Cyclopentadiene: The Impact of Storage Conditions on Thermal Stability
摘要:
The potential hazards from cyclopentadiene storage and use on kilogram scale are studied under adiabatic conditions. Cyclopentadiene, a reagent commonly used in organic synthesis, is known to spontaneously dimerize exothermically and thus should be stored cold and used quickly. In the present work we consider the impact of storage conditions such as the container size, volume, temperature, and solvent dilution to assess the potential hazards of a runaway reaction. The results of this analysis clearly show that the hazards are significantly increased as the mass of cyclopentadiene being stored is increased.

Unruly NO more: The synthesis of [RuCl2(NO)2(THF)] has been achieved by the reaction of [(cymene)RuCl2}2] with NO in THF. In the presence of a chelating L2‐type ligand [RuCl2(NO)2(THF)] binds alkenes to its nitrosyl nitrogen atoms (see scheme).
In a combined theoretical and experimental study, an efficient catalytic reaction featuring epoxide opening and tetrahydrofuran formation through homolytic substitution reactions at C-O and Ti-O bonds was devised. The performance of these two key steps of the catalytic cycle was studied and could be adjusted by modifying the electronic properties of the catalysts through introduction of electron-donating or -withdrawing substituents to the titanocene catalysts. By regarding both steps as single electron versions of oxidative addition and reductive elimination, a mechanism-based platform for the design of catalysts and reagents-for electron transfer reactions evolved that opens broad perspectives for further investigations.
