Reaction between propargyl radical and 1,3-butadiene to form five to seven membered rings. Theoretical study

Propargyl radical addition to 1,3-butadiene seems to be a promising channel to form 5-, 6-, and 7-membered rings. These are important steps in the growth of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and soot platelets. The reaction mechanism, involving 97 intermedi ...

Nanoparticle - Ionic Liquid Based Catalytic Systems

Alena Karakulina

In recent years ionic liquids have emerged as an important class of compounds for the synthesis of metal nanoparticles. The significant advantage of using ionic liquids is their dual role of reaction solvent and nanoparticle stabilizer. The variability of ...

Effects of dissolved organic matter on the phototransformation of aromatic amines in surface waters

Frank Jonathan Leresche

Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) is a complex mixture of thousands of organic molecules ubiquitously present in surface waters. Its influence on the photodegradation of organic contaminants is a complicated topic. For decades DOM had been mostly assumed to h ...

Unraveling the Dual Character of Sulfur Atoms on Sensitizers in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Peng Gao, Thomas Moehl, Joël Teuscher, Aswani Yella, Sadig Aghazada

Cyclometalated ruthenium sensitizers have been synthesized that differ with number of thiophene units on the auxiliary ligands. Sensitizers possessing four (SA25, SA246, and SA285) or none (SA282) sulfur atoms in their structures, were tested in solar cell ...

Access to Chiral Cyclopentane Scaffolds by Enantioselective Nickel-Catalyzed Annulations

Joachim Sven Ernst Ahlin

The cyclopentane scaffold has attracted much attention due to its ubiquity in numerous bioactive natural products such as prostaglandins and polyquinanes. However, despite a plethora of available procedures to access this motif, a lack of methods that riva ...

Synthesis of Azoimidazolium Dyes with Nitrous Oxide

Rosario Scopelliti, Kay Severin, Euro Solari, Alexander Tskhovrebov

A new method for the synthesis of industrially important azoimidazolium dyes is presented. The procedure is based on a reagent which is rarely used in the context of synthetic organic chemistry: nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”). N2O is first coupled to N-het ...

Reaction of bromine and chlorine with phenolic compounds and natural organic matter extracts - Electrophilic aromatic substitution and oxidation

Urs von Gunten, Eva Maria Rodriguez Franco

Phenolic compounds are known structural moieties of natural organic matter (NOM), and their reactivity is a key parameter for understanding the reactivity of NOM and the disinfection by-product formation during oxidative water treatment. In this study, spe ...

Development of prediction models for the reactivity of organic compounds with ozone in aqueous solution by quantum chemical calculations: Role of delocalized and localized molecular orbitals

Urs von Gunten, Minju Lee, Jeremy Samuel Arey, Saskia Gisela Zimmermann-Steffens, Kathrin Fenner

Second-order rate constants (k(O3)) for the reaction of ozone with micropollutants are essential parameters for the assessment of micropollutant elimination efficiency during ozonation in water and wastewater treatment. Prediction models for k(O3) were dev ...

Evaluation of the persistence of transformation products from ozonation of trace organic compounds - A critical review

Urs von Gunten

Ozonation is an efficient treatment system to reduce the concentration of trace organic compounds (TrOCs) from technical aquatic systems such as drinking water, wastewater and industrial water, etc. Although it is well established that ozonation generally ...

Rh(I)-Catalyzed Hydroamidation of Olefins via Selective Activation of N–H Bonds in Aliphatic Amines

Gabor Laurenczy, Yuehui Li, Matthias Beller

Hydroamidation of olefins constitutes an ideal, atom-efficient method to prepare carboxylic amides from easily available olefins, CO, and amines. So far, aliphatic amines are not suitable for these transformations. Here, we present a ligand- and additive-f ...
