Halogenated aromatic molecular structure

Molecular structure and thermochemistry are interrelated here for species chosen from contributions to the earlier Volume 3 of this book series. Discussion includes halogenated species gaseous nonmetal dioxides X-Y bond-containing species (X,Y = C, N, O) small carbon molecules arenols and substituted arenes steroids aromatic carbocycles difluoramines and nitro compounds selenium- and tellurium-nitrogen compounds. 

The toxic potency of halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons is dependent on the number and positions of halogen atoms in their molecular structure. Qualitative structure requirements for high toxicity Include planarity (or coplanarity) of structure in a shape approximating a rectangle and a sufficient degree of halogenation... 

Precipitation polymerization of AN is possible in aliphatic, aromatic, and halogenated aromatic solvents. Alcohols yield only PAN with low molecular masses due to their strong transfer abilities. The absence of water allows the same structural defects as bulk polymerization. Depending on monomer concentration, the kinetics of the system are similar to those in bulk or aqueous precipitation polymerization. Some systems for precipitation polymerization of AN in nonaqueous systems are given in Refs. [865-879]. 

A reaction in which an electrophile participates in het-erolytic substitution of another molecular entity that supplies both of the bonding electrons. In the case of aromatic electrophilic substitution (AES), one electrophile (typically a proton) is substituted by another electron-deficient species. AES reactions include halogenation (which is often catalyzed by the presence of a Lewis acid salt such as ferric chloride or aluminum chloride), nitration, and so-called Friedel-Crafts acylation and alkylation reactions. On the basis of the extensive literature on AES reactions, one can readily rationalize how this process leads to the synthesis of many substituted aromatic compounds. This is accomplished by considering how the transition states structurally resemble the carbonium ion intermediates in an AES reaction. 

We note from Table VIII a strong interest in halogenated resists, particularly those substituted with chlorine. The addition of chlorine to the aromatic structure of polystyrene has a marked effect on cross-linking efficiency. Monodisperse polystyrene, for example, has a sensitivity on the order of 50 p C/cm2, yet with as little as 20% chloromethyl groups substituted on the ring, the sensitivity is improved to 2 C/cm2 for comparable molecular weight and distribution.
