Novel Ammonium Ionophores Based on Glycol Dibenzyl Ethers for an Ion-Selective Electrode

Based on the finding that dibenzyl ether (DBE) exhibited a relatively high selectively for ammonium ion relative to potassium ion, four types of dibenzyl ethers were synthesized and their ammonium ion selectivities over alkali and alkali-earth metal ions

Intramolecular benzyl-benzyl interactions in protonated benzyl diethers in the gas phase. Effects of internal hydrogen bonding

Protonated molecules of a variety of benzyl diethers, produced by chemical ionization (CI), undergo a unique rearrangement yielding relatively abundant mlz 181 C14H13+ ions, both in the ion source and under collision-induc

Monobenzylation of 1,n-diols via dibutylstannylene intermediates

Symmetrical primary 1,n-diols, HO(CH2)(n)OH, of any chain length from n = 2-10, can be selectively monobenzylated via sequential treatment with dibutyltin oxide and benzyl bromide.
