Reactivity of oxalates of La(III), Ba(II) and Cu(II) in ternary mixtures

Composites of cuprates of La(III) and Ba(II) were obtained by decomposing mixtures of oxalates of La(III), Ba(II) and Cu(II) prepared in 111 and 123 mol proportions respectively and sintering the oxide products at 1173 K. Reactions studied by TG, DTA and XRD techniques revealed the following features: (i) Decomposition of oxalates of La(III) and Ba(II) is drastically affected in mixtures. Decomposition temperature of organic part in the former (111) is shifted by 100 K while that of BaCO₃ in the case of latter (123) is shifted by 400 K towards lower temperature side. (ii) All exothermic peaks on DTA traces of both the mixtures are allotted to the decomposition of oxalates to Cu₂O, La₂O₂CO₃ and BaCO₃ phases while endothermic peaks around 863 and 1083 K are assigned for BaCuO₂ and La₂CuO₄ phases respectively in the case of former (111) and endothermic peaks at about 1068, 1136 and 1213 K are correlated with BaCuO₂, a composite of La₂O₃, La₂CuO₄ and La_0.5Ba_0.5CuO_3– (0.5) phases and LaBa₂Cu₃O_7– (0) phase respectively in the case of latter (123) and (iii) Lines of all cuprate compounds appear in XRD patterns of those samples preheated at temperatures 873 K. The following reaction is proposed in the case of 123 mixture: Authors are deeply thankful to the Authorities of Department of Atomic Energy (DAE), Goverment of India, for providing the funds for research project and to Professor A.

The effect of mechanical grinding on the formation and crystallinity changes of the inclusion complex of acetaminophen andβ-cyclodextrin

The effect of mechanical grinding on the physicochemical properties of acetaminophen in the presence of three additives,- or-cyclodextrin and microcrystalline cellulose, was studied by using TLC, powder X-ray diffraction analysis, infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The results indicate that the crystallinity of physical mixtures of acetaminophen and the described additives decreased with increased grinding time and formed an amorphous state when mixtures containing- or-cyclodextrin were ground with acetaminophen. We also found that the acetaminophen molecules could be included step-by-step into the cavity of-cyclodextrin molecules and formed an amorphous inclusion complex.-Cyclodextrin and microcrystalline cellulose did not form an inclusion complex with acetaminophen, but acted only to decrease the crystallinity of the ground mixtures. The mechanical grinding efficiency for acetaminophen was improved in the order of-cyclodextrin -cyclodextrin > microcrystalline cellulose.This paper is part XI of Drug Interaction in Pharmaceutical Formulations.

Studies of copper(II) chelates ofo-hydroxyacetophenone and its substituted derivatives in dioxane-water mixtures

Summary The interactions of Cu^II witho-hydroxyacetophenone (OHA) and its halogeno- and nitro-substituted derivatives were investigated potentiometrically in dioxane-water mixtures by the Calvin-Bjerrum titration technique at 25° C and ionic strength =0.1 M (NaClO₄). All the ligands form 11 and 12 chelates with Cu^II.The variations of pK with mole fraction of dioxane and 1/D were almost linear. Linearity was observed in the plots of log K₁/logK₂ versus pK, and the magnitudes of slopes led to the conclusion that -donation is: (i) strong in aqueous medium and decreases with the increase in dioxane content in 11 chelates, and (ii) weak and does not change with dioxane, in 12 chelates.

Chelation and radiolytic determination of lanthanides with 2,2′-oxybis-[ethyliminodi/acetic/ acid]

A quantitative study of the interaction of some lanthanide ions with 2,2-oxybis-[ethyliminodi /acetic/ acid] or 2,2-bis [aminoethyl]ether-tetraacetic acid /BAETA/ was carried out. Stability constants of the lanthanide chelates containing 11 ratio of metal to ligand were determined. A discussion of the variation of the metal chelates stability constants in the lanthanide series is given. Radiolysis of the formed chelates has also been investigated both in presence and in absence of oxygen. A radiolytic degradation mechanism is proposed and discussed.     

Copper(II)-disulphide interaction: a spectroscopic and electrochemical study of the interaction of copper(II) with an imidazole-containing disulphide

Summary The interaction of copper(II) salts with the imidazole-containing disulphide 5-(1,2,5-dithiazaepan-5-ylmethylene)-4-methyl-2-ethyl imidazole (MAMI) in MeOH have been investigated. The 11 Cu(ClO₄)₂MAMI system exhibited a single ligand field band at ca. 12200cm^-1, an intense shoulder at ca. 31500 cm^-1 and a less intense split feature at 24400 and 25300cm^-1 assignable to S() Cu^II and S() Cu^II charge transfer (CT) transitions, respectively. The e.p.r. parameters suggested the presence of a CuN₂SO chromophore, however; the 11 Cu(NO₃)₂MAMI system did not exhibit a S Cu^II CT band and the g value was comparatively high. An electrochemical study of the 11 Cu(ClO₄)₂MAMI system in MeOH revealed that the copper-disulphide interaction, though weaker, would confer a high redox potential as well as reversibility, similar to the copper-thioether interaction.

Quantitative electron-probe microanalysis of light elements: Determination ofa-Si∶C∶N∶O∶H insulating films

Amorphous SiCNOH films (1–3 m) are studied by EPMA after deposition of gold (1–5 nm) as a conductive coating. Its influence on thek-ratios (X-ray intensity relative to an uncoated standard) of silicon, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen is described as a linear function of the simultaneously determinedk-ratio of gold. Thek-ratios representing the uncoated specimen are obtained by extrapolation and, in combination with the PAP matrix correction model, quantitative EPMA can be performed with an analytical error of 2–5%, as it is demonstrated by samples of SiC, Si₃N₄ and SiO₂. No systematic shift of the concentrations is observed for layers ofa-SiCNOH determined at various electron energies of 5–12.5 keV. Hydrogen is calculated by difference and the concentrations prove to be a useful estimate in agreement with the results of chemical analysis. Si-K/Si-K spectra recorded on organo-silicon films and binary silicon compounds point out significant differences concerning the formation of Si-C, Si-N and Si-O chemical bonds.     

Thermochemistry of Carbonization of Polypyromellitimide

The mechanisms of thermal degradation processes in polypromellitimide films were investigated by mass-spectrometric thermal analysis and high-resolution NMR spectroscopy in the solid state. Both the structures of the solid residues of pyrolysis products of the PM polyimide and the process of carbonization proper up to 1200° were studied. It was established that the breaking of the C_ar-O-C_ar bond in the diamine moiety is not the primary act of degradation of the molecular structure of the polymer, as might be expected on the basis of the value of the bond energy. The process of intermolecular crosslinking following polymer degradation under high-temperature conditions is completed by the formation of a complex nitrogen-containing heterocyclic structure.

Zusammenfassung Der Mechanismus der in Polypyromellitfilmen ablaufenden thermischen Zersetzungsprozesse wurde durch massenspektrometrische thermische Analyse und hochauflösende Festkörper-NMR-Spektroskopie untersucht. Sowohl die Struktur des festen Rückstandes des Pyrolyseproduktes des PM-polyamids als auch der Prozeß der Verkokung bis 1200 °C wurden Untersucht. Es wurde festgestellt, daß das Aufbrechen der Bindung C _ar ,-O-C _ar im Diaminteil nicht der primäre Schritt der Zersetzun der molekularen Struktur des Polymers ist, wie nach dem Wert der Bindungsenergie zu erwarten wäre. Der auf die Hochtemperatur-Polymerzersetzung folgende Prozeß der intermolekularen Vernetzung endet mit der Bildung einer komplexen stickstoffhaltigen heterozyklischen Struktur.

Mischligandenderivate des 1:1-Th(IV)—DTPA-Chelates mit Milchsäure,Mandelsäure und o-Hydroxynaphthoesäuren

Potentiometric studies of the mixed ligand derivatives of 11-Th(IV)—DTPA chelate (whereDTPA=diethylene-triamine pentaacetic acid) with certain secondary ligands, such as lactic, mandelic and o-hydroxynaphthoic acids have been carried out. The pH-titrations of the reaction mixtures containing 111 molar ratio of metal ion toDTPA to secondary ligand have shown the formation of 111 ternary complexes at higher pH (8). The equilibrium constants of the resulting mixed complexes have been determined at 30±1°C and =0.1 (KNO₃) and the order of stability in terms of secondary ligands has been found to be o-hydroxy naphthoic acids>mandelic acid>lactic acid.

Kinetics of the thermal dehydration of variscite and specific surface area of the solid decomposition products

The surface properties of active solids resulting from decomposition of AlPO₄ · 2 H₂O by thermal treatment in vacuum and in air are studied in connection with the parameter governing the kinetics of the dehydration process. The values obtained for the activation energies of decomposition under isothermal conditions agree acceptably well with those computed from TG curves by the Freeman and Carroll method. Kinetic results, which are analysed in terms of the Mampel theory, strongly suggest that the activation energy of the nucleation process determines the rate of surface formation, and justify the observed fact that the specific surface areas of samples treated in vacuum are higher than those of samples treated in air.

Zusammenfassung Die Oberflächenbeschaffenheiten der aktiven Festkörper, welche bei der thermischen Behandlung im Vakuum oder in Luft als Zersetzungsprodukte von AlPO₄ · 2 H₂O entstehen, werden im Zusammenhang mit dem die Kinetik des Dehydratisierungsvorganges steuernden Parameter studiert. Die bei isothermen Bedingungen für die Aktivierungsenergien der Zersetzung erhaltenen Werte sind in befriedigender übereinstimmung mit denjenigen, welche mittels der Methode von Freeman und Carroll aus den TG-Kurven errechnet wurden. Die gemäß der Mampel-Theorie analysierten kinetischen Ergebnisse lassen darauf schließen, daß die Aktivierungsenergie der Nukleationsvorgänge die Geschwindigkeit der Oberflächen-Entstehung bedingt und rechtfertigen die Beobachtung, nach welcher die spezifische Oberfläche vakuumbehandelter Proben größer ist als die der luftbehandelten.

Résumé On étudie les propriétés de surface des solides actifs provenant de la décomposition de AlPO₄ · 2 H₂O par traitement sous vide et dans l'air et on les rapporte aux paramètres gouvernant la cinétique du processus de déshydratation. Les valeurs obtenues en conditions isothermes pour les énergies d'activation de la décomposition sont en accord acceptable avec celles calculées à partir des courbes TG par la méthode de Freeman et Carroll. Les résultats cinétiques qui sont analysés dans le sens de la théorie de Mampel font conclure que c'est l'énergie d'activation du processus de nucléation qui détermine la vitesse de la formation de la surface; ils justifient le fait observé que la surface spécifique des échantillons traités sous vide est plus grande que celle des échantillons traités dans l'air.

Synthesis to spectroscopy of titanium(IV) and zirconium(IV) chelates with biologically active ON donor systems

Summary A new class of 16 organotitanium(IV) and organozirconium(IV) chelates with biologically active monofunctional bidentate semicarbazones having the ON donor system were prepared by reacting 11 and 12 stoichiometric proportions of bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium(IV) dichloride and bis(cyclopentadienyl)zirconium(IV) dichloride with the appropriate ligand, prepared by condensing heterocyclic ketones and semicarbazide hydrochlorides in presence of NaOAc. Trigonal bipyramidal and octahedral structures have been suggested for the 11 and 12 (ML) complexes of titanium(IV) and zirconium(IV), respectively, on the basis of spectral analyses.     

Anion-exchange separation of rhodium and iridium by ECTEOLA-cellulose column

Summary The separation of Rh(III) and Ir(IV) in amounts of 20–5300 and 20–7700 g, respectively, and in ratios of RhIr=1100 to 1001 was achieved without cross-contamination by use of a 3 g ECTEOLA-cellulose column. Rh was first eluted with 40 ml of a 3 mol/l HCl-1% (w/v) NaClO₃ solution. Ir(IV) was desorbed with 60 ml of a 6 mol/l HCl-0.1% (w/v) NaClO₃ solution. Quantitative recoveries were obtained for each metal. The present method provides much better resolution than the other existing anion-exchange methods and can effectively be applied to the separations and recoveries of Rh and Ir(III or IV) present in a more extensive range of amounts and ratios.

Electrical conductivity and phase transition studies of some selected Congo red-metal complexes

The electrical properties of Congo Red dye (L) and its metal (M) complexes ofML molar ratios of 11 and 21, whereM=Cr(III), Fe(lII), Cu(II), Zn(II), Zr(IV), Th(IV) and UO₂(II), indicated semiconducting behaviour. The activation energies and electrical conductivities depend on the ionic charge of the metal chelates. The activation energies of 11 metal complexes are greater than those of 21 metal complexes. The conductivity data obtained are interpreted on the basis of the molecular structure of the Congo Red complexes. One phase transition was obtained during DTA study of Congo Red dye at 212°C. This phase transition may be due to the rotation of the two naphthalene rings and the N=N groups around the diphenyl group centre.

Décomposition thermique du sulfite de fer(II) anhydre

Résumé Sous azote ou sous vide, le sulfite ferreux anhydre se décompose vers 210° en magnétite, pyrite et dioxyde de soufre. Concurremment une réaction de dismutation intervient avec formation de FeSO₄, Fe₃O₄ et FeS₂. Lorsque la température atteint 320°, la pyrite et le sulfate réagissent ensemble pour donner Fe_1–xS, Fe₃O₄ et SO₂. Au-delà de 370° le sulfure ferreux non-stchiométrique commence à réagir à son tour avec le sulfate restant pour former de la magnetite et du dioxyde de soufre.
