A few points should be noted before discussion of the mote complex derivatives. The addition of substituent groups is controlled by reaction conditions. Depending on the conditions, the reactive sites on a given monomer will be mono substituted, multiply substituted, or not substituted. Therefore, the production (reaction) parameters dictate the final properties of a polymer. Complex derivatives which create fiee hydroxyl ends, such as a hydro alkyl addition, can cause polymerization with new chains forming off the original substituent groups. These branches will...

In view of the feet that complete removal of water vapor cannot be readily achieved, we prepared water-free bulk and silica-supported zirconium sulfate. The bulk anhydrous Zr(S04)2 was obtained by reaction of zirconium tetrachloride with oleum [1]. The silica-supported zirconium sul te resulted from deposition-precipitation of zirconium hydroxide on silica, calcination at 723 K and subsequent reaction with gaseous sulfur trioxide. The catalytic activity of the sul ted zirconia s was measured in the gas-phase /rora-alkylation of benzene (1) with diethylbenzene (2) to ethylbenzene (3, reaction 1) [8,9] and the liquid-phase hydro-acyloxy-addition reaction of acetic acid (4) and camphene (5) to isobomyl acetate (6, reaction 2) [8,10]. With the /roras-alkylation we used an amorphous silica-aliunina catalyst as a reference. 

In Grignard reactions, Mg(0) metal reacts with organic halides of. sp carbons (alkyl halides) more easily than halides of sp carbons (aryl and alkenyl halides). On the other hand. Pd(0) complexes react more easily with halides of carbons. In other words, alkenyl and aryl halides undergo facile oxidative additions to Pd(0) to form complexes 1 which have a Pd—C tr-bond as an initial step. Then mainly two transformations of these intermediate complexes are possible insertion and transmetallation. Unsaturated compounds such as alkenes. conjugated dienes, alkynes, and CO insert into the Pd—C bond. The final step of the reactions is reductive elimination or elimination of /J-hydro-gen. At the same time, the Pd(0) catalytic species is regenerated to start a new catalytic cycle. The transmetallation takes place with organometallic compounds of Li, Mg, Zn, B, Al, Sn, Si, Hg, etc., and the reaction terminates by reductive elimination.

Aryl alcohol oxidase from the ligninolytic fungus Pleurotus eryngii had a strong preference for benzylic and allylic alcohols, showing activity on phenyl-substituted benzyl, cinnamyl, naphthyl and 2,4-hexadien-l-ol [103,104]. Another aryl alcohol oxidase, vanillyl alcohol oxidase (VAO) from the ascomycete Penicillium simplicissimum catalyzed the oxidation of vanillyl alcohol and the demethylation of 4-(methoxymethyl)phenol to vanillin and 4-hydro-xybenzaldehyde. In addition, VAO also catalyzed deamination of vanillyl amine to vanillin, and hydroxylation and dehydrogenation of 4-alkylphenols. For the oxidation of 4-alkylphenol, the ratio between the alcohol and alkene product depended on the length and bulkiness of the alkyl side-chain [105,106]. 4-Ethylphenol and 4-propylphenol, were mainly converted to (R)-l-(4 -hydroxyphenyl) alcohols, whereas medium-chain 4-alkylphenols such as 4-butylphenol were converted to l-(4 -hydroxyphenyl)alkenes.
