Usage

General Description

2,5-Dimethylhexane is a chemical compound classified as an alkane and falls under the category of organic compounds. It is an isomer of octane, meaning it has the same chemical formula but a different structure. It is characterized by its structural composition of two methyl groups on the third carbon atom in a hexane chain. This organic compound appears as a colorless liquid and is primarily used in the field of chemistry for research and experimental purposes. Though it is relatively less reactive like other alkanes, it can react with strong oxidizing agents and can be a potential fire hazard under certain conditions.

Selective hydrogenation of terminal alkynes over palladium nanoparticles within the pores of amino-modified porous aromatic frameworks

Palladium catalysts, based on porous aromatic frameworks, synthesized via Suzuki cross-coupling reaction and further modified with amino groups, were prepared and tested in hydrogenation of several unsaturated compounds. Catalysts obtained were characterized by several techniques including IR spectroscopy, solid-state NMR spectroscopy, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, transmission electron microscopy, atomic emission spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was shown that the amino-groups within the structure of aromatic frameworks interact with palladium nanoparticles and enhance their selectivity towards hydrogenation of terminal alkynes.

Potassium Yttrium Ate Complexes: Synergistic Effect Enabled Reversible H2 Activation and Catalytic Hydrogenation

A potassium yttrium benzyl ate complex was generated simply by mixing an yttrium amide and potassium benzyl. The benzyl ate complex could undergo peripheral deprotonation to produce a cyclometalated complex or hydrogenation to give a hydride ate complex. The latter hydride ate complex features a (KH)2 structure protected by two yttrium amide complexes. The synergistic effect between potassium hydride and the amide ligand enables the complex to deprotonate a methyl C-H bond. The combination of intramolecular deprotonation of the hydride ate complex and hydrogenation of the cyclometalated complex constitutes a reversible H2 activation process. Using this process involving formal addition and elimination of H2, we accomplished the catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes, alkynes, and imines.

Unsaturated-compound hydrogenation nanocatalysts based on palladium and platinum particles immobilized in pores of mesoporous aromatic frameworks

Heterogeneous catalysts for the hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons have been synthesized on the basis of palladium and platinum nanoparticles immobilized in pores of mesoporous aromatic frameworks, which represent a new class of carbon supports with a diamond-like ordered structure. The resulting materials have been characterized by transmission electron microscopy, IR spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy. It has been shown that the catalyst activity in the hydrogenation reaction depends on the substrate molecule size and adsorbability on the surface of nanoparticles. Catalytic activity has been studied in the hydrogenation of a number of unsaturated compounds at temperatures of 60 and 80°C and pressures of 1.0 and 3.0 MPa.
