On the stereochemistry of the Horner—Emmons reaction between 3-functionally substituted 2-methyl-2-propenylphosphonates and aliphatic aldehydes

The reaction of diethyl 3-ethoxycarbonyl-2-methyl-2-propenylphosphonate (1a) with 3-methylbutanal (2) in heterogeneous MOH (solid)-benzene systems in the presence of 5–10 mol.% of benzyltriethylammonium chloride (BTEAC) gives the reaction product (3) with a higher, for M=K, or lower, for M=Li, ratio of 2E,4E and 2Z,4E-stereoisomers than that observed in the absence of BTEAC. Tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a catalyst of the reaction1a + 2 3 in the system KOH (solid)-wet benzene leads to a higher [2E,4E-3][2Z,4E-3] ratio than BTEAC; this ratio grows from 4456 without TBAB to 8020 at 100 mol.% of TBAB. In the latter case the stereochemical outcome of the reaction is similar to that obtained when tetrabutylammonium hydroxide in dry benzene is used as the deprotonating agent. The corresponding diisopropyl phosphonate (1b) and 3,7-dimethyloctanal (4a) interact in the system KOH (solid)-wet benzene-TBAB to give hydroprene (5) containing 88 % of the 2E,4E-isomer (5a) while in the case of 1 equiv. of [(n-Bu₄)N]OH in dry benzene the content of5a is 92 %. Diisopropyl 3-isopropoxycarbonyl-2-methyl-2-propenylphosphonate (1c) and 7-methoxy-3,7-dimethyloctanal (4b) under either of these conditions afford methoprene (6) containing 93 % of the 2E,4E-isomer.Part 6, see ref. 1.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Quantitative thermogravimetric analysis of binary mixtures

Thermogravimetric analysis is used to determine the amounts of Mg(OH)₂ and Mg(CH₃COO)₂in a mixture thereof. The application and suitability of different analysis methods are discussed. In the first method the mass losses in the temperature ranges as indicated by the decomposition of the pure compounds were used. Results obtained using these temperature ranges were unusable. The percentage mass losses due to the decomposition of Mg(OH)₂ and Mg(CH₃COO)₂ were then determined in a second method using the minimum in the derivative mass vs. temperature curves. The results obtained by this method compared well with the actual values for mixtures containing more than 15% magnesium acetate. The third method employed the total experimental mass loss of both decomposition reactions. The results obtained using this method compared well to the actual values, giving a R ² value of more than 0.99. This method of using the total mass losses can however only be used for binary mixtures that consist only of magnesium hydroxide and magnesium acetate.

Preparation and physical properties of flame retardant acrylic resin containing nano-sized aluminum hydroxide

Poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) shows high strength and transparency but is a flammable material. In this study, the surface of aluminum hydroxide was modified with methacrylate containing phosphoric acid moieties before dispersion in MMA, and organic-inorganic nano-hybrid materials were obtained by bulk polymerization in the presence of the surface-modified aluminum hydroxide. The resulting hybrid materials retained the high transparency of PMMA, with transparency values similar to that of pure PMMA. Moreover, the flame resistance of the hybrid materials was improved in comparison with that of pure PMMA, with depression of the horizontal burning rate becoming a maximum at an inorganic content of 3 wt%. These results suggest that the use of aluminum hydroxide surface-modified with phosphoric acid groups is an efficient method for obtaining good performance fire-resistant polymer materials.

Cr(VI)在Mg-Al型类水滑石上的吸附-脱附性研究I.吸附性

研究了Cr(VI)在带结构正电荷的Mg-Al型类水滑石(HTlc)上的吸附性能,考察了pH、无机电解质添加剂NaCl,NaNO3,Na2SO4和Na3PO4及有机添加剂EDTA和柠檬酸等因素的影响,并结合红外光谱和XRD实验结果探讨了吸附机理.研究表明,Mg-Al型HTlc对Cr(VI)有很强的吸附能力,其吸附动力学和吸附等温线分别符合准二级速率方程和Langmuir方程,饱和吸附量达105mg/g,有望成为一种优良的含Cr(VI)污水处理剂和Cr(VI)污染土壤修复剂.初始pH增大,吸附量降低.无机电解质和有机添加剂均能明显抑制Cr(VI)在HTlc上的吸附,其抑制吸附作用的强弱顺序分别为Na3PO4≥Na2SO4≥NaCl>>NaNO3和柠檬酸>EDTA.Cr(VI)在HTlc上的吸附可分为层间的离子交换吸附和外表面的吸附,其中外表面的吸附层在微观上又可分为因化学键合作用而形成的内络合层和因静电作用而形成的外络合层.

包覆Y(OH)3的球形Ni(OH)2的电化学性能

利用软嵌式粉末电极技术研究了Y(OH)3包覆对球形Ni(OH)2电化学性能的影响. 循环伏安结果表明, 在球形Ni(OH)2的氧化过程中存在Ni(Ⅲ)和Ni(Ⅳ)的两步氧化反应, 产生的Ni(Ⅳ)不稳定, 能分解产生NiOOH和氧气, 所以可将Ni(Ⅲ)→Ni(Ⅳ)看作副反应. Y(OH)3包覆层对Ni(OH)2氧化过程后期的副反应, 特别是Ni(Ⅲ)→Ni(Ⅳ)具有较好的抑制作用. 由包覆后的Ni(OH)2制成的模拟电池表现出很好的高温性能, 在1C充放电条件下, 当Y的摩尔分数为1.61%时, 在60 ℃时所对应的容量保持率可达到25 ℃的92.7％; 当Y的摩尔分数仅为0.55 %时, 在60 ℃时所对应的质量比容量也可达到241.3 mA·h/g.     

Preparation and characterization of trans-RhCl(CO)(TPPTS)2-intercalated layered double hydroxides

trans-RhCl(CO)(TPPTS)₂ (TPPTS=tris(m-sulfonatophenyl)phosphine) has been intercalated into Zn-Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) by the method of ion exchange. The structure, composition and thermal stability of the composite material have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared and ³¹P solid-state magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermogravimetry, and differential thermal analysis. The geometry of trans-RhCl(CO)(TPPTS)₂ was fully optimized using the PM3 semiempirical molecular orbital method, and a schematic model for the intercalated species has been proposed. The thermal stability of trans-RhCl(CO)(TPPTS)₂ is significantly enhanced by intercalation, which suggests that such materials may have prospective application as the basis of a supported catalyst system for the hydroformylation of higher olefins.     

Determination of trace elements in biological materials using tetramethylammonium hydroxide for sample preparation

A method to prepare milk powder, bovine liver and bovine muscle samples for analysis by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) is proposed. Samples are mixed with a small amount of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) and a stable and homogeneous slurry is produced in ca. 2 h with heating at 60–70 °C. After such sample preparation and dilution with water, trace elements are determined in certified reference materials. Pyrolysis and atomisation temperatures are optimised for each element, and several modifiers are investigated. External calibration is used for every analyte. Limits of detection (LODs), precision and accuracy are reported for Cd, Pb, Ni, Cr, Cu and Ag and compared with those obtained after conventional acid digestion. The main advantages of the proposed method are the simplicity of sample preparation and the longer lifetime of the graphite tube.
