چکیده

A systematic investigation of the alcoholysis of copper(II) pivalate (piv(-)) solutions has led to a series of Cu(2), Cu(6), and Cu(16) products, depending on the alcohol used as solvent. When Pr(n)OH or Bu(n)OH was employed, the products were the clusters [Cu(16)O(4)(OH)(4)(OR)(8)(piv)(12)(ROH)] (R = Pr(n), Bu(n)) that are almost isostructural. The Cu(16) clusters are antiferromagnetically-coupled with an S = 0 spin ground state.

Response Surface Methodology for Investigating the Effects of Hydrolysis Reaction Parameters on Molecular Structure and Performance of Polyvinyl Alcohol as Primary Suspending Agent

This study presents the synthesis of polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) by solution polymerization and its partial hydrolysis to polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) using alkaline alcoholysis. The influence of the molar ratio of hydrolysis catalyst (NaOH) to PVAc and the time and temperature of the saponification reaction on the degree of hydrolysis and molecular weight of the PVA were investigated using response su...

Encapsulation of a {Cu16} cluster containing four [Cu4O4] cubanes within an isopolyoxometalate {W44} cluster.

We report a {Cu16} embedded within a {W44} cluster containing four cubane-like [Cu4O4] units within an isopolyoxotungstate (isoPOT) in a {Na4Cu4[(H2W11O38) (CH3COO)(OH)3]}4·88H2O (1) and a polyanion Cu-linked {W11} chain Na6Cu2[(H2W11O38)(CH3COO)(OH)]·26H2O (2). Electronically, the redox properties show that both compounds 1 and 2 undergo irreversible reductions resulting in the demetalation of...

The Alcoholysis Reaction of Isocyanates Giving Urethanes: Evidence for a Multimolecular Mechanism.

A kinetic and mechanistic investigation of the catalyzed alcoholysis of isocyanates was undertaken. Both experimental and theoretical results showed that the alcoholysis should be understood by a multimolecular intervention of the alcohols. The alcoholysis of isocyanate was examined experimentally for 2-propanol and cyclohexanol in low and high concentrations. It is suggested that either two or...
