The reaction of hypochlorous acid (HOCl) with hydrogen peroxide is known to generate stoichiometric amounts of singlet molecular oxygen [O2 (1Deltag)]. This study shows that HOCl can also react with linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LAOOH), generating O2 (1Deltag) with a yield of 13 +/- 2% at physiological pH. Characteristic light emission at 1,270 nm, corresponding to O2 (1Deltag) monomolecular dec...

It has been found that tissues fixed for electron microscopy and dehydrated in acetone can be embedded in mixtures of n-butyl methacrylate and polyester resin. Activation with 1 per cent tert-butyl hydroperoxide followed by 12 to 48 hours at 60 degrees C produces blocks that section well with glass knives. The ribbons are cleared of methacrylate by heat (200-250 degrees C for 1 hour) and/or imm...

The primary phosphine 3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-phosphinophenol has been prepared and characterized. Oddly, the presence of a sterically demanding tert-butyl group adjacent to the PH2 centre renders the molecule very sensitive to loss of PH3 and formation of 3,5-di-tert-butyl-phenol in chloroform solutions in the presence of air. The process was catalyzed by HCl and dependent on the purity of CDCl3. ...

Abstract The peracetalization of a β-hydroxy hydroperoxide derived from methyl oleate was studied using benzaldehyde as model substrate to give the corresponding fatty 1,2,4-trioxane. desired product obtained mixture regioisomers but only one diastereoisomer each formed. nature acid catalyst and both p-toluene sulfonic (PTSA) Amberlyst A35 (A35) were found be efficient homogeneous heterogeneous...

VT transition from the high-spin CoII to low-spin CoIII state was observed for complex (N-cyclo-hexyl-2-iminopyridine)(3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-benzosemiquinonato)(3,6-di-tert-butyl-catecholato)cobalt in both solid and liquid form. For first time we demonstrate a low-temperature nanosecond pump-probe XANES experiment revealing valence tautomeric solution of Co complex. Reversible induced under tempe...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound [Mn(NCS)(2)(C(9)H(13)N)(4)] consists of one Mn(II) cation located on a center of inversion, one thio-cyanato anion, one 3-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand and one 4-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand in general positions. The tert-butyl group of the 4-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.60:0.40 ratio. The Mn(II) cation is coordinate...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Cd(NCS)(2)(C(9)H(13)N)(4)], consists of one Cd(II) cation located on a centre of inversion, one thio-cyanate anion, one 3-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand and one 4-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand in general positions. The tert-butyl group of the 4-tert-butyl-pyridine ligand is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.25:0.75 ratio and was refined using a split ...

Abstract 4‐Azafluorenones are typically obtained by acid‐mediated cyclization of 2‐arylnicotinates. However, this approach fails to give 5‐oxygenated 4‐azafluorenones due lactonization 2‐(2‐alkoxy)phenylnicotinate intermediates. Herein, we report two modifications established approaches 4‐azafluorenone synthesis that, either in combination or themselves, enable the flexible preparation with div...
