Treatment of 3,3-dialkylcyclobutanones with titanium(IV) chloride in the presence of aldehyde gave beta'-chloro-beta-hydroxy ketones in high yields. It was speculated that ring cleavage of the cyclobutanone ring with titanium(IV) chloride gave trichlorotitanium enolate having a tertiary alkyl chloride moiety and then aldol reaction of the titanium enolate proceeded. A trialkylsilylmethyl group at the 2-position of cyclobutanone facilitated the ring cleavage. Synthesis of substituted cyclopentenone from an obtained product is also described.

Plastic recycling is gaining traction to reduce the demand for fossil resources for plastic production. Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), mainly used in the packaging and textile sectors, is often isolated in the sinking fraction during the density-based separation of mixed plastic waste streams. The heterogeneity of the sinking fraction makes direct mechanical recycling of PET impossible.

The reaction of titanium(IV) chloride with sodium hexafluoroisopropoxide, carried out in hexafluoroisopropanol, produces titanium(IV) hexafluoroisopropoxide, which is a liquid at room temperature. Recrystallization from coordinating solvents, such as acetonitrile or tetrahydrofuran, results in the formation of bis-solvate complexes. These compounds are of interest as possible Ziegler-Natta polymerization catalysts.

Tin oxide (SnO) has been recognized as one of the beneficial components in the electron transport layer (ETL) of lead-halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) due to its high electron mobility. The SnO-based thin film serves for electron extraction and transport in the device, induced by light absorption at the perovskite layer. The focus of this paper is on the heat treatment of a nanoaggregate layer of single-nanometer-scale SnO particles in combination with another metal-dopant precursor to develop a new process for ETL in PSCs.

Most of the known rearrangement reactions of donor-acceptor cyclopropanes (DACs) involve the migration of cationic carbon atom to anionic carbon or heteroatoms in 1,3- or 1,4-positions. In the present work, we observed that spiro DACs based on 1,3-indanedione or 1-indanone moiety undergo intramolecular 1,2-aroyl migration when treated with titanium(IV) chloride to afford 1,4-naphthoquinones and α-naphthols readily. The reactions take place through the formation of putative 1,3-dipolar intermediates, followed by cleavage and migration of the aroyl group to the adjacent carbon to afford the ring-expansion products.
