Activation Parameters for the Epoxidation of Substituted cis/trans Pairs of 1,2-Dialkylalkenes by Dimethyldioxirane

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 20 2006

Abstract The first activation parameter data for the reaction of dimethyldioxirane (1) with five cis/trans pairs of alkenes are reported. The epoxidation of cis -1,2-dialkylalkenes (2cis: R1 = Me, R2 = iPr; 3cis: R1 = Me, R2 = tBu; 4cis: R1 = R2 = Et; 5cis: R1 = Et, R2 = iPr; 6cis: R1 = Et, R2 = tBu) and trans -1,2-dialkylalkenes (2trans: R1 = Me, R2 = iPr; 3trans: R1 = Me, R2 = tBu; 4trans: R1 = R2 = Et; 5trans: R1 = Et, R2 = iPr; 6trans: R1 = Et, R2 = tBu) by 1 produced the corresponding epoxides, quantitatively and stereospecifically, as the sole observable products. Activation parameters of the epoxidation of the five pairs of alkenes, 2cis,6cis and 2trans,6trans, by 1 were determined using the Arrhenius method. Enhanced selectivity for cis - vs. trans -alkene epoxidation was observed at lower temperatures. In general, the ,G, terms were larger and showed more variability for the reaction of 1 with trans -alkenes as compared to those for the corresponding cis isomers. The ,H, terms mirrored trends observed in ,G, because ,S, terms for all ten of the compounds were roughly identical. The ,,G, values, a comparison of the trans to the cis isomer data, yielded positive values of 1.2 to 1.8 kcal/mol for the five sets of data and appeared to be dependent on relative steric interactions. The experimental activation parameter data, consistent with predictions from ab initio calculations based on a spiro transition-state model, showed that the lower reactivity of trans -alkenes is due to enthalpy factors.

Photovoltaic activity of Ti/MCM-41

CHEMPHYSCHEM, Issue 1 2009
Pedro Atienzar Dr.
Abstract Ti/MCM-41 is a well-known heterogeneous catalyst for alkene epoxidation with organic peroxides. This titanosilicate contains isolated titanium atoms forming part of a framework of mesoporous silica whose structure is formed by parallel hexagonal channels 3.2 nm in diameter. The surface area and porosity of Ti/MCM-41 are about 880 m2,g,1 and 0.70 cm3,g,1, respectively. These values are among the highest for any material. Herein, we show that Ti/MCM-41 exhibits photovoltaic activity. Dye-sensitized solar cells using mesoporous Ti/MCM-41 (2.8,5.7,% Ti content) as active layer, black dye N3 as photosensitizer and I3,/I, in methoxyacetonitrile as electrolyte exhibit a VOC, JSC and FF of 0.44 V, 0.045 mA,cm,2 and 0.33, respectively. These values compare well against 0.75 V, 4.1 mA,cm,2 and 0.64, respectively, measured for analogous solar cells using conventional P-25 TiO2. However, the specific current density (JSC/Ti atom) for the Ti/MCM-41 is very similar to that of P25 TiO2. [source]
