The effects of reaction temperature, time, catalyst and solvent amount on the yield of 2a and 2b were investigated. The results show that chlorination of 1a and 1b under optimal conditions gives 2a and 2b in 95.5% and 99.2% yield respectively. The given method is facile and suitable for large-scale synthesis.展开更多

The products were characterized by GPC, DSC, and 1H-NMR. Poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) with molecular weight Mw: 32875 was obtained when thionyl chloride was used, while low molecular weight PLLA Mw: 7350 was yielded without thionyl chloride. Effects of the concentration of thionyl chloride, polymerization time and bases on the molecular weight of poly (lactic acid) were investigated. In DSC scans the glass transition temperatures (Tg) of the resulting polymers varied from 25.3 to 57.6℃, and the Tg of poly(L-lactic acid) was higher than that of poly (D,L-lactic acid) (PDLLA). The melting points of poly (L-lactic acid) and poly (D, L-lactic acid) could not be found unless the polymers were obtained by thionyl chloride activator.展开更多

We discuss the use of different precursors and the addition to gold of a secondary metal as methods which attempt to improve these catalysts, and consider the nature of the active gold species. The vast majority of poly vinyl chloride (PVC) produced globally still uses a mercuric chloride as a cata‐lyst, despite the environmental problems associated with it. Due to the agreement by the Chinese government to remove mercury usage in the PVC industry over the course of the next few years there is an obvious need to find a replacement catalyst;the potential use of gold for this process has been well known for several decades and to date gold seems to be the best candidate for this, pri‐marily due to its superior selectivity when compared to other metals.展开更多

It is of great significance for the quantitative modification, restoration of solid surface, identification of the physical and chemical nature of surface and the preparation of new catalyst. The production of R 3 Sn-O-MCM-41 (R 3 SnM) was obtained by heating tributyltin chloride and Al-MCM-41 mixture at 170 °C for 5 h under stirring in nitrogen atmosphere. The composition, structure and surface physical and chemical properties of the samples were characterized by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), 13 C, 119 Sn, 29 Si and 27 Al solid state NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectra, in-situ pyridine infrared spectroscopy (Py-IR), N 2 adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), etc. The results of ICP and organic elemental analysis shows that the grafting yield w Sn was 6.46% for R 3 SnM. H 0 (the negative logarithm of the acid concentration)and the number of acid sites for R 3 SnM respectively were 2.77-0.99 and 4.8 mmol·g-1 by the Hammett method. N 2 adsorption-desorption, XRD, TEM analysis showed that R 3 SnM with ordered hexagonal mesopore structure, resulted in the decease of surface areas and pore size as well as the increase of mesoporous volume and surface acidity, as compared to Al-MCM-41. R 3 SnM was used in the synthesis of isoamyl acetate. The yield of isoamyl acetate was 96% when n(isoamyl alcohol)︰n(acetic acid) 1.0︰1.0, 3 R SnM w 5%, 138 °C for 5 h. The catalyst can be reused and the yield of 86% can be attained when catalyst was reused five times at the same catalytic conditions.展开更多
