Comparison of the sulfurization of CoMoK/Al2O3 catalyst with H2S and CS2

Only H₂S consumption and H₂O formation was found in the sulfurization of CoMoK/Al₂O₃ water gas shift catalyst with H₂S/H₂, but CO₂ was formed first, then CH₄, H₂O and H₂S appeared in the later part of TPS with CS₂/H₂. Carbon deposition on the catalyst during the sulfurization with CS₂/H₂ caused a lower activity than the catalyst sulfurized with H₂S but could be removed in the run of WGS reaction.

Thermochemical studies on the systems ACl/CeCl3 (A=Na-Cs)

The pseudobinary systems ACl/CeCl₃ (A=Na-Cs) were reinvestigated by means of DTA. The following compounds were found and identified through their X-ray patterns (primarily detected compounds in italics):NaCe _1.67 Cl ₆; K₃CeCl₆, K₂CeCl₅,KCe _1.67 Cl ₆;Rb ₃ CeCl ₆, Rb₂CeCl₅,RbCe ₂ Cl ₇; Cs₃CeCl₆, Cs₂CeCl₅,CsCe ₂ Cl ₇. The compounds A₂CeCl₅ crystallize with the K₂PrCl₅ structure. The high-temperature modifications of the compounds A₃CeCl₆ have the cubic elpasolite structure. The hexagonal unit cell of KCe_1.67Cl₆ is related to the CeCl₃ structure: 0.33 Ce³⁺ are substituted by one K^s+. The structure of CsCe₂Cl₇ can be described with a hexagonal subcellZ=4,a=9.72 andc=14.94 Å; however, small superstructure reflexions reduce the symmetry.The thermodynamic functions for the reactionsnACl+CeCl₃=A _n CeCl _n+3(A=K, Rb) were determined by means of e.m.f. measurements.Measurements of the e.m.f.E vs. T yielded the Gibbs enthalpiesG ^r . The temperature-dependence was found to be linear.The most important result is the formation of the elpasolites (A₃CeCl₆) and ACe₂Cl₇.

Zusammenfassung Die pseudobinären Systeme ACl/CeCl₃ (A=Na-Cs) wurden mittels Differenzthermoanalyse (DTA) neu untersucht. Folgende Verbindungen wurden gefunden und durch ihre Röntgenbeugungsmuster charakterisiert (erstmalig nachgewiesene Verbindungen sind kursiv):NaCe _1.67 Cl ₆; K₃CeCl₆, K₂CeCl₅,KCe _1.67 Cl ₆;Rb ₃ CeCl ₆, Rb₂CeCl₅,RbCe ₂ Cl ₇; Cs₃CeCl₆, Cs₂CeCl₅,CsCe ₂ Cl ₇. Die Verbindungen A₂CeCl₅ kristallisieren im K₂PrCl₅-Typ. Die Hochtemperaturmodifikationen der Verbindungen A₃CeCl₆ liegen in der kubischen Elpasolith-Struktur vor. Die hexagonale Elementarzelle des KCe_1.67Cl₆ ist mit der CeCl₃-Struktur verwandt: 0,33 Ce³⁺ sind durch ein K⁺ ersetzt. Die Struktur des CsCe₂Cl₇ kann mit einer hexagonalen Pseudozelle beschrieben werden:a=9,72;c=14,94Å;Z=4; schwache Überstrukturreflexe reduzieren jedoch die Symmetrie. Die thermodynamischen Funktionen für die Reaktionen:n ACl + CeCl₃=A _n CeCl _n+3 (A=K, Rb) wurden durch EMK-Messungen bestimmt. Messungen der Abhängigkeit von e. m. f.E gegenT ergaben die Gibbs-EnthalpienG ^r . Es wurde eine lineare Temperaturabhängigkeit gefunden. Als wichtigstes Resultat ist die Bildung von Elpasoliten (A₃CeCl₆) und von Verbindungen (ACe₂Cl₇) anzusehen.

Complex polarizability as used to analyze dielectric relaxation measurements

The effect of representing dielectric properties in terms of the complex polarizability ^c = – i is examined. Loss curves ( and tan ) are shifted towards higher frequencies, revealing the existence of new relaxations and allowing the clarifications of ones already known. We have calculated the shift ratios (at maximum or tan )/ (at maximum or tan ) from the more conventional empirical equations representing the dielectric behavior. Some examples are given.     

Performance of a cobalt oxide catalyst in the oxidation of NH3 to NO

The cause for a fall in the conversion of NH₃ to NO within 73 hours from 97% to 78% with a cobalt oxide catalyst was investigated. Results show that sintering, change in valence and cation distribution in Co₃O₄ contribute to the decrease in activity. Incorporation of ThO₂ and K₂O improves the performance of the catalyst.

Crystallization,melting and spherulitic structure of Β-nucleated random propylene copolymers

The characteristics of crystallization, melting and spherulitic growth of a random propylene copolymer (PRC) containing small amount of ethylene were studied in the presence of a selective -nucleating agent (calcium pimelate). It was established that the products of isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization are very rich in -modification but have mixed polymorphic composition. The formation of -modification may be attributed to -transition on the surface of growing -spherulites resulting in -twin-spherulites. During melting of PRC of -modification, the characteristics observed with -nucleated propylene homopolymers, namely, a -recrystallization of recooled samples and separated melting of non-recooled samples (i.e. the melting memory effect), as well as a -recrystallization leading to a perfection of the structure within the -modification, are also demonstrated. The disturbance of regularity of the polymer chain highly reduces the tendency to -crystallization. In contrast to the observations with propylene homopolymers, the growth rate of -modification (G ) is higher than that of -modification (G ) and no critical crossover temperature can be found (T()=413 K) below whichG >G . The experimental results show that a partial disturbance of chain regularity by incorporation of comonomer units considerably reduces the tendency to -crystallization.This research was supported by the National Scientific Research Fund (OTKA), the author is grateful for it. Thanks are due to Professor Géza Bodor for his help in X-ray diffractometric investigations and to Ms. Tünde Lócska for her prudential technical assistance in the optical experiments.     

New chiral acyclic analogs of 2′-deoxynucleosides

Convenient methods for the synthesis of chiral 2,3-seco-2-deoxynucleosides were developed. An isopropylidene protective group was used to block the 3,5-hydroxy groups in 2,3-seco-uridine. Conversion of the hydroxymethyl group to a methyl group was accomplished by chlorination with a mixture of CCl₄ and Ph₃P with subsequent reduction with n-Bu₃SnH. 2,3-seco-2-Deoxyuridine was obtained after deacetonation. The (S) enantiomer was similarly synthesized starting from 1-(-D-arabinofuranosyl)uracil. 3-O-tert-Butyldimethylsilyl-5-O-(p-monomethoxytrityl)-2,3-seco-2-deoxyuridine, which has optically active centers at C₍₁₎ and C₍₄₎, was also synthesized.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 822–826, June, 1988.The authors thank Professor M.

Arenobufagin and gamabufotalin from the venom of the Central Asian green toadBufo viridis. Introduction,structural—functional features

Two bufodienolides have been isolated in the individual form from the Central Asian green toadBufo viridis for the first time. It has been established by₁H NMR, mass spectrometry, and x-ray structural analysis that these compounds are gamabufotalin (3, 11, 14-trihydroxy-5, 14ß-bufa-20,22-dienolide) and a crystalline modification of arenobufagin (3, 11, 14-trihydroxy-12-oxo-5, 14-bufa-20,22-dienolide). The biological activity of Bakagin — the total bufadienolides of the venom ofB. viridis, consisting predominantly of the compounds named — has been studied. The promising nature of a further study of Bakagin as a cardiotonic drug has been shown.Translated from Khimiya Prirodnykh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 260–268, March–April, 1995.

ESR studies of photoinduced centers on weakly reduced anatase

The paramagnetic centers of reduced anatase (g₁=1.999, g₂=1.984, g₃=1.979) and (g₁=2.046, g₂=2.008), assigned to the stabilization of photoinduced holes near anion vacancies, have been studied. For the reduced oxide a new type of O₂ photoadsorption at h >1 eV due to the generation of only electron surface centers has been discovered.

Effect of reduction temperature on the dehydrocyclizing activity of pure chromia and chromia containing K2O and CaO

The dehydrocyclization of n-heptane at 520–550°C over pure chromia and chromia with added CaO and K₂O (5 wt.% each) has been investigated. Introduction of an alkaline additive into Cr₂O₃ decreases markedly the yield of toluene. Raising of the reduction temperature of alkali-containing samples from 550 to 700°C results, in contrast to pure Cr₂O₃ and chromia-alumina systems, not in diminished, but in increased yields of toluene, the activity enhancement being particularly pronounced for the CaO-containing catalyst. These increased activities cannot be correlated either with variations in specific surface area or changes in the content of Cr⁶⁺ during subsequent oxidation, and presumably should be ascribed to more extensive catalyst reduction at higher temperatures.

Synthesis of (+)-drim-9(11)-en-8α-ol from sclareol

A drimane-type sesquiterpenoid, (+)-drim-9(11)-en-8-ol, was synthesized from sclareol in four steps. The ozonolysis product of sclareol diacetate reacts with Cu(OAc)₂·H₂O to give 8-acetoxy-14,15-bisnorlabdan-13-one. Photolysis of this compound followed by alkaline hydrolysis results in the target compound belonging to the normal steric series. (+)-Drim-9(11)-en-8-ol acetate is highly unstable and decomposes during chromatography on SiO₂.     

Synthesis of dimethyl sulfide in the presence of zeolites

In the presence of zeolites, dimethyl sulfide is produced either through CH₃OH interaction with H₂S or via CH₃SH decomposition. In accordance with their activities, in both reactions, zeolites arrange in the same sequence: HZSMHNaY>NaXNaY. Realization of the reaction CH₃OH+H₂S is more difficult compared to methanethiol decomposition.

Simultaneous TG,DTG, DTA and EGA technique for the determination of carbonate,sulphate, pyrite and organic material in minerals,soils and rocks

A simultaneous TG, DTG, DTA and EGA method was developed for the determination of carbonate, sulphate, pyrite and organic material in minerals. The method is based on the selective direct determination of SO₃ and CO₂ evolved from the heated sample, and on the indirect determination of H₂O. The thermogas-titrimetric adapter of the derivatograph collects the liberated gases (CO₂, SO₃, SO₂) quantitatively, absorbs them in water, and titrates them continuously and automatically with NaOH titrant. The changes in the volume of titrant consumed are recorded as a function of the temperature. In two parallel examinations, one titration is performed at pH 4, and the other at pH 9.3. The former measurement yields only the amount of SO₃ (SO₂), while the latter gives the joint amount of SO₃ (SO₂) and CO₂.

Zusammenfassung Autoren entwickelten eine Methode zur simultanen TG, DTG, DTA und EGA zur Bestimmung von Karbonaten, Sulfaten Pyrit und organischem Material in Mineralen. Die Methode basiert auf der selektiven direkten Bestimmung des beim Erhitzen der Probe entwickelten SO₃ bzw. CO₂ und der indirekten Bestimmung von Wasser. Die in Freiheit gesetzten Gase (CO₂, SO₃, SO₂) werden im gastitrimetrischen Adapter des Derivatographen gesammelt, in Wasser absorbiert und kontinuierlich und automatisch mit NaOH titriert. Das Volumen der verbrauchten Titrierflüssigkeit wird in Abhängigkeit von der Temperatur registriert. In zwei Parallelversuchen wird eine Titration bei pH 4, die andere bei pH 9.3 ausgeführt. Die erstere Messung ergibt nur die Menge an SO₃ (SO₂), während bei der letzteren die Gesamtmenge an SO₃ (SO₂) und CO₂ erhalten wird.
