TL;DR: In this article, a series of complex structures were assigned a dimeric structure on the basis of 1H and 13C n.m.r. data, and by crystal and molecular structural determinations of [{M(η-C5H5)2Me}2] and pyridine.
Abstract: The reaction of [(η-C5H5)2MMe2AlMe2](M = Y, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, or Yb) and pyridine in equimolar amounts gives a series of complexes [{M(η-C5H5)2Me}2] assigned a dimeric structure on the basis of 1H and 13C n.m.r. (M = Y) and i.r. data, and by crystal and molecular structural determinations of [{M(η-C5H5)2Me}2](M = Y or Yb). A similar reaction of [(η-C5H5)2ScMe2AlMe2] with a Lewis base L gives [Sc(η-C5H5)2Me(L)](L = pyridine or tetrahydrofuran). Other reactions described are of [{Y(η-C5H5)2Me}2] with Lewis bases (an amine, phosphine, or phosphine oxide) or with a Lewis acid [Al2MenCl6 –n](n= 2, 4, or 6). A single-crystal X-ray analysis of the isostructural [{M(η-C5H5)2Me}2] has been carried out to R 0.048 (Y) or 0.066 (Yb) and R′ 0.055 (Y) or 0.061 (Yb); the complexes have an approximately tetrahedral metal environment (space group P21/n) with the YMe2Y unit in the yttrium complex remarkably similar to AlMe2Al in [Al2Me6]. Important average bond lengths (A) and angles for the yttrium complex (Yb in parentheses) are: Y–C (cyclopentadienyl) 2.655(18)[2.613(13)] and Y–Me 2.545(11)[2.511(35)]; Y–C–Y 87.7(3)[86.6(3)] and Me–Y–Me 92.3(3)[93.4(4)].

TL;DR: A component of a polymerization catalyst is prepared by reacting an organo-magnesium halide with a solid, inorganic oxide, then reacting the product with a Lewis Base compound, particularly an ester and finally with titanium tetrachloride.
Abstract: A component of a polymerization catalyst is prepared by reacting an organo-magnesium halide with a solid, inorganic oxide, then reacting the product with a Lewis Base compound, particularly an ester and finally with titanium tetrachloride. After reacting the organo-magnesium halide with the inorganic oxide it may be treated with a halogenating agent before it is reacted with the Lewis Base compound. The product obtained is combined with an organo-aluminium compound preferably together with a Lewis Base and used to polymerize an olefine monomer. The catalyst has a high activity, is stereospecific and has a lower proportion of halogen than some other catalyst systems.

TL;DR: The reaction of 2-(trimethylsiloxy)furan (1) with orthocarboxylic esters, acetals, and acylal in the presence of Lewis acids afforded the corresponding 4-substituted 2-buten-4-olides as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The reaction of 2-(trimethylsiloxy)furan (1) with orthocarboxylic esters, acetals, and acylal in the presence of Lewis acids afforded the corresponding 4-substituted 2-buten-4-olides. The reaction of 5-methyl-2-(trimethyl-siloxy)furan with orthocarboxylic esters gave unstable 2-substituted 3-penten-4-olides as major products; these gave 2,5-alkanediones upon hydrolysis. The furan (1) also reacted with 1,1-diacetoxy-2-butene to give a mixture of 5-acetoxy-2,6-octadien-4-olide and 7-acetoxy-5-methyl-2,6-heptadien-4-olide. From the former compound, nigrosporalactone was synthesized.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, Li/5M S cells were characterized with regard to capacity, rate, and rechargeability, showing that 75% cathode utilization is possible at 4 mA/cm2 (C/3-C/4 rate).
Abstract: Prototype cells of the configuration Li/~5M S as , THF, have been characterized with regard to capacity, rate, and rechargeability. Virtually 100% of the theoretical capacity could be realized at 50°C at rates below 1.0 mA/cm2. In high rate cell configurations, 75% cathode utilization is possible at ~4 mA/cm2 (C/3–C/4 rate). The capacities at high rate are enhanced by Lewis acids, although the ultimate cause of rate limitation is passivation of the current collector by discharge products. The self‐discharge rates of Li in contact with 4–5M S (as ) solutions reveal capacity losses of 0.5%/day at 25°C to 4.4%/day at 71°C. Based on the experimental results, a practical energy density of ~300 W‐hr kg−1 is possible using a standard cell design. Results on the battery's rechargeability are briefly reviewed.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the kinetic behavior suggests that the so-called sodium perborate is not peroxoborate but borate peroxyhydrate, H2O2 acquiring stronger electrophilicity by the coordination with boric acid which acts as Lewis acid rather than protic acid.
Abstract: Perborate oxidation of p-chloroaniline to 4,4′-dichloroazobenzene and H2O2–boric acid hydroxylation of aromatics have been studied. The kinetic behavior suggests that the so-called sodium perborate is not peroxoborate but borate peroxyhydrate, H2O2 acquiring stronger electrophilicity by the coordination with boric acid which acts as Lewis acid rather than protic acid.
