Triterpene glycosides ofHedera helix II. Determination of the structure of glycoside L-6d from common ivy leaves

A new hederagenin pentaoside — glycoside L-6d — has been isolated from the leaves of common ivyHedera helix L., fam. Araliaceae, and its structure has been determined by using various NMR-spectroscopic methods. Glycoside L-6d is hederagenin 3-O-[O--L-rhamnopyranosyl-(14)-O--D-glucopyranosyl-(16)-O--D-glucopyranosyl-(14)-O--L-rhamnopyranosyl-(12)--L-arabinopyranoside.Simferopol' State University.

测量了N-甲基苯胺、二苯胺与一些极性非质子溶剂（B）在CCl_4中的红外光谱，观察到这两种劳胺均与所研究的质子受体发生了氢键交叉缔合作用，并利用光谱数据计算了相应缔合物的形成常数和部分氢键能．结果表明，二苯胺是比N-甲基苯胺更强的质子供体，非质子溶剂的极性、空间效应和不同成键原子对交叉缔合物的稳定性均有一定的影响．还从分子结构对有关结果进行了讨论.     

Electrochemical and quantum chemical investigation of the CuI and CuII complexes with biquinolyl monomer and polymer ligands

Structural reorganization of polyamide (PA) and low-molecular-weight Cu^I and Cu^II complexes with biquinolyl (biQ) ligands during their mutual redox transformations in solution was studied using the electrochemical methods (cyclic voltammetry and preparative electrolysis) and quantum chemical DFT calculations. The influence of electronic factors and geometry distortions in the complexes on the ionization energy on going from Cu^I to Cu^II was evaluated in comparison. The catalytically active form of the [Cu^I(PA)L₂]BF₄ complex can be synthesized in situ from the stable tetrahedral complex [Cu^I(PA)₂]BF₄ by the series of successive redox transitions Cu^I → Cu^II → Cu^I accompanied by the loss of one biQ-containing macroligand.

Effect of epitaxial growth on the formation of the cobalt catalysts of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

Mixed oxides Co_xAl_yO₄ with different Al/Co ratios applied as supports for the catalysts of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis were prepared using the solid-state chemical reaction. The Co_xAl_yO₄ supports were prepared by modifying gibbsite with various cobalt salts (acetate, nitrate, and basic carbonate). The use of basic cobalt carbonate gives the Co(20%)/Co_xAl_yO₄ catalyst, which provides an increased yield of hydrocarbons C₅₊ and a decreased methane content compared to the impregnation catalyst Co(30%)/Al₂O₃. The introduction of small amounts of rhenium additives makes it possible to enhance the yield of hydrocarbons C₅₊ (179 g m⁻³) and also to increase the selectivity with respect to the C₅–C₁₈ fraction. The introduction of basic cobalt carbonate into the support, most likely, creates favorable conditions for the epitaxial growth of the precursor of the active phase. Dedicated to Academician G. A. Abakumov on the occasion of his 70th birthday. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 9, pp. 1856–1860, September, 2007.     

Fused polycyclic nitrogen-containing heterocycles

The condensation of methyl phenylchloropyruvate with 1-phenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)thiourea and its 3-and 4-picolyl homologs affords the corresponding 4-hydroxythiazolidines, which react with o-phenylenediamine to give one of two possible thiazolo[3,4-a]quinoxalines containing the pyridyl-or picolylimine substituents at position 1. 3a-Hydroxy-3-phenylimino-1-(2-pyridyl)thiazolo[3,4-a]quinoxalin-4-(3H,5H)-one, which is a covalent hydrate of the final product, was isolated as an intermediate in this reaction.     

Importance of supersuperexchange interactions in determining the dimensionality of magnetic properties. Determination of strongly interacting spin exchange paths in A(2)Cu(PO(4))(2) (A = Ba, Sr), ACuP(2)O(7) (Ba, Ca, Sr, Pb), CaCuGe(2)O(6), and Cu(2)UO(2)(PO(4))(2) on the basis of qualitative spin dimer analysis

The patterns of the Cu(2+) ion arrangements in the magnetic oxides A(2)Cu(PO(4))(2) (A = Ba, Sr), ACuP(2)O(7) (Ba, Ca, Sr, Pb), CaCuGe(2)O(6), and Cu(2)UO(2)(PO(4))(2) are quite different from the patterns of the strongly interacting spin exchange paths deduced from their magnetic properties. This apparently puzzling observation was explained by evaluating the strengths of the Cu-O-Cu superexchange and Cu-O...O-Cu supersuperexchange interactions of these oxides on the basis of qualitative spin dimer analysis. Supersuperexchange interactions are found to be crucial in determining the dimensionality of magnetic properties of these magnetic oxides.     

Electronic structure of A- and B-site doped lanthanum manganites: a combined X-ray spectroscopic study

The electronic properties of a series of colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) compounds, namely LaMnO3, La(1-x)Ba(x)(MnO3 (0.2 < or = x < or = 0.55), La(0.76)Ba(0.24)Mn(0.84)Co(0.16)O3, and La(0.76)Ba(0.24)Mn(0.78)Ni(0.22)O3, have been investigated in a detailed spectroscopic study. A combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) was used to reveal a detailed picture of the electronic structure in the presence of Ba, Co, and Ni doping in different concentrations. The results are compared with available theory. The valence band of La(1-x)()Ba(x)MnO3 (0 < or = x < or = 0.55) is dominated by La 5p, Mn 3d, and O 2p states, and strong hybridization between Mn 3d and O 2p states is present over the whole range of Ba concentrations. Co-doping at the Mn site leads to an increased occupancy of the e(g) states near the Fermi energy and an increase in the XPS valence band intensity between 0.5 and 5 eV, whereas the Ni-doped sample shows a lower density of occupied states near the Fermi energy. The Ni d states are located in a band spanning the energy range of 1.5-5 eV. XAS spectra indicate that the hole doping leads to mixed Mn 3d-O 2p states. Furthermore, RIXS at the Mn L edge has been used to probe d-d transitions and charge-transfer excitations in La(1-x)Ba(x)MnO3.
