The dominant hydride precipitates have been well demonstrated to follow two types of orientation relationships (ORs) with Ti matrix: OR1 {0001}//{001}, <12¯10>//<110> and OR2 {0001}//{11¯1}, <12¯10>//<110>. Within the grains special orientations, complicated interactions different variants inside Ti-hydride diffusion layer are characterized in this work. For layer, orientations {101¯0} plane pa...

Symmetrical and unsymmetrical 3-halo- or 3-methoxy- substituted 2-dibenzoylamino- 1,4-naphthoquinone analogs were synthesized with an average yield of 45% via sodium hydride promoted bis-acylation of 2-amino-3-chloro-1,4-naphthoquinone, 2-amino-3-bromo-1,4-naphthoquinone and 2-amino-3-methoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone.

An SN2 reaction (NaI) of 1,7-di(methanesulfoxyl)heptadien-4-yl methoxy-(2-naphthyl)acetate and a tributyltin hydride reduction of 1,7-diiodo-4-yl methoxy-(2-naphthyl)acetate (2NMA) is crucial for determination of the absolute configuration of secondary alcohols.

Precocene Analogues, Deuteration A convenient route for the preparation of title compounds from benzopyran-4-one (1) and its corresponding 3,3-H2 deuterated analogue (2) is reported. Treatment of 1 or 2 with lithium aluminum deuteride followed by dehydration afforded, respectively, 4-H precocene (3c) or 3,4-H2 precocene (3b). Likewise, reduction of 2 with lithium aluminum hydride and subsequent...

The reaction of a sterically demanding sodium pyrazolate complex with n-butylsodium and diphenylsilane afforded the first well-defined molecular sodium hydride complex [(pz)6Na7H] (pz = 3,5-di-tert-butylpyrazolate) that could be structurally characterised.

The interaction of the carbonyl hydride complex Cp*Mo(PMe(3))(2)(CO)H with Brønsted (fluorinated alcohols, (CF(3))(n)CH(3-n)OH (n = 1-3), and CF(3)COOH) and Lewis (Hg(C(6)F(5))(2), BF(3).OEt(2)) acids was studied by variable temperature IR and NMR ((1)H, (31)P, (13)C) spectroscopies in combination with DFT/B3LYP calculations. Among the two functionalities potentially capable of the interaction ...

A homemade batch electrolytic cell with a Sn-Pb alloy cathode used to generate cadmium hydride. Several parameters influencing the electrochemical hydride generation and trapping on the coated graphite tubes, and atomization process have been investigated. Ir-, W-, and Zrcoated graphite tubes were used for trapping cadmium hydride. It was found that Ir-coated graphite provided the best sensitiv...

We report the sonochemical synthesis of copper(I) hydride (CuH) by the ultrasonic irradiation of a copper(II) aqueous solution. A reaction mechanism based on the reduction of copper(II) by the ultrasound-generated hydrogen atoms is discussed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a metal hydride has been synthesized through sonochemistry.

We describe the use of an air-stable iridium hydride catalyst for the isomerization of terminal epoxides into aldehydes with perfect regioselectivity. The system operates at low loadings of catalyst (0.5 mol%), is highly practical, scalable, and tolerates functional groups that would not be compatible with Lewis acids typically used in stoichiometric amounts. Evidence for a rare hydride mechani...

Hydrogen storage systems based on the combination reactor concept are promising for application of future complex hydride materials with high storage capacities and low reaction kinetics at moderate operating temperatures. In such a reactor, a fast reacting metal hydride is added to a complex hydride material in a separate compartment of the tank combining the advantages of the high storage cap...
