The strong cationic Bronsted acids [H(OEt2)2][Al{OC(CF3)3}4] (1) and [H(THF)2][Al{OC(CF3)3}4] (2) were prepd. in up to 95% yield by reacting stoichiometric amts. of di-Et ether/THF solns. of Li[Al{OC(CF3)3}4] and HX (X = Cl, Br), removing the solvent, and ...
A series of imidazolium dicarboxylic acids have been prepd. from the reaction of the 1,3-bis(carboxymethyl)imidazolium zwitterion with the Bronsted acids HX (X = F, Br, Cl, ClO4). The structures of these acids have been established in the solid ...
Regioselectivity control was studied in palladium catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation of styrene in neat water with water-sol. phosphines, mostly trisulfonated triphenylphosphine, TPPTS, but also N-bis(N',N'-diethyl-2-aminoethyl)-4-aminomethylphenyl-diphenylpho ...
The ruthenium(II) hexaaqua complex [Ru(H2O)6]2+ reacts with dihydrogen under pressure to give the h2-dihydrogen ruthenium(II) pentaaqua complex [Ru(H2)(H2O)5]2+.The complex was characterized by 1H, 2H and 17O NMR: d H = -7.65 ppm, J HD = 31.2 Hz, d O = -80 ...
Starting from six industrially available fluorinated pyridines, an expedient access to all three tetrafluoropyridines, all six trifluoropyridines, and the five non-com. difluoropyridines was developed. The methods employed for the selective removal of fluo ...
The basic aqueous coordination chemistry of Ru-II has been studied using the catalytically important TPPTS phosphine (TPPTS = trisodium salt of 3,3 ',3 ''-phosphinetriylbenzenesulfonic acid) and small gas molecules (H-2, CO, N-2) as ligands. As a result, n ...
Toluene interaction with the catalysts consisting of 0.35, 0.62, 0.75 and 3.7 monolayers (ML) of VOx supported on anatase–titania, containing potassium, was studied by transient response techniques at 523–673 K. FT-Raman spectroscopy under dehydrated condi ...
4-Bromo-6-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline and 4-bromo-7-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)quinoline were selected as model substrates to explore under what conditions regiochem. exhaustive functionalization reactions can be carried out. This goal was achieved ...
The reaction of [(dropSiO)Zr(CH(2)tBu)(3)] with H-2 at 150 degreesC leads to the hydrogenolysis of the zirconium-carbon bonds to form a very reactive hydride intermediate(s), which further reacts with the surrounding siloxane ligands present at the surface ...
We investigated he effect of film orientation on piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties of (Bi(3.25)Ln(0.75))Ti3O12 (Ln=La, Nd, and Sm). c-axis-oriented films were grown on (111)Pt electrodes with nondoped Bi4Ti3O12 buffer layers. The films grown on (1 ...
