IUPAC groups

The results reported for ethyne adsorbed on finely divided metals are rather fragmentary. We therefore review the results metal by metal and attempt an overview at the end. We start with the group VIIIC (IUPAC group 10) metals Ni, Pd, and Pt, which show wide catalytic activity. The available wavenumber ranges are limited to down to 1300 cm 1 on SiOz supports or to 1100 cm 1 on A1203. 

Of the group VIII metals (IUPAC Groups 8-10), only Pd exhibits a strong preference for 7t-bonding (type II spectra) over di-cr, and in all three (111),... 

It is common practice to assess the strength of interaction of n species with the metal concerned by evaluating the reductions in wavenumber of the coupled vC=C/<5CH2 modes from their values of 1623 and 1342 cm 1 for an unperturbed ethene molecule. By this criterion, adsorption on the group lb (IUPAC group 11) metals causes the least perturbations of the adsorbate... 

A chemical name typically has four parts in the IUPAC system of nomenclature prefix, locant, parent, and suffix. The prefix specifies the location and identity of various substituent groups in the molecule, the locant gives the location of the primary functional group, the parent selects a main part of the molecule and tells how many carbon atoms are in that part, and the suffix identifies the primary functional group. 

As we cover new functional groups in later chapters, the applicable IUPAC rules of nomenclature will be given. In addition, Appendix A at the back of this book gives an overall view of organic nomenclature and shows how compounds that contain more than one functional group are named. For the present, let s see how to name branched-chain alkanes and learn some general naming rules that are applicable to all compounds. 

The common names of these simple alkyl groups are so well entrenched in the chemical literature that IUPAC rules make allowance for them. Thus, the following compound is properly named either 4-(l-methvlethyl)heptane or 4-iso-propylheptane. There is no choice but to memorize these common names fortunately, there are only a few of them. 

Alkanes are a class of saturated hydrocarbons with the general formula C H2n. -2- They contain no functional groups, are relatively inert, and can be either straight-chain (normal) or branched. Alkanes are named by a series of IUPAC rules of nomenclature. Compounds that have the same chemical formula but different structures are called isomers. More specifically, compounds such as butane and isobutane, which differ in their connections between atoms, are called constitutional isomers. 

Ketones are named by replacing the terminal -e of the corresponding alkane name with -one. The parent chain is the longest one that contains the ketone group, and the numbering begins at the end nearer the carbonyl carbon. As with alkenes (Section 6.3) and alcohols (Section 17.1), the locant is placed before the parent name in older rules but before the suffix in newer IUPAC recommendations. For example ... 

Amines are organic derivatives of ammonia. They are named in the IUPAC system either by adding the suffix -amine to the name of the alkyl substituent or by considering the amino group as a substituent on a more complex parent molecule. 

As noted in the text, chemists overwhelmingly use the nomenclature system devised and maintained by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, or IUPAC. Rules for naming monofunctional compounds were given throughout the text as each new functional group was introduced, and a list of where these rules can be found is given in Table A.l. 

The vertical columns are known as groups. Historically, many different systems have been used to designate the different groups. Both Arabic and Roman numerals have been used in combination with the letters A and B. The system used in this text is the one recommended by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) in 1985. The groups are numbered from 1 to 18, starting at the left. 

As usual, R is a hydrocarbon group or, in the simplest case, a hydrogen atom. The acidic hydrogen atom is the one bonded to oxygen. The IUPAC name of a carboxylic add can be obtained by substituting the suffix -oic acid for the final e in the name of the corresponding alkane. In practice, such names are seldom used. For example, the first two members of the series are commonly referred to as formic add and acetic add. 

In aromatic diazonium compounds containing an ionized hydroxyl group ( —O-) in the 2- or 4-position, it is necessary to consider delocalization of electrons and, therefore, two mesomeric structures (1.7a-1.7b) (see Sec. 4.2). This fact has implications for nomenclature compounds of this type are considered as quinone derivatives following IUPAC Rule C-815.3 (Exception) compounds of this class are called quinone diazides. As a specific compound 1.7a-1.7b is indexed in Chemical Abstracts as 4-diazo-2,5-cyclohexadien-l-one. If reference is made specifically to mesomeric structure 1.7b, however, it is called 4-diazoniophenolate. 

In the Chemical Abstracts method (also accepted by IUPAC Rule C-912), the naming of monoazo compounds with radicals R derived from two identical parent hydrocarbon hydrides is the same as mentioned above (for an exception see C-912.2). If the azo group links groups that are different when unsubstituted (R-N2-R ), a parent molecule RH is treated as substituted by R -N2- (Rule C-912.4) thus, 1.8 is called 4-(2-hydroxy-l-naphthylazo)benzenesulfonic acid or 4-(2-hydroxy-... 

In the present nomenclature to be called the diazonio group . In the IUPAC nomenclature for transformations this process is called diazonio-de-hydrogenation , or, in short, diazoniation . 

Ammonia and its inorganic and organic derivatives (HNR R2) couple readily with arenediazonium ions to give triazenes (Ar — N2—NR R2). Originally these compounds were called diazoamino compounds. Nowadays IUPAC nomenclature (IUPAC, 1979, Rule 942.2) recommends that the prefix diazoamino should be used only for compounds with the same organic residue at each end of the — N2 —NH — group. 

The diazoazido group is an unsaturated pentazano group. As it cannot be described by only one mesomeric formula, naming it according to the IUPAC nomenclature (1979, Rule 942.1) is difficult. Therefore we use diazoazide . 

Since diazoates can be considered to be derived from oximes by substitution of nitrogen for the methine group, Hantzsch (1894) put forward the hypothesis that configurational isomerism was also occurring here. He therefore represented the isomeric diazoates by the structures 7.1 and 7.2, assigning the syn structure (7.1) to the labile diazoate and the anti (7.2) to the stable isomer. Nowadays the description recommended by IUPAC (1979) for such configurational isomers, namely (Z) instead of syn and (E) instead of anti, should be used. 

Dediazoniation refers to all those reactions of diazo and diazonium compounds in which an N2 molecule is one of the products. The designation of the entering group precedes the term dediazoniation, e. g., azido-de-diazoniation for the substitution of the diazonio group by an azido group, or aryl-de-diazoniation for a Gomberg-Bachmann reaction. The IUPAC system says nothing about the mechanism of a reaction (see Sec. 1.2). For example, the first of the two dediazoniations mentioned is a heterolytic substitution, whereas the second is a homolytic substitution. 

Open-chain and cyclic compounds containing azo groups (-N2 —), such as azoalkanes, azoarenes, pyrazolines, triazolines, etc. may also eliminate N2, but these reactions are called azo-extrusions (IUPAC, 1989 a). The terms denitrogenation and nitrogen extrusion, both used by Adam et al. (1992, 1993) and by Adam and Sengelbach (1993) should not be used. They are superfluous and ambiguous. 

In this chapter the sections are arranged in accordance with the nomenclature of substitution transformations introduced by IUPAC (1989 c). In some sections homolytic and heterolytic dediazoniations are discussed together, provided that the diazo-nio group can be replaced by a specific group or class of groups homolytically as well as heterolytically. 

The replacement of an electrofugic atom or group at a nucleophilic carbon atom by a diazonium ion is called an azo coupling reaction. By far the most important type of such reactions is that with aromatic coupling components, which was discovered by Griess in 1861 (see Sec. 1.1). It is a typical electrophilic aromatic substitution, called an arylazo-de-hydrogenation in the systematic IUPAC nomenclature (IUPAC 1989c, see Sec. 1.2). 

Originally the triazenes were called diazoamino compounds, but in the present IUPAC nomenclature (1979) that term may be used only for a special group of triazenes (see Sec. 1.2). 

IUPAC (1988) Names of Hydrogen Atoms, Ions, and Groups, and for Reactions Involving Them. 

Highly sophisticated pulse sequences have been developed for the extraction of the desired information from ID and multidimensional NMR spectra [172]. The same techniques can be used for high-resolution 1-NMR, s-NMR and NQR. Pulse experiments are commonly used for the measurement of relaxation times [173], for the study of diffusion processes [174] and for the investigation of chemical reactions [175]. Davies et al. [176] have described naming and proposed reporting of common NMR pulse sequences (IUPAC task group). An overview of pulse sequence experiments has been given [177],... 

Note When attached to an atom other than carbon, alkyl- or arylsulfonyl groups are usually known as alkane- or arenesulfonyl groups (IUPAC Rule C 631)1076 are thus considerd as acyl-type derivatives rather than sulfones. 

Natural a-amino acids provide a moderately effective N,OJ chelating donor set derived from carboxylate and amino groups, respectively. Several side-chain donor atoms may also be involved in metal ion coordination, especially those of Cys (thiol sulfur) and His (imidazole nitrogen(s)). (Abbreviations for amino acid residues are those recommended by IUPAC-IUB.1702)... 

The element was generated by bombardment of californium with boron in a linear accelerator. The priority is debated. Isotopes of the elements were observed both by the group of Glenn T. Seaborg and by that of G. N. Flerov in Dubna. IUPAC proposed that the priority be shared. The longest-lived isotope has a half-life of 200 minutes. Lawrencium ends the series of actinides, as the 5f level is fully occupied with 14 electrons.
