2-methyl-2-propyl anion

Electrostatic potential map for pyramidal 2-methyl-2-propyl anion shows most negatively-charged regions (in red) and less negatively-charged regions (in blue). 

Repeat your analysis for 2-methyl-2-propyl radical and 2-methyl-2-propyl anion, and assign preferred equilibrium geometry and the energy required to distort (by 10°) away from this geometry to each. 

Compare electrostatic potential maps for planar and pyramidal forms of 2-methyl-2-propyl anion. For which is the negative charge more delocalized Is this the lower-energy structure For this case, does charge delocalization lead to stabilization Explain. 

A study of the photo-sensitized ring-opening reactions of the radical cations (76) of arylcyclopropanes (75) with methanol, water, and cyanide nucleophiles suggests a three-electron 5k2 mechanism (Scheme 11).185 The isolated products are methyl propyl ethers, derived from nucleophilic attack of methanol on the radical cation (76). They were detected by UV-VIS spectroscopy and shown to react with nucleophiles by transient kinetic methods. The benzyl radical (77) reacts with the DCB radical anion to afford monoaromatic ether (78) by oxidation and protonation or the disubstituted ether (79) by addition of DCB. Regio- and stereo-selectivity of the substitution were complete regiochemistry and rate constant were profoundly effected by the electronic nature of the aryl substituents.186 Elsewhere, a combined ab initio and CIDNP study... 

Since rate constants for.PVL In acetonitrile or DMSO are the same or higher than those of ormethyl-or-propylproplolactone, the polymerization rate of PVL In THF should be Just as high as that of the methyl, propyl derivative. If this Is so, the above data suggest anionic polymerization of PVL proceeds as fast as anionic polymerization of Isoprene In hydrocarbons to cls-1,4-polyIsoprene. This Is Indeed quite Impressive.

The search for opioid analgesics which show reduced addiction liability ha.s centered largely on benzomorphan and morphinan derivatives. Some research has, however, been devoted to derivatives of the structurally simpler meperidine series. The preparation of one such compound, picenadol (59), starts with the reaction of N-methyl-4-piperidone with the lithium derivative from m-methoxybromobenzene. Dehydration of the first formed carbinol 51 gives the intermediate 52. Deprotonation by means of butyl lithium gives an anion which can be depicted in the ambident form 53. In the event, treatment of the anion with propyl bromide gives the product 54 from reaction of the benzylic anion. Treatment of that product, which now contains an eneamine function. 

The reaction is complicated in aprotic media by polymerization of the olefin at the electrode 132> apparently because anions such as 134 or 136 can initiate anionic polymerization of the activated olefin. Steric hindrance about the double bond can retard polymerization yields of hydrodimer from 132 in di-methylformamide as a function of the size of R are R = hydrogen or methyl, 0%, R % n-propyl, 25% R % i-propyl, 65% R % /-butyl, 95%, 32). Saturation of the double bond to produce, e.g., 136 from 132, is a side reaction in neutral... 

These changes in anion and cation were not merely a case of methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, and then futile. The change of anion dramatically affects the chemical behavior and stability of the ionic liquid the change of cation has a profound effect on the physical properties, such as melting point, viscosity, and density readily can be seen by examining the phase diagrams for the hexafluorophosphate and tetrafluoroborate salts (see Figures 5.5 and 5.6, respectively). 

The nitrosation of A-alkylureas in dioxane-acetic acid mixtures is governed by the expression v = fc[HN02][urea], at fixed pH, and dependent on rate-determining proton transfer from the protonated iV-alkyl-iV-nitrosourea to acetate anion the order of reactivity, which reflects relative impediment by the alkyl groups, is as for nitrosation in aqueous media (methyl- ethyl- propyl- butyl- > allyl-urea). 

The common abbreviations are used M = metal, L = ligand, R = organic group, Me = methyl, Et = ethyl, Pr = propyl, Bu = butyl, Ar = aromatic group. Ph = phenyl, Cp = cyclopentadienyl, Hal = halogen, X = anionic substituent. Short straight lines around metal atoms denote carbonyl hgands omitted for the sake of clarity. 

Pohl and Osterholtz studied the acetate anion catalyzed condensation of aqueous solutions of a series of alkyl substituted silanetriols [26]. The modified Taft equation for a limited number of alkyl groups (methyl, ethyl, M-propyl, n-butyl, and /-butyl) indicated a large dependence on polar effects [26]. The modified Taft equation was log( kAc/ Ac ) = 6.7 o - 0.07 Es.
