The chelate oxides of bis(trimethylantimony) (Me₃SbL¹)₂O (i = 1 or 2, L¹-acetylacetonate, L² - trifluoroacetylacetonate) and bis(triethylantimony) (Et₃SbL¹)₂O have been obtained in 79–85% yields by a one-step oxidation of trialkylantimony withtertbutylhydroperoxide in the presence of -diketones in benzene at 20 °C.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and characterization of a novel tantalum chalcogen-rich molecular cluster with square planar metal core

Black single crystals of Ta(4)Se(9)I(8) are obtained in a high yield by heating Ta, Se, and I(2) at 300 degrees C in 1:2.2:1.0 molar ratio. In the structure, the tantalum atoms form a square, with four Se(2) ligands bridging the Ta-Ta edges and one capping the square. Each Ta atom has two terminal iodine atoms. The compound is diamagnetic and has only two electrons for metal-metal bonding.     

Polarization observablesΣ,P y,T 1 in the reaction\vec \gamma d \to \vec pn at photon energies between 200 and 600 MeV and dibaryon resonances

The polarization observables Σ,P _y ,T ₁,P _y ^⊥ ,P _y ^∥ are derived in proton polarization measurements of the \(\vec \gamma d \to \vec pn\) reaction, using a linearly polarized photon beam of energies between 300 and 600 MeV for c.m.s. proton emission angles of 90° and 120°. A multipole analysis is performed in the framework of the gauge-invariant pole model considering theγN→πN amplitudes and the deuteron structure without dibaryon resonances and with different sets of isovector and isoscalar dibaryon resonances. It is shown that the inclusion of dibaryon resonances substantially improves agreement with experimental data.     

Destruction Kinetics of 2,4 Dichlorophenol Aqueous Solutions in an Atmospheric Pressure Dielectric Barrier Discharge in Oxygen

The processes of degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) aqueous solutions under the action of atmospheric pressure of DBD in oxygen were studied. The degradation of 2,4-DCP proceeds efficiently, the degree of decomposition reaching 100%. The degradation kinetics of 2,4-DCP obeys a formal first-order kinetic law on concentration of 2,4-DCP. The effective rate constants depend weakly on the experimental conditions and are equal to ~ 2 s^?1. Based on experimental data, the energy efficiency of 2,4-DCP decomposition was determined to be in the range of 0.039–0.173 molecules per 100 eV depending on the experimental conditions. The composition of the products was studied by gas chromatography, chromatography-mass spectrometry, UV/visible spectroscopy, fluorescent methods and some chemical methods. The main decomposition products present in the solution were found to be carboxylic acids, aldehydes and chloride ions, whereas carbon dioxide and molecular chlorine appear in the gas. The results obtained are compared with similar data from other advanced oxidation processes (AOP’s) methods.     

Diagnostics of the atmospheric-pressure plasma parameters using the method of near-field microwave sounding

A method of resonant near-field microwave probing is developed for contactless diagnostics of a high-pressure plasma. The efficiency of this method in measuring the parameters of the plasma of an rf capacitive discharge in argon under atmospheric pressure is demonstrated. The experimental results are compared with the data obtained using the independent method, the microwave radiation “cutoff,” and with theoretical estimates.     

Interaction of PH3 with acetaldehyde in aqueous media and chemistry of [HO(Me)CH]4PCl

The known phosphonium chloride [HO(Me)CH]₄PCl was prepared at ambient conditions from PH₃ and acetaldehyde in aqueous HCl, and characterized by elemental analysis and ¹H and ³¹{¹H} NMR spectroscopy. Attempts to obtain the tertiary phosphine [HO(Me)CH]₃P via reaction of [HO(Me)CH]₄PCl with Na₂SO₃ or Et₃N in aqueous media under Ar revealed that [HO(Me)CH]₃P is unstable and equilibrates with the secondary phosphine [HO(Me)CH]₂PH and acetaldehyde. A 1:4 reaction of [HO(Me)CH]₄PCl with NaHSO₃ at room temperature under Ar affords first the oxide [HO(Me)CH]₂P(O)H and then the phosphinic acid [HO(Me)CH]₂P(O)OH. A 1:1 reaction of [HO(Me)CH]₄PCl with Na₂S₂O₃ affords the sulfide [HO(Me)CH]₃PS. ³¹{¹H} and ¹H NMR data for all the (α-hydroxyethyl)phosphorus species are reported for the first time.

Study of K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e \gamma decay with ISTRA+ setup

Results of study of the $K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu \gamma $ decay at the ISTRA+ setup are presented. We observed 4476 events of this decay. The branching ratio is found to be $R = \frac{{Br(K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e \gamma )}}{{Br(K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e )}}$ = (1.81±0.03(stat.)±0.07(syst.)) × 10^?2 for E*_γ > 10 MeV and θ*_eγ > 10°. For comparison with the previous experiment the branching ratio with cuts E*_γ > 10 MeV, 0.6 < cos θ*_eγ < 0.9 is calculated: R = $\frac{{Br(K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e \gamma )}}{{Br(K^ - \to \pi ^0 e^ - \overline \nu _e )}}$ = (0.47±0.02(stat.) ± 0.03(syst.)) × 10^?2. For the cuts E*_γ > 30 MeV and θ*_eγ > 20°, used in most theoretical papers, Br = (3.06 ± 0.09(stat.) ± 0.14(syst.)) × 10^?4. For the asymmetry we get A _ξ = ?0.015 ± 0.021. At present it is the best estimate of this asymmetry.
