本文用一维及二维NMR方法研究了溶剂对15冠5(15C5)和苯并15冠5(B15C5)与Mg~(2+)配合的影响。结果表明,在丙酮,乙腈,硝基甲烷,四氢呋喃以及氯仿中,冠醚与Mg~(2+)形成稳定的1:1配合物,且配合态与自由态冠醚间的化学交换在NMR标尺上为慢交换过程;而在二甲亚砜,二甲基甲酰胺,二甲基乙酰胺和吡啶中,由于溶剂对Mg~(2+)的竞争作用而使冠醚未能与Mg~(2+)有效配合。     

Photochemical and thermal transformations of azomethine imines

The thermal and photochemical fragmentations of a few bisazoalkenes have been investigated. 2-Phenyl-4,5-disubstituted-1, 2,3-triazoles were obtained both in the thermolysis and photolysis of 1, 2-bisphenylazo-(4, 4′-dichloro) stilbene, 1, 2-bisphenylazo(4, 4′-dimethoxy)stilbene, 1, 2-bisphenylazocyclohexene and o-(phenylazo) phenyldiazocyanide. Both 2, 3-bisphenylazo-2-butene and 1, 2-bisphenylazoethylene failed to undergo either photolysis or thermolysis in the expected manner. However, 2, 3-bisphenylazo-2-butene underwent an acid-catalysed valence isomerisation to anhydro 1-phenylimino-2-phenyl-4, 5-dimethyl-1, 2, 3-trizolium hydroxide, which on photolysis gave 2-phenyl-4, 5-dimethyl-1, 2, 3-triazole. The same iminotriazolium intermediate gave a cycloadduct, 2, 6-diphenyl-3, 3a-dimethyl-4, 5-dicarbomethoxypyrazolino [2.3.c][1.2.3] triazole, on treatment with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, whereas treatment with carbon disulphide gave 2-phenyl-4, 5-dimethyl-1, 2, 3-triazole. Both photolysis and thermolysis of C-biphenylene-N^α(4-chlorophenyl)-N^β-cyanoazomethine imine gave 9-fluorenone-N- (4-chlorophenyl) anil. Photolysis of 1, 2-bisphenylazoacenaphthylene in methanol gave acenaphthenequinone monophenylhydrazone.     

A hierarchical family of three-dimensional potential energy surfaces for He-CO

A hierarchical family of five three-dimensional potential energy surfaces has been developed for the benchmark He-CO system. Four surfaces were obtained at the coupled cluster singles and doubles level of theory with a perturbational estimate of triple excitations, CCSD(T), and range in quality from the doubly augmented double-zeta basis set to the complete basis set (CBS) limit. The fifth corresponds to an approximate CCSDT/CBS surface (CCSD with iterative triples/CBS, denoted CBS+corr). The CBS limit results were obtained by pointwise basis set extrapolations of the individual counterpoise-corrected interaction energies. For each surface, over 1000 interaction energies were accurately interpolated using a reproducing kernel Hilbert space approach with an R-6+R-7 asymptotic form. In each case, both three-dimensional and effective two-dimensional surfaces were developed. In standard Jacobi coordinates, the final CBS+corr surface has a global minimum at rCO=2.1322a0,R=6.418a0, and gamma=70.84 degrees with a well depth of -22.34 cm-1. The other four surfaces have well depths ranging from -14.83 cm-1 [CCSD(T)/d-aug-cc-pVDZ] to -22.02 cm-1 [CCSD(T)/CBS]. For each of these surfaces the infrared spectrum has been accurately calculated and compared to experiment, as well as to previous theoretical and empirical surfaces. The final CBS+corr surface exhibits root-mean-square and maximum errors compared to experiment (4He) of just 0.03 and 0.04 cm-1, respectively, for all 42 transitions and is the most accurate ab initio surface to date for this system. Other quantities investigated include the interaction second virial coefficient, the integral cross sections, and thermal rate coefficients for rotational relaxation of CO by He, and rate coefficients for CO vibrational relaxation by He. All the observable quantities showed a smooth convergence with respect to the quality of the underlying interaction surface.     

Plane partitions IV: A conjecture of Mills—Robbins—Rumsey

In this paper we consider a problem posed by W Mills D Robbins and H Rumsey for a certain plane partition generating functionZ _n (x, m) The special caseZ _n (1,m) is the generating function that arose in the weak Macdonald conjecture Mills—Robbins—Rumsey conjectured thatZ _n (2,m) also possesses a nice finite product representation Their conjecture is proved as Theorem 1 The method of proof resembles that of the evaluation ofZ _n (1,m) given previously Many results for the₃ F ₂ hypergeometric function are required including Whipple's theorem, the Pfaff-Saalschutz summation and contiguous relations In passing we note that our Lemma 2 provides a new and simpler representation ofZ _n (2,m) as a determinant $$Z_n (2,m) = \det \left( {\delta _{ij} + \sum\limits_{i = 0}^l {\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {m + j + t} \\ t \\ \end{array} } \right)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {m + i} \\ {m + t} \\ \end{array} } \right)} } \right)_{0 \leqq ij \leqq n - 1} $$ Conceivably this new representation may provide new interpretations of the combinatorial significance ofZ _n (2,m) In the final analysis, one would like a combinatorial explanation ofZ _n (2,m) that would provide an algorithmic proof of the Mills Robbins—Rumsey conjecture     

Comparing ordered-entry queues with heterogeneous servers

We study a queueing system withm exponential servers with distinct service rates. Jobs arrive at the system following an arbitrary point process. Arrived jobs receive service at the first unoccupied server (if any) according to an entry order , which is a permutation of the integers 1, 2,...,m. The system has a finite buffer capacity. When the buffer limit is reached, arrivals will be blocked. Blocked jobs will either be lost or come back as New arrivals after a random travel time. We are concerned with the dynamic stochastic behavior of the system under different entry orders. A partial ordering is established among entry orders, and is shown to result in some quite strong orderings among the associated stochastic processes that reflect the congestion and the service characteristics of the system. The results developed here complement existing comparison results for queues with homogeneous servers, and can be applied to aid the design of conveyor and communication systems.     

Pt/Al2O3蜂窝状催化剂上NO选择性催化还原反应动力学研究

采用多次涂层和浸渍法制备了蜂窝状Pt/Al2O3催化剂，并在高空速和大气体流量条件下对无梯度循环式反应器和积分反应器上催化剂的活性进行了比较。同时采用循环式反应器对动力学数据进行了测定。根据Langmuir-Hinshelwood模型和实验结果，推测了NO-C3H6-O2体系的SCR反应机理，并导出了NO和C3H6反应速率的数学表达式。据此所计算的理论模拟值能够与实验值很好地吻合。实验结果表明，氧气浓度对NO和C3H6的反应速率有明显的影响，二者均随着氧浓度c (O2)的增加达到峰值，再增加氧气浓度时，C3H6的反应速率r(C3H6)保持不变，而NO反应速率r (NO)却下降，而且下降的程度随着温度的升高而加剧。同时，随着氧气浓度增加，r (NO)达到最大值时的温度亦随之下降。     

The synthesis and transition temperatures of some trans-4-alkylcyclohexylethyl-substituted 2,3-difluorobiphenyls

Terphenyls with two lateral ortho-fluoro-substituents have proved to be excellent host materials for ferroelectric (S_C*) mixtures. The compounds reported here are biphenyls with the same arrangement of lateral substituents but with a trans-4-alkylcyclohexylethyl moiety as one of the terminal substituents. Such three ring systems retain the ability to generate the S_C mesophase and have low melting points. Low temperature lithiation procedures were used to prepare phenylboronic acids, which were then used in palladium catalysed cross-coupling procedures to prepare the desired compounds. The effect of molecular structure on the mesophase types and thermal stabilities is discussed and comparisons are made with analogous terphenyls and biphenyls with open chain terminal substituents.     

Raman H-bond pair volume for water

The dispersion of the H-bond pair volume Delta V over the decoupled OD and coupled OH-stretching contours from HDO in H(2)O was determined from Raman intensities at pressures to 9700 bar at 301 K. The dispersion of Delta V was determined from -RT[partial differential ln(I(i)/I(REF))/ partial differential P](T) versus omega (in cm(-1)), where i refers to omega's over the stretching contours and I(REF) refers to the reference intensity at the isosbestic frequency. The maximum H-bond pair volume (defined for breakage) is 1.4+/-0.1 cm(3)/mol H-bond, which corresponds to the volume difference between a large dispersion maximum at 2,675 cm(-1) (near the OD stretch omega of HDO in dense supercritical water) and a large, broad minimum centered near 2,375 cm(-1) (just below the OD stretch omega of HDO in lda ice). The average DeltaV is 0.71+/-0.10 cm(3)/mol H-bond. Other minima near 2,625 cm(-1) (OD) and 3550 cm(-1) (OH) refers to bent H-bonds whose angles are approximately 150 deg. Isothermal pressurization of water lowers the molal volume by decreasing the concentration of long, weak H-bonds, and increasing the concentrations of bent H-bonds and short, strong, linear H-bonds. Such bending, shortening, and strengthening produces freezing to ice VI near 10 kbar at 301 K. The isobaric temperature derivative of the maximum H-bond volume is (partial differential Delta V/partial differential T)(P)< or =(2-5) x 10(-3) cm(3)/deg mol H-bond. The OH enthalpy dispersion curve for saturated NaBF(4) in water, yields a large maximum at 3,530-3,540 cm(-1) indicating that BF(4) (-) interacts preferentially with the dangling or "free" OH groups of water thus producing weak, strongly bent H-bonds having angles similar to those of the 3,550 cm(-1) high-pressure H-bond bending feature.
