Transformation, IUPAC

In the present nomenclature to be called the diazonio group . In the IUPAC nomenclature for transformations this process is called diazonio-de-hydrogenation , or, in short, diazoniation . 

The term dediazoniation was introduced by Bunnett as early as 1954. It is now included in the IUPAC system of naming transformations in organic chemistry (IUPAC, 1989 a). 

In this chapter the sections are arranged in accordance with the nomenclature of substitution transformations introduced by IUPAC (1989 c). In some sections homolytic and heterolytic dediazoniations are discussed together, provided that the diazo-nio group can be replaced by a specific group or class of groups homolytically as well as heterolytically.

In the reaction sections of this book, we shall give IUPAC names for most transformations (these names will be printed in the same typeface used above), including examples of all eight types.3 As will become apparent, some transformations require more rules than we have given here.2 However, it is hoped that the simplicity of the system will also be apparent. 

Two further notes (1) Many transformations can be named using either of two reactants as the substrate. For example, the transformation methylene-de-oxo-bisubstitution above, can also be named ethylidene-de-triphenylphosphoranediyl-bisubstitution. In this book, unless otherwise noted, we will show only those names in which the substrate is considered to undergo the reactions indicated by the titles of the chapters. Thus the name we give to 1-12 (ArH + RCI- ArFt) is alkyl-de-hydrogenation, not aryl-de-chlorination, though the latter name is also perfectly acceptable under the IUPAC system. (2) The IUPAC rules recognize that some transformations are too complex to be easily fitted into the system, so they also include a list of names for some complex transformations, which are IUPAC approved, but nonsystematic (for some examples, see reactions 2-44, 8-36, 9-63). 

In the third edition I included the new IUPAC names for organic transformations. Since then the rules have been broadened to cover additional cases hence more such names are given in this edition. Furthermore, IUPAC has now published a new system for designating reaction mechanisms (see p. 290), and I now include some of the simpler of these new designations. 

The Division of Chemistry and the Environment of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) has recently approved the creation of an IUPAC-sponsored book series entitled Biophysico-Chemical Processes in Environmental Systems to be published by John Wiley Sons, Hoboken, NJ. This series addresses the fundamentals of physical-chemical-biological interfacial interactions in the environment and the impacts on (1) the transformation, transport and fate of nutrients and pollutants, (2) food chain contamination and food quality and safety, and (3) ecosystem health, including human health. In contrast to classical books that focus largely on separate physical, chemical, and biological processes, this book series is unique in integrating the frontiers of knowledge on both fundamentals and impacts on interfacial interactions of these processes in the global environment. 

PBDEs have been called one of the emerging pollutants . They are extensively used as flame retardants (FRs) in various polymers and especially in electronic equipment such as computers and television sets. Similar to PCBs, there are 209 congeners of PBDEs, and the nomenclature system is also based on the same IUPAC scheme used for PCBs. But unlike PCBs, for which large-scale production has been banned for many years, PBDEs are still widely used and their transport and transformation in the environment are still poorly understood. The global demand for PBDEs has increased rapidly since the 1970s. In 1992, the global production of PBDEs was 40,0001, but in 1999 this had increased to approximately 70,0001 (Renner, 2000). 

The relationships between the thermodynamic properties of chemical reactions and the transformed thermodynamic properties of biochemical reactions have been treated in several reviews (Alberty, 1993a, 1994c, 1997b, 2001 e). Recommendations for Nomenclature and Tables in Biochemical Thermodynamics from an IUPAC-IUBMB Committee were published in 1994 and republished in 1996. This report is available on the Web http llwww.chem.qmw.ac.uhlimbmbl thermodl. 

As it is well known, the contacts between drops (in emulsions), solid particles (in suspensions) and gas bubbles (in foams) are accomplished by films of different thickness. These films, as already discussed, can thin, reaching very small thickness. Observed under a microscope these films reflect very little light and appear black when their thickness is below 20 nm. Therefore, they can be called nano foam films. IUPAC nomenclature (1994) distinguishes two equilibrium states of black films common black films (CBF) and Newton black films (NBF). It will be shown that there is a pronounced transition between them, i.e. CBFs can transform into NBFs (or the reverse). The latter are bilayer formations without a free aqueous core between the two layers of surfactant molecules. Thus, the contact between droplets, particles and bubbles in disperse systems can be achieved by bilayers from amphiphile molecules. 

An amorphous micioporous silica (previously studied in the scope of an SCI-IUPAC project (ref. 10)) is examined (fractal dimension ca 2.5 (ref. 11)). It is outgassed at increasing temperatures from 423 to 1173 K by Controlled Transformation Rate Thermal Analysis (ref. 12).
