Some peculiarities in ESR spectra of titanium complexes in catalysts for isoprene polymerization in excess A1R3

It has been established that at low temperatures of TiCl₄+AOC catalyst preparation in solution (with Ti/Al1/15), ESR spectra exhibit rhombic anisotropy of the g-factor. Experiments with the sample having 61 % concentration of⁴⁷Ti isotopes suggest the formation of associates of Ti³⁺ with magnetic ordering, apparently due to the Jahn-Teller cooperative effect.

Reactivity of benzoic acid esters towards cumylperoxy radicals

The alkoxy groups of aromatic carboxylic acid esters are attacked by cumylperoxy radicals. The rate constants for the abstraction of a hydrogen atom by cumylperoxy radicals are: for methyl benzoate k₂=(4.28±0.8)×10¹⁰ exp (–20.5±1.5/RT) and for ethyl benzoate k₂=(9.41±0.8)×10¹⁰ exp(–18.5±1.5/RT) l/mol sec. The strengths of the primary and the secondary C–H bonds of these compounds have been estimated.

X-ray and thermal studies of ferroelectric Dy2(MoO4)3

Dysprosium molybdate, Dy₂(MoO₄)₃, displays a ferroelectric phase transition at 145 °C. The X-ray and thermal (DTA, TG and DSC) properties of this compound have been studied. The X-ray study confirmed the ferroelectric phase in the orthorhombic space group Pba2. Thermal analysis demonstrated the existence of a ferroelectric and another phase transition in this compound.

Zusammenfassung Dysprosiummolybdat, Dy₂(MoO₄)₃ (Abk.: DMO), ein Vertreter der Seltener-denmolybdatreihe zeigt bei 145 °C einen ferroelektrischen Phasenübergang. Röntgendiffraktion und thermische Eigenschaften (DTA, TG, DSC) der genannten Verbindung wurden untersucht. Auf Grund der Röntgendiffraktionsuntersuchung gehört die ferroelektrische Phase in die orthorhombische Raumgruppe Pba2. Mittels Thermoanalyse konnte bei dieser Verbindung die Existenz ferroelektrischer und anderer Phasenübergänge nachgewiesen werden.

Nature of propene chemisorption centers on molybdenum trioxide

As shown by temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), the quantity of reversibly chemisorbed propane on MoO₃ passes through a maximum depending on the degree of surface reduction. Using the ESR method, it is shown that the centers of propene chemisorption do not contain Mo⁵⁺ ions but presumably isolated Mo⁴⁺ ions.

Influence of Pr ions on the properties of Pd/SiO2 and Pt/SiO2 catalysts in oxidation of n-butane

It has been established that (M_VIII+Pr)/SiO₂ catalysts (M_VIII=Pd or Pt) obtained from organometallic precursors, have increased the dispersity of Pt, but their TN in deep oxidation of n-butane is by 3–6 times lower than that of unmodified M_VIII/SiO₂.

Radiation induced oxidation of ethyldichlorosilane

It has been revealed that the radiation induced oxidation of ethyldichlorosilane by oxygen produces practically one reaction product, namely chlorine-containing disiloxane. A reaction mechanism involving the formation of silyl hydroperoxide as one of the steps is suggested.

Effect of free phosphine on the reactivity of phosphine-containing rhodium(I) complexes

The photolysis products of SO₂-pentane-NO mixtures are N₂O, H₂O and a compound designated as RNO. Kinetic data obtained by OC method confirm the previously proposed scheme of photolysis. Also studied was the photolysis of SO₂, NO and cyclohexane mixtures. From comparison of spectral characteristics of RNO and its analog 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane, the probable structure of RNO is suggested.

Study of hydroisomerization of n-hexane on natural mordenite catalyst

A mordenite-containing rock sample from the Tokaj Mountains (Hungary) and its various forms modified by chemical treatment have been tested for catalytic properties during isomerization of n-hexane. Addition of Pt to the catalyst leads to a sharp decrease in the rate of cracking and in the rate of deactivation and this results in a catalyst of high selectivity for hexane isomers.
