Stable Diarylamine-Substituted Tris(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)methyl Radicals: One-Step Synthesis, Near-Infrared Emission, and Redox Chemistry

A mild one-step radical-to-radical synthetic strategy has been developed to directly produce a new family of diarylamine-substituted tris(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl)methyl(TTM)radicals TTM-DPA,TTM-DBPA,and TTM-DFA.The obtained TTM radical derivatives are extremely stable during chromatography purification and long-term storage in the solid state.

THE EFFECTS OF N-2-HYDROXYETHYL-N-METHYL-p-TOLUIDINE ON METHYL METHACRYLATE RADICAL POLYMERI-ZATION AND ACRYLONITRILE PHOTOINDUCED POLYMERIZATION

The effects of N-2-hydroxyethyl-N-methyl-p-toluidine (HMT) on MMA polymerization using organic peroxide as an initiator and on AN photoinduced polymerization have been investigated respectively. The kinetics of polymerization and the overall activation energy of polymerization were determined. Based on kinetics study and the end group analysis of the polymer obtained by UV spectrum method, the initiation mechanism is proposed.

PHOTOCATALYTIG DECOMPOSITION OF METHANOL BY VC1_2 AND TRANSFER OF HYDROGEN AND METHYL FREE RADICALS

The photocatalytic decomposition of methanol in the presence of vanadium dichloride and the transfer of hydrogen and methyl free radicals to the additives and dinitrogen were reported.

Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization of Methyl Methacrylate with α,α-Dichlorotoluene or α,α,α-Trichlorotoluene as Initiator

The atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of methyl methacrylate using α.α dichlorotoluene or α.α.α-trichlorotoluene as the initiator and CuCl/2.2'-bipyridine complex as the catalyst was investigated. α,α-Dichlorotoluene gave good control of molecular weight with high initiation efficiency and low polydispersity. While α.α.α-trichlorotoluene gave very slow polymerization rate. which could be improved by the addition of Cu (0) to the system.

Simultaneous Zeeman deceleration of polyatomic free radical with lithium atoms

Chemistry in the ultracold regime enables fully quantum-controlled interactions between atoms and molecules,leading to the discovery of the hidden mechanisms in chemical reactions which are usually curtained by thermal averaging in the high temperature.Recently a couple of diatomic molecules have been cooled to ultracold regime based on laser cooling techniques,but the chemistry associated with these simple molecules is highly limited.In comparison,free radicals play a major role in many important chemical reactions,but yet to be cooled to submillikelvin temperature.Here we propose a novel method of decelerating CH_(3),the simplest polyatomic free radical,with lithium atoms simultaneously by travelling wave magnetic decelerator.This scheme paves the way towards co-trapping CH_(3)and lithium,so that sympathetical cooling can be used to preparing ultracold free radical sample.
