Silicon tetrachloride is a toxic, corrosive water reactive substance that is used widely in the process industries. On spillage from containment it creates liquid pools that can either boil or evaporate. The main feature of the pool behaviour is the

Virtually perfect transmittal of the enolate reactivity up to five conjugated double bonds from the origin allows a series of furan-based silyloxypolyenes to add to aldehyde carbonyls at the most distant point of the molecule. Denmark's axially chiral bisphosphoramide/SiCl(4) combination

A series of four asymmetrically aryl-substituted 9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (SSF) derivatives, 2,2'-di-tert-butyl-7,7'-diphenyl-9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (PhSSF), 2,2'-di-tert-butyl-7,7'-dipyridin-2-yl-9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (PySSF), 2,2'-di-tert-butyl-7,7'-dibiphenyl-4-yl-9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (BPhSSF), and 2,2'-di-tert-butyl-7,7'-bis(2',2' '-bipyridin-6-yl)-9,9'-spiro-9-silabifluorene (BPySSF) are prepared through the cyclization of the corresponding 2,2'-dilithiobiphenyls with silicon tetrachloride. These novel spiro-linked silacyclopentadienes (siloles) form transparent and stable

Synthetic nanoscaled metal oxides are mainly produced by pyrogenic decomposition of precursors in the gas phase using a hot-wall or plasma reactor. Due to their low production rate and limited scalability, these processes are of minor technical relevance in manufacturing

Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters, 22(6), 2235-2238 (2012-02-22)
A series of novel 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors was prepared via treatment of various diaryl amides with tetrachlorosilane/sodium azide. All compounds were tested in cyclooxygenase (COX) assays in vitro to determine COX-1 and COX-2 inhibitory potency and selectivity.
