of the elements in a compound are the charges they would have if the electrons in each bond of the molecule or ion belonged to the more electronegative element. The oxidation number of an ion is the number of electrons that have been removed (cation) or added (anion). The oxidation number of an uncombined element or compound is zero. • The oxidation number for an atom of any free (uncombined) element is ZERO. • The oxidation number of an element in self-combination is always ZERO. • In most hydrogen containing compounds, oxidation number of hydrogen is + 1.(Exception is when H combines with alkali metals or alkaline earth to form hydrides of metals such as: NaH, LiH, CaH2. Then, the oxidation number of H is -1). • In compounds involving the alkali metals, the elements are assigned oxidation number of +1. • In compounds involving the alkaline earth metals, the elements are assigned oxidation number of +2. • Oxygen is usually assigned an oxidation number of -2 for oxides. It has an oxidation number of -1 in peroxides (H2O2). • Fluorine always has oxidation number of -1 in compounds. The other elements in that group are usually -1 in compounds with elements of low electronegativity. • The sum of oxidation numbers of all the atoms in the formula for a neutral compound is ZERO. • The sum of oxidation numbers of an ion or complex ion is the same as the charge on that ion.
