Dimethyl transfer line

Prior to use, the cell and transfer line were silylated to deactivate the internal surfaces [170]. A 10% solution of dimethyl-dichlorosilane in toluene was used to rinse the cell, followed by successive rinses in toluene and methanol. The surfaces were then dried at room temperature in a stream of nitrogen. 

Fig. 39 Micrograph of polymerized uniform submicrostructure with 9 p.m line width and 50 xm line spacing. The structure was written by two-photon initiated electron-transfer free radical polymerization of diacrylate monomer Sartomer SR 349 at 775 nm via direct excitation of dye 5,7-diiodo-3-butoxy-6-fluorone(H-Nu 470) for (A) and dye 3 for (B) in the presence of Ar,Ar-dimethyl-2,6-diisopropylaniline...

All optical rotations were measured at the D-line of sodium with a Perkin-Elmer polarimeter (model 141) using a thermostatted 10-cm polarimeter tube dried by a stream of filtered, dried air. Precaution was necessary to exclude water from the solutions in 1,2-dichloroethane and dimethyl sulfoxide. In this connection all glassware was dried at 120 °C and stoppered while hot. All transfers of solvents or solutions were made with syringes using serum caps to exclude moist atmosphere. The compounds which could not be prepared in crystalline condition and recrystallized to purity were obtained from a pure crystalline derivative...

The directions of proton (deuterium) transfer processes (reaction 15) from the dimethyl-substituted silicenium ion 6 to bases B of known proton affinities were used to determine the heats of formation of neutral 1-methylsilaethene 7 versus neutral dimethyl-silylene 840. For 7 a value of 18 kcalmol-1 was obtained, and 8 was determined to be 28 kcal less stable. This difference contradicts the experimental findings of other groups41, who obtained an opposite ordering of stabilities, and is also not in line with theoretical results42 the latter predict the two isomers to be of comparable stability. 

During the transfer of the Pyrosuphate salt of Dimethyl Sulphate and Sulphur Trioxide from the pryo reactor to the next stage reactor, a PTFE lined braided stainless steel tranter hose developed a leak. Approximately, 400 Kg (900pounds) of pyrosulphate was released to the plant sump. The material reacts with water and a cloud of Sulphuric acid mist was generated. 

Arakawa and coworkers [45] developed the on-line photoreaction cell depicted in Figure 5.3 and performed a series of studies on the detection of reaction intermediates in photosubstitution and photooxidation of Ru(II) complexes. The photosubstitution of Ru(bpy)2B [bpy = 2,2 -bipyridine B = 3,3 -dimethyl-2,2 -bipyridine (dmbpy) or 2-(aminomethyl)pyridine (ampy)] was studied in acetonitrile and pyridine. Irradiation of Ru(bpy)2B and related complexes yields a charge-transfer excited species with an oxidized Ru center and an electron localization on the bpy moiety. The excited-state complex underwent ligand substitution via a stepwise mechanism that includes ant] bidentate ligand (Scheme 5.6). Photoproducts such as Ru(bpy)2S2 (S = solvent molecule) and intermediates with a monodentate (mono-hapfo-coordination) B ligand, Ru(bpy)2BS, and Ru(bpy)2BSX+ (X=C10/, PF ) were detected. Other studies also identified photo-oxidized products of several mixed-valence Ru(II) complexes upon irradiation (7i> 420 nm) [31b, 46].
