Spectrophotometric study of the reaction of Co(II) and Ni(II) with nitroso-R-salt and α-nitroso-β-naphthol

The complexes of Co(II) and Ni(II) with nitroso-R-salt are studied by conductometric titration and spectrophotometric methods in buffer solutions of differentpH. The study proved the possible formation of (11), (12) and (13) complexes for Co(II) while Ni(II) forms (11) and (12) complexes (metal:ligand) only. The factors affecting complex formation are established and the formation constants of the complexes are evaluated. The ir spectra of the solid complexes with -nitroso--naphthol revealed that the ligand exhibits the nitrosophenol structure and that the reaction takes place through proton displacement from the OH-group.

Zusammenfassung Es wurden die Komplexe von Co(II) und Ni(II) mit Nitroso-R-Salz mittels konduktometrischer und spektrophotometrischer Methoden in Puffer-Lösungen mit verschiedenempH untersucht. Für Co(II) wurden (11)-, (12)- und (13)-Komplexe gefunden, während für Ni(II) lediglich (11)- und (12)-Komplexe (Metall:Ligand) festgestellt werden konnten. Die Faktoren, die die Komplexierung bestimmen, werden diskutiert und die Komplexbildungskonstanten wurden bestimmt. Die IR-Spektren der Komplexe mit -Nitroso--naphthol zeigen, daß der Ligand in der Nitrosophenol-Form vorliegt und daß die Reaktion über eine Protonenverschiebung von der OH-Gruppe verläuft.

     

Synthesis of α, α, ω-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl chlorophosphates by the reaction between α,α,ω-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl phosphites and sulfuryl chloride

Conclusions An efficient method for the synthesis of ,,-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl chlorophosphates is by reacting ,,-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl dichlorophosphites and bis-(,,-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl) phosphites with sulfuryl chloride. It has been found that in three-coordinated polyfluoroalkyl phosphites, the high electronegativity of the polyfluoroalkyl groups hinders cleavage of the latter on reaction with sulfuryl chloride, thereby facilitating the formation of oxidation products.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 146–149, January, 1988.     

Membrane transport of dicarboxylic and α-hydroxy carboxylic acids induced by α-amino phosphonates

New -amino phosphonates containing different alkyl and aryl substituents at the -carbon atom were synthesized in high yields by the Kabachnik—Fields and Pudovik reactions. These compounds were studied as carriers of several -hydroxy carboxylic and dicarboxylic acids through liquid impregnated membranes. These -amino phosphonates studied are capable of molecular recognition of oxalic acid among structurally similar -hydroxy carboxylic and dicarboxylic acids. The efficiency and selectivity of mass transfer of oxalic acid increase with an increase in the lipophilicity of the -amino phosphonate.

Study of the rotational isomerism about the C-O bond in six-membered secondary-tertiary diols

We have determined the spectroscopic characteristics, the dipole moments, and the Kerr constants of the stereoisomers of the secondary-tertiary diols of the cyclohexane and bicyclo [4.1.0]pentane series: 3,4-dihydroxy-3-carane (I), 3,4-dihydroxy-3-methylnorcarane (II), 3,4-dihydroxy-3-methylnorcarane (III), 4, 5-dihydroxy-3-methylcyclohexene (IV), 3,4-dihydroxy-3-carane (V), 3,4-dihydroxy-3-methylnorcarane (VI), 3, 4-dihydroxy-3-carane (VII), and 3,4-dihydroxy-4-methyl-3-carane (VIII). It was found that the cis diols are more polar than their trans isomers. It was shown by electrical and electrooptical methods that rotamers with a gauche orientation with respect to the tertiary C-O are stable relative to those containing the diol at the ordinary C-C bond of the ring.Deceased.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 619–625, March, 1991.     

Studies on the feasibility of production of57Co by alpha bombardment of Mn and Ni targets

We have studied the feasibility of producing⁵⁷Co (271.3 d) via the⁵⁵Mn(, 2n)⁵⁷Co reaction (⁵⁵Mn–100%). The thick target yield of⁵⁷Co in the 28 to 18 MeV energy region was measured as 3.87 Ci/Ah. However, the proximity and overlap of the excitation functions for (, n), (, 2n) and (, 3n) reactions on⁵⁵Mn are such that the production of pure⁵⁷Co in high yields free of⁵⁸Co (70.8 d) and⁵⁶Co (78.8 d) has not been feasible. We have also studied a new method for ancillary production of⁵⁷Co via the reactions⁵⁸Ni(, p)⁵⁷Co and during the course of producing⁶²Zn by⁶⁰Ni(, 2n)⁶²Zn reaction. In this case the yield of⁵⁷Co of reasonable purity has been up to 1 Ci/Ah.

Energy dependence of the epithermal neutron spectrum shape parameter α with respect to application of comparator-type NAA

The epithermal neutron spectrum shape parameter in nuclear reactors is explained from a theoretical point of view in terms of the neutron slowing down density function. The latter is approximated by Fermi's age theory. Values for are calculated for a simple approximation of a nuclear reactor: a disk shaped fission neutron source in an infinite graphite moderator. The model produces -values with the correct sign and magnitude, compared to experimental values from the literature, determined in a real reactor. It is shown that varies strongly with distance to the neutron source and less strongly with neutron energy. The inappropriateness of average -values, obtained from the slope of quasi-straight lines produced by log-log plots of E^– versus E, for the correction of non-ideal epithermal neutron activation is discussed. Conclusions are formulated concerning the impact of an energy dependent on comparator type NAA.     

1H-NMR Investigation of the Binding of 2-Methylnaphthalene to α-Cyclodextrin in D2O Solutions

As -cyclodextrin (-CD) was added to D₂Osolutions of 2-methylnaphthalene, its proton signals shifted to lower fieldsat low concentrations of -CD. At 2.0 × 10^-2 moldm^-3 of -CD, however, a reverse, higher-field shift wasobserved for the H-8 signal, indicating the formation of 1 : 1 and 2 : 1-CD–2-methylnaphthalene inclusion complexes. Intrinsic chemicalshift differences of all the protons in 2-methylnaphthalene have beenevaluated for both the 1 : 1 and the 2 : 1-CD–2-methylnaphthalene inclusion complexes. These intrinsicchemical shift differences suggest that the first -CD molecule has noselectivity in accommodating one end of uncomplexed 2-methylnaphthalene;-CD binds to a methyl group, as well as a naphthalene ring-end havingno methyl group, to form the 1 : 1 inclusion complex, resulting in theformation of two kinds of 1 : 1 complexes.     

Optimization of mobile phases for HPLC of cis-trans carotene isomers

Summary Various methanol-based, binary and ternary solvent systems were compared with respect to resolution of cis isomers of and -carotene by reversed-phase HPLC. A ternary system: acetonitrile-methanol-methylene chloride (751510), or a binary system: acetonitrilemethanol (9010 or 595) provided the best separation of -carotene and its four cis isomers, 9-cis, 13-cis, 15-cis and 13,15-di-cis--carotene. The elution order of 9-cis and 13-cis--carotene was dependent on the methanol concentration. Methanol-methylene chloride (991) resolved -carotene and its three cis isomers, 9-cis, 13-cis, and 15-cis--carotene. It also proved the best for simultaneous separation of cis isomers of and -carotene. Sample solvent can affect the separation efficiency of each isomer. The presence of cis isomers of and -carotene in fresh and cooked carrots was also determined.

Einwirkung von Schwefel und Ammoniak auf Propiophenon,n-Butyrophenon und i-Butyrophenon

Zusammenfassung Bei der Einwirkung von Schwefel und Ammoniak auf Propiophenon,n-Butyrophenon undi-Butyrophenon entstehen die entsprechenden Thiazoline-(3), deren saure Hydrolyse zu -Mercaptopropiophenon, -Mercapto-n-butyrophenon bzw. -Mercapto-i-butyrophenon führt. Die Dehydrierung dieser -Mercaptoketone mit Schwefel zu Di- bzw. Trisulfiden wird beschrieben. Die Kondensation der -Mercaptoketone mit Ammoniak und einer Oxokomponente führt zu neuen Thiazolinen-(3), von denen die in 2- und 5-Stellung monosubstituierten Vertreter sich mittels Schwefel zu Thiazolen dehydrieren lassen.

The interaction of sulfur and ammonia with propiophenone,n-butyrophenone andi-butyrophenone leads to the corresponding thiazolines-(3). On acid hydrolysis of the latter -mercaptopropiophenone, -mercapto-n-butyrophenone and -mercapto-i-butyrophenone respectively are formed. The dehydrogenation of these -mercaptoketones with sulfur to di- and trisulfides respectively is described. The condensation of the -mercaptoketones with ammonia and oxo-components yields new thiazolines-(3) of which the 2- and 5-monosubstituted compounds can be dehydrogenated to thiazols with elementary sulfur.

     

Indole derivatives. I.β-(3-indolyl) ketones

A number of -skatyl--substituted acetoacetic esters (ethyl, tert. -butyl, and benzyl) are prepared by treating gramine with sodium derivatives of -substituted acetoacetic esters. When ethyl -alkyl--skatylacetoacetates are heated with dilute alkali, they are split into indole and a substituted acetoacetic ester, while saponification with concentrated alcoholic alkali gives -substituted-(3-indolyl)propionic acids. 3-Skatyl-heptan-2-one can be obtained by pyrolysis of 3-skatyl-3-carbo-tert. -butoxyheptan-2-one, or by hydrogenolysis of 3-skatyl-3-carbobenzoxyheptan-2-one over a palladium catalyst. Alkylation of cycloheptanone and cyclohexanone enamines by gramine gives cyclic-(3-indolyl)ketones, viz., 2-skatylcyclopentanone and 2-skatylcyclohexanone.     

On the electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential of montmorillonite in non-aqueous media

Experimental results on the electrophoretic velocity and mobility of Ca-montmorillonite in 2-propanol are reported. The variation of the electrophoretic velocity with the externally applied electric field and the particle size range, at constant volume fraction and temperature, is considered. Given the difficulties for determining the types and concentrations of ions present in these liquid media, two methods are discussed for the estimation of the double layer thickness and hence the product, necessary for the determination of the zeta potential () of the interface. Although both methods of calculation yield different values of, the results for the zeta potential are very similar in the regions of and characteristic of our systems. The application to the experimental data of three theoretical relations between electrophoretic mobility and zeta potential is also discussed.
