Electroconductivity changes of Na-modified TiO2 and Pt/TiO2 films

Electrolytic supporting of metallic sodium on the surface of TiO₂ and Pt/TiO₂ films is shown to change significantly the Fermi level of the semiconductor substrate already at small concentrations of sodium. The steady-state catalytic activity changes only at high concentrations of supported sodium, varying the chemical composition of the active phase. The contact process does not play any significant role in the catalytic process.

Isomerization and secondary metathesis of 2-butenes over a MoO3/Al2O3 catalyst

Transformation of cis- and trans-2-butene at 40°C was investigated over a MoO₃/A₂O₃ catalyst reduced with hydrogen and subjected to different pretreatments. Isomerization is accelerated by hydrogen preadsorbed either at low or high temperatures. The cometathesis of 2-butenes with the 1-butene intermediate, however, is enhanced only by hydrogen preadsorbed at low and suppressed by hydrogen adsorbed at high temperatures.

IR study of interaction of propylene at CoO-MgO and CoO-MoO3-MgO surfaces

IR spectra of propylene adsorbed in CoO-MgO and CoO-MgO-MoO₃ solid solutions show that a surface -complex with Co²⁺ ions is formed, strongly bonded in the former case and weakly in the latter. Thus, introduction of Mo strongly modifies the catalytic properties of Co²⁺ active centers. In the presence of oxygen, allylic species, aldehyde and carboxylate complexes appear.

Kinetics and mechanism of OsO4 catalyzed oxidation of chalcones by Ce4 in aqueous acetic sulfuric acid media

Kinetics of OsO₄ catalyzed oxidation of chalcones by Ce⁴⁺ has been studied in aqueous acetic-sulfuric acid medium in the temperature range 313 to 338 K. The order in [oxidant] is zero while the order with respect to [substrate] and [catalyst] are each fractional. The rate of the reaction decreased with increase in percentage of acetic acid while [H⁺] had practically no effect on the rate The rates of various substituted chalcones (with substituents in the phenyl. ring attached to the moiety) are in the orderp-CH₃>m-CH₃>H>p-Cl>m-Cl>m-NO₂>p-NO₂. A mechanism in which formation of a cyclic ester between chalcone and OsO₄ in a fast step followed by its decomposition in a rate-determining step is envisaged.

Isomerization of unsaturated compounds on Pd/Al2O3 in the presence of additives

Studies of the effect of zinc chloride and aluminium additives on the activity of a Pd/Al₂O₃ catalyst (5 wt.%Pd) in the isomerization of heptene-1, allylbenzene,p-allylphenol and 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol (eugenol) indicate that the rate and selectivity of isomerization depend on the sequence of addition of salts and reagent to the catalytic system. The simultaneous addition of ZnCl₂ or AlCl₃ with olefin, produces a 2–3 fold increase in the isomer yield compared to ethanol.

Differential scanning calorimetry study of reactions of phenyl glycidyl ether with phosphoric acid

The reactions of phenyl glycidyl ether (PGE) with phosphoric acid in three molar ratios have been studied by means of DSC alone. The results obtained from isothermal measurements are as follows:H=–91.0 kJ/mole PGE(1:1 molar ratio);H=–100.5 kj/mole PGE (1:2/3 molar ratio).The DSC curves obtained from dynamic experiments are multipeaked and giveHvalues higher than those obtained from isothermal measurements. These results can be explained by taking into account the acid concentration, the different reactivities of the hydrogens of the phosphoric acid and the possibility that secondary reactions occur.

Zusammenfassung Die Reaktion von Phenylglycidyläther (PGE) mit Phosphorsäure wurde bei drei verschiedenen molaren Verhältnissen allein mittels DSC untersucht. Isotherme Messungen ergaben folgende Werte:H=–91.0kJ/mol PGE (molares Verhältnis 1:1);H=–100.5 kJ/mol PGE (molares Verhältnis 3:2). Die bei dynamischen Experimenten erhaltenen DSC-Kurven weisen viele Peaks auf und ergebenH-Werte, die größer als die durch isotherme Messungen erhaltenen sind. Diese Ergebnisse können erklärt werden, wenn die Säurekonzentration, die unterschiedliche Reaktivität der Wasserstoffatome der Phosphorsäure und die Möglichkeit des Verlaufs sekundärer Reaktionen in Rechnung gestellt werden.

Studies on the thermal decomposition of N-2,4,6 tetranitro-N-methyl aniline

The kinetics of the initial stage of thermal decomposition of N-2,4,6 tetranitro-N-methyl aniline (tetryl) in condensed state has been investigated by high temperature infrared spectroscopy (IR) in conjunction with pyrolysis gas analysis and thermogravimetry (TG). The decomposition in KBr matrix in the temperature range of 131 to 145 °C shows rapid decrease in the N-NO₂ band intensity as compared to the C-NO₂ band. Decomposition products in the initial stage show mainly NO₂ gas and picric acid. The studies show that the initial stage of decomposition of tetryl occurs by the rupture of the N-NO₂ bond and the energy of activation for this process is 177 kJ/mol.
