A novel compound for a capping layer, and an organic light-emitting device containing the same are disclosed.

A chemically amplified positive-type photosensitive resin composition capable of suppressing the occurrence of footing in which the width of the bottom (the side proximal to the surface of a support) becomes narrower than that of the top (the side proximal to the surface of a resist layer) in the nonresist portion; and the generation of development residue when a resist pattern serving as a template for a plated article is formed on a metal surface of a substrate using the photosensitive resin composition. A mercapto compound having a specific structure is included in the photosensitive resin composition, and includes an acid generator which generates acid upon exposure to an irradiated active ray or radiation, and a resin whose solubility in alkali increases under the action of acid.

Disclosed are compounds of Formulas (I), (II), (III), (IV), and (V):

The present application provides a method for preparing a deuterated chemical by means of a deuteration reaction of a carbon-hydrogen bond with a deuterium gas under the catalysis of an alkali, wherein in the presence of a catalyst, a deuterium gas is added into a compound containing a carbon-hydrogen bond for a deuteration reaction so as to generate a deuterated compound. A deuterium gas is used as a deuterium source, such that multiple water separation operations, tedious steps and the wasting of energy caused by usage of a large amount of deuterium oxide as a deuterium source are avoided. Moreover, a cheap and easily available alkali metal compound is used for replacing an expensive transition metal catalyst and a complex-structure ligand as a catalyst for a deuteration reaction, and the alkali metal compound has the advantages of a low cost, a good compatibility with functional groups of a substrate and a high deuteration rate. The present application provides a new, low-cost, green and efficient deuteration method, which has a high application value.

Processes for removing carbon disulfide from product streams containing a sulfide compound are performed by contacting the product stream with an alkanolamine and converting the carbon disulfide to a higher boiling point product, thereby reducing or eliminating carbon disulfide from the product stream. Subsequent removal of the higher boiling point product via distillation can lead to a purified sulfide stream with high purity.
