Irradiation of 59a,c in benzene gave the corresponding 3-phenylindoles 62 (R = Ph) (66LA17). In the case of the 3-diazo-derivative 59a, a dark red dye having structure 61 was also isolated. Photolysis of 59a in anisole gave the para substitution products 62 (R = 4-OMe-Ph) whereas in ben-zonitrile or methyl benzoate, only dark red oily mixtures were obtained. 

Because of fortuitous overlap, the bands in the middle of the spectrum (bands 3 and 4) are more difficult to analyze. However, comparison of v3 bands of C02 in spectra of ABP A and ABP 8, as well as kinetic and spectroscopic evidence from other vibrational modes, show that both the single C02 in the presence of methyl benzoate and a differently structured C02 pair in the presence of toluene are found in this region. Band 3 consists of contributions from both types of sites (methyl benzoate and toluene), while band 4 is the lower frequency member of the C02 pair in the presence of toluene. The band from C02 in the presence of methyl benzoate is labeled M. The bands from the C02 pair in this toluene site are named T2 and T3, because in the spectrum of unlabeled ABP, they are the second and third bands from toluene sites. 

NO2) and 16a (3-CN) the dll ratio is much smaller, only 1.2, and in this case a complete interdigitation of the RF-chains, as shown in Fig. 1 la, is assumed [113]. Similar dll ratios of around 1.2-1.3 were also reported for 4-substituted methyl benzoates like compound 21 (Fig. 10) [119]. Detailed XRD studies of this compound confirmed a phase structure with layers of completely overlapping RF-chains [114] and separate layers of the aromatics (see Fig. 11a).

MgTPP has also been examined as a substrate for constructing porphyrin sponges, i.e., lattice clathrates that can reversibly absorb and release guest molecules. Such guests as methyl benzoate, propanol and (R)-phenethylamine) have been structurally authenticated other examples are known. " ... 

Write a balanced chemical equation using condensed structural formulas for (a) the formation of butyl propionate from the appropriate acid and alcohol, (b) the saponification (base hydrolysis) of methyl benzoate. 

It was relatively straightforward to prepare compounds whose structural and electronic characteristics could readily be varied. For example, substituted benzoic acids and substituted methyl benzoates are readily prepared. As a result it was relatively straightforward to study substituent effects on rates and equilibria by varying the nature of X (equations (1.1) and (1.2)). 

A student performed a reaction in which bromobenzene was converted to the corresponding Grignard reagent, which was then reacted with methyl benzoate (Eq. 8.20). Mass spectra (Figs. 8.61-8.63) were obtained of three components of the reaction mixture, which were expected to be triphenylmethanol (25), benzophenone (26), and biphenyl (27). Confirm that these products were indeed formed by assigning the appropriate mass spectrum to each compound. For each spectrum, (a) specify the parent and base peaks (b) identify the compound represented by the mass spectrum and (c) predict the structure of the ion for each of the peaks for which a value of m/z is provided.
