The Unimolecular Chemistry of +.: a Rationale in Terms of Hydrogen-bridged Radical Cations

By combining results from a variety of mass spectrometric techniques (metastable ion, collisional activation, collision-induced dissociative ionization, neutralization-reionization spectrometry and appearance energy measurements) and the classical method of isotopic labelling, a unified mechanism is proposed for the complex unimolecular chemistry of ionized 1,2-propanediol.The key intermediates involved are the stable hydrogen-bridged radical cations +., which were generated independently from +. (loss of C2H4) and +. (loss of CH2O), +. and the related ion-dipole complex +..The latter species serves as the precursor for the loss of CH3. and in this reaction the same non-ergodic behaviour is observed as in the loss of CH3. from the ionized enol of acetone.

Page/Page column 39, (2018/11/22)
The present disclosure relates to new transition metal isonitrile compounds, processes for the production of the compounds and the use of the compounds as catalysts. The disclosure also relates to the use of the metal isonitrile compounds as catalysts for hydrogenation and transfer hydrogenation of compounds containing one or more carbon-oxygen, and/or carbon-nitrogen and/or carbon-carbon double bonds.
Enantiomeric Interactions and Reaction Rates: Ketalization of (S)- and (RS)-1,2-Propanediols

Aliphatic ketones, e.g., butanone, are converted nearly quantitatively to the corresponding dioxolanes (ketals) in neat (S)- or (RS)-1,2-propanediol containing dichloroacetic acid.The reactions follow the pseudo-first-order law at a given acid concentration, are inhibited by water, and proceed approximately twofold faster in (RS)-diol-O,O-d2 than in undeuterated diol.No difference in rates greater than 1percent could be detected between (S)- and (RS)-diols at identical temperatures, acid concentrations, and water concentrations.Thus, for a chiral diol molecule and the activated complex, free-energy differences are virtually the same in (S)- and (RS)-diols as solvents.Differences in interactions among identical and enantiomeric molecules, if any, are evidently matched by differences in the activated complexes.
