Excess enthalpies for the systems acetonitrile-benzene-tetrachloromethane and acetonitrile-dichloromethane-tetrachloromethane at 298.15 K

Nagata, I., Tamura, K. and Tokuriki, S., 1982. Excess enthalpies for the systems acetonitrile-benzene-tetrachloromethane and acetonitrile-dichloromethane-tetrachloromethane at 298.15 K. Fluid Phase Equilibria, 8: 75-86Excess enthalpies at 298.15 K are reported for the binary mixtures acetonitrile-benzene, acetonitrile-tetrachloromethane, benzene-tetrachloromethane, acetonitrile-dichloromethane and dichloromethane-tetrachloromethane, and for the ternary mixtures acetonitrile-benzene-tetrachloromethane and acetonitrile-dichloromethane-tetrachloromethane. The results are analysed by means of an associated-solution theory which includes two types of self-association for acetonitrile, the formation of binary complexes CH₃CN·C₆H₆, CH₃CN·CH₂Cl₂ and C₆H₆·CCl₄, and a physical-contribution term expressed by the NRTL equation.     

A convenient method for the synthesis of α-phenylselenenyl carbonyl compounds

Treatment of ketones or aldehydes with selenium dioxide and diphenyl diselenide in the presence of acid catalyst afforded the corresponding α-phenylselenenyl carbonyl compounds in good yields.     

Semiclassical quantization with a quantum adiabatic phase

By applying the path integral method to two interacting systems, we derive a novel form of the semiclassical quantization rule including the topological phase which was recently found in certain quantum adiabatic processes.     

Characterization of polysiloxanes by high-resolution pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

Summary Thermal degradation of various polysiloxanes was studied by pyrolysis-gas chromatography with a fused silica capillary column. The peak identification was carried out by a directly coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry system. Generally, polysiloxanes were thermally degraded to cyclic oligomers along with a small amount of the compounds formed through elimination and/or recombination of the pendent substituents. Most of the degradation products including possible stereo- and structural isomers were completely separated in the high-resolution pyrograms which reflect the original stereoregularities and sequence distributions in the polysiloxane chains. Furthermore, relative peak intensities of the characteristic cyclic oligomers observed were successfully interpreted in terms of the compositions of some kinds of siloxane copolymers.

On a composition of cyclic 2-designs

A CB(v,k,λ) means a cyclic 2-design of block size k coincidence number λ, and with v points. In this paper, a recursive construction of a CB(v,k,λ) from two or three cyclic 2-designs is given.     

Selenocarboxamides as new reagents for stereospecific deoxygenation of epoxides under mild conditions

Selenocarboxamides have been found to be efficient reagents for converting epoxides into olefins stereospecifically in high yields under mild conditions.     

Synthesis of polymer‐iridium complex and its electroluminescent characteristics

A π‐conjugated polymer‐iridium complex containing the ligand in the main chain was synthesized by the Suzuki coupling method, and was applied to organic light‐emitting devices (OLEDs) as the emitter material. The polymer‐iridium complex showed red photoluminescence and electroluminescence with the maximum external quantum efficiency of ca. 3% by using 4,4′‐N,N′‐dicarbazole‐biphenyl and 2‐(4‐biphenylyl)‐5‐(4‐tert‐butyl‐phenyl)‐1,3,4‐oxadiazole blended into the polymer emitter layer.

A polynomial-time algorithm for a class of linear complementarity problems

Given ann × n matrixM and ann-dimensional vectorq, the problem of findingn-dimensional vectorsx andy satisfyingy = Mx + q, x 0,y 0,x _i y _i = 0 (i = 1, 2,,n) is known as a linear complementarity problem. Under the assumption thatM is positive semidefinite, this paper presents an algorithm that solves the problem in O(n ³ L) arithmetic operations by tracing the path of centers,{(x, y) S: x _i y _i = (i = 1, 2,,n) for some > 0} of the feasible regionS = {(x, y) 0:y = Mx + q}, whereL denotes the size of the input data of the problem.
