Combustible ionic liquids by design: is laboratory safety another ionic liquid myth?

TL;DR: The non-flammability of ionic liquids (ILs) is often highlighted as a safety advantage of ILs over volatile organic compounds (VOCs), but the fact that many ILs are not flammable themselves does not mean that they are safe to use near fire and/or heat sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

A convenient and efficient method for incorporation of pentafluorosulfanyl (SF5) substituents into aliphatic compounds

TL;DR: Both SF5Cl and SF5Br undergo smooth, high yield addition to alkenes and alkynes under the mild free radical chain reaction conditions of triethylborane initiation at low temperature as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Preparation of the first ortho-substituted pentafluorosulfanylbenzenes

TL;DR: In this paper, the first ortho-substituted pentafluorosulfanylbenzenes was obtained by Oxidative fluorination of a series of aromatic disulfides containing different substituents ortho to the disulfide moiety.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and electrocatalytic activity of photoreduced platinum nanoparticles in a poly(ethylenimine) matrix.

TL;DR: The results indicate that PEI is an appropriate complexing reducing agent for the photochemical production of Pt NPs and a good capping agent, allowing immobilization of the NPs on the working electrode, and the electrocatalytic activity of PEI/Pt NPs compares favorably with other polymer-mediated platinum nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI

New 4-pentafluorosulfanyl and 4-perfluoroalkylthio derivatives of 1-chloro-2-nitro- and 1-chloro-2,6-dinitrobenzenes

TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of new 4-pentafluorosulfanyl and 4-perfluoroalkylthio derivatives of 1-chloro-2,6-dinitrobenzene derivatives with ethyl thioglycolate was described.
