Reactivity of allyl (o-halophenyl) ethers with organonickel (0) complexes

The reactivity of allyl (o-halophenyl) ethers with zerovalent nickel complexes, with triphenylphosphine and pyridine as ligands, leading to benzo[b]furan derivatives has been checked. Cyclization products were not isolated, but deallylation, substitution, reduction and rearrangement products were obtained in low to moderate yields. Mechanisms are proposed to explain the formation of these side products.

Co-adsorption studies of ethene with isotopically labelled water and hydrogen on copper/silica

The coadsorption of ethene with isotopically labelled water and hydrogen has been studied at temperatures between 423 and 623 K in a flow system. Ethene exchange has been shown to be independent of hydrogenation. When water is presnet, hydrogenation is poisoned but exchange can occur.

Experimental study of the initial stage of Li2SO4·H2O single crystal dehydration in vacuum

The initial stage of the Li₂SO₄·H₂O single crystal isothermal dehydration has been studied by means of quartz crystal microbalance. As found, weight loss in the initial process may be considered as H₂O molecule diffusion from a semiinfinite medium. The numerical values of the H₂O molecule diffusion in Li₂SO₄·H₂O have been calculated from the results obtained.

Coke deposition on naphtha reforming catalysts: I. Influence of the hydrocarbon feed

During hydrocarbons reactions over Pt/Al₂O₃ the catalyst is covered by coke. It is accepted that coke formation occurs on metal and acid sites. During normal heptane and methylcyclopentane reforming it was found that the nature and the rate of coke deposited on the catalyst surface was not same, depending on the structure of the hydrocarbon feed.

Thermal analysis of mercury(I) sulfate and mercury(II) sulfate

The thermal decomposition of mercury(I) and (II) sulfates has been investigated by thermogravimetry. The solid-state decomposition products have been characterized by infrared and Raman spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and an X-ray diffraction method. It is concluded that mercury(I) sulfate decomposes in two steps, initially forming a mixture of metallic mercury and mercury(II) sulfate — the latter subsequently decomposes without forming a stable intermediate. The stoichiometry of disproportionation of mercury(I) sulfate and the thermal stability range of mercury(I) and mercury(II) sulfates have been established.

Zusammenfassung Die thermische Zersetzung von Quecksilber(I) und (II)-sulfaten wurde durch Thermogravimetrie untersucht. Die Festphasen-Zersetzungsprodukte wurden durch Infrarot- und Ramanspektroskopie, Massenspektrometrie und Röntgendiffraktion charakterisiert. Es wurde gefolgert, dass Quecksilber(I)sulfat in zwei Stufen zersetzt wird, unter anfänglicher Bildung eines Gemisches von metallischem Quecksilber und Quecksilber(II)-sulfat, welches in der Folge ohne Bildung eines stabilen Zwischenproduktes zersetzt wird. Die Stöchiometrie der Disproportionierung des Quecksilber(I)sulfats und der Bereich der Thermostabilität der Quecksilber(I) und Quecksilber(II)sulfate wurden ermittelt.

Résumé La décomposition thermique des sulfates de mercure(I) et de mercure(II) a été suivie par TG. On a caractérisé les produits de la décomposition en phase solide par spectroscopies infrarouge et Raman, spectrométrie de masse et diffraction des rayons X. On en a conclu que le sulfate de mercure(I) se décompose en deux étapes, formant initialement un mélange de mercure métallique et de sulfate de mercure(II), ce dernier se décomposant ensuite sans formation d'un intermédiaire stable. Les proportions stoechiométriques de la dismutation du sulfate de mercure(I) et de l'intervalle de stabilité thermique des sulfates de mercure(I) et de mercure(II) ont été établis.

Structure and form of solids as ruling factors for their thermochemical reactivity

The role of structural parameters strongly influencing the course of heterogeneous solid-state reactions is established. Owing to the close relationship between the form and reactivity of solids, due emphasis must be given to detailed morphological studies. This allows the derivation of consistent correlations between the reaction mechanism on a microscopic scale and the observed macroscopic changes.Our present interests are focused on the generation of solids with tailor-made specific chemical and physical properties. Starting with suitable precursors and appropriately selected experimental conditions, in particular with reactive gases such as molecular hydrogen, the controlled preparation of, for example, catalytically active finely dispersed metals or alloys, and also binary and ternary metal oxide and sulfide phases is demonstrated.As indispensable tools, thermoanalytical techniques are applied in combination with mass spectrometry and gas chromatography.

Zusammenfassung Strukturelle Parameter spielen eine, große Rolle beim Ablauf heterogener Festkörperreaktionen. Wegen der engen Beziehungen zwischen Form und Reaktivität fester Stoffe sind detaillierte morphologische Untersuchungen besonders wichtig. Damit können eindeutige Zusammenhänge zwischen dem mikroskopischen Reaktionsmechanismus und den beobachteten makroskopischen Änderungen abgeleitet werden.Wir interessieren uns zur Zeit besonders für die Herstellung von Feststoffen mit massgeschneiderten spezifischen chemischen und physikalischen Eigenschaften. Ausgehend von geeigneten Vorprodukten und bei günstigen experimentellen Bedingungen, insbesondere beim Arbeiten mit reaktiven Gasen, wie molekularem Wasserstoff, wird die kontrollierte Herstellung z.B. von katalytisch aktiven Metallen oder Legierungen sowie binären und ternären Metalloxid- und -sulfidphasen möglich.Dabei haben sich thermoanalytische Methoden in Kombination mit Massenspektrometrie und Gaschromatographie als unverzichtbar erwiesen.

Effect of dentate number of anchored phosphine ligands on the composition and catalytic properties of their palladium complexes

Mono-, di- and triphosphine ligands anchored by a Si–C bond to the surface of silica have been synthesized. Complexes of Pd(II) and Pd(O) with these ligands have been obtained. On the basis of elemental analysis and UV spectroscopy, structures of the complexes formed are suggested. The catalytic properties of the above complexes in the selective hydrogenation of cyclopentadiene are compared.

Zum Thermischen Verhalten von Zitronensäure

Zusammenfassung Mit Hilfe der thermo-optischen Analyse wird gezeigt, daß die widersprüchlichen Angaben in der Literatur zum thermischen Verhalten von Zitronensäuremonohydrat und dem Zitronensäureanhydrit auf eine Überlagerung verschiedener thermischer Reaktionen (Schmelze, Zersetzung, Entmischung und Kristallisation), die mit unterschiedlicher Geschwindigkeit ablaufen, zurückzuführen sind. Die thermo-optische Methode ist besonders für die Aufklärung solch komplexer Reaktionsabläufe geeignet. Das Beispiel des thermischen Verhaltens der Zitronensäure zeigt modellhaft die Erscheinungen, die bei der thermischen Analyse technischer Prozesse, wie dem Einschmelzen von Rohstoffgemengen, zu erwarten sind.

By means of the thermomicroscopy was demonstrated that the discrepancy between the experimental DSC- and TG-data on the decomposition of citric acid in the literature can be explained in terms of superimposing reactions (melting, decomposition, immiscibility, and crystallization), which have different reaction rates. The thermomicroscopy is especially useful explaining such kind of reactions. The thermal behaviour of citric acid can be used as a model reaction in technology.

Effect of ligands on the hydrogenation selectivity in the presence of rhenium catalysts

It has been established that the catalytic activity of rhenium oxohalide complexes with phosphorus- or sulfur-containing ligands in hydroganation of C₆–C₁₀ olefins, nitrobenzene and p-nitrotoluene is primarily determined by the original ligand to rhenium ion bond. Chain length of olefins does not affect their hydrogenation rate.
