Alkyl-l,2,3,4,5-pentachlorocyclopentadienes are a novel class of compounds.2 The alkylation of hexachlorocyclopentadiene by trialkyl phosphites is a synthetic procedure of considerable scope (Table I) and represents a new method of forming carbon-to-carbon bonds. The products, 5-alkylpentachlorocyclopentadi-... 

During the past 15 years formaldehyde exposures and emission limits have been significantly lowered. Occuptional threshold limits are now 1.0 ppm or lower in most countries, and actual industrial exposures are almost always half of this value or less. Indoor air standards of 0.1 ppm are now contemplated in several nations, following established procedures for correlating occupational levels of toxic chemicals with ambient air levels. Furthermore, emission standards for UF-bonded wood products have been developed that allow the prediction of formaldehyde levels under various product use conditions before formaldehyde emitting products are installed. 

Electrochemical fluorination of (A,A-diaIkylamino)alcohols led to similar products. Thus, compared to the above example, A-hydroxyethylpyrrolidine gave a similar product distribution of a- and y-bond scission products and a 21.4% yield of the desired perfluoroacid fluoride 171 in addition to a small amount of perfluorinated A-ethylpyrrolidine. The ease of preparation of the starting materials is one advantage of this procedure for producing these nitrogen-containing perfluorinated compounds. 

Another example of ionic graft copolymerization in a reaction carried out on pendant olefinic groups using Ziegler-Natta catalysts in a coordinated anionic type polymerization [365]. The procedure consists of two steps. In the first one, diethylaluminum hydride is added across the double bonds. The product is subsequently treated with a transitiOTi metal halide. This yields an active catalyst for polymerizations of a-olefins. By this method, polyethylene and polypropylene can be grafted to butadiene styrene copolymers. Propylene monomer polymerization results in formations of isotactic polymeric branches ... 

One of the earliest methods for preparing aromatic boronic acids involved the reaction between diaryl mercury compounds and boron trichloride [198]. As organomer-curial compounds are to be avoided for safety and environmental reasons, this old method has remained unpopular. In this respect, trialkylaryl silanes and stannanes are more suitable and both can be transmetallated efficiently with a hard boron halide such as boron tribromide [199]. The apparent thermodynamic drive for this reaction is the higher stability of B-C and Si(Sn)-Br bonds of product compared to the respective B-Br and Si(Sn)-C bonds of substrates. Using this method, relatively simple arylboronic acids can be made following an aqueous acidic workup to hydrolyze the arylboron dibromide product [193]. For example, some boronic acids were synthesized more conveniently from the trimethylsilyl derivative than by a standard ortho-metallation procedure (entry 11, Table 1.3). 

Among chiral dialkylboranes, diisopinocampheylborane (8) is the most important and best-studied asymmetric hydroborating agent. It is obtained in both enantiomeric forms from naturally occurring a-pinene. Several procedures for its synthesis have been developed (151—153). The most convenient one, providing product of essentially 100% ee, involves the hydroboration of a-pinene with borane—dimethyl sulfide in tetrahydrofuran (154). Other chiral dialkylboranes derived from terpenes, eg, 2- and 3-carene (155), limonene (156), and longifolene (157,158), can also be prepared by controlled hydroboration. A more tedious approach to chiral dialkylboranes is based on the resolution of racemates. /n j -2,5-Dimethylborolane, which shows excellent enantioselectivity in the hydroboration of all principal classes of prochiral alkenes except 1,1-disubstituted terminal double bonds, has been... 

Nonwoven fabrics are generally described by the method of production, eg, needle-punched or spun-bonded (120). ASTM D1117 discusses various physical properties to be deterrnined for nonwoven fabrics and the standard procedures used. 

The synthetic procedure described is based on that reported earlier for the synthesis on a smaller scale of anthracene, benz[a]anthracene, chrysene, dibenz[a,c]anthracene, and phenanthrene in excellent yields from the corresponding quinones. Although reduction of quinones with HI and phosphorus was described in the older literature, relatively drastic conditions were employed and mixtures of polyhydrogenated derivatives were the principal products. The relatively milder experimental procedure employed herein appears generally applicable to the reduction of both ortho- and para-quinones directly to the fully aromatic polycyclic arenes. The method is apparently inapplicable to quinones having an olefinic bond, such as o-naphthoquinone, since an analogous reaction of the latter provides a product of undetermined structure (unpublished result). As shown previously, phenols and hydro-quinones, implicated as intermediates in the reduction of quinones by HI, can also be smoothly deoxygenated to fully aromatic polycyclic arenes under conditions similar to those described herein. 

Another major advantage of witness panels is that they make it possible to employ sophisticated analytical procedures to investigate the cause of serious bonding problems. Instrumentation such as HR-SEM, XPS, AES, FTIR, etc., which are discussed in detail in Chapter 6, are not customarily available in a production environment but there are many independent analytical laboratories that offer such services and whose personnel can be extremely helpful in diag-... 

Mercury(II) trifluoroacetate is a good electrophile that is highly reactive toward carbon-carbon double bonds [52, 53, 54] When reacting with olefins in nucleophilic solvents, it usually gives exclusively mercurated solvoadducts, but never products of skeletal rearrangement Solvomercuration-demercuratton of alkenes with mercury(II) trifluoroacetate is a remarkably effective procedure for the preparation of esters and alcohols with Markovnikov s regiochemistry [52, 5J] (equation 24)...
