TL;DR: Reaction of a stable digermyne with ethylene afforded the corresponding 1,2-digermacyclobutene, which furnished two different reaction products: a 1,4-digerma-bicyclo[2.2.0]hexane or a bis(germiranyl)ethane.
Abstract: Reaction of the stable digermyne BbtGeGeBbt (Bbt = 2,6-[CH(SiMe3)2]2-4-[C(SiMe3)3]-C6H2) with ethylene initially afforded the corresponding 1,2-digermacyclobutene. Depending on the reaction conditions applied, further reaction of this 1,2-digermacyclobutene with ethylene furnished two different reaction products: a 1,4-digermabicyclo[2.2.0]hexane or a bis(germiranyl)ethane. Combined experimental and theoretical results suggested that the 1,4-digermabicyclo[2.2.0]hexane and the bis(germiranyl)ethane are the thermodynamic and kinetic reaction products, respectively. A reaction mechanism in agreement with these results was proposed.

TL;DR: In this article, the ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium methyl sulfate [BMIM][MeSO4] was used as an extraction solvent in petrochemical processes for the removal of hexane from its mixture with ethanol.

TL;DR: It was found that the conversion of phenolic acids strongly depended on the proportions of hexane and butanone, and the conversions of ferulic and caffeic acids under the same conditions were much lower than was that of DHCA, indicating the suitability of the RSM model.

TL;DR: Direct esterifications using a nylon-immobilized lipase from Candida cylindracea using a packed-bed reactor was operated successfully for the continuous synthesis of esters, and the steady-state performance could be accurately predicted on the basis of batch reaction experiments.
