The third example is the E2 elimination of hydrogen bromide (HBr) from f-butyl bromide (2-bromo-2-methylpropane [(CH3)3CBrj) by ethoxide in ethanol and is unremarkable save that it serves to emphasize that only elimination and no substitution occurs. Thus, f-butyl ethyl ether [(CH3)3COCH2CH3] cannot be prepared this way. Although not shown, bromoethane (CH3CH2Br) primarily undergoes...

In addition to MTBE, two other ethers commonly used as fuel additives ate /n/f-amyl methyl ether (TAME) and ethyl in/f-butyl ether [637-92-3] (ELBE). There ate a number of properties that ate important in gasoline blending (see Gasoline and OPHER MOTOR fuels) (Table 3).

A study of the regioselectivity of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of aliphatic nitrile oxides with cinnamic acid esters has been published. AMI MO studies on the gas-phase 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 1,2,4-triazepine and formonitrile oxide show that the mechanism leading to the most stable adduct is concerted. An ab initio study of the regiochemistry of 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of diazomethane and formonitrile oxide with ethene, propene, and methyl vinyl ether has been presented. The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of mesitonitrile oxide with 4,7-phenanthroline yields both mono-and bis-adducts. Alkynyl(phenyl)iodonium triflates undergo 2 - - 3-cycloaddition with ethyl diazoacetate, Ai-f-butyl-a-phenyl nitrone and f-butyl nitrile oxide to produce substituted pyrroles, dihydroisoxazoles, and isoxazoles respectively." 2/3-Vinyl-franwoctahydro-l,3-benzoxazine (43) undergoes 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with nitrile oxides with high diastereoselectivity (90% de) (Scheme IS)."

For the comparison of hydroperoxides with methyl ethers (equation 2), we find there is enthalpy of formation data only for dimethyl ether, isopropyl methyl ether and t-butyl methyl ether (again ignoring the ethyl and propyl hydroperoxides). The enthalpies of formal reaction 2 for R = Me, i-Pr and f-Bu (two gas phase enthalpies of formation for f-BuOOH) are —53.1, —54.9 and —37.6 or —48.6 kJmoU, respectively, in the gas phase. In the liquid phase, the enthalpies of reaction are —7.4, —35 (from the estimated enthalpy of formation of isopropyl hydroperoxide) and —20.0 kJmoU, respectively. Because the enthalpy of formation deviations from linearity for dimethyl ether and methyl hydroperoxide might not be identical, the reaction enthalpy might not be consistent with those...

In the Sepracor synthesis of chiral cetirizine di hydrochloride (4), the linear side-chain as bromide 51 was assembled via rhodium octanoate-mediated ether formation from 2-bromoethanol and ethyl diazoacetate (Scheme 8). Condensation of 4-chlorobenzaldehyde with chiral auxiliary (/f)-f-butyl sulfinamide (52) in the presence of Lewis acid, tetraethoxytitanium led to (/f)-sulfinimine 53. Addition of phenyl magnesium bromide to 53 gave nse to a 91 9 mixture of two diastereomers where the major diasteromer 54 was isolated in greater than 65% yield. Mild hydrolysis conditions were applied to remove the chiral auxiliary by exposing 54 to 2 N HCl in methanol to provide (S)-amine 55. Bisalkylation of (S)-amine 55 with dichlonde 56 was followed by subsequent hydrolysis to remove the tosyl amine protecting group to afford (S)-43. Alkylation of (5)-piperizine 43 with bromide 51 produced (S)-cetirizine ethyl ester, which was then hydrolyzed to deliver (S)-cetirizine dihydrochloride, (5)-4. 

Peroxides. These are formed by aerial oxidation or by autoxidation of a wide range of organic compounds, including ethyl ether, allyl ethyl ether, allyl phenyl ether, benzyl ether, benzyl butyl ether, n-butyl ether, /50-butyl ether, f-butyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, olefines, and aromatic and saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons. They accumulate during distillation and can detonate violently on evaporation or distillation when their concentration becomes high. If peroxides are likely to be present materials should be tested for peroxides before distillation (for tests see entry under "Ethers", in Chapter 2). Also, distillation should be discontinued when at least one quarter of the residue is left in the distilling flask.

Section II, 1. Theoretical aspects of asymmetric polymerization have been discussed by Fueno and Furdkawa [T. Fueno, J. Furukawa J. Polymer Sci., Part A, 2, 3681 (1964)]. 1-phenyl-l,3-butadiene has been polymerized using (R)-2-methyl-butyl-lithium or butyl-lithium complexed with menthyl-ethyl-ether, yielding optically active polymers with [a] f, referred to one monomeric unit, between +0.71 and —1.79. Optical rotation dispersion between 589 m u and 365 mft is normal and the Drude equation constant is comprised between 255 raft and 280 raft [A. D. Aliev, B. A. Krenisel, T. N. Fedoiova Vysokomol. Soed. 7, 1442 (1965)]. 

The rate constants for the reactions between OH and a range of ethers and hydroxy ethers have been reported at 298 K233 as well as those for reactions between dimethyl ether and methyl f-butyl ether over the range 295-750 K.234 Data from the former study show deviations from simple structure-activity relationships which were postulated to arise due to H-bonding in the reaction transition states.233 The atmospheric lifetime of methyl ethyl ether has been determined to be approximately 2 days.235 Theoretical studies on the H-abstraction from propan-2-ol (a model for deoxyribose) by OH have been reported using ab initio methods (MP2/6-31G ).236 The temperature dependence (233-272 K) of the rate coefficients for the reaction of OH with methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, and f-butyl formate has been measured and structure-activity...

Tetrakis(f-butyl isocyanide)di- -chlorodipalladium(I) is a diamagnetic, bright-yellow powder when pure it becomes orange above 155° and blackens above 210°. It is stable in air for months at room temperature. Its solutions in common organic solvents are also stable to air if the temperature is not elevated. It is soluble in methylene chloride, chloroform, benzene, toluene, ethyl acetate, etc., and is insoluble in diethyl ether and petroleum...
