Abstract In the presence of an alkene, three different modes of photocycloaddition with benzene derivatives can occur; the [2 + 2] or ortho, the [3 + 2] or meta, and the [4 + 2] or para photocycloaddition. This short review aims to demonstrate the synthetic power of these photocycloadditions. Introduction Photocycloadditions occur in a variety of modes [1]. The best In the presence of an alkene, three different modes of photo- known representatives are undoubtedly the [2 + 2] photocyclo- cycloaddition with benzene derivatives can occur, viz. the addition, forming either cyclobutanes or four-membered hetero- [2 + 2] or ortho, the [3 + 2] or meta, and the [4 + 2] or para cycles (as in the Paternò–Büchi reaction), whilst excited-state photocycloaddition (Scheme 2). The descriptors ortho, meta [4 + 4] cycloadditions can also occur to afford cyclooctadiene and para only indicate the connectivity to the aromatic ring, and compounds. On the other hand, the well-known thermal [4 + 2] do not have any implication with regard to the reaction mecha- cycloaddition (Diels–Alder reaction) is only very rarely nism. -
Removal of NO and SO2 by Pulsed Corona Discharge Process
Korean J. Chem. Eng., 18(3), 308-316 (2001) Removal of NO and SO2 by Pulsed Corona Discharge Process Young Sun Mok†, Ho Won Lee, Young Jin Hyun, Sung Won Ham*, Jae Hak Kim** and In-Sik Nam** Department of Chemical Engineering, Cheju National University, Ara, Cheju 690-756, Korea *Department of Chemical Engineering, Kyungil University, Hayang, Kyungbuk 712-701, Korea **Department of Chemical Engineering, Pohang University of Science & Technology, Pohang, Kyungbuk 790-784, Korea (Received 6 September 2000 • accepted 9 March 2001) − Abstract Overall examination was made on the removal of NO and SO2 by pulsed corona discharge process. The mechanism for the removal of NO was found to largely depend on the gas composition. In the absence of oxygen, most of the NO removed was reduced to N2; on the other hand, oxidation of NO to NO2 was dominant in the presence of oxygen even when the content was low. Water vapor was an important ingredient for the oxidation of NO2 to nitric acid rather than that of NO to NO2. The removal of NO only slightly increased with the concentration of ammonia while the effect of ammonia on the removal of SO2 was very significant. The energy density (power delivered/feed gas flow rate) can be a measure for the degree of removal of NO. Regardless of the applied voltage and the flow rate of the feed gas stream, the amount of NO removed was identical at the same energy density. The production of N2O increased with the pulse repetition rate, and the presence of NH3 and SO2 enhanced it. -
INF.20 Economic Commission for Europe Inland Transport Committee Definition Of
INF.20 Economic Commission for Europe Inland Transport Committee Working Party on the Transport of Dangerous Goods 6 March 2012 Joint Meeting of the RID Committee of Experts and the Working Party on the Transport of Dangerous Goods Bern, 19–23 March 2012 Item 5(a) of the provisional agenda Proposals for amendments to RID/ADR/ADN: pending issues Definition of LPG Transmitted by the Government of Switzerland We have observed contradictions in the definition of LPG adopted by the Joint Meeting at its Autumn 2010 session (ECE/TRANS/WP.15/AC.1/120, Annex II) as well as in the German translation we have discussed in Erfurt during the Conference of translation and edition of the German ADR. The actual definitions in each language are the following: ""Gaz de pétrole liquéfié (GPL)", un gaz liquéfié à faible pression contenant un ou plusieurs hydrocarbures légers qui sont affectés aux numéros ONU 1011, 1075, 1965, 1969 ou 1978 seulement et qui est principalement constitué de propane, de propène, de butane, des isomères du butane, de butène avec des traces d’autres gaz d’hydrocarbures. “‘Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)’ means a low pressure liquefied gas composed of one or more light hydrocarbons which are assigned to UN Nos. 1011, 1075, 1965, 1969 or 1978 only and which consists mainly of propane, propene, butane, butane isomers, butene with traces of other hydrocarbon gases. „Flüssiggas (LPG)*: Unter geringem Druck verflüssigtes Gas, das aus einem oder mehreren leichten Kohlenwasserstoffen besteht, die nur der UN-Nummer 1011, 1075, 1965, 1969 oder 1978 zugeordnet sind und das hauptsächlich aus Propan, Propen, Butan, Butan-Isomeren und Buten mit Spuren anderer Kohlenwasserstoffgase besteht.“ One important point is different between French from one side and English and German from the other side, that is that in French the repetition of the “de” in the enumeration of possible gases brings to the conclusion that the main constituent of the LPG is one of the listed gases. -
Aromatic Compounds
OCR Chemistry A Aromatic Compounds Aromatic Compounds Naming Aromatic compounds contain one or more benzene rings (while aliphatic compounds do not contain benzene rings). Another term for a compound containing a benzene ring is arene. The basic benzene ring, C6H6 is commonly represented as a hexagon with a ring inside. You should be aware that there is a hydrogen at each corner although this is not normally shown. N.B. it is OK to use benzene in this form in structural formulae too! Arenes occur naturally in many substances, and are present in coal and crude oil. Aspirin, for example, is an aromatic compound, an arene: HO O O CH 3 O Naming of substances based on benzene follows familiar rules: CH Br NO 3 2 benzene methylbenzene bromobenzene nitrobenzene Numbers are needed to identify the positions of substituents. The carbons around the ring are numbered from 1-6 consecutively and the name which gives the lowest number(s) is chosen: CH3 CH3 Cl Br Cl Br 2-bromomethylbenzene 4-bromomethylbenzene 1,2-dichlorobenzene Cl Cl Cl 1,3,5-trichlorobenzene Page 1 OCR Chemistry A Aromatic Compounds Determining the structure of benzene (historical) 1825 – substance first isolated by Michael Faraday, who also determined its empirical formula as CH 1834 – RFM of 78 and molecular formula of C6H6 determined H H H C C C Much speculation over the structure. Many suggested structures like: C C C H H H 1865 – Kekulé publishes suggestion of a ring with alternating double and single bonds: H H C H C C displayed C C skeletal H C H H This model persisted until 1922, but not all chemists accepted the structure because it failed to explain the chemical and physical properties of benzene fully: if C=C bonds were present as Kekulé proposed, then benzene would react like alkenes. -
Introduction to Alkenes and Alkynes in an Alkane, All Covalent Bonds
Introduction to Alkenes and Alkynes In an alkane, all covalent bonds between carbon were σ (σ bonds are defined as bonds where the electron density is symmetric about the internuclear axis) In an alkene, however, only three σ bonds are formed from the alkene carbon -the carbon thus adopts an sp2 hybridization Ethene (common name ethylene) has a molecular formula of CH2CH2 Each carbon is sp2 hybridized with a σ bond to two hydrogens and the other carbon Hybridized orbital allows stronger bonds due to more overlap H H C C H H Structure of Ethylene In addition to the σ framework of ethylene, each carbon has an atomic p orbital not used in hybridization The two p orbitals (each with one electron) overlap to form a π bond (p bonds are not symmetric about the internuclear axis) π bonds are not as strong as σ bonds (in ethylene, the σ bond is ~90 Kcal/mol and the π bond is ~66 Kcal/mol) Thus while σ bonds are stable and very few reactions occur with C-C bonds, π bonds are much more reactive and many reactions occur with C=C π bonds Nomenclature of Alkenes August Wilhelm Hofmann’s attempt for systematic hydrocarbon nomenclature (1866) Attempted to use a systematic name by naming all possible structures with 4 carbons Quartane a alkane C4H10 Quartyl C4H9 Quartene e alkene C4H8 Quartenyl C4H7 Quartine i alkine → alkyne C4H6 Quartinyl C4H5 Quartone o C4H4 Quartonyl C4H3 Quartune u C4H2 Quartunyl C4H1 Wanted to use Quart from the Latin for 4 – this method was not embraced and BUT has remained Used English order of vowels, however, to name the groups -
Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just Like an Alkene, Benzene Has Clouds of Electrons Above and Below Its Sigma Bond Framework
Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just like an alkene, benzene has clouds of electrons above and below its sigma bond framework. Although the electrons are in a stable aromatic system, they are still available for reaction with strong electrophiles. This generates a carbocation which is resonance stabilized (but not aromatic). This cation is called a sigma complex because the electrophile is joined to the benzene ring through a new sigma bond. The sigma complex (also called an arenium ion) is not aromatic since it contains an sp3 carbon (which disrupts the required loop of p orbitals). Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page1 The loss of aromaticity required to form the sigma complex explains the highly endothermic nature of the first step. (That is why we require strong electrophiles for reaction). The sigma complex wishes to regain its aromaticity, and it may do so by either a reversal of the first step (i.e. regenerate the starting material) or by loss of the proton on the sp3 carbon (leading to a substitution product). When a reaction proceeds this way, it is electrophilic aromatic substitution. There are a wide variety of electrophiles that can be introduced into a benzene ring in this way, and so electrophilic aromatic substitution is a very important method for the synthesis of substituted aromatic compounds. Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page2 Bromination of Benzene Bromination follows the same general mechanism for the electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS). Bromine itself is not electrophilic enough to react with benzene. But the addition of a strong Lewis acid (electron pair acceptor), such as FeBr3, catalyses the reaction, and leads to the substitution product. -
Chapter 7 - Alkenes and Alkynes I
Andrew Rosen Chapter 7 - Alkenes and Alkynes I 7.1 - Introduction - The simplest member of the alkenes has the common name of ethylene while the simplest member of the alkyne family has the common name of acetylene 7.2 - The (E)-(Z) System for Designating Alkene Diastereomers - To determine E or Z, look at the two groups attached to one carbon atom of the double bond and decide which has higher priority. Then, repeat this at the other carbon atom. This system is not used for cycloalkenes - If the two groups of higher priority are on the same side of the double bond, the alkene is designated Z. If the two groups of higher priority are on opposite sides of the double bond, the alkene is designated E - Hydrogenation is a syn/cis addition 7.3 - Relative Stabilities of Alkenes - The trans isomer is generally more stable than the cis isomer due to electron repulsions - The addition of hydrogen to an alkene, hydrogenation, is exothermic (heat of hydrogenation) - The greater number of attached alkyl groups, the greater the stability of an alkene 7.5 - Synthesis of Alkenes via Elimination Reactions, 7.6 - Dehydrohalogenation of Alkyl Halides How to Favor E2: - Reaction conditions that favor elimination by E1 should be avoided due to the highly competitive SN 1 mechanism - To favor E2, a secondary or tertiary alkyl halide should be used - If there is only a possibility for a primary alkyl halide, use a bulky base - Use a higher concentration of a strong and nonpolarizable base, like an alkoxide - EtONa=EtOH favors the more substituted double bond -

IN THIS CHAPTER, we begin our systematic study of organic reactions and their mecha- nisms. Reaction mechanisms are step-by-step descriptions of how reactions proceed and are one of the most important unifying concepts in organic chemistry. We use the reactions of alkenes as the vehicle to introduce this concept. 129 130 CHAPTER 5 Reactions of Alkenes and Alkynes 5.1 What Are the Characteristic Reactions of Alkenes? The most characteristic reaction of alkenes is addition to the carbon–carbon double bond in such a way that the pi bond is broken and, in its place, sigma bonds are formed to two new atoms or groups of atoms. Several examples of reactions at the carbon–carbon double bond are shown in Table 5.1, along with the descriptive name(s) associated with each. -
INVESTIGATION of POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS (Pahs) on DRY FLUE GAS DESULFURIZATION (FGD) BY-PRODUCTS
INVESTIGATION OF POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS (PAHs) ON DRY FLUE GAS DESULFURIZATION (FGD) BY-PRODUCTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ping Sun, M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Linda Weavers, Adviser Professor Harold Walker Professor Patrick Hatcher Adviser Professor Yu-Ping Chin Civil Engineering Graduate Program ABSTRACT The primary goal of this research was to examine polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) on dry FGD by-products to determine environmentally safe reuse options of this material. Due to the lack of information on the analytical procedures for measuring PAHs on FGD by-products, our initial work focused on analytical method development. Comparison of the traditional Soxhlet extraction, automatic Soxhlet extraction, and ultrasonic extraction was conducted to optimize the extraction of PAHs from lime spray dryer (LSD) ash (a common dry FGD by-product). Due to the short extraction time, ultrasonic extraction was further optimized by testing different organic solvents. Ultrasonic extraction with toluene as the solvent turned out to be a fast and efficient method to extract PAHs from LSD ash. The possible reactions of PAHs under standard ultrasonic extraction conditions were then studied to address concern over the possible degradation of PAHs by ultrasound. By sonicating model PAHs including naphthalene, phenanthrene and pyrene in organic solutions, extraction parameters including solvent type, solute concentration, and sonication time on reactions of PAHs were examined. A hexane: acetone (1:1 V/V) ii mixture resulted in less PAH degradation than a dichloromethane (DCM): acetone (1:1 V/V) mixture. -

Me2si(Benz[E]Indenyl)
Propene Polymerization Using Homogeneous MAO-Activated Metallocene Catalysts: Me2Si(Benz[e]lndenyI)2ZrClu'MAO vs. Me2Si(2-Me-Benz[e]lndenyI)2ZrClu'MAO STEPHAN JUNGLlNG,t ROLF MULHAUPT,b UDO STEHLlNG/ HANS-HERBERT BRINTZINGER/ DAVID FISCHER/ and FRANZ LANGHAUSER3 'Institut fOr Makromolekulare Chemie and Freiburger Materialforschungszentrum der Albert-Ludwigs-Universitat Freiburg, 0-79104 Freiburg, Germany; 2Fakultat fOr Chemie, Universitat Konstanz, 0-78434 Konstanz, Germany; and 3BASF AG Abteilung ZKP, 0-67056 Ludwigshafen, Germany SYNOPSIS Propene was polymerized at 40°C and 2-bar propene in toluene using methylalumoxane (MAO) activated rac-Me2Si(Benz[elIndenyl)2ZrCI2 (BI) and rac-Me2Si(2-Me Benz[elIndenyl)2ZrCl2 (MBI). Catalyst BI/MAO polymerizes propene with high activity to afford low molecular weight polypropylene, whereas MBI/MAO is less active and produces high molecular weight polypropylene. Variation of reaction conditions such as propene concentration, temperature, concentration of catalyst components, and addition of hydrogen reveals that the lower molecular weight polypropylene produced with BI/MAO results from chain transfer to propene monomer following a 2,1-insertion. A large fraction of both me tallocene catalyst systems is deactivated upon 2,1-insertion. Such dormant sites can be reactivated by H2-addition, which affords active metallocene hydrides. This effect of H2- addition is reflected by a decreasing content of head-to-head enchainment and the formation of polypropylene with n-butyl end groups. Both catalysts show a strong dependence of activity on propene concentration that indicates a formal reaction order of 1. 7 with respect to propene. MBI/MAO shows a much higher dependence of the activity on temperature than BI/MAO.
