This paper presents the results of a combined experimental and computational study mechanisms blister formation, their effects on degradation organic light emitting devices (OLEDs). Blister formation is attributed to thermally induced mismatch stresses associated with applied bias. These result in interfacial cracking phenomena that are affected by solvents used OLED fabrication. The OLEDs firs...

[reaction: see text] The reaction of [60]fullerene with 4-substituted phenylhydrazine hydrochlorides in refluxing chlorobenzene under aerobic conditions afforded 1-(4-substituted phenyl)-1,2-dihydro[60]fullerenes, which could be subsequently oxidized to 1-acetoxyl-4-aryl-1,4-dihydro[60]fullerenes by manganese(III) acetate dihydrate in one pot. The transformation of ArC(60)-H to ArC(60)-OAc has ...

In the title compound, C24H17Cl2N3O3, the quinazolinone ring system is close to planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.0132 Å), with the imide unit almost perpendicular to it, subtending a dihedral angle of 89.1 (1)°. However, the imide unit itself is not planar, the dihedral angle between the two O=C-N components being 34.6 (1)°. The dihedral angle between the two chlorobenzene rings is 40.50 (7)°, whil...

The hydrochlorination of 4-benzylaniline in chlorobenzene to produce 4-benzylaniline hydrochloride has been examined. This has required spectroscopic and computational analysis of the solvation of gaseous HCl in the process solvent. The characterisation of the reagent and product of the hydrochlorination reaction by various techniques, including FTIR and (1)H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffract...

Industrial catalysts usually encounter great challenges in Cl· deactivation, toxic by-products generation, and stability with a long running operation for catalytic oxidation of chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs). In this research, spinel-type oxides transition metal substituted as active supported on cordierite (Crd) was identified to degradation chlorobenzene (CB). The Cu1.4Mn1.6O...

Highly enantiomerically enriched (h-arene)tricarbonylchromium(0) complexes whose chirality originates from the 1,2disubstitution pattern of the arene and the coordination of the metal to one enantiotopic face of the arene are powerful chirons in asymmetric synthesis. Robust, planar chiral arene complexes also increasingly find application as chiral ligands in asymmetric catalysis. Enantiomerica...
