  • Estimating the Densities of Benzene-Derived Explosives Using Atomic Volumes
    Journal of Molecular Modeling (2018) 24: 50 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00894-018-3588-9 ORIGINAL PAPER Estimating the densities of benzene-derived explosives using atomic volumes Vikas D. Ghule1 & Ayushi Nirwan1 & Alka Devi1 Received: 7 November 2017 /Accepted: 8 January 2018 /Published online: 9 February 2018 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract The application of average atomic volumes to predict the crystal densities of benzene-derived energetic compounds of general formula CaHbNcOd is presented, along with the reliability of this method. The densities of 119 neutral nitrobenzenes, energetic salts, and cocrystals with diverse compositions were estimated and compared with experimental data. Of the 74 nitrobenzenes for which direct comparisons could be made, the % error in the estimated density was within 0–3% for 54 compounds, 3–5% for 12 compounds, and 5–8% for the remaining 8 compounds. Among 45 energetic salts and cocrystals, the % error in the estimated density was within 0–3% for 25 compounds, 3–5% for 13 compounds, and 5–7.4% for 7 compounds. The absolute error surpassed 0.05 g/cm3 for 27 of the 119 compounds (22%). The largest errors occurred for compounds containing fused rings and for compounds with three –NH2 or –OH groups. Overall, the present approach for estimating the densities of benzene- derived explosives with different functional groups was found to be reliable. Keywords Density . Atomic volume . Explosive .

Berkowitz * Herein we describe a formal thiocyanopalladation/carbocyclization transformation and its parametrization and optimization using a new elevated temperature plate-based version of our visual colorimetric enzymatic screening method for reaction discovery. The carbocyclization step leads to C–SCN bond formation in tandem with C–C bond construction and is highly stereoselective, showing nearly absolute 1,2-anti-stereoinduction (5 examples) for substrates bearing allylic substitution, and nearly absolute 1,3- syn-stereoinduction (16 examples) for substrates bearing propargylic substitution. Based upon these high levels of stereoinduction, the dependence of the 1,2-stereoinduction upon cyclization substrate Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Unported Licence. geometry, and the generally high preference for the transoid vinyl thiocyanate alkene geometry, a mechanistic model is proposed, involving (i) Pd(II)-enyne coordination, (ii) thiocyanopalladation, (iii) migratory insertion and (iv) b-elimination. Examples of transition metal-mediated C–SCN bond formation that proceed smoothly on unactivated substrates and allow for preservation of the SCN moiety are lacking. Yet, the thiocyanate functionality

  • Chemical Compatibility Chart for Plazit-Polygal PLAZGAL SAN Sheets
    Chemical Compatibility Chart for Plazit-Polygal PLAZGAL SAN Sheets This table gives an indication of the chemical resistance of PLAZGAL SAN sheets to a range of common chemicals at 20ºC. PLAZGAL SAN sheets can be safely used with most chemicals and components such as alkalis and diluted acids, as well as with aqueous salt solutions. However, SAN has limited resistance to alcohols, aliphatic hydrocarbons, oils and fats, and is not resistant to concentrated mineral acids, aromatic and/ or halogenated hydrocarbons, esters, ethers, ketones. Important note: the chemical stability of PLAZGAL SAN sheets depends on many factors such as the concentration of the chemical agent, internal stresses in the sheets and exposure temperature, in certain situations the sheets can develop stress cracks when even when exposed to chemicals to which SAN is usually resistant. The resistance of PLAZGAL SAN sheets is indicated in the table below.
