A dipyrrin-supported nickel catalyst (AdFL)Ni(py) (AdFL: 1,9-di(1-adamantyl)-5-perfluorophenyldipyrrin; py: pyridine) displays productive intramolecular C-H bond amination to afford N-heterocyclic products using aliphatic azide substrates. The catalytic amination conditions are mild, requiring 0.1-2 mol% catalyst loading and operational at room temperature. The scope of C-H bond substrates was explored and benzylic, tertiary, secondary, and primary C-H bonds are successfully aminated. The amination chemoselectivity was examined using substrates featuring multiple activatable C-H bonds. Uniformly, the catalyst showcases high chemoselectivity favoring C-H bonds with lower bond dissociation energy as well as a wide range of functional group tolerance (e.g., ethers, halides, thioetheres, esters, etc.). Sequential cyclization of substrates with ester groups could be achieved, providing facile preparation of an indolizidine framework commonly found in a variety of alkaloids. The amination cyclization reaction mechanism was examined employing nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to determine the reaction kinetic profile. A large, primary intermolecular kinetic isotope effect (KIE = 31.9 ± 1.0) suggests H-atom abstraction (HAA) is the rate-determining step, indicative of H-atom tunneling being operative. The reaction rate has first order dependence in the catalyst and zeroth order in substrate, consistent with the resting state of the catalyst as the corresponding nickel iminyl radical. The presence of the nickel iminyl was determined by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy observed during catalysis. The activation parameters (ΔH? = 13.4 ± 0.5 kcal/mol; ΔS?= -24.3 ± 1.7 cal/mol·K) were measured using Eyring analysis, implying a highly ordered transition state during the HAA step. The proposed mechanism of rapid iminyl formation, rate-determining HAA, and subsequent radical recombination was corroborated by intramolecular isotope labeling experiments and theoretical calculations.

Paragraph 0033-0037; 0051, (2017/08/29)
The invention provides an aftertreatment method of grignard condensation reaction. The method comprises the following steps: after condensation reaction of aldehyde/ketone and a Grignard reagent, dropwise adding a condensation reaction solution into water for hydrolysis reaction, directly separating out generated magnesium salt in a loosen solid crystal compound form, and performing filtration so as to obtain the magnesium salt, wherein filtrate contains a target product. The aftertreatment method can be used for solving the problem that a large amount of magnesium salt waste water exists in a general grignard condensation and hydrolysis process, truly realizing zero discharge of waste water and improving the atom economy of chemical reaction.

The thermolysis of diethylketone cyclic triperoxide (3,3,6,6,9,9-hexaethyl- 1,2,4,5,7,8-hexaoxacyclononane, DEKTP) was studied in different polar solvents (ethanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol, and acetonitrile). The rate constant values (kd) are higher for reactions performed in secondary alcohols probably because of the possibility to form a cyclic adduct with the participation of the hydrogen atom bonded to the secondary carbon. The kinetic parameters were correlated with the physicochemical properties of the selected solvents. The products of the DEKTP thermal decomposition in different polar solvents support a radical-based decomposition mechanism. CSIRO 2014.

Herein, environmentally friendly surfactants based on new silanols as substitutes for the isoelectronic phosphonates were explored. Surface tensions of aqueous solutions are significantly reduced, particularly with those silanols that feature a high ratio of organic moiety to silanol. Besides their use as surfactants, their potential as coating agents for hydrophilic oxide surfaces was investigated for the example of glass substrates. In the solid-state sheet structures with silanol, double layers are present, in which the sheet spacing varies with the alkyl-chain length. Soap from sand? A synthetic entry to surfactants based on stable silanols, which provide beneficial properties comparable to established detergents without sharing their eutrophicating potential, was established (see figure).

Oxidations by the system 'hydrogen peroxide-manganese(IV) complex- acetic acid' - Part II: Hydroperoxidation and hydroxylation of alkanes in acetonitrile

Higher alkanes (cyclohexane, n-pentane, n-heptane, methylbutane, 2- and 3-methylpentanes, 3-methylhexane, cis- and trans-decalins) are oxidized at 20 °C by H2O2 in air in acetonitrile (or nitromethane) solution in the presence of the manganese(IV) salt [L2Mn2O3](PF6)2 (L = 1,4,7-trimethyl- 1,4-7-triazacyclononane) as the catalyst. An obligatory component of the reaction mixture is acetic acid. Turnover numbers attain 3300 after 2 h, the yield of oxygenated products is 46% based on the alkane. The oxidation affords initially the corresponding alkyl hydroperoxide as the predominant product, however later these compounds decompose to produce the corresponding ketones and alcohols. Regio- and bond selectivities of the reaction are high: C(1): C(2): C(3): C(4) ? 1: 40: 35: 35 and 1°: 2°: 3°is 1: (15-40): (180-300). The reaction with both isomers of decalin gives (after treatment with PPh3) alcohols hydroxylated in the tertiary positions with the cis/trans ratio of ~2 in the case of cis-decalin, and of ~30 in the case of trans-decalin (i.e. in the latter case the reaction is stereospecific). Light alkanes (methane, ethane, propane, normal butane and isobutane) can be also easily oxidized by the same reagent in acetonitrile solution, the conditions being very mild: low pressure (1-7 bar of the alkane) and low temperature (- 22 to +27°C). Catalyst turnover numbers attain 3100, the yield of oxygenated products is 22% based on the alkane. The yields of oxygenates are higher at low temperatures. The ratio of products formed (hydroperoxide: ketone: alcohol) depends very strongly on the conditions of the reaction and especially on the catalyst concentration (at higher catalyst concentration the ketone is predominantly produced).
Solvolytic Reactions in Fluorinated Alcohols. Role of Nucleophilic and Other Solvation Effects

Rate constants and products for solvolyses of chlorodiphenylmethane (Ph2CHCl) and p-methoxybenzyl chloride in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (TFE)/water and TFE/ethanol are reported, along with additional kinetic data for solvolyses of tert-butyl and other alkyl halides (RX) in 97% w/w TFE/water and in 97% w/w hexafluoropropan-2-ol/water (HFIP). Results are discussed in terms of the solvent ionizing power (Y) and the solvent nucleophilicity (N), and contributions from other solvation effects are considered. Comparisons with other SN1 solvolyses show that solvolyses of Ph2CHCl in TFE mixtures are unexpectedly fast, but product ratios are unexceptional. An additional solvation effect influences solvolyses leading to delocalized cations, and a delocalized cationic transition state for concerted elimination may explain the recent results of Takeuchi et al., (J. Org. Chem. 1997, 62, 4904) without the need to postulate additional specific solvation effects for adamantyl systems, such as Bronsted-base solvation of α- and β-hydrogen atoms; concerted elimination may occur because simple tertiary alkyl cations are too unstable to form in predominantly aqueous media. Iodide/bromide and bromide/chloride rate ratios are very similar for 1-adamantyl halides and corresponding solvolyses of tert-butyl halides; these ratios decrease in the order aq EtOH > TFE > HFIP, as expected for an electrophilic solvation effect (this effect can readily be incorporated into Y values). From kinetic data for a series of tertiary alkyl chlorides in 97% TFE/water, it is shown that the susceptibility of rates of solvolyses of RCl to N decreases with an increase in steric hindrance or with an increase in charge stabilization. Also, the small kinetic solvent isotope effects for typical solvolyses (e.g., methyl tosylate) indicate that nucleophilic attack lags behind heterolysis of the C-X bond.
Molybdenum-catalyzed epoxidations of oct-1-ene and cyclohexene with organic hydroperoxides: Steric effects of the alkyl substituents of the hydroperoxide on the reaction rate
Lempers,Van Crey,Sheldon
, p. 542 - 546 (2007/10/03)
A kinetic study of the epoxidation of oct-1-ene and cyclohexene with alkyl hydroperoxides is reported. The alkyl hydroperoxides were obtained in a moderate to high purity from the corresponding alcohols by acid-catalyzed exchange with hydrogen peroxide. The reaction rates in pseudo first-order experiments of these olefins with various alkyl hydroperoxides strongly depend on the structure of the alkyl group of the alkyl hydroperoxide. When one of the methyl groups in tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP, 4a) is substituted by an alkyl group, R, the reaction rate decreases in the order Et > Pr > Bu > t BuCH2 > tBu. Substitution of two methyl groups of TBHP as in 1-ethyl-1-methylpropyl hydroperoxide (5a) and 1-ethyl-1-methylbutyl hydroperoxide (5b) showed a further decrease in reaction rate of epoxidation. When all three methyl groups are substituted by, for example, three ethyl groups as in 1,1-diethylpropyl hydroperoxide (6a) a decrease of approximately 99% in reaction rate is observed. Introduction of a ring system in the hydroperoxide such as in cyclohexyl hydroperoxide (3), 1-methyl-cyclohexyl hydroperoxide (2) and pinane hydroperoxide (1) also showed a dramatic decrease in reaction rate of epoxidation. An investigation of relative rates of epoxidation in competition experiments of cyclohexene and hex-1-ene with 1-tert-butylcyclohexene with different alkyl hydroperoxides also showed them to depend on the structure of the alkyl group of the alkyl hydroperoxide. These results are rationalized on the basis of a mechanism involving nucleophilic attack of the olefin on an alkylperoxomolybdenum(VI) intermediate. Bulky substituents at the α-position in the alkyl hydroperoxide can seriously impede the approach of the olefin to the O-O bond.
Dimethyldioxirane reactions: Rate acceleration due to intramolecular H-bonding
Murray, Robert W.,Gu, Hong
, p. 751 - 758 (2007/10/03)
Absolute rate studies were carried out on a series of C - H insertion reactions of dimethyldioxirane (1a). The substrates were chosen so that the distance between a single tertiary C - H bond and an OH group could be varied. The measured rate constants indicate that a rate acceleration occurs when the distance between the reacting C - H bond and the OH group permits intramolecular H-bonding stabilization of the transition state. A similar study in related compounds without the OH group showed no effect of chain length on the rate of the C - H insertion reaction. A related study of the epoxidation reaction of la also found an increased rate when chain length permitted intramolecular H-bonding by an OH group.
