Control of Regiochemistry in Photodimerization through Micellar Preorientational Effect: 2-Substituted Naphthalenes

Photodimerization of 2-substituted naphthalenes in organic solvents has been well explored. In contrast to their behavior in organic solvents, in anionic and cationic micellar media enhanced reactivity and pronounced regioselectivity are observed. Reactivity enhancement in micellar media is attributed to the local concentration effect. Enhanced reactivity in CTAC and DTAC compared to CTAB micelles is attributed to the counterion effect, and the regioselective photodimerization observed in anionic and cationic micelles leading exclusively to the cis dimer or the products derived therefrom is rationalized on the basis of the preorientational effect of micelles.

Thermodynamic properties of the system toluene-1,2-dichloroethane

Data on heats of mixing at 30 'C, vapor-liquid equilibrium, latent heats of vaporization at 686 mmHg, and vapor pressures for the system toluene-l,2-dichloroethane are presented.

Temperature dependence of chlorine NQR in 2-chloro 5-nitrobenzoic acid and 4-chloro 3-nitrobenzoic acid

Temperature dependence of chlorine nuclear quadrupole resonance in 2-chloro 5-nitrobenzoic acid and 4-chloro 3-nitrobenzoic acid has been investigated in the region 77° K to room temperature. No phase transition has been observed. The results are analysed to obtain the torsional frequencies and their temperature dependence. A nonlinear temperature dependence is obtained for the torsional frequencies.

Infrared and Raman spectra of 2,4-dithiobiuret and its normal vibrations

The infrared spectra of 2,4-dithiobiuret(DTB), N-deuterated dithiobiuret(DTB-d5) and the laser Raman spectrum of DTB are reported. Normal coordinate treatments of DTB and DTB-d5 have been carried out to aid the assignment of the vibrational frequencies. A trans—cis conformation is favoured for DTB molecule in the solid state.

Thermodynamic properties of toluene-1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane

Data on heats of mixing at 298.15 and 308.15 K, vaporliquid equilibria, latent heats of vaporization at 686 mmHg, and vapor pressures for the system toluene-1,1,2,2- tetrachloroethane are presented. The effect of alkyl substitution on heats of mixing is discussed.
