Titanium model

Theoretical calculations at DFT level for ethylene insertion into Ti-Me bonds of cationic alkylamidinato complexes [TiMe(R1NGRNR1)2]+ (R = H, Ph R1 = H, SiMe3) have been performed,320 as have calculations for a bis(/5-diketonato)titanium model system (Scheme 137) in the presence of ethylene. Special attention is paid to the possible occurrence of agostic alkyl complexes and to the mechanism of ethylene uptake, chain propagation, and termination.321...

Several structures of the transition state have been proposed (I. D. Williams, 1984 K. A. Jorgensen, 1987 E.J. Corey, 1990 C S. Takano, 1991). They are compatible with most data, such as the observed stereoselectivity, NMR measuiements (M.O. Finn, 1983), and X-ray structures of titanium complexes with tartaric acid derivatives (I.D. Williams, 1984). The models, e. g., Jorgensen s and Corey s, are, however, not compatible with each other. One may predict that there is no single dominant Sharpless transition state (as has been found in the similar case of the Wittig reaction see p. 29f.). 

For resistance against fatigue, Nimonic 75 has been used with Nimonic 80 and Nimonic 90. Nimonic 75 is an 80-20 nickel-chromium alloy stiffened with a small amount of titanium carbide. Nimonic 75 has excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures, a reasonable creep strength, and good fatigue resistance. In addition, it is easy to press, draw, and mold. As firing temperatures have increased in the newer gas turbine models, HA-188, a Cr, Ni-based alloy, has recently been employed in the latter section of some combustion liners for improved creep rupture strength. 

The effect of the metals used was then examined (Table 5.4). When the group 4 metals, titanium, zirconium, and hafnium, were screened it was found that a chiral hafnium catalyst gave high yields and enantioselectivity in the model reaction of aldimine lb with 7a, while lower yields and enantiomeric excesses were obtained using a chiral titanium catalyst [17]. 

Several titanium(IV) complexes are efficient and reliable Lewis acid catalysts and they have been applied to numerous reactions, especially in combination with the so-called TADDOL (a, a,a, a -tetraaryl-l,3-dioxolane-4,5-dimethanol) (22) ligands [53-55]. In the first study on normal electron-demand 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions between nitrones and alkenes, which appeared in 1994, the catalytic reaction of a series of chiral TiCl2-TADDOLates on the reaction of nitrones 1 with al-kenoyloxazolidinones 19 was developed (Scheme 6.18) [56]. These substrates have turned out be the model system of choice for most studies on metal-catalyzed normal electron-demand 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of nitrones as it will appear from this chapter. When 10 mol% of the catalyst 23a was applied in the reaction depicted in Scheme 6.18 the reaction proceeded to give a yield of up to 94% ee after 20 h. The reaction led primarily to exo-21 and in the best case an endo/ exo ratio of 10 90 was obtained. The chiral information of the catalyst was transferred with a fair efficiency to the substrates as up to 60% ee of one of the isomers of exo3 was obtained [56]. 

A model for the catalytically active species in the Sharpless epoxidation reaction is formulated as a dimer 3, where two titanium centers are linked by two chiral tartrate bridges. At each titanium center two isopropoxide groups of the original tetraisopropoxytitanium-(IV) have been replaced by the chiral tartrate ligand ... 

The aforementioned inconsistencies between the paralinear model and actual observations point to the possibility that there is a different mechanism altogether. The common feature of these metals, and their distinction from cerium, is their facility for dissolving oxygen. The relationship between this process and an oxidation rate which changes from parabolic to a linear value was first established by Wallwork and Jenkins from work on the oxidation of titanium. These authors were able to determine the oxygen distribution in the metal phase by microhardness traverses across metallographic sections comparison of the results with the oxidation kinetics showed that the rate became linear when the metal surface reached oxygen... 

On the other hand, addition of methylmagnesium bromide, as well as (triisopropoxy)methyl-titanium, to the O-benzyl-protected analog 4 proceeds with the facial stereoselection predicted by Cram s open-chain model, although the selectivities are very low72. 

Once again, desilylation and oxidative cleavage33 delivers the hydroxycarboxylic acids. A chairlike transition state model, analogous to that proposed for the corresponding boron enolate33, is postulated in order to rationalize the ul topicity of the above titanium enolate. 

Chelation control, as indicated in 5, is also a suitable model for rationalizing the stereochemical outcome of titanium tetrachloride mediated additions of 3,3-dimelhyl-2-trimethylsilyl-oxy-l-butenc (6) or l-methoxy-2-methyl-l-trimethylsilyloxy-l-propene (7) to 3-benzyloxy-2-methylpropanal (4). In both cases, there is almost exclusive formation of the chelate-controlled product (95 5 and >97 3, respectively)13. 

This process uses a moving laser beam, directed by a computer, to prepare the model. The model is made up of layers having thicknesses about 0.005-0.020 in. (0.012-0.50 mm) that are polymerized into a solid product. Advanced techniques also provides fast manufacturing of precision molds (152). An example is the MIT three-dimensional printing (3DP) in which a 3-D metal mold (die, etc.) is created layer by layer using powdered metal (300- or 400-series stainless steel, tool steel, bronze, nickel alloys, titanium, etc.). Each layer is inkjet-printed with a plastic binder. The print head generates and deposits micron-sized droplets of a proprietary water-based plastic that binds the powder together. 

Fradet227,232, in an esterification study on models, examined the reaction of octadecanoic acid with tetrabutoxytitanium. He found that a small amount of butyl octadecanoate is formed (absorption of the ester carbonyl at 1740 an-1) and that the carboxy absorption at 1710 cm-1 disappears completely. Simultaneously, two bands appear at 1560 and 1450 an-1, which is in agreement with Yoshino302. The ratio of the intensity of each of these two peaks to the intensity of ester peak (1740 cm-1) does not change when the concentration of the solution used in the spectroscopic study is varied consequently, the interaction between carbonyl and titanium is most probably intramolecular ... 

Deposition of TiN by the thermal decomposition of tetrakis(dimethylamido)titanium (TDMAT) in a nitrogen atmosphere (as opposed to ammonia) was characterized by a simple Arrhenius rate expression. Adequate deposition rates and good step coverage were achieved for 3/1 aspect ratio holes, 0.40 micron in size. A reactor model was designed,... 

As an example of the use of MIXCO.TRIAD, an analysis of comonomer triad distribution of several ethylene-propylene copolymer samples will be delineated. The theoretical triad Intensities corresponding to the 2-state B/B and 3-state B/B/B mixture models are given In Table VI. Abls, et al (19) had earlier published the HMR triad data on ethylene-propylene samples made through continuous polymerization with heterogeneous titanium catalysts. The data can be readily fitted to the two-state B/B model. The results for samples 2 and 5 are shown In Table VII. The mean deviation (R) between the observed and the calculated Intensities Is less than 1% absolute, and certainly less than the experimental error In the HMR Intensity determination. 

We have developed a compact photocatalytic reactor [1], which enables efficient decomposition of organic carbons in a gas or a liquid phase, incorporating a flexible and light-dispersive wire-net coated with titanium dioxide. Ethylene was selected as a model compound which would rot plants in sealed space when emitted. Effects of the titanium dioxide loading, the ethylene concentration, and the humidity were examined in batches. Kinetic analysis elucidated that the surface reaction of adsorbed ethylene could be regarded as a controlling step under the experimental conditions studied, assuming the competitive adsorption of ethylene and water molecules on the same active site. 

For a model particle, titanium dioxide (Ti02, Nippon Aerosil, P-25) having its primary size of 21nm was used, which was normally impossible to be uniformly fluidized.

The tltanla-based thin film catalyst models were constructed by first oxidizing the titanium surface In 5 x 10 torr of O2 for approximately 30 minutes at 775 K. This produced an AES llneshape consistent with fully oxidized TIO2. The metal was then vapor deposited onto the oxide support with the latter held at 130 K. The thickness of the metal overlayer and Its cleanliness were verified by AES. After various annealing and adsorption procedures, these thin films were further characterized using SSIMS, AES and TDS. For comparison, some work was done with Pt on Al20s. In this case a Mo foil covered with AI2O3 replaced the Tl(OOOl) substrate.
