O? ]₂, ammonium cyclotriphosphatophosphonates Ammonium organyldiphosphonates And ammonium diphosphites are prepared in high yields on heating acidic phosphates, phosphonates, and phosphites in urea or urea/ammonium nitrate melts.

Darstellung und Eigenschaften von Ti-substituierten N-Heterocyclen

Preparation and Properties of Ti-substituted N-Heterocycles The compounds (x = 2 to 6) have been prepared by transamination of Ti(NMe₂)₄ with the heterocyclic amines and have been characterised by elemental analyses and ¹H NMR and IR spectroscopy. The dependence on both x and n of the thermal decomposition has been studied for the series and . The results can be interpreted in terms of the steric strain of the R₂N and substituents. Apart from the piperidido groups none of the ligands exhibit protective group properties comparable to the R₂N groups.     

ETUDE EN SPECTROMETRIE DE MASSE DE PHOSPHONATES ENYNIQUES ET DE β-CETOPHOSPHONATES-γ, δ-ETHYLENIQUES

The mass spectrometric study of acetylenic dialkylphosphonates (I) and of γ, δ-éthylenic-β-ketophosphonates (II) is characterised by rearrangement processes of the phosphorylated group and cleavage of the phosphorus-carbon bond. The fragmentation patterns of compounds II were identical to those found for I by loss of water.     

Durch Nachbargruppenbeteiligung induzierte (1,2)-Chlorwasserstoff-Eliminierung aus ionisiertem 2-(β-Chloräthyl)- benzoesäuremethylester

By using deuterium labelled compounds and collisional activation spectra the mechanism of the unusually intensive HCl elimination from 2-(β-chloroalkyl)benzoic acid methyl ester as well as the structure of the product ion have been elucidated. It can be shown that the structure of the stable ion (lifetime τ～10?5 s) is best represented by 2-vinyl benzoic acid methyl ester whereas the reactive ion (lifetime τ<10^?6 s) at least partially rearranges to a cyclic ion. The hydrogen chloride elimination from 2-(β-chloroalkyl)benzoic acid is apparently a simple 1,2 process. A closer examination reveals that the reaction represents a further example of an unusual neighbouring group participation of the ester function.     

Kinetics of the First Order Autocatalytic Decomposition Reaction of Nitrocellulose （13.86% N）

The kinetics of the first order autocatalytic decomposition reaction of nitrocellulose (NC, 13.86% N) was studied by using DSC. The results show that the DSC curve for the initial 50% of conversion degree of NC can be de scribed by the first order autocatalytic equation dy/dt =-10^16.3 exp (-181860/RT)y-10^16.7ex(-173050/RT)y(1-y) and that for the latter 50% conversion degree of NC described by the reaction equations dy/dt=-10^16.4exp(-154820/RT)y (n=1) and dy/dt=-10^16.9 exp(-155270/RT) y^2.80(n≠1).     

Kinetics of recombination,dismutation, and disproportionation reactions involving neutral ketyl radicals and radical anions

The kinetics of fast elementary recombination of neutral ketyl radicals of benzophenone and its four derivatives (BPH?), the dismutation of benzophenone radical anions, the disproportionation between BPH? and stable nitroxyl radicals, ( ), and the electron transfer have been investigated in both individual solvents and binary mixtures of different viscosities. Reaction (1) for unsubstituted BPH in water, water glycerol, and n-hexane is controlled by diffusion with 2k₁ ? k_diff. In aliphatic alcohols and toluene, which form solvation complexes with BPH?, reaction (1) is diffusion-enhanced and activation-controlled, respectively, with 2k₁ < k_diff. In a viscous solvent such as 1-propanol–glycerol mixture (100 ? η ? 450 cP) reaction (1) is diffusion-controlled. Reaction (2) in alkaline 1-propanol and alkaline 1-propanol–glycerol mixture is activation controlled. The rates of reactions (3) and (4) for benzophenone radicals and nitroxyl radicals of the imidazoline series decrease as the viscosity of the water–glycerol and 1-propanol–glycerol mixtures is increased. The reactions are molecular mobility limited; nevertheless, the numerical values of k₃ (k₄) are 2–6 times as small as the corresponding k_diff values due to the low steric factor of the reactions (therefore called pseudodiffusion-controlled reactions). The theoretical estimates of k₃ (k₄) are in good agreement with the experimental results. The elimination of spin forbiddance in the process of radical recombination in viscous solvents is discussed.     

Electron impact studies. CVII—Negative ion mass spectra of the oxime group. Monoximes derived from α-dicarbonyl systems

Specific losses of water are observed from the molecular anions of monoximes of α-diketones. Labelling studies, kinetic energy release values and the +E spectra of ions have been used to aid in the elucidation of the fragmentation pathways. It is proposed that the majority of ions have α-keto nitrile structures.     

Effect of gegen ion in cationic polymerization and copolymerization of trioxane

p-Chlorophenyldiazonium hexafluorophosphate has been reported to be a superior catalyst for cationic polymerization and copolymerization of trioxane as compared to boron trifluoride dibutyl etherate (BF₃·Bu₂O)¹. In the present investigation the effect of anions derived from elements in Group VA, AsF and SbF, has been ascertained. It has been concluded that p-chlorophenyldiazonium hexafluoroarsenate is also a superior catalyst to boron trifluoride dibutyletherate (BF₃·Bu₂O), while p-chlorophenyl-diazonium hexafluoroantimonate is inferior. Copolymers with the highest polymer yield (>95%) and molecular weight (intrinsic viscosity = 4 to 5) were obtained with Simple dependences on catalyst concentration have been observed to hold for a wide catalyst concentration range ([M]/[C]) = (1 to 20) × 10⁵: For the same relationships hold. However, the polymer yield (75%) and molecular weights (intrinsic viscosity ?1) are considerably lower while the extent of chain transfer is higher. Furthermore, the polymerization proceeds with explosive violence. The quantitative aspects resulting from polymerization, for the most part, can be interpreted in terms of the extent of dissociation of the propagating ions.     

The pyrolyses of tri- and tetramethylethylene in the presence of nitric oxide

The pyrolyses of trimethylethylene and tetramethylethylene have been investigated in the presence and absence of nitric oxide. It appears that apart from a unimolecular split, e.g., a disproportionation reaction such as may play an important role in initiation. Nitric oxide had no effect on H₂ production, which is probably a molecular process. There was similar behavior of both compounds in the presence of NO, indicating that the olefinic hydrogen atom does not play a decisive role. Other aspects of the mechanisms are discussed.     

Efficient regioselective synthesis of 4‐ and 5‐substituted isoxazoles under thermal and microwave conditions

The [2+3] cycloaddition reaction between nitrile oxides 2 and the captodative olefins 1 or the methyl crotonate derivatives 4 is regioselective and leads to the formation of the 5‐substituted amino‐isoxazole 3 or the 4‐substituted methoxycarbonyl‐isoxazole 5 derivatives, respectively. All these reactions are greatly accelerated by microwave irradiation without changing their regioselectivity with respect to the thermal conditions.     

Modification of poly(vinyl alcohol) through reaction with phosphorus-containing reactants

Crosslinked products of the form: and have been formed from the interfacial condensation of phosphorus diacid halides with poly(vinyl alcohol). Product yield and amounts of phosphorus reactant included in the product increases as the amount of base increases. Product stability in aqueous systems decreases in the order neutral > base > acid.     

The mass spectra of some chlorinated aromatic pesticidal compounds

Mass spectral studies of some chlorinated aromatic pesticidal compounds are reported. The compounds studied include substituted diphenyl derivatives of methane, ethene and methanol. The diphenylmethanes are characterized by a relatively intense peak at m/e 165. Comparison of their low voltage spectra with 9-dichloromethylfluorene indicates that this ion has a fluorenyl ion structure. The structure of the base peak (m/e 246) of the diphenylethenes was investigated by comparing competitive metastable transitions with 9-dichloromethylenefluorene and utilizing defocusing metastables. Additional studies of model compounds suggest that the m/e 246 ion is very complex and is probably comprised of a number of structures. The mass spectra of the diphenylmethanols are significantly different from the other two groups. The hydroxyl group markedly affects the fragmentation process for these compounds; the characteristic peak is presumably the chlorobenzoyl ion and is probably precursor for other fragment ions. Mass spectral correlations of pesticidal compounds of similar structure are needed to obtain enough background to facilitate interpretation of the mass spectra of their metabolites. Furthermore, such studies make feasible the identification of characteristic product ions formed by rearrangement processes during ionization of organic molecules in the gas phase. This information can be a nucleus for correlating the other significant mass spectral data of an unknown compound. Intensive studies of carbamates,¹ organophosphorus² and bridged polycyclic chlorinated pesticidal³ compounds were invaluable in identifying metabolites of the aforementioned pesticides.^4,5,6 The compounds in this Work are chlorinated aromatic pesticidal compounds which consist of a diphenylemthane, a diphenylethylene, or a diphenylmethanol structure. The compounds p,?-DDE were briefly discussed by Jorg, Houriet and Spiteller.⁷ The compounds examined are listed in Table 1. Treatment of data. The mass spectra of the pesticides are presented as bar graphs in Figs 1 to 12 It a metastable peak is observed, the metastable transition is indicated by m^* on the figures and also by (m^*) when confirmed or identified using the defocusing technique.⁸ Since the relative abundances of the metastable peaks for these compounds are very small (<0.1%) on special effort was made to establish their presence unless they wre pertinent.     

Massenspektrometrische Untersuchung organischer Stickstoffverbindungen. XXVII—Intramolekulare Redoxreaktionn bei ionisierten ortho-substituierten Nitroaromaten

Collisional activation demonstrates that the stable ions from o-nitrobenzaldehydedimethylacetale possess the structure of ionized o-nitroso benzoic acid methyl ester. Contrary to previous conclusions it is demonstrated that the structure of the stable ions (m/e 135) from different precursors [i.e. o-nitrobenzyl alcohol o-nitrobenzyl cyanide and o-nitrobenzaldoxime is best represented by 2,1-benzisoxazoline-3-one. Ionized o-nitrosobenzaldehtde rearranged to 2,1-benzisoxazoline-3-one prior to collision induced decomposition, whereas 2-benzoxazolinone and 3-hydroxy-1,2-benzisoxazole do not rearrange within 10^?5 s.     

γ-Radiation-produced supported metal complex catalysts. 3. Phosphinated polypropylene supports

p-Styryldiphenylphosphine was grafted onto polypropylene by γ-radiation. However, olefinic phosphines in general do not readily undergo such grafting. Among the many other olefinic phosphines examined only 1-(4-diphenylphosphinophenyl)-prop-1-ene and vinyldiphenylphosphine were grafted successfully and both had low grafting yields. The optimum conditions for grafting involve low dose rates and high total doses of γ-radiation in dimethylsulfoxide as solvent. This grafting is sensitive to impurities and inhomogeneity in the product readily results, especially at high grafting yields. Oxygen must be rigorously excluded if oxidation of grafted phosphorus(III) to phosphorus (V) is to be avoided. Phosphine oxides can be reduced to phosphines when grafted to the polymer with trichlorosilane. Mass spectrometry has shown that more than one olefinic phosphine binds to a single site in the polymer. Solid-state, high-resolution ³¹P-NMR is a valuable technique for characterizing the grafted polymer. The preparation and characterization of the following hitherto unreported phosphines is described: In addition, the precursor halides none of which has been reported, were prepared and characterized.     

Anionic copolymerizations of acrylonitrile with β-propiolactone

Anionic copolymerizations of acrylonitrile (monomer 1) with β-propiolactone (monomer 2) and the structures of the resulting copolymers were studied. The copolymerization with sodium cyanide in N,N-dimethylformamide gave copolymers of the structure I containing acid anhydride linkage in the molecular chains, with the monomer reactivity ratios, r₁ = 1.20, r₂ = 0.00. The copolymerization with potassium hydroxide gave either copolymers of the structure II (r₁ = 0.00, r₂ = 3.64 at 30°C; r₁ = 0.00, r₂ = 5.00 at 40°C) in N,N-dimethylformamide or only β-propiolactone homopolymer in toluene.      

ESR evidence for main-chain scission produced by mechanical fracture of polymers at low temperature

ESR spectra have been observed from several polymers (polyethylene, polypropylene, polymethylmethacrylate, polytetrafluoroethylene, and polybutadiene) which were mechanically fractured in vacuum at 77°K. The spectra permit identification of the free radicals produced in chain scission. It has been demonstrated for the polymers of the type such as polypropylene and poly(methyl methacrylate), that the mechanical fracture produces two different scission radicals in pairs, namely, The results indicate convincingly that microscopic scission of polymer chains is caused by macroscopic destruction of polymeric material. The critical molecular size for mechanical rupture of polyethylene chains was experimentally determined to be a degree of polymerization between 70 and 100. This size agrees fairly well with the value predicted from a theoretical model.     

Synthesis and psychotropic properties of furyl- and thienyl-germatranes

Trihalogermyl-furans and -thiophenes were prepared by inserting germanium dibromide (GeBr₂) generated from the dibromogermane(II) dioxanate complex into the carbon-halogen bond of halo-furans and -thiophenes. Their ethanolysis and transesterification by triethanolamine yielded the germatranes which were subjected to psychotropic activity assays. The psychotropic properties of germatranes were found to depend on the type of the heterocycle and on the position of the germatrane moiety.     

The loss of CH3⋅ from some unsaturated dithioesters

The mechanism for the loss of CH₃? (and C₂H₅?) from the molecular ions of some unsaturated dithioesters of the type with n=0, 1, 2, has been studied. Based on first field free region metastable ion characteristics it is proposed that 1,3-dithiolium type product ions are generated. Deuterium labelling experiments indicated that the molecular ions of the 2-alkenyl alkanedithioates undergo a rearrangement prior to fragmentation which resembles the [3,3]sigmatropic rearrangement in solution chemistry.     

Structural changes in polymers of diethyl succinylsuccinate(1,4-diethoxycarbonyl-2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-cyclohexadiene) with diamines at high temperatures

The structural changes of the polymers having the following structures: at high temperatures were studied by the spectroscopic and thermal analysis. When the polymers were heated in air, they were oxidized predominantly to polymers having the structure: The rate of oxidation was fast and the reaction was almost completed within 2 hr at 180°C. In the case of polymer 3, an intramolecular cyclization to form acridone was detected as a minor reaction.     

Überlegungen zur Anlagerung von AlCl3 an (MClx · nAlCl3)-Komplexe

Ideas on the Addition of AlCl₃ to (MCl_x · nAlCl₃) Complexes It is postulated, that the addition of AlCl₃ to gaseous (MCl_x · nAlCl₃) complexes in which M is saturated in respect to its coordination, is (approximately) independent thermodynamically upon the nature (and charge) of M. Generally holds if M has the coordination number 6 This provides an useful test, when complicated systems have been measured. Literature data have been examined in this sense.
