There are the results of experimental and theoretical studies on the propagation of weak shock waves in the wet sand at different water saturation. There are mathematical model and numerical analysis of propagation of pressure pulses in porous media, taking into account capillary forces. Non-monotonic dependence of the amplitude of the wave resulting in a wet porous medium vs. the degree of water saturation is installed. The evolution of the fast, slow and filtration waves depends on the saturation of the system with water is analyzed. The influence of capillary forces on the propagation of longitudinal waves is evaluated.

A new, efficient, catalytic difluorocarbenation of olefins to give 1,1-difluorocyclopropanes is presented. The catalyst, an organobismuth complex, uses TMSCF<sub>3</sub> as a stoichiometric difluorocarbene source. We demonstrate both the viability and robustness of this reaction over a wide range of alkenes and alkynes, including electron-poor alkenes, to generate the corresponding 1,1-difluorocyclopropanes and 1,1-difluorocyclopropenes. Ease of catalyst recovery from the reaction mixture is another attractive feature of this method. In depth experimental and theoretical studies showed that the key difluorocarbene-generating step proceeds through a bismuth non-redox synchronous mechanism generating a highly reactive free CF<sub>2</sub> in an endergonic pre-equilibrium. It is the reversibility when generating the difluorocarbene that accounts for the high selectivity, while minimizing CF<sub>2</sub>-recombination side-reactions.
