We report an experimental study on the effect of solvents model SN Ar reaction between 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and morpholine in a series pure ionic liquids (IL). A significant catalytic is observed with reference to same run water, acetonitrile, other conventional solvents. The IL considered include anions, NTf2 (-) , DCN(-) SCN(-) CF3 SO3 PF6 FAP(-) cations 1-butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium ([BMIM](+) ), 1-ethyl-3-methyl-imidazolium ([EMIM](+) 1-butyl-2,3-dimethyl-imidazolium ([BM2 IM](+)...

In this work, the recovery of molybdenum(VI) (Mo) from aqueous solutions was carried out by solvent extraction (SX) using ammonium and phosphonium-based task-specific ionic liquids (TSILs) as extractants diluted in kerosene two other hydrophobic room-temperature (RTILs). Four different TSILs were used extractants: trioctylmethylammonium bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate [TOMA][D2EHP]; benzoate [TOMA][BA]; trihexyltetradecylphosphonium [P6,6,6,14][D2EHP]; [P6,6,6,14][BA]. These synthesized to...

We herein report results obtained from an integrated experimental and theoretical study on aromatic nucleophilic substitution (S(N)Ar) reactions of a series amines towards 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene in water. Specific nucleophile-electrophile interactions the title have been kinetically evaluated. The whole undergoes S(N)Ar where formation Meisenheimer complex is rate determining. Theoretical studies concerning specific are discussed detail. It found that H-bonding effects along intrinsic...

A cationic methallyl 2-pyridine-4,7-dimethoxybenzimidazole (L1) nickel precatalyst is highly selective in ethene dimerizations to 1-butene. The same catalyst isomerizes 1-butene and 1-octene internal olefins. Co-catalytic additives of B(C6F5)3 or BF3·OEt2 coordinate the increase reaction rates dimerization. ESI-MS was applied identifying a [L1NiH]+ cation as catalytically active species.

A series of ionic liquids (ILs) composed by choline (Ch) as a cation and different amino acids (AA) anions their respective aqueous mixtures were prepared using [Ch][AA] contents in range 0.4–46 mol % IL. These solvents used for the first time to achieve an eco-friendlier Paraoxon degradation. The results show that [Ch][AA]/water are effective reaction medium degrade Paraoxon, even when IL content mixture is low (0.4 IL) without need extra nucleophile. Both kinetics degradation pathways...

Pyrogallol red (PGR) presents high reactivity toward reactive (radical and nonradical) species (RS). This property of PGR, together with its characteristic spectroscopic absorption in the visible region, has allowed developing methodologies aimed at evaluating antioxidant capacity foods, beverages, human fluids. These methods are based on evaluation consumption PGR induced by RS inhibition antioxidants. However, present, there no reports regarding degradation mechanism limiting extrapolation...
