Intracrystalline reactivity of layered double hydroxides: Carboxylate alkylations in dry media
Garcia-Ponce, Angel Luis Prevot, Vanessa Casal, Blanca Ruiz-Hitzky, Eduardo
This work concerns the reactivity in dry media conditions, i.e. without solvents, of layered double hydroxide (LDH) solids, containing carboxylate ions in their structure, towards alkyl and benzyl halides. Reaction occurs giving the corresponding esters, with excellent yield and selectivity, and preserving the lamellar arrangement of the pristine solids. The reactions were activated by conventional thermal treatment (100 °C) or by microwave (MW) irradiation.
Nitrous Oxide as a Nucleophile in the Formation of a New Reactive Intermediate from Benzyl Cations in the Solvolysis of Benzyl Azoxytosylate
Maskill, H. Jencks, William P.
Rate and product analytical results of solvolysis of benzyl azoxytosylate in 1:1 (v/v) trifluoroethanol : water require two product-forming routes: one involves a long-lived intermediate (formed from benzyl cations and nitrous oxide) which is trappable by
