Aromaticities relative

The K factor is a very useful indication of feed crackability. The K factor relates to the hydrogen content of the feed. It is normally calculated using feed distillation and gravity data, and measures aromaticity relative to paraffinicity. Higher K values indicate increased paraffinicity and more crackability. A K value above 12.0 indicates a paraffinic feed a K value below 11.0, aromatic. 

Such nucleophilic displacements are likely to be addition-elimination reactions, whether or not radical anions are also interposed as intermediates. The addition of methoxide ion to 2-nitrofuran in methanol or dimethyl sulfoxide affords a deep red salt of the anion 69 PMR shows the 5-proton has the greatest upfield shift, the 3- and 4-protons remaining vinylic in type.18 7 The similar additions in the thiophene series are less complete, presumably because oxygen is relatively electronegative and the furan aromaticity relatively low. Additional electronegative substituents increase the rate of addition and a second nitro group makes it necessary to use stopped flow techniques of rate measurement.141 In contrast, one acyl group (benzoyl or carboxy) does not stabilize an addition product and seldom promotes nucleophilic substitution by weaker nucleophiles such as ammonia.

As has been pointed out in the past (e.g. concerning the linear-cyclic equilibrium in Ceand Cio carbon clusters (40)), Hartree-Fock underestimates the resonance stabilization of aromatic relative to non-aromatic systems (in the case at hand, between the N- and / -protonated isomers) and MP2 overcorrects. The structures are found to be nearly isoenergetic at the CCSD level inclusion of connected triple excitations favors the N-protonated ion. The direction of the effect of connected quadruples is somewhat unclear, and a CCSD(TQ) or CCSDT(Q) calculation impossible on systems this size, but the contribution will anyhow be much smaller in absolute magnitude than that of connected triple excitations, particularly for systems like these which are dominated by a single reference determinant. We may therefore infer that at the full Cl limit, the N-protonated species will be slightly more stable than its / -protonated counterpart. 

The planar bond configuration of the nitrogen atom in pyrrole is usually explained in terms of aromaticity. The pyramidalization of the phosphorus and arsenic atoms in phosphole (130) and arsole (131) was taken to be the consequence of their much lower aromaticity relative to pyrrole [75JCS(P2)974] (see Table VIII). 

As a result of its reduced aromaticity, relative to pyrrole, furan undergoes [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions much more readily. It combines as a diene with electron-poor dienophiles to yield Diels-Alder-type adducts. Maleic [(Z)-butenedioic acid] anhydride, for example, reacts at room temperature, and the only isolated adduct is the exo isomer (the more thermodynamically favoured adduct) (Scheme 6.27a).

Extraction and extractive distillation can also be accomplished using N-Forylmorpholin (NFM) as the solvent. Krupp Uhde offers an extractive distillation process for license that employs NFM as the solvent. N-Forylmorpholin is employed in the extractor and in the distillation column to lower the vapor pressure of the aromatics relative to nonaromatics of a similar boiling point. In this way aromatics can be separated from nonaromatics in a very small and simple distillation column. N-Forylmorpholin has properties that make it an excellent solvent for this application. It is highly selective, thermally stable and has a boiling point in the range of the products to be separated. A flow diagram for this extractive distillation process is given in Fig. 3. 

Some interesting secondary solvent effects have been noted for adsorption of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and certain of their derivatives on alumina 14). The more nearly linear isomers (e.g., anthracene relative to phenanthrene, 2-bromonaphthalene relative to 1-bromonaph-thalene) are preferentially adsorbed from most solvents, owing to the apparent weak localization of these compounds on linear site complexes see Section 11-2B, There is also a tendency for the preferential adsorption of strong solvent molecules on these same linear site complexes, with the result that strong solvents (or their solutions in weaker solvents) behave as selectively stronger solvents toward the preferentially adsorbed linear aromatics, relative to less linear isomers. As a consequence the ratio of values for two such isomers varies sharply with the solvent used, despite the fact that Eq. (8-3) predicts that this ratio should remain constant for all solvents i.e., A. is generally constant for two or more isomers. Jn extreme cases the ratio of K" values for two isomers of this type can be varied by a factor of 10 or more, depending upon the solvent used (see Table 11-4). 

The tetrahydro-P-carbolines generally exhibit higher levels of biological activity than their fully aromatic relatives. Antiviral activity is especially evident in the tetrahydro-3-carbolines that have an oxathiazepine ring, speculated to have been derived from cysteine [125].
