Volumetric, Ultrasonic and Transport Properties of Binary Liquid Mixtures Containing Dimethyl Formamide at 303.15 K

Excess volumes （v^E）, ultrasonic velocities （u）, isentropic compressibility （△Ks） and viscosities （η） for the binary mixtures of dimethyl formamide （DMF） with 1,2-dichlorobenzene, 1,3-dichlorobenzene, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene, o-chlorotoluene, m-chlorotoluene, p-chlorotoluene, o-nitrotoluene and m-nitrotoluene at 303.15 K were studied. Excess volume data exhibit an inversion in sign for the mixtures of dimethyl formamide with 1,2- and 1,3-dichlorobenzenes and the property is completely positive over the entire composition range for the mixtures of dimethyl formamide with 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene, o-nitrotoluene and m-nitrotoluene. On the other hand, the quantity is negative for the mixtures of dimethyl formamide with chlorotoluenes. Isentropic compressibility （Ks） has been computed for the same systems from precise sound velocity and density data. Further, deviation of isentropic com- pressibility （△Ks） from ideal behavior was also calculated. AKs values are negative over the entire volume fraction range in all the binary mixtures. The experimental sound velocity data were analysed in terms of Free Length Theory （FLT） and Collision Factor Theory （CFT）. The viscosity data were analysed on the basis of corresponding state approach. The measured data were discussed on the basis of intermolecular interactions between unlike molecules.     

3-Ferrocenyl-3-(1-naphthyl)cyclopropene. Synthesis, structure, and chemical transformations

Crystalline 3-ferrocenyl-3-(1-naphthyl)cyclopropene was prepared by dehydrobromination ofZ- andE-2-bromo-1-ferrocenyl-1-(1-naphthyl)-cyclopropanes by Bu^tOK in DMSO. The resulting compound and the startingZ-monobromocyclopropane were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The obtained cyclopropene reacts with 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran to give a [4+2]-cycloadduct. The small ring opens upon treatment with HBF₄ etherate to afford isomericZ- andE-prop-1-enes and 1-ferrocenyl-3H-benzo[e]indene. Thermolysis of this cyclopropene results in the formation of 1-ferrocenyl-9bH-benzo[e]indene. In all cases, opening of the small ring is accompanied by exclusive alkylation of the naphthalene moiety.

The activation of amines of various structures in synergistic mixtures with quinones during the retardation of polymerization of methyl methacrylate

The retardation of the radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) mixed with quinones (Q) is accompanied by activation of amines of various structures (InH). In the absence of quinones, primary amines (-naphthylamine), secondary amines (diphenylamine,N-phenyl--naphthylamine, dimethyl-bis-p-(phenylaminophenoxy)silane,N,N'-diphenyl-P-phenylenediamine, andN-phenyl-p-aminophenol), and tertiary amines (N,N,N',N'- tetramethylethylenediamine andN,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine) exert no effect on the process. In the presence of 2,3,5,6-tetrachloroquinone orp-benzoquinone, amines inhibit polymerization (synergism). The consumption of amines is due to the abstraction of mobile H-atoms from their molecules. The retatdation by tertiary amines occurs only in the case when a mobile H atom is present at the-C atom of the amine; a mixture containingN,N,N',N'-tetraphenyl-p-phenylenediamine is ineffective. Analysis of various kinetic schemes shows that the activation of amine and its participation in the reaction with growing MMA radicals may occur either through the formation of active inhibitory species incorporated in the donor-acceptor complex, [InH · Q], or by inhibitory radicals, In^.and QH^., generated by the transfer of an H-atom from InH to Q.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Coulombic and ring-shaped potentials treated in a unified way via a nonbijective canonical transformation

This paper is concerned with the three-dimensional potentialV _q =² (2a ₀/r–q a ₀ ²/r ² sin² ) ₀ which comprises as particular cases the ring-shaped potential (q = 1) and the Coulomb potential (q = 0). The Schrödinger equation for the potentialV _q is transformed via a nonbijective canonical transformation, viz., the Kustaanheimo-Stiefel transformation, into a coupled pair of Schrödinger equations for two-dimensional harmonic oscillators with inverse-square potentials. As a consequence, the discrete spectrum for the potentialV _q is obtained in a straightforward way. A special attention is paid to the caseq = 0. In particular, the coupled pair of Schrödinger equations for two-dimensional harmonic oscillators is tackled in the situations where the spectrum for the potentialV ₀ is discrete, continuous, or reduced to the zero point. Finally, some group-theoretical questions about the potentialV _q are mentioned as well as a connection, via the Kustaanheimo-Stiefel and the Levi-Civita transformations, between the quantum-mechanical problems for the potentialV _q and the Sommerfeld and Kratzer potentials.

Synthese und Zerfall von Azoinitiatoren,I

Azoesters of the typePhR ¹R²CN=NCR ²R¹Ph(R ¹=alkyl,R ²=rest of carboxylic acids) were synthesized; their 10h-half-life-temperatures and energies of activation of the decomposition were determined. The decomposition of the azo compounds follows a law of first order. The variation of the substituentsR ¹ andR ² gives information about the effect on the decomposition of the azo compounds. The azoesters of acetic acid are outstanding by low temperatures of decomposition and are situated in the range of azoisobutyronitrile.

     

Interaction of iron carbonyls with Lewis bases

The interaction of iron carbonyls Fe _n (CO) _m (wheren = 1,m = 5;n = 2,m = 9;n = 3,m = 12) with anionic Lewis bases (H^–, F^–, Cl^–, Br^– , I^–, CN^–, SCN^–, N₃ ^–, MeSO₃ ^–, MeCO₂ ^–, CF₃CO₂ ^–, S₂ ^–, CO₃ ^2–, and SO₄ ^2–) passes through two-stage redox-disproportionation. The first stage is the formation of an iron carbonyl-base complex, [Fe _n (CO) _m–1C(O)L]^–, and the second is a single-electron reduction of this complex by another molecule of the initial iron carbonyl, giving rise to Fe(l) and Fe(–l) derivatives.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Application of the theory of design of experiments in examination and elimination of the matrix effect

Summary A method of experimental optimization of an analytical procedure aimed at elimination of the matrix effect is proposed which is based on the theory of design of experiments. The criterion functions Q are formulated, which are expressed by regression coefficients in the empirical mathematical model approximating the relationship between a quantity R and the concentrations of sample components. R denotes, for example, the measured signal (e.g. absorbance, emission intensity), the concentration of a component being determined read from the calibration graph, or the error of determination. The quantities Q depend, in general, on the conditions of analysis which can be expressed by the factors z ₁..., z _M (e.g., in AAS — observation height, gas flux, concentrations of the auxiliary substances in a sample, etc.). It is assumed that the extreme of a function Q corresponds to the optimum conditions of analysis. In this paper the relationship between a quantity Q and the factors z is approximated by the polynomial model. The regression coefficients in this model are estimated on the basis of the results of an experiment carried out according to the composite rotatable design. The extreme of the model is found mathematically. Various criterion functions Q are discussed. An example concerning determination of Mg and Ca in AlCl₃ reagent by AAS is presented.

Anwendung der Theorie der Versuchsplanung zur Untersuchung und Eliminierung des MatrixeffektsBestimmung von Mg and Ca in AlCl₃ mit Hilfe der AAS

Zusammenfassung Ein auf der Theorie der Versuchsplanung beruhendes Verfahren zur experimentellen Optimierung einer analytischen Methode mit dem Ziel der Eliminierung des Matrixeffekts wird beschrieben. Die Kriteriumfunktionen Q werden formuliert, die durch Regressionskoeffizienten in einem mathematischen Modell ausgedrückt werden, das der Beziehung zwischen einem Wert R und den Konzentrationen der Bestandteile angenähert ist. Hierbei bedeutet R z. B. das gemessene Signal (Extinktion, Emissionsintensität), den von der Eichkurve abgelesenen Konzentrationswert oder den Fehler der Bestimmung. Der Wert Q hängt im allgemeinen von den Analysenbedingungen ab, die durch die Faktoren z ₁... z _M (bei der AAS zum Beispiel die Beobachtungshöhe, der Gasstrom, die Konzentration von Hilfssubstanzen usw.) ausgedrückt werden können. Es wird angenommen, daß der Extremwert einer Funktion Q den optimalen Analysenbedingungen entspricht. Die Beziehung zwischen Q und den Faktoren z wird durch ein Polynommodell angenähert. Die Regressionskoeffizienten in diesem Modell werden aufgrund von Versuchsergebnissen bestimmt. Der Extremwert des Modells wird mathematisch berechnet. Verschiedene Kriteriumfunktionen Q werden diskutiert. Als Beispiel wird die Bestimmung von Mg und Ca in AlCl₃ mit Hilfe der AAS beschrieben.

     

Thermochemical study of the solvation of alkanes in mixtures of methanol with butyl alcohol isomers

A calorimetric method was applied at 25 °C to measure the enthalpies of dissolution of cyclohexane, heptane, and decane in the methanol-n-butanol mixed solvent and hexadecane in mixtures of methanol withn-, iso-, andtert-butyl alcohols. The standard enthalpies of dissolution of alkanes were determined. It was shown that the equation proposed in the literature for calculation of the enthalpies of dissolution of alkanes in mixtures with nonspecific intermolecular solvent-solvent interactions describes satisfactorily the enthalpies of dissolution of alkanes in mixtures of methanol withn- andiso-butyl alcohols. It was suggested that there is no preferential solvation of alkanes by one of the mixed solvent components in the MeOH−BuⁿOH and MeOH−BuⁱOH mixtures; in the MeOH−Bu^tOH system, the composition of alkane solvation shell differs slightly from the solvent composition in the bulk.

新型茼蒿素类似物的合成和抗虫构效关系研究

Twenty-one tonghaosu analogs were synthesized via hydroamination or selective reduction of the endocyclic double bond of the corresponding dienol spiroketals. Structures of all the new compounds were confirmed by ^1H NMR, IR, MS, HREIMS or elemental analysis. Their antifeedant activity against large white butterfly （Pieris brassicae L） and larvicidal activity toward mosquito （Culex quinquefasciatus Say） were examined. Some of them exhibited antifeeding activities comparable to or stronger than tonghaosu Z-1. Based on the activity data, the preliminary structure-activity relationship was also discussed, which might be instructive for finding out lead compounds with better bioactivities in the future.

Simulation of molecular and electronic structure of η5-π-complexes of fullereneI h -C 60 with half-sandwich XCp species (X=Si, Ge, Sn)

The molecular and electronic structure of hypothetical complexes of unsubstituted fullerene C₆₀ withI _h symmetry and its cyclopentadienyl type derivatives were simulated by the MNDO/PM3 method taking the C₆₀(XC[) _n molecules (n=1, 2, 10, 12; X=Si, Ge, Sn) and η⁵-C₆₀H₅XCp (X=Ge, Sn), respectively, as example. The complexes 12η⁵-πC₆₀(XCp)₁₂ and η⁵-πC₆₀XCp withI _h andC _5v symmetry, respectively, were found to be the most stable compounds. The energies of the X−C₆₀ bonds in these complexes are close to those of X−Cp bonds in bis(cyclopentadienyl) complexes XCp₂ and are substantially higher than the energies of similar bonds in complexes of unsubstituted fullerene η¹-πC₆₀(XCp)⁻ and η⁵-πC₆₀(XCp)⁺. Geometric parameters and spin densities in radicals C₆₀XCp and biradicals C₆₀(XCp)₂ and C₆₀H₁₀ were calculated. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Simulation of the structure of some silicon carbide clusters by the MNDO method

Simulations of the geometric and electronic structure of C₄₄, C₄₅, Si₄₅, C₄₀Si₅, and C₄₄Si clusters were performed by the MNDO method. The geometries of the filled clusters, calculated by the MM2 method, were used as initial approximations. It was found that the filled clusters C₄₅ and C₄₄Si are transformed into endohedral clusters X@C₄₄ (X-C or Si, respectively) after energy optimization. The highest occupied energy level of the HOMO of the filled tetrahedral cluster Si₄₅ ofT symmetry is triply degenerate and is only occupied by four electrons. The structure of Si₄₅ ²⁻ dianion ofT symmetry was calculated. Two filled structures for the C₄₀Si₅ cluster were found. The coordination numbers of the central Si atom in these structures are 4 and 3, respectively. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 54–56, January, 1997.     

Miscibility diagrams of random copolymer blend systems

The miscibility of copolymers A_xB_1?x and A_yB_1?y, derived from the same monomer pair (A, B) but differing in composition, was studied. The systems (A, B) were (S, MMA), (BMA, MMA), (S, BMA), and (CIS, BMA) (S: styrene, CIS: p-chlorostyrene, MMA: methylmethacrylate, BMA: n-butylmethacrylate). Miscibility diagrams were recorded, at low and high temperatures, using cast films and dry films. All blend systems feature hightemperature miscibility gaps. Unusual effects of the compositions x and y on miscibility in blends A_xB_1?x/A_yB_1?y were observed. The classical prediction that miscibility should depend only on the composition difference |x – y| usually is too simple. It appears necessary to consider dyad interactions.
