Reactivity of organic compounds in superheated water: general background

Article Abstract:

The focus of the review is the transformations of organic compounds in pure superheated water and elevated temperatures. Discussion on the relevance of aqueous chemistry to high temperature petroleum generation, kerogen formation leading to petroleum by depolymerization, and solvent properties of water at 250-350 C is presented.

Reactions in high-temperature aqueous media

Article Abstract:

The review focuses on the products of the reactions between organic compounds and superheated water and the mechanisms governing their formation. The the dissociation constant of water increases with increasing temperature rendering it a stronger acid and a stronger base. Furthermore, heterocyclic rings of the organic compounds react readily in superheated water.

Properties and synthetic utility of N-substituted benzotriazoles

Article Abstract:

Benzotriazole can be utilized in various organic chemical applications and its N-substituted derivatives contain electron-donor and electron acceptor properties. This compound, which is a soluble of ethanol, benzene, toluene and chloroform, can also be a useful synthetic auxiliary if it can be easily removed in a synthetic sequence, introduced at the beginning of a sequence and can stay stable during synthetic operations. Benzotriazole also possesses leaving abilities, nonvolatile and versatile properties.
