[reaction: see text] A carbamoylsilane is shown to carry out the direct carbamoylation of aryl chlorides, bromides, and iodides under catalysis by phosphinepalladium(0) complexes.

Synthesis of 3,1,5-benzoxadiazepines from the condensation of o-phenylenediamine (o-PDA) and acyl chlorides in the presence of a catalytic amount of various heteropolyacids (HPAs) is reported.

Palladium-catalyzed formal arylacylation of allenes using acid chlorides and arylboronic acids has been achieved. The reaction afforded the corresponding α,β-unsaturated ketones regio- and stereoselectively.

The synthesis of 1-methyl-3-(arylthio)-1H-indoles has been achieved by the photoredox reaction of N-methylindoles with readily available arylsulfonyl chlorides in moderate yields.

Acyclic diaminocarbenes are found to be useful ligands for palladium catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura, Sonogashira and Heck cross-coupling reactions of aryl/alkenyl bromides and chlorides.

The structure of anhydrous nickel, niobium and tantalum metal chlorides in ionic liquids IL) is important in the development of new electrochemical alloy deposition techniques. In order to understand the interactions of these metal ions with ionic liquids, we have investigated their structures in situ with X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS). The ionic liquid used in this study is 1-methyl-3-et...

Renewed interest in blood chlorides has been aroused by Allen,’ who has endeavored to show that salt retention is the cause of pure hypertension, and also of the hypertension in many cases of kidney disease. The estimation of this constituent has been most often conducted on the plasma, rather than on whole blood, but there would now appear to be some question as to the reliability of plasma an...
