Neuere Entwicklungen der flammenphotometrischen Analysenverfahren

Zusammenfassung Es wird gezeigt, daß man durch Einsatz von reduzierenden Flammen, durch Einsatz von Chemiluminescenzvorgängen in Flammen, durch Atomabsorptionsverfahren, durch Modulations- und Differentiations-operationen eine Reihe von weiteren Elementen mit den schnellen und spezifischen Flammenmethoden analytisch gut erfassen kann. Hierbei wird insbesondere auf die Bestimmung von Spurenelementen in Mikroproben mit möglichst einfachen Mitteln eingegangen.

Summary It is demonstrated that one can grasp analytically well a series of further elements with the quick and specific flame methods by use of chemiluminescence processes in flames, by atomic absorption methods, by operations of modulation and differentiation. Hereby the determination of trace elements is specifically treated in microprobes with the most possible simple means.

Exploring CH-activation pathways in bifunctional zirconocene/borane systems

The dimethylsilanediyl-bridged ansa-zirconocene dichloride 1, that contains a pendent allyl substituent at a Cp-ring, adds HB(C(6)F(5))(2) to the vinyl group to yield the bifunctional zirconocene/borane complex 2. Substituted benzimidazoles were added to the strongly electrophilic borane moiety as protective groups, which allowed subsequent chloride versus -CH(2)SiMe(3) exchange at zirconium to take place by treatment with the respective alkyllithium reagent. Alternatively, the introduction of active sigma-ligands at zirconium is carried out first, followed by the hydroboration reaction. This route was followed for the synthesis of the diphenyl-ansa-zirconocene/borane complex 12. Complex 12 reacts slowly in solution by intramolecular electrophilic attack of the borane at its adjacent Cp-ring, followed by deprotonation using a [Zr]-Ph group to yield the zwitterionic complex 14 featuring a borata-tetrahydroindenyl moiety as part of the ansa-metallocene framework. Complex 14 was characterized by X-ray diffraction. It adds PMe(3) at zirconium to yield 15. Thermolysis of 12 with excess PMe(3) leads to the formation of the (aryne)zirconocene complex 18, which is stabilized by PMe(3) coordination to zirconium and PMe(3) addition to boron. N-Methylbenzimidazole adds to the -B(C(6)F(5))(2) unit of 12 to give the 1:1 adduct 19. Thermolysis of 19 at 80 degrees C in benzene solution in the presence of one additional equivalent of N-methylbenzimidazole results in deprotonation of the substrate to yield the sigma-N-methylbenzimidazolyl zirconium complex 20 (as a mixture of two diastereoisomers). An additional N-methylbenzimidazole ligand is bonded to the B(C(6)F(5))(2) unit in this product.     

Time-resolved investigations of singlet oxygen luminescence in water, in phosphatidylcholine, and in aqueous suspensions of phosphatidylcholine or HT29 cells

Singlet oxygen was generated by energy transfer from the photoexcited sensitizer, Photofrin or 9-acetoxy-2,7,12,17-tetrakis-(beta-methoxyethyl)-porphycene (ATMPn), to molecular oxygen. Singlet oxygen was detected time-resolved by its luminescence at 1270 nm in an environment of increasing complexity, water (H2O), pure phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylcholine in water (lipid suspensions), and aqueous suspensions of living cells. In the case of the lipid suspensions, the sensitizers accumulated in the lipids, whereas the localizations in the cells are the membranes containing phosphatidylcholine. By use of Photofrin, the measured luminescence decay times of singlet oxygen were 3.5 +/- 0.5 micros in water, 14 +/- 2 micros in lipid, 9 +/- 2 micros in aqueous suspensions of lipid droplets, and 10 +/- 3 micros in aqueous suspensions of human colonic cancer cells (HT29). The decay time in cell suspensions was much longer than in water and was comparable to the value in suspensions of phosphatidylcholine. That luminescence signal might be attributed to singlet oxygen decaying in the lipid areas of cellular membranes. The measured luminescence decay times of singlet oxygen excited by ATMPn in pure lipid and lipid suspensions were the same within the experimental error as for Photofrin. In contrast to experiments with Photofrin, the decay time in aqueous suspension of HT29 cells was 6 +/- 2 micros when using ATMPn.     

Organometallic reactions of α-haloimines as a useful tool in organic synthesis

The reaction of organometallic reagents, e.g. alkyllithiums, cuprates and alkylcoppers, with α-haloimines gave selectively a variety of synthetically useful reactions, including coupling to 1,4-diimines, homologation, and production of heterocycles.     

Extraction du titane(IV) d'une phase aqueuse chlorhydrique par des mélanges de thénoyltrifluoroacétone—tri-n-butylphosphate et d'oxyde de tri-n-butylphosphine en solution dans le 1,2-dichloroethane

The extraction of titanium(IV) from hydrochloric acid solutions by thenoyltrifluoroacetone (HTTA) in the presence of tributylphosphate (TBP) or tri-n-butylphosphine oxide (TBPO) was studied in 1,2 dichloroethane. It is shown that there is a synergic effect because of the formation of a 1:1:1 HTTA—TBP (or TBPO)—Ti(IV) complex. The apparent stability constants of these complexes increase with the acidity of the aqueous phase.     

A stream tube model for miscible flow

A simple theoretical model is described for deriving a 1-dimensional equation for the spreading of a tracer in a steady flow at the field scale. The originality of the model is to use a stochastic appoach not in the 3-dimensional space but in the 1-D space of the stream tubes. The simplicity of calculation comes from the local relationship between permeability and velocity in a 1-D flow. The spreading of a tracer front is due to local variations in the cross-sectional area of the stream tubes, which induces randomness in travel time. The derived transport equation is averaged in the main flow direction. It differs from the standard dispersion equation. The roles of time and space variables are exchanged. This result can be explained by using the statistical theory of Continuous Time Random Walk instead of a standard Random Walk. However, the two equations are very close, since their solutions have the same first and second moments. Dispersivity is found to be equal to the product of the correlation length by the variance of the logarithm of permeability, a result similar to Gelhar's macrodispersion.Nomenclature A total cross-section area of the sample - C (resident) concentration of tracer - D,D ^* dispersion coefficient - F flux of tracer - G probability distribution function for permeability in the stream-tube segments - I tracer intensity (mass crossing a surface per unit time) - K permeability - L length of the medium - M number of stream tubes in the medium - N number of segments along a stream tube - P pressure - Q total flow rate in the sample - a length of an elementary stream-tube segment - g probability distribution function for permeability in the space - i, j indices, tube numbers - q flow rate in each stream tube - s variable cross-section area of a stream tube - t, t time - u front velocity - x space variable in the flow direction - small local variation in time - , _t longitudinal, transverse dispersivity - porosity of the porous medium - correlation length in the permeability field - viscosity of the fluid - time for filling an elementary stream tube segment - standard deviation of a stochastic variable - probability distribution of arrival times (Gaussian)     

On semianalytic subsets of rigid analytic varieties

We show some topological properties of semianalytic subsets of rigid analytic varieties: curve selection lemma, the closure of a semianalytic subsetS is semianalytic, for every quasi-compact morphismf. As an application we show that a morphismf: X Y of rigid analytic varieties is open at a pointx X if and only if SpecO _X,x SpecO _Y,f(x) is surjective.
