Organic Chemical Reactions

Heterogeneous hydrogenation reactions using a continuous flow high pressure device.

Several hydrogenation reactions involving O-debenzylations, aromatic nitro group reductions and reductive dethionations were investigated under continuous flow conditions in a novel, laboratory scale hydrogenation device that combines endogeneous hydrogen generation and heterogeneous Pd/C or Raney-Ni catalyst cartridges. The hydrogenation of organic compounds through addition and/or hydrogenoly...

Radical thermochemistry and organic reactions*

Most free radicals are transient species and it is therefore difficult to measure their thermochemical properties. We have used two new techniques that address this problem. Photoacoustic calorimetry was used to measureheats of formation of free radicals and thus homolytic bond strengths, while photomodulated voltammetry was used to measure their oxidation and reduction potentials. The data off...
