Photochemical dimerization of organic compounds

Patent Crabtree, R H; Brown, S H; Muedas, C A; ...

This patent describes improvement in a Group IIb photosensitized vapor phase dimerization of an organic compound in which a gaseous mixture of a Group IIB metal and the organic compound is irradiated in a reaction zone with a photosensitizing amount of radiant energy. The improvement comprises: a continuous stream of the gaseous mixture is passed as a vapor phase in a single pass through the reaction zone at a temperature at which the thus-produced dimer condenses immediately upon the formation thereof; the starting gaseous mixture comprises hydrogen and two ethylenically unsaturated compounds selected from the group consisting of alkenes ofmore »« less
Photochemical dimerization and functionalization of alkanes, ethers, primary alcohols and silanes

Patent Crabtree, Robert H [Bethany, CT]; Brown, Stephen H [East Haven, CT]

The space-time yield and/or the selectivity of the photochemical dimerization of alkanes, ethers, primary alcohols and tertiary silanes with Hg and U.V. light is enhanced by refluxing the substrate in the irradiated reaction zone at a temperature at which the dimer product condenses and remains condensed promptly upon its formation. Cross-dimerization of the alkanes, ethers and silanes with primary alcohols is disclosed, as is the functionalization to aldehydes of the alkanes with carbon monoxide.

Electrolytic photodissociation of chemical compounds by iron oxide photochemical diodes

Patent Somorjai, Gabor A [Berkeley, CA]; Leygraf, Christofer H [Berkeley, CA]

Chemical compounds can be dissociated by contacting the same with a p/n type semi-conductor photochemical diode having visible light as its sole source of energy. The photochemical diode consists of low cost, readily available materials, specifically polycrystalline iron oxide doped with silicon in the case of the n-type semi-conductor electrode, and polycrystalline iron oxide doped with magnesium in the case of the p-type electrode. So long as the light source has an energy greater than 2.2 electron volts, no added energy source is needed to achieve dissociation.

Organic solid state switches incorporating porphyrin compounds and method for producing organic solid state optical switches

Patent Wasielewski, Michael R [Naperville, IL]; Gaines, George L [River Forest, IL]; Niemczyk, Mark P [Wheaton, IL]; ...

A light-intensity dependent molecular switch comprised of a compound which shuttles an electron or a plurality of electrons from a plurality of electron donors to an electron acceptor upon being stimulated with light of predetermined wavelengths, said donors selected from porphyrins and other compounds, and a method for making said compound.
