6-nitrate 6-benzyl ether

PMB ethers can be cleaved oxidatively with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ)11 in dichloromethane/water tor with cerium ammonium nitrate (CAN) in acetonitrile/water.12 Many other protecting groups such as esters, isopropylidene acetals, benzyl ethers, allyl ethers and f-butyldiphenyl silyl (TBDMS) ethers are stable to these conditions (Scheme 2.4). The cleavage reaction, with DDQ is initiated with a single-... 

Cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate in aqueous acetonitrile will also cleave a p-methoxyp/zeny/ ether (presumably to benzoquinone).335 The reaction was used in a synthesis of Stigmastellin A [Scheme 4.183] to release a primary alcohol in the presence of a benzyl ether.339 In an extension of the method, a bidirectional strategy for the synthesis of 2,3 5-trisubstitute d tetrahydrofuran components of annonaceous acetogenins benefited from the simultaneous protection of two primary hydroxyls as their Cj-symmetric hydroquinone ether [Scheme 4.184].340... 

A diastereoisomeric mixture of dicobalt hexacarbonyl complexes 33 reacted with trifluoroborane etherate at -20 °C to give the reduced product 3.3 (minus a benzyl ether) as a single diastereoisomer after decomplexation of the metal with cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate. Suggest a mechanism for the formation of 33 which accounts for the stereochemistry of the product. 

BORON FLUORIDE (7637-07-2) Reacts with moist air, water, steam, producing hydrogen fluoride, boric acid, and fluoboric acid. Violent reaction with allyl chloride, alkyl nitrate, benzyl nitrate, calcium oxide, ethyl ether, iodine, magnesium tetrahydroaluminate, active metals (except magnesium). Used as a polymerization catalyst contact with monomers may cause explosions. Corrodes most metals in the presence of moisture. 

Primary TBDMS ethers can be cleaved selectively in the presence of THP ethers and ketals using ceric ammonium nitrate in methanol. Both phenolic and aliphatic TBDMS ethers undergo cleavage when exposed to catalytic amounts of PdCl2(MeCN)2 in the latter case, and with longer exposure, this also results in oxidation to the corresponding aldehyde or ketone, if the alcohol was primary or secondary, respectively. This cleavage and oxidation can be performed selectively in the presence of TIPS, TBDPS and benzyl ethers (equation 15). 

Di benzyl Ether (C6H5CH2)20. A plasticizer for cellulose nitrate. 

Two of the most common methods for preparing highly dispersed iron oxide nanoparticles are thermal decomposition of iron organometallic compounds and co-precipitation of aqueous iron salts (chlorides, nitrates, etc) in basic media. On the one hand, one of the most representative syntheses within the first group is the one reported by Sun et al. to prepare nanoparticles of Fe, Co and Mn ferrites through the decomposition of the corresponding acetylacetonate precursors in benzyl ether in the presence of oleylamine and oleic acid. Since the final aim is to use the nanoparticles in... 

Ph.CH2.OMe, Ph.(CH2)2.0Me, Ph.(CH2)3.0Me (2-3, 3-4, 1-3), does not decrease steadily, but goes through a maximum. These two circumstances point to a specific -interaction in nitrations of the ethers with acetyl nitrate which is important with benzyl methyl ether, more important with methyl phenethyl ether, and not important with methyl phenpropyl ether. This interaction is the reaction with dinitrogen pentoxide already mentioned, and the variation in its importance is thought to be due to the different sizes of the rings formed in the transition states from the different ethers. 

The argtiments of Norman and his co-workers seem to give affirmative answers to the first and second of these questions, but it is doubtful if the available data further require such an answer for the third question. It can be argued that the crucial comparison made between the behaviour of benzyltrimethylammonium ion and protonated benzyl methyl ether is invalid, and that it is possible to interpret the results in terms of nitration by the nitronium ion, modified by protonation of the oxygen atom of the ether a case for the possible involvement of the nitro-nium ion in specific interaction leading to o-substitution has been made. ...
