Intermolecular and intramolecular

In the prostaglandin synthesis shown, silyl enol ether 216, after transmetaJ-lation with Pd(II), undergoes tandem intramolecular and intermolecular alkene insertions to yield 217[205], It should be noted that a different mechanism (palladation of the alkene, rather than palladium enolate formation) has been proposed for this reaction, because the corresponding alkyl enol ethers, instead of the silyl ethers, undergo a similar cyclization[20I],... 

Cycloadditions resulting in ring-fused systems may be classified in two principal groups intramolecular and intermolecular cycloadditions. As the synthesis of the requisite precursor for an intramolecular cycloaddition is often more involved, more emphasis has been placed on those of an intermolecular nature. 

The normal modes for solid Ceo can be clearly subdivided into two main categories intramolecular and intermolecular modes, because of the weak coupling between molecules. The former vibrations are often simply called molecular modes, since their frequencies and eigenvectors closely resemble those of an isolated molecule. The latter are also called lattice modes or phonons, and can be further subdivided into librational, acoustic and optic modes. The frequencies for the intermolecular modes are low, reflecting, the... 

Intramolecular and intermolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of aziridine-2-car-boxylic esters with alkenes and alkynes have been investigated [131, 132]. Upon heating, aziridine-2-carboxylates undergo C-2-C-3 bond cleavage to form azome-... 

A complex sequence of pericyclic reactions, intramolecular and intermolecular cycloadditions and cycloreversions, was studied in an attempt to readily achieve bicyclic five-membered heterocycles, the methyl 4,6-dihydrothieno- and methyl-... 

The two main reasons for studying the reversible reaction (3) were (a) to complete the picture of the Koch reaction in terms of quantitative information and (b) to set up a scale of reactivity towards a neutral nucleophile for carbonium ions of different structure. The first item is important from a practical point of view because there are reactions competing with the carbonylation step (3), which can be divided into intramolecular and intermolecular processes. Rearrangement of the intermediate alkylcarbonium ion, e.g. 

Aryl halides can be dehalogenated by Friedel-Crafts catalysts. Iodine is the most easily cleaved. Dechlorination is seldom performed and defluorination apparently never. The reaction is most successful when a reducing agent, say, Br or 1 is present to combine with the I" or Br coming off." Except for deiodination, the reaction is seldom used for preparative purposes. Migration of halogen is also found," both intramolecular and intermolecular." The mechanism is probably the reverse of that of 11-11." ... 

Compounds in which a carbonyl or other nucleophilic functional group is close to a carbenoid carbon can react to give ylide intermediate.221 One example is the formation of carbonyl ylides that go on to react by 1,3-dipolar addition. Both intramolecular and intermolecular cycloadditions have been observed. 

In order to understand polymer solution behaviour, the samples have to be characterised with respect to their molecular configuration, their molar mass and polydispersity, the polymer concentration and the shear rate. Classical techniques of polymer characterisation (light scattering, viscometry, ultracentrifugation, etc.) yield information on the solution structure and conformation of single macromolecules, as well as on the thermodynamic interactions with the solvent. In technical concentrations the behaviour of the dissolved polymer is more complicated because additional intramolecular and intermolecular interactions between polymer segments appear. 

Sugihara et al. in 1997.106 They utilized aqueous ammonium hydroxide as a reaction medium, which provided ammonia as a hard ligand to labilize the CO ligands and therefore enhance the rate of the PKR. The reaction of dicobalthexacarbonyl complexes of enynes and alkynes provided expected cyclopentenones via intramolecular and intermolecular modes respectively (Scheme 4.10). 

Dithiolene complexes with the maleonitriledithiolate (mnt) ligand form highly delocalized systems and are widespread in studies of conducting and magnetic materials. The electronic properties have been extensively studied with various computational methods including Hiickel and extended Hiickel approaches to identify the nature of the orbitals involved in intramolecular and intermolecular interactions. These structural properties allow the complexes to interact in the solid state via short stacking S, S and short interstack S---S contacts.10 4-1048...

The intramolecular and intermolecular deuterium isotope effects in the cycloaddition of acrylonitrile to allene (equation 98) have been studied by Dolbier and Dai231,232. The intramolecular KIEs in the allene-acrylonitrile system were found to be 1.21 0.02 at 206°C and 1.14 0.02 at 225°C. A negligible intermolecular SKIE was found in the reaction of the mixture of tetradeuteriated and undeuteriated allene using a limited amount of acrylonitrile (ku/ku) = 1.04 0.05 at 190-210 °C for D0/D4 allene. An equilibrium deuterium IE of 0.92 0.01 was found at 280-287 5°C (15-45 h reaction time). 

Song and Beak161 have used intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen-deuterium kinetic isotope effects to investigate the mechanism of the tin tetrachloride catalysed ene-carbonyl enophile addition reaction between diethyloxomalonate and methylenecy-clohexane (equation 105). These ene reactions with carbonyl enophiles can occur by a concerted (equation 106) or a stepwise mechanism (equation 107), where the formation of the intermediate is either fast and reversible and the second step is slow k- > k-i), or where the formation of the intermediate (the k step) is rate-determining.
