Open Access padlockePrints

The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

On our way to producing all-polymeric self-oscillatory systems, we have expanded the horizons of oscillatory palladium-catalysed oxidative carbonylation reactions by searching for alternative substrates, solvents and even catalysts. In this paper, we demonstrate that pH oscillations of a similar pattern occur both in methanol and ethanol solutions, when using mono- and dialkyne-functionalysed benzenes (phenylacetylene and diethynylbenzene, respectively) and when a non-leaching polyacrylate-palladium catalyst is used. The resulting oscillations are highly regular and can be sustained for a long time, suggesting that carbonylation reactions have strong potential for the discovery and development of new oscillatory chemical systems.
