- Preparative supercritical deuterium exchange in arenes and heteroarenes
-
Deuterated homo- and heterocyclic aromatic substrates bearing various functionalities were prepared by isotope exchange in supercritical deuterium oxide, with little or no formation of byproducts. Equilibration was attained rapidly (1-24 hrs), and deuterium exchange extended to alpha positions of alkyl homologs. Nitro- and haloarenes, thioethers, telluroethers, and some heterocyclic substrates were unstable.

- Hydrogen-deuterium exchange and rearrangement of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in dilute acid medium at elevated temperatures
-
The high temperature-dilute acid (HTDA) method has been applied to the preparation of perdeuterated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.Naphthalene (1), 1-methylnaphthalene(2), 2-methylnaphthalene (3), anthracene (4), phenanthrene (5), chrysene (6), pyrene (7), benzanthracene (8), benzopyrene (9), 1,1'-binaphthyl (10), 1,2'-binaphthyl (11), and 2,2'-binaphthyl (12) have been perdeuterated in high yield in dilute DCl-D2O solutions at elevated temperatures (240-280 deg C). 2, 3, 10, 11, and 12 also rearrange.
