La cycloaddition [2+2] du dichlorocétène sur le 7-méthylcycloheptatriène conduit, après expansion de cycle au diazométhane et déshydrohalogénation, à une -chlorotriénone, ceci de manière très sélective. Cet intermédiaire s'est montré très efficace par le passé dans la synthèse de sesquiterpènes naturels possédant le squelette bicyclo[5.3.0]décane (guaianes, guaianolides, azulènes…). Nous avons utilisé cette méthodologie dans une approche synthétique des thapsigargines, des guaianolides naturels à la structure complexe dont un dérivé est à l'étude contre le cancer de la prostate. Nos recherches et notre savoir-faire nous ont permis d'accéder à un intermédiaire avancé pouvant mener à cette famille de composés, il possède les groupements, insaturations et configurations clé nécessaires. Il peut par ailleurs servir de plateforme idéale pour accéder à des azulènes naturels. Nous avons alors en paralèle synthétisé des azulènes bleu, violet et rouge (dont il s'agit de la première synthèse pour ces derniers) / The [2+2] cycloaddition of dichloroketene and 7-methylcycloheptatriene, followed by ring expansion with diazomethane and dehydrohalogenation, affords -chlorotrienone with high selectivity. In the past, this compound proved to be very efficient in the synthesis of natural sesquiterpenes containing the bicyclo[5.3.0]decane squeletton (guaianes, guaianolides, azulenes…). This methodology was used in an efficient synthetic approach of thapsigargins, which are complex guaianolides currently studied to treat prostate cancer via a derivative. Our work led us to get an advanced intermediate for this family, with key moities and configurations. It can also be used to access to natural azulenes. Then we synthetized blue, purple and red azulenes (the first ones for the latters).

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Aromatic hydrocarbons are chemical compounds of great interest in the petrochemical industry. These are commonly derived from reformed naphtha, which are in multicomponent mixtures with aliphatic hydrocarbons. The separation of these components is realized, generally, the liquid-liquid extraction process. In this process, the sulfolane is the most widely used solvent. However, this has some disadvantages such as high cost. For this reason, many studies are developed by the academic community in order to propose alternative solvents to replace the exclusive use of sulfolane by compounds that are important features like good selectivity, easy recoverability and low costs. Given the above, this study main aims to determine liquid-liquid equilibrium data (LLE) to study the ability of solvents [diethylene glycol (DEG), triethylene glycol (TEG), glycerol and 2-hydroxyethyl amine format (2-HEAF)] in extracting aromatic mixtures with aliphatic. The physical properties also of great importance in the understanding of the behavior and interactions that occur in liquid mixtures. Thus, in this study were also studied the density and viscosity of solvent extractors aromatic. The experimental methodology for the determination of LLE data was initially validated by reproducing the literature, and the results showed good agreement between these data. After the method has been validated, solubility curves and tie-lines were constructed for systems containing decane + toluene + DEG (+ TEG, + glycerol, + 2-HEAF, + sulfolane) at T = (303.15 and 333.15) K. The composition data of tie-lines, obtained experimentally, were used to calculate the selectivity parameter and the distribution coefficient. With this data, it can be concluded that all the solvents studied have a good capacity for toluene extraction from mixtures with decane. However, the glycerol has presented as the most promising solvent for aromatics extraction. Finally, the experimental data were correlated through the thermodynamic activity coefficient models, NRTL and UNIQUAC. The results were considered satisfactory, noting that the NRTL was the model that presented minor deviations in compositions. Thus, best represented the LLE data for the systems studied. / Os hidrocarbonetos aromÃticos sÃo compostos quÃmicos de grande interesse na indÃstria petroquÃmica. Estes sÃo comumente originados da nafta reformada, onde encontram-se em misturas multicomponentes com hidrocarbonetos alifÃticos. A separaÃÃo destes componentes à realizada, em sua grande maioria, pelo processo de extraÃÃo lÃquido-lÃquido. Nesse processo, o sulfolano à o solvente mais utilizado. No entanto, este apresenta algumas desvantagens, tais como alto custo. Por esse motivo, inÃmeros estudos sÃo realizados pela comunidade acadÃmica a fim de propor solventes alternativos que substituam o uso exclusivo do sulfolano por compostos que tambÃm apresentem caracterÃsticas importantes, como boa seletividade, boa recuperabilidade e baixos custos. Diante do exposto, o presente trabalho tem como principal objetivo determinar dados de equilÃbrio lÃquido-lÃquido (ELL) para estudar a capacidade dos solventes [dietilenoglicol (DEG), trietilenoglicol (TEG), glicerina e 2-hidroxietilamina formato (2-HEAF)] em extrair aromÃticos das misturas com alifÃticos. As propriedades fÃsicas tambÃm assumem extrema importÃncia no conhecimento do comportamento e das interaÃÃes que ocorrem nas misturas de lÃquidos. Deste modo, neste trabalho foram estudados a densidade e a viscosidade de solventes extratores de aromÃticos. A metodologia experimental para obtenÃÃo dos dados de ELL foi inicialmente validada reproduzindo dados da literatura, e os resultados mostraram uma boa concordÃncia entre estes dados. ApÃs a metodologia ter sido validada foram construÃdas curvas de solubilidade e tie-lines para os sistemas contendo decano + tolueno + DEG (+ TEG, + glicerina, + 2-HEAF, + sulfolano) a T = (303,15 e 333,15) K. Os dados de composiÃÃo das tie-lines, obtidos experimentalmente, foram utilizados para calcular o parÃmetro de seletividade e o coeficiente de distribuiÃÃo. De posse desses dados, pode-se concluir que todos os solventes estudados apresentam boa capacidade para extraÃÃo de tolueno a partir de misturas com decano. No entanto, a glicerina destacou-se como o solvente mais promissor para a extraÃÃo de aromÃticos apresentando os maiores valores para seletividade. Finalmente, os dados experimentais foram correlacionados atravÃs dos modelos termodinÃmicos de coeficiente de atividade, NRTL e UNIQUAC. Os resultados foram considerados satisfatÃrios, observando-se que o NRTL foi o modelo que apresentou os menores desvios na composiÃÃo. Dessa forma, representou melhor os dados de ELL para os sistemas estudados.

This thesis describes synthetic studies directed towards the total synthesis of the nakafuran and florlide marine natural products. Chapter One provides an overview of the importance of natural products to current medicinal chemistry and describes how the "supply issue" associated with these biologically derived compounds can be resolved through the process of total synthesis. Two families of marine natural products, the nakafurans and the florlides, are introduced as synthetic targets and strategies utilising a type II intramolecular Diels-Alder (IMDA) reaction to achieve their total synthesis are delineated. The efficient preparation of regio- and stereodefined vinyl coupling fragments via hydrostannylation and hydrohalogenation methodology is described in Chapter Two. The palladium-catalysed cross-coupling of these fragments, via Stille or Negishi coupling methodology, yielded dienes which were successfully advanced to IMDA triene precursors. Chapter Three describes investigation of the type II IMDA reaction to give bicyclo[4.3.1]decene carbocyclic skeletons. A facile acid-catalysed 6,7-alkene to 7,8-alkene olefinic isomerisation, via a proposed oxonium intermediate, and the inability to appropriately functionalise the desired adducts impeded progress along the synthetic route. Molecular modelling was conducted to investigate the causes of this unexpected reactivity. Investigations in Chapter Four describe the successful synthesis and cyclisation of homomethyl triene analogues prepared via application of enyne metathesis chemistry. The use of an exo-cyclopropylcarbinyl fragmentation was found to be unsuccessful as a means of installing the desired 6-methyl-bicyclo[4.3.1]decan-2-one core with a competing endo-ring expansion giving rise to a bicyclo[4.4.1]undecane ring system. Chapter 5 summarises the above results and gives a brief discussion of the future potential of this research to provide for a total synthesis of the nakafuran and florlide natural products.

Les turbomachines actuelles ont atteint un niveau de maturité technique très élevé. De nouvelles architectures reposant sur des cycles thermodynamiques basés sur une combustion à gain de pression, comme la combustion à volume constant (CVC), ont le potentiel d’augmenter leur efficacité. Dans cette étude,une solution qui repose sur l’intégration dans une turbomachine de chambres de combustion à volume constant sans piston (CVCSP) est considérée. Les objectifs de ces travaux de thèse sont doubles : dans un premier temps de développer et de caractériser extensivement un nouveau dispositif (CV2) dédié à la Combustion à volume constant sans piston sur un cas de référence et, dans un second temps, de proposer à travers plusieurs études, une analyse de l’influence de l’aérodynamique et de la dilution sur les processus d’allumage et, plus généralement de combustion. Le dispositif CV2 permet la combustion aérobie en allumage commandé d’un mélange de propane ou de n-décane, injecté directement dans la chambre. Un point de référence est caractérisé en détail via : des mesures de champs de vitesse par PIV, de chimiluminescence pendant la combustion, une analyse 0D développée dans cette étude. La caractérisation détaillée de ce point de référence montre que le dispositif CV2 reproduit correctement une combustion à volume constant turbulente dans un mélange faiblement hétérogène en température et stratifié en composition, et ce sur un nombre de cycles permettant d’établir une convergence statistique raisonnable. Ces diagnostics et analyses sont employés dans 2 cas d’études pour caractériser successivement : l’influence de l’aérodynamique, via une variation de l’instant d’allumage, l’influence des gaz brûlés résiduels sur la combustion en allumage commandé et la stabilité cyclique, via une variation de la pression d’échappement.Dans un fonctionnement sans balayage, on montre que cette variabilité cyclique est liée au premier ordre à la variation de la dilution en gaz brûlé résiduel du mélange et à la vitesse locale. On montre notamment que, pour un mélange donné, il existe une corrélation statistique entre une vitesse statistique limite et la probabilité d’allumage moyenne. Pour représenter l’effet de pression dans un plénum en amont d’une turbine, on réalise une étude paramétrique sur la pression d’échappement. La dilution résultante, croissant avec la pression d’échappement, diminue la vitesse fondamentale de flamme et ralentit donc la combustion. Les niveaux de températures des gaz brûlés résiduels résultent des échanges de chaleur qui ont lieu sur toute la durée du cycle, de l’allumage du cycle N à celui du cycle N+1 suivant. Des extrapolations sur des cycles à température de paroi plus élevée et à échappement plus court montrent que l’adiabaticité du cycle est améliorée (de 20 %) et que l’effet de dilution en température est alors favorable à une vitesse de flamme turbulente qui est alors plus élevée. Un phénomène d’allumage par gaz brûlé résiduel est observé sur certains cycles de combustion. Ce phénomène est caractérisé dans des conditions favorables, i.e. faible richesse (0.66), allumage tardif et cycle plus court. Lors d’un allumage par gaz brûlés résiduels, un noyau de flamme se développe dans les zones présentant des gaz brûlés résiduels chauds et à basse vitesse autour du jet d’admission et se propage ensuite au reste du mélange identiquement à celui qui serait généré par allumage commandé.Ce travail prend place dans le cadre de la chaire industrielle CAPA sur la combustion alternative pour la propulsion aérobie financée par SAFRAN Tech, MBDA et l’ANR. / Current turbomachines have reached a very high level of technical maturity. Thermodynamic cycles based on pressure-gain combustion, such as constant volume combustion (CVC), feature a clear potential for efficiency improvement. The present study considers the integration in a turbomachine of piston-lessCVC chambers. The thesis work is twofold. First, a new experimental setup (CV2) dedicated to cyclic piston-less CVC is developed and thoroughly characterized on a reference operating point. Second, the influence of the aerodynamics and dilution on the processes of ignition and, in a larger sense, on combustion is discussed through dedicated studies. The CV2 device allows for the spark-ignited air-breathing combustion of a mixture of either propane orn-decane, directly injected into the chamber. A reference condition is characterized in details using: PIV velocity field measurements, chemiluminescence of combustion and a 0D modeling of the device. This detailed characterization evidenced that the CV2 combustion chamber successfully replicates, on a number of cycles allowing a reasonable statistical convergence, a turbulent deflagrative constant-volume combustion in a mixture stratified in composition. Those diagnostics and analyses are applied to 2 cases of study to characterize successively : the influence of the aerodynamics, through a variation of the ignition timing, the influence of the residual burnt gases on spark-ignited combustion and the cyclic stability, through a variation of the exhaust backpressure.Operating the device without scavenging of the combustion chamber, we show that the cyclic variability correlates strongly with both the variation of residual burnt gases dilution and the local velocity. Particularly, we show that for a given mixture, a correlation exists between a statistical velocity limit and the average probability of ignition. The effect of a plenum backpressure upstream of a turbine, downstream of the combustion chamber, is simulated by varying the exhaust system backpressure. The resulting dilution, which increases with the exhaust backpressure, diminishes the fundamental flame velocity of the mixture and slows down the combustion. The residual burnt gases temperature results from the integrated heat exchanges that happen during the total cycle duration starting from the end of combustion of cycle N, to the ignition of cycle N+1. Enhanced cycles, with an increased wall temperature and reduced exhaust duration, are extrapolated by 0D analysis. Those cycles evidence a reduction of the cumulated heat exchanges of up to 20 %. The resulting dilutionis more favorable to higher turbulent flame velocity thus to shorter combustion duration. A phenomenon of ignition induced by the residual burnt gases is observed on certain combustion cycles. This phenomenon is characterized in favorable conditions, i.e. fuel-lean equivalence ratio (0.66), late ignition and shortcycles. During an ignition by residual burnt gases, a flame kernel is ignited in areas where the still hot residuals burnt gases meet fresh gases in low-velocity areas around the intake jet. The ignition kernel then propagates to the rest of the mixture in a similar manner as if it was spark-ignited.This work is part of the CAPA Chair research program on Alternative Combustion modes for Air-breathing Propulsion supported by SAFRAN Tech, MBDAFrance and ANR (French National Research Agency).

L’allumage par claquage laser non résonant des mélanges réactifs considérés à l’état gazeux et au repos est étudié dans ce travail, principalement avec des mélanges n-décane/air (C₁₀H₂₂+N₂+O₂). Ce système est considéré comme étant prometteur dans les différentes stratégies futures concernant les systèmes d’allumages équipant les moteurs à combustion interne. Le plasma d’allumage est généré en focalisant un faisceau laser de haute intensité pendant quelques nanosecondes. Le laser Nd :YAG opère à 1064 nm, il est choisi comme source laser pour l’ensemble des expériences menées en laboratoire afin de montrer l’effet des paramètres physiques, optiques, thermodynamiques (pression) et chimiques (additifs : H₂O, Ar) sur les caractéristiques de l’allumage. Cette étude met en oeuvre une approche statistique sur l’ensemble des expériences en prenant en compte l’ensemble des mesures prises lors de la combustion. Ce manuscrit offre une base de données expérimentale permettant d’appréhender la combustion et la phénoménologie de claquage laser. / Ignition by non-resonant laser breakdown of quiescent reactive mixtures was considered in this experimental study working with gaseous state. In this work, we mainly study the ignition of n-decane / air (C₁₀H₂₂+N₂+O₂) mixtures. This system is considered promising in different future strategies regarding ignitions systems for internal combustion engines. The breakdown is generated by focusing a high intensity laser beam for a few nanoseconds using Nd: YAG laser operating at 1064 nm, it is chosen as the laser source for all experiments conducted here. The experimental plan conducted allows to examine the effect of physical, optical, thermodynamic (pressure) and chemicals (additives: H₂O, Ar) on the characteristics of the laser ignition. This study implements a statistical approach on all the experimental cases taking into account all the measures during breakdown and combustion. This manuscript provides bibliographic basis for understanding combustion and laser breakdown phenomenology.

En raison de la complexité de leur composition, l’étude de l’oxydation des gazoles et des carburants biodiesel nécessite de choisir des molécules modèles représentant ces mélanges. Dans ce contexte nous avons sélectionné deux molécules pouvant représenter les gazoles : le n-décane, souvent considéré comme molécule modèle des paraffines contenues dans les gazoles, et le n-hexadécane, molécule de référence pour l’estimation de l’indice cétane, ainsi que deux molécules représentant les carburants biodiesel : le palmitate de méthyle (C17H34O2, ester méthylique saturé) et l’oléate de méthyle (C19H36O2, ester méthylique insaturé). L’étude de l’oxydation de ces molécules a été menée en réacteur auto-agité par jets gazeux, à une richesse de 1, des températures comprises entre 550 et 1100 K, à pression atmosphérique et à un temps de passage constant de 1,5 s. La formation d’un nombre important d’espèces a été observée parmi lesquelles figurent des oléfines, des diènes, des esters méthyliques insaturés, des éthers cycliques avec différentes tailles de cycle, des cétones et des aldéhydes. Grâce à deux nouvelles versions du logiciel EXGAS, des mécanismes cinétiques détaillés de l’oxydation des molécules étudiées ont été générés et validés par comparaison avec les résultats expérimentaux. Enfin, une comparaison de la réactivité du n-décane, du n-hexadécane, du palmitate de méthyle et de l’oléate de méthyle et des quantités de produits formées (dont certains polluants) a été effectuée / Because of the complexity of their compositions, the study of the oxidation of diesel and biodiesel fuels requires choosing model molecules (surrogates) representing the real mixtures. In this context, we have selected two molecules to represent the diesel fuel: n-decane, usually considered as model molecule of paraffin contained in diesel fuel, and n-hexadecane, molecule of reference for the estimation of the cetane number, and two molecules representing biodiesel fuel: methyl palmitate (C17H34O2, a saturated methyl ester) and methyl oleate (C19H36O2, an unsaturated methyl ester). The study of oxidation of these molecules has been conducted in a jet-stirred reactor, with an equivalence ratio of 1, temperatures between 550 and 1100 K, at atmospheric pressure and for a constant residence time of 1.5 sec. The formation of a large number of species has been observed which includes olefins, dienes, unsaturated methyl esters, cyclic ethers with different size of ring, ketones and aldehydes. Using two new versions of EXGAS software, detailed kinetic mechanisms for the oxidation of the studied molecules were generated and validated by comparaison with experiemental results. Finally, a comparison of the reactivity of n-decane, n-hexadecane, methyl palmitate and methyl oleate and amounts of formed products (including some pollutants) has been performed
