General Description

2-Methyl-2-ethylbutyric acid, also known as MEBA, is an organic chemical compound belonging to the category of carboxylic acids. It consists of a methyl group (-CH3) and an ethyl group (-C2H5) attached to the second carbon of a butyric acid molecule. It is known to present a fruity, acidic, and sour odor and taste which is why it's used as a flavoring agent and in perfume and fragrance products. In terms of physical features, it is a liquid at room temperature and possesses a significantly high boiling point. Its chemical formula is C7H14O2 and has a molecular weight of 130.19 g/mol. As with many organic acids, it should be handled with care due to its corrosive properties.

Metal complex containing three different ligands

A metal complex containing three different ligands is disclosed. The metal complex contains three different ligands, and can be used as a luminescent material in a luminescent layer of an organic electroluminescent device. The novel complexes not only can achieve the device performance expected to be regulated or improved by regulating substituent groups, but also can achieve the effect of effectively controlling the rise of the evaporation temperature. An electroluminescent device and a compound formulation comprising the metal complex are also disclosed.

Auxiliary-Directed C(sp3)?H Arylation by Synergistic Photoredox and Palladium Catalysis

Herein we describe the auxiliary-directed arylation of unactivated C(sp3)?H bonds with aryldiazonium salts, which proceeds under synergistic photoredox and palladium catalysis. The site-selective arylation of aliphatic amides with α-quaternary centres is achieved with high selectivity for β-methyl C(sp3)?H bonds. This operationally simple method is compatible with carbocyclic amides, a range of aryldiazonium salts and proceeds at ambient conditions.
