New approach to processing of chlorine-containing wastes: Synthesis of 2,3-dichloropropene from 1,2,3-trichloropropane

Possibilities of utilization of by-products formed in manufacture of epichlorohydrin are considered. A promising way to utilize wastes from production of epichlorohydrin by synthesis of 2,3-dichloropropene from 1,2,3-trichloropropane is suggested.     

Reaction of tetrafluorosilane with tris(2-hydroxyethyl)amine, tris(2-trimethylsiloxyethyl)amine and bis(2-trimethylsiloxyethyl)amine and its N-methyl derivative. 1,1-difluoroquasisilatranes

Reaction of tetrafluorosilane with tris(2-hydroxyethyl)-and tris(2-trimethylsiloxyethyl)amine results in formation of 1-fluorosilatrane and fluorosilatrane in 75 and 53% yield, respectively. Reaction of tetrafluorosilane with bis(2-trimethylsiloxyethyl)amine and its N-methyl derivative leads to the hitherto unknown 1,1-difluoroquasisilatranes (N → Si) F₂Si(OCH₂CH₂)₂NR (R = H, Me) containing donor-acceptor bond N → Si and pentacoordinate silicon atom. The structure of the synthesized compounds was proved by ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ¹⁹F, ²⁹Si NMR and IR spectroscopy.     

Absorption spectra and the nature of complexes in the polyvinyl Alcohol-Nickel (II) chloride system

We have used electronic spectroscopy in the 160–1100 nm range to study the polyvinyl alcohol-nickel(II) chloride system. Based on the results obtained, we hypothesize formation of mixed-ligand complexes of the type [Ni(H₂O)_6-nCl_n]^2-n (n = 0, 1,..., 5) in the polyvinyl alcohol matrix. Transformation of the coordination sphere as the NiCl₂ concentration changes is apparent both in the region of the d-d transition bands (350–1100 nm) and in the region of the charge transfer bands (160–250 nm). We propose assigning the absorption bands separated by mathematical treatment to complexes of specific compositions. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii, Vol. 73, No. 1, pp. 136–138, January–February, 2006.     

Structure of N-(1-silatranylmethyl) and N-(trimethoxysilyl-methyl) derivatives of nitrogen-containing heterocycles according to data of NMR, IR, and UV spectroscopy

The ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, and ²⁹Si NMR, IR, and UV spectra of N-(1-silatranylmethyl) and N-(trimethoxysilylmethyl) derivatives of nitrogen heterocycles have been studied. The dependence and interrelation of the chemical shifts of ²⁹Si and ¹⁵N nuclei of the silatranyl group in the spectra of N-(1-silatranylmethyl)-substituted nitrogen heterocycles are determined by the nature of the heterocyclic system. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1857–1865, December, 2006.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of 4-acetoxy-5,6-dihydro-5,5-dinitro-2H-1,3-oxazineN-oxide

A novel heterocyclic compound, 4-acetoxy-5,6-dihydro-5,5-dinitro-2H-1,3-oxazineN-oxide, has been synthesized by the reaction of the dipotassium salt of 1,1,5,5-tetranitro-3-oxapentane with aqueous acetic acid. The synthesized compound has been studied by X-ray diffraction analysis.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 12, pp. 2207–2210, December, 1994.We would like to thank G.
