Studies of the soluble part of oxidised coals

Soluble products obtained from the oxidation of four types of coal, each characterised by different degree of coalification and different degree of sulphur content, are studied. The coals are oxidised with peracetic acid (PAA) and nitric acid. Analyses are performed by Atmospheric Pressure-Temperature Programmed Reduction (AP-TPR) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The soluble products contain much more sulphur than the insoluble products of oxidation. The products obtained from the reaction with HNO₃ contain higher amounts of inorganic sulphur compounds, while those obtained from the reaction with PAA are characterised by an increased content of organic sulphur species.     

Synthesis of novel tryptamine and β-carboline derivatives via palladium-catalyzed reaction of bromotryptamine with organic boronic acids

New tryptamine 5, 7 and β-carboline derivatives 3 were preparated by palladium-catalyzed coupling reaction of 5-bromotryptamine 1 with aryl boronic acids. Dedicated to Professor András Lipták on his 70^th birthday.

Assessment of the Fe-Sn-Zn phase diagram at 450°C

The Fe-Sn-Zn system is of interest because Sn is one element added to the Zn galvanizing bath to overcome the drawbacks due to the presence of Si in semi-killed steels. This work has been undertaken with the aim to understand the tin effect on the microstructure and the layers growth in batch galvanized coatings on low alloyed steels. Various experimental techniques such as metallography, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDX) are used in order to characterize the microstructure and the properties of such coatings elaborated in a zinc bath enriched with tin. Solidification phenomena and layers growth mechanisms during galvanization are explained by means of the ternary phase diagram Fe-Sn-Zn at 450°C. The Calphad method allows to obtain this phase diagram from the three optimized binary phase diagrams Fe-Sn, Fe-Zn and Sn-Zn and some experimental data inside the ternary Fe-Sn-Zn system.     

Poly[[aqua­tetra­imidazole­di‐μ‐phthalato‐dicopper(II)] monohydrate]

The title complex, {[Cu₂(C₈H₄O₄)₂(C₃H₄N₂)₄(H₂O)]·H₂O}_n, is a three‐dimensional polymer formed through bridging by phthalate dianions of two different Cu^II cations and a network of O(N)—H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The Cu—O and Cu—N inter­action distances are in the ranges 2.0020 (16)–2.4835 (17) and 1.968 (2)–1.9855 (19) Å, respectively. The structure is composed of alternating polymer chains parallel to the c axis, with a shortest Cu⋯Cu distance of 6.3000 (5) Å.     

Mixed Cationic‐nonionic Surfactants and pH Adjustment Route to Synthesize High‐quality MCM‐48

Using the mixture of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and p‐Octyl polyethylene glycol phenyl ether (OP‐10) as templates, siliceous MCM‐48 materials can be synthesized with low molar ratio of CTAB to silica (0.139:1) and low concentration of mixed surfactants (ca.5%) and within a wide range of OP‐10/CTAB ratio (0.08?0.25). The materials were characterized by X‐ray powder diffraction, N₂ adsorption/desorption isotherm, TEM, TG‐DSC and ²⁹Si MAS NMR. Measurements indicated that the use of mixed surfactants allowed better condensation and higher ordering of the cubic mesostructure; at the same time, some properties of these materials were sensitive to the OP‐10/CTAB ratio. It was also found that the reduced pH of the gel which had been crystallized for a certain time gave a highly reproducible synthesis with a high silica yield (about 95%). Furthermore, the reaction mechanism of the synthesis is discussed in detail.     

Si-VPI-5分子筛的多核固体NMR研究

磷酸铝类分子筛是近年来继Y型和ZSM七分子筛之后的第三代合成分子筛材料，其骨架由A10。和P0。四面体均匀交替地组成问．由于带负电行的A10。和带正电荷的PO。四面体数目相等，整个骨架呈电中性，所以这类分子筛本身无离子交换能力和催化活性．当用硅或某些金属离子（如Mg、Fe、Co、Zn等）对磷酸铝分子筛进行同晶取代，就会在骨架上造成电行不平衡，从而使这类分子筛具有一定的离子交换能力和酸性【习．因而对硅或金属离子在磷酸错类分子筛中取代机理的研究一直是人们感兴趣的问题问．Vpl－5是最近才合成出来的具有18圆环一维孔结构的…     

鲨鱼软骨质量的聚类分析法

用电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱法（ＩＣＰ－ＡＥＳ）测定了１８个鲨鱼软骨真品中１３个元素含量，对测定结果进行分析和变量聚类分析，抽提５个特征指标，并以谱系数聚类建立了鉴别鲨鱼软骨真伪的数学模式，用３个假冒产品和一个鲨鱼软骨胶囊对其进行检验，结果表明，用无机元素所建立的数学模式不仅能鉴别鲨鱼软骨的真伪，还能区分鲨鱼软骨的部分及不同部位的混合物。     

A re-statement of the Hohenberg–Kohn theorem and its extension to finite subspaces

Bearing in mind the insight into the Hohenberg–Kohn theorem for Coulomb systems provided recently by Kryachko (Int J Quantum Chem 103:818, 2005), we present a re-statement of this theorem through an elaboration on Lieb’s proof as well as an extension of this theorem to finite subspaces.

可逆反应的热静力学研究法

化学反应的焓变△H和平衡常数K的测定是热静力学研究的重要任务。通常用量热法可以此较准确地测定△H,但要从量热数据直接得到K则是在六十年代初才开始有所探索。在达方面,Drago和Christensen的工作是值得借鉴的。本文建立了一种中性配位体与一价金属离子络合反应体系的热静力学研究法,并用这种方法研究了二苯并18-冠-6与Na~+的络合反应,同时得到了反应的△H和平衡常数K。实验值与文献值符合。
