silica chloride converted benzyl or tert-butyl esters to the corresponding acid chlorides and alkyl chlorides. it also converted benzyl or tert-butyl phenyl ethers to the corresponding allcyl chlorides and phenol

The title compound, C(25)H(38)O(5), was formed by the reaction of dimethyl 2-butyl-malonate and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-[(dimethyl-amino)meth-yl]phenol. In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds into chains along [010].

Unambiguous catalytic homogeneous alkane transfer dehydrogenation was observed with a group 10 metal complex catalyst, LPt(II)(cyclo-C6H10)H, supported by a lipophilic dimethyl-di(4-tert-butyl-2-pyridyl)borate anionic ligand and tert-butylethene as the sacrificial hydrogen acceptor.

The oxidation of 3,5-di-tert.-butylphenyl N-methylcarbamate (Butacarb) has been studied in the flies Musca domestica and Lucilia sericata, grass grubs Costelytra zealandica and the mouse. In all species eleven oxidation products, which were formed by hydroxylation of the tert.-butyl groups and the N-methyl group, were detected.

Vanadium haloperoxidase enzymes catalyze the oxidation of halide ions by hydrogen peroxide, producing an oxidized intermediate, which can halogenate an organic substrate or react with a second equivalent of hydrogen peroxide to produce dioxygen. Haloperoxidases are thought to be involved in the biogenesis of halogenated natural products isolated from marine organisms, including indoles and terp...

Four novel diimine rhenium(I) carbonyl complexes with the formula [Re(CO)3(L)Br], where L = 2-(4-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline (P1), 2-(4-(3,6-di-tert-butyl-9H-carbazol-9-yl)phenyl)-1H-imidazo-[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline (P2), 2-(4-(6-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)-9H-3,9-bicarbazol-9-yl)phenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline (D1), and 2-(4-(3',6'-di-tert-butyl-6-(3...

Three cationic iridium complexes containing 4,7-bis(3,6-di-tert-butyl-9H-carbazol-9-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline (L(1)) and 4,7-bis(3',6'-di-tert-butyl-6-(3,6-di-tert-butyl-9H-carbazol-9-yl)-3,9'-bi(9H-carbazol)-9-yl)-1,10-phenanthroline (L(2)) as the ancillary ligands, namely, [Ir(ppy)(2)(L(1))]PF(6) (1), [Ir(ppy)(2)(L(2))]PF(6) (2) and [Ir(oxd)(2)(L(2))]PF(6) (3) (ppy is 2-phenylpyridine, oxd is 2...

A new series of square-planar nickel(ii) donor-acceptor complexes exhibiting ligand-to-ligand charge-transfer (LL'CT) transitions have been prepared. Whereas the use of a catecholate donor ligand in conjunction with a bipyridyl acceptor ligand affords a complex that absorbs throughout the visible region, the use of a azanidophenolate donor ligands in conjunction with a bipyridyl acceptor ligand...
