Effects of Substitution. The quantum yields and the position of the photostationary state of halogenated stilbenes (Table 5b) and various other substituted stilbenes (Table 5c) at room temperature are quite similar to those of the parent compound. A previously reported strong influence of the position of bromo substituents on 0, c and C, [116] has been carefully reexamined by Saltiel and his group [26, 104, 105], A small increase of fl>i c and is generated by 4-bromo substitution the introduction of a bromine atom in the 3-position has practically no influence on the quantum yields.

The binder system of a plastic encapsulant consists of an epoxy resin, a hardener or curing agent, and an accelerating catalyst system. The conversion of epoxies from the Hquid (thermoplastic) state to tough, hard, thermoset soHds is accompHshed by the addition of chemically active compounds known as curing agents. Flame retardants (qv), usually in the form of halogens, are added to the epoxy resin backbone because epoxy resins are inherently flammable. 

Halobutyl Cures. Halogenated butyls cure faster in sulfur-accelerator systems than butyl bromobutyl is generally faster than chlorobutyl. Zinc oxide-based cure systems result in C—C bonds formed by alkylation through dehydrohalogenation of the halobutyl to form a zinc chloride catalyst (94,95). Cure rate is increased by stearic acid, but there is a competitive reaction of substitution at the halogen site. Because of this, stearic acid can reduce the overall state of cure (number of cross-links). Water is a strong retarder because it forms complexes with the reactive intermediates. Amine cure may be represented as follows ... 

No simple electrophilic substitution, for example nitrosation, nitration, sulfonation or halogenation of a C—H bond, has so far been recorded in the pteridine series. The strong 7T-electron deficiency of this nitrogen heterocycle opposes such electrophilic attack, which would require a high-energy transition state of low stability. 

The rate equation is first-order in acetone, first-order in hydroxide, but it is independent of (i.e., zero order in) the halogen X2. Moreover, the rate is the same whether X2 is chlorine, bromine, or iodine. These results can only mean that the transition state of the rds contains the elements of acetone and hydroxide, but not of the halogen, which must enter the product in a fast reaction following the rds. Scheme VI satisfies these kinetic requirements. 

More detailed consideration of these various equilibria and other redox reactions of the halogen oxoacids will be found under the separate headings below. As expected, the rates of redox reactions of the halogen oxyanions will depend, sometimes crucially, on the precise conditions used. However, as a very broad generalization, they tend to become progressively faster as the oxidation state of the halogen decreases, i.e. ... 

The strengths of the monobasic acids increase rapidly with increase in oxidation state of the halogen in accordance with Pauling s rules (p. 50). For example, approximate values of pKa are HOCl 7.52, HOCIO 1.94, HOCIO2 - 3, HOCIO3 — 10. The pXa values of related acids increase in the sequence Cl < Br < I.
