A stereospecific one-pot synthesis of β-chloro esters via the BiCl<inf>3</inf> catalysed O-acylative cleavage of crowded epoxides

The hydrolysis of geminal ethers: A kinetic appraisal of orthoesters and ketals
© 2016 Repetto et al. A novel approach to protecting jet fuel against the effects of water contamination is predicated upon the coupling of the rapid hydrolysis reactions of lipophilic cyclic geminal ethers, with the concomitant production of a hydrophilic acyclic hydroxyester with de-icing properties (Fuel Dehydrating Icing Inhibitors - FDII). To this end, a kinetic appraisal of the hydrolysis reactions of representative geminal ethers was undertaken using a convenient surrogate for the fuel-water interface (D2 O/CD3 CN 1:4). We present here a library of acyclic and five/six-membered cyclic geminal ethers arranged according to their hydroxonium catalytic coefficients for hydrolysis, providing for the first time a framework for the development of FDII. A combination of 1H NMR, labelling and computational studies was used to assess the effects that may govern the observed relative rates of hydrolyses
Preliminary acoustic and oceanographic observations from the ASIAEX 2001 South China Sea Experiment
The Asian Seas International Experiment (ASIAEX) was a very successful scientific collaboration between the United States of
America (USA), the People’s Republic of China (PRC), Taiwan (ROC), the Republic of Korea (ROK), Japan, Russia, and
Singapore. Preliminary field experiments associated with ASIAEX began in spring of 2000. The main experiments were performed
in April-August, 2001. The scientific plan called for two major acoustics experiments, the first a bottom interaction experiment in
the East China Sea (ECS) and the second a volume interaction experiment in the South China Sea (SCS). In addition to the
acoustics efforts, there were also extremely strong physical oceanography and geology and geophysics components to the
experiments. This report will concentrate on describing the moored component of the South China Sea portion of ASIAEX 2001
performed from the Taiwan Fisheries research vessel FR1 (Fisheries Researcher 1). Information on the environmental moorings
deployed from the Taiwanese oceanographic research vessel OR1 (Oceanographic Researcher 1) will also be listed here for
completeness, so that the reader can pursue later analyses of the data. This report does not pursue any data analyses per se.Funding was provided by the Office of Naval Research under Grant Numbers
