General Description

1,14-Dibromotetradecane is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C14H28Br2. It is a long-chain alkane with two bromine atoms attached to the carbon 1 and 14 positions. 1,14-Dibromotetradecane is commonly used in organic synthesis and chemical research as a building block in the production of various organic molecules. It is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is insoluble in water. 1,14-Dibromotetradecane is also used in the manufacturing of surfactants, detergents, and lubricants, as well as in the production of pharmaceuticals and agricultural chemicals. However, it is important to handle this chemical with care as it is toxic and may cause skin and eye irritation upon contact.

Electrostatic Control of Macrocyclization Reactions within Nanospaces

The intrinsic structural complexity of proteins makes it hard to identify the contributions of each noncovalent interaction behind the remarkable rate accelerations of enzymes. Coulombic forces are evidently primary, but despite developments in artificial nanoreactor design, a picture of the extent to which these can contribute has not been forthcoming. Here we report on two supramolecular capsules that possess structurally identical inner-spaces that differ in the electrostatic potential (EP) field that envelops them: one positive and one negative. This architecture means that only changes in the EP field influence the chemical properties of encapsulated species. We quantify these influences via acidity and rates of cyclization measurements for encapsulated guests, and we confirm the primary role of Coulombic forces with a simple mathematical model approximating the capsules as Born spheres within a continuum dielectric. These results reveal the reaction rate accelerations possible under Coulombic control and highlight important design criteria for nanoreactors.

Improved Syntheses of Benzyl Hydraphile Synthetic Cation-Conducting Channels

The tris(macrocycle)s that function in bilayer membranes as ion channels have recently shown versatile new applications such as antibiotic synergists and as agents for direct injection chemotherapy. This report records the development of new and versatile approaches to these molecules that produce significantly better overall yields for a group of previously reported hydraphiles having spacer chains ranging from octylene to hexadecylene.

A photoirradiative phase-vanishing method: Efficient generation of HBr from alkanes and molecular bromine and its use for subsequent radical addition to terminal alkenes

A triphasic phase-vanishing (PV) system comprised of an alkane, perfluorohexanes, and bromine was successfully combined by photoirradiation to efficiently generate hydrogen bromide, which underwent radical addition with 1-alkenes in the hydrocarbon layer to afford terminal bromides in high yields.
