Triazine-derived quaternary ammonium salts, e.g., 4-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-4-methylmorpholinium chloride (DMTMM(Cl)), emerged as promising dehydro-condensation agents for amide synthesis, although suffering of limited stability and high costs. In the present work, a simple protocol for the synthesis of amides mediated by 2-chloro-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine (CDMT) and a tert-amine has been described and data are compared to DMTMM(Cl) and other CDMT-derived quaternary ammonium salts (DMT-Ams(X), X: − − Cl or ClO4 ). Different tert-amines (Ams) were tested for the synthesis of various DMT-Ams(Cl), but only DMTMM(Cl) could be isolated and employed for dehydro-condensation reactions, while all CDMT/tert-amine systems tested were efficient as dehydro-condensation agents. Interestingly, in best reaction conditions, CDMT and 1,4-dimethylpiperazine gave N-phenethyl benzamide in 93% yield in 15 min, with up to half the amount of tert-amine consumption.

In general, a single plastic material often possesses poor physical properties for engineering application, so that the improvement of properties has been tried in decades. In particular, one of the promising processes to modify a polymer is mixing with low-molecular-weight compounds. Recently, it was found that the addition of a specific lithium salt enhances glass transition temperature (Tg) of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), which is a typical amorphous polymer.

    1.3 Communicating Safety Information Samuella Sigmann Visit the full ACS Guide to Scholarly Communication 1.3.1 Introduction In 2011, the U.S. Chemical Safety Board (CSB) issued its first investigation of a chemical accident at an academic research institution. The incident involved the sudden detonation of a nickel hydrazine perchlorate (NHP) derivative that resulted in severe and permanent injury to a fifth-year chemistry graduate student at Texas Tech University (TTU). Student researchers were involved in a multi-institutional research project to characterize new potentially energetic materials. They decided to scale up their synthesis by two orders of magnitude to provide enough sample so that all testing could be performed on one batch but neglected to assess safety ramifications. The final CSB report for the TTU incident found in both this case and prior incidents in the same research area that (1): . No formal hazard evaluation and risk assessment had been completed to char-acterize the potential danger of the research activity and to plan for the worst-case scenario. The student sought peer advice. No policy was in place at the laboratory, department, or university level to prompt a student to seek PI advice or evaluation of experimental activities. The investigation clearly indicates that the students did not have the information they needed to prepare themselves for the increased risk posed by their decision to scale up. The CSB primarily investigates and reports on large scale incidents in the chemical and related industries where hazard evaluation and risk assessment are well established to facilitate improved safety management across the industry.

  • Structural Aspects of Organic Superconductors
    THOMAS 1. KISTENMACHER STRUCTURAL ASPECTS OF ORGANIC SUPERCONDUCTORS The structural properties of organic charge-transfer salts based on the electron donors tetramethyl­ tetraselenafulvalene (TMTSF) and bis( ethylenedithiolo )tetrathiafulvalene (BEDT -TTF) and on a va­ riety of complex inorganic anions (X) are examined systematically. For the isomorphous series of (TMTSF)2X salts, the analysis of a variety of structural data reveals that anion size and symmetry are crucial parameters. For the structurally complex (BEDT-TTF)2X salts, a crystallographic fami­ ly tree is developed that aids in the systematization of their structural and electrical properties. A particularly illuminating aspect of the crystallographic family tree is that alternate generations are populated by salts with anions of opposite inversion symmetry. For each series of salts, structurally unique properties are identified for members that exhibit ambient-pressure superconductivity. INTRODUCTION TCNQ depends on a number of variables (e.g., ioni­ In general, it is expected that the intrinsic electrical zation potentials of the donor, electron affinities of conductivity in purely organic solids will be limited the acceptor, the degree of charge transferred from the (nominally to insulators) by the large covalent energy donor to the acceptor, and the strength of conduction gap that stabilizes these materials.

One major challenge during operation and storage is the degradation of the cell constituents, which is called aging. This phenomenon drastically reduces both storage lifetime and cycle lifetime. Due to numerous aging effects, originating from both the individual LIB cell constituents as well as their interactions, a wide variety of instruments and methods are necessary for aging investigations. In particular, chromatographic methods are frequently applied for the analysis of the typically used liquid non-aqueous battery electrolytes based on organic solvents or ionic liquids. Moreover, chromatographic methods have also been recently used to investigate the composition of electrode materials. In this review, we will give an overview of the current state of chromatographic methods in the context of LIB cell research.

  • Structure, Anion, and Solvent Effects on Cation Response in ESI-MS
    B American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2019 J. Am. Soc. Mass Spectrom. (2019) 30:1750Y1757 DOI: 10.1007/s13361-019-02252-0 RESEARCH ARTICLE Structure, Anion, and Solvent Effects on Cation Response in ESI-MS Isaac Omari, Parmissa Randhawa, Jaiya Randhawa, Jenny Yu, J. Scott McIndoe Department of Chemistry, University of Victoria, PO Box 1700 STN CSC, Victoria, BC V8W 2Y2, Canada Abstract. The abundance of an ion in an electrospray ionization mass spectrum is depen- dent on many factors beyond just solution con- centration. Even in cases where the analytes of interest are permanently charged (under study here are ammonium and phosphonium ions) and do not rely on protonation or other chemical processes to acquire the necessary charge, fac- tors such as cation structure, molecular weight, solvent, and the identity of the anion can affect results. Screening of a variety of combinations of cations, anions, and solvents provided insight into some of the more important factors. Rigid cations and anions that conferred high conductivity tended to provide the highest responses. The solvent that most closely reflected actual solution composition was acetonitrile, while methanol, acetonitrile/water, and dichloromethane produced a higher degree of discrimination between different ions. Functional groups that had affinity for the solvent tended to depress response. These observations will provide predictive power when accounting for analytes that for reasons of high reactivity can not be isolated.
