    I. MATRIX ISOLATION OF 1,1-DIAZENES II. DISTANCE, TEMPERATURE, AND DYNAMIC SOLVENT EFFECTS ON ELECTRON TRANSFER REACTIONS Thesis by James Edward Hanson In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 1990 (Submitted September 8, 1989) 11 © 1990 James Edward Hanson All rights Reserved ill Acknowledgements I would like to thank my advisor, Peter Dervan , for his enthusiasm and support during my studies at Caltech. I would also like to thank Professor John Hopfield for his availability when I needed assistance with the theoretical complexities of the electron transfer work. I am deeply indebted to Lutfur "Zeta" Khundkar and Joe Perry for their expert assistance and collaboration in making measurements and understanding the implications of the results. Al Sylwester was extremely helpful in my first year as I began to work on 1,1-diazenes, and Alvin Joran and Burt Leland made my transition to the electron transfer project relatively simple. I should also thank those in the Dervan group who helped me with synthetic problems, especially John Griffin and Warren Wade. I appreciated discussions with some of the electron transfer experts at Caltech: Professor Rudy Marcus, Dave Beratan, Jose Onuchic, Dave Malerba, and Tad Fox. There were many times when the men in the chemistry shops provided invaluable assistance--you guys are the best! There are many who made my stay at Caltech enjoyable--I'll remember skiing with John and Linda Griffin and Heinz Moser, basketball (and marathons!) with Dave Kaisaki, tennis with Erich Uffelmann, and late night conversations with Kevin Luebke.

Murray and Yogesh Surendranath* Department of Chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139, United States. KEYWORDS Hydrogenation, Carbon Black, Carbocatalysis, Diimide, Alkene ABSTRACT: Commercially available carbon blacks serve as effective metal-free catalysts for the selective hydrogenation of car- bon-carbon multiple bonds under aerobic conditions using hydrazine as the terminal reductant. The reaction, which proceeds through a putative diimide intermediate, displays high tolerance to a variety of functional groups, including those sensitive to nu- cleophilic displacement by hydrazine, aerobic oxidation, or hydrazine-mediated reduction. Hydrazine chemisorbs strongly to the carbon surface, attenuating its native oxidative reactivity and allowing for selective hydrogenation. The catalytic sequence estab- lished here effectively umpolungs the reactivity of carbon, thereby enabling the use of this low cost material in selective reduction catalysis.

Each parameter in the system was optimized to obtain maximum hydrogenation degree such as the mass of boric acid, mole ratio of HH: H2O2, reaction time and reaction temperature. As a result, the highest degree of hydrogenation was achieved at 91.2% using a molar ratio HH: H2O2 of 2:3, in the presence of boric acid as a promoter at 60 °C for 8 hours. In this research, we report on possible side reactions that led to lowering the hydrogenated rubber product. Reactivity of diimide species as well as decomposition of hydrogen peroxide were postulated based on literature reviews to be one of the factors hindering hydrogenation of LNR. The presence of side reactions such as degradation, cyclization, and crosslinking had been confirmed by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), and swelling test, respectively.
