Telomerization of butadiene with diethylamine catalyzed by Ni, Pd and Pt allyl halide complexes

The telomerization of butadiene with diethylamine with the formation of the tertiary amine (C₂H₅)₂NC₈H₁₃ is catalyzed by Ni, Pd and Pt allyl halide complexes. Triphenylphosphine increases the activity of such catalysts. The rate of telomerization depends strongly on the [PPh₃]/[M] ratio (M=Pd and Pt) and increases in the series of metals: Ni3H₅PdCl)₂ exceeds that of (-C₃H₅)₂ Pd by more than two orders of magnitude.

Thermal decomposition kinetics of sodium metaperiodate

Aged and fresh samples of sodium metaperiodate are subjected to thermal decomposition studies in air by TG, DTG and DTA techniques. The kinetic parameters for their decomposition have been evaluated by weighted least squares method using equations of Coats-Redfern, Horowitz-Metzger and Freeman-Carroll. The results indicate that, within the limits of experimental error, ageing did not change the E^* values considerably.

Ab initio investigation of the electron structure in bis-Cu+ acetylene and vinylidene complexes

[Cu(-C₂H₂)₂]⁺, [Cu(-CCH₂)₂]⁺ and [Cu(-C₂H₂) (-CCH₂]⁺ complexes have been studied by the ab initio double-zeta basis set method. It has been established that all calculated compounds are stable to decomposition into two C₂H₂ molecules and Cu⁺ cation and into one C₂H₂ molecules and the respective monocomplex. Calculation results suggest the possibility of intramolecular acetylene-vinylidene rearrangement in the coordination sphere of Cu⁺.

Catalytic activity of honeycomb catalysts, I. The benzene-cyclohexane (de)hydrogenation reaction

Monolithic supported platinum catalysts were investigated with respect to their hydrogenation and dehydrogenation activity towards benzene and cyclohexane, respectively, between 250° and 350°C. Conversion of benzene to cyclohexane is optimal for the volume ratio H₂/Bz=5 at lower temperatures. In the cyclohexane dehydrogenation reaction, high temperatures, associated with lower N₂/Cy ratios, are beneficial. No byproducts were observed in the two reactions.

Calculation of the mass transfer coefficient with a chemical reaction in a gas-liquid system

A solution of the problem of mass transfer in a turbulent boundary layer has been obtained with a first-order chemical reaction occurring in the liquid phase. The dependence of the enhancement factor for absorption and of the mass transfer coefficient on the model parameters can be used for building up a hierarchic model of the gas-liquid reactor.

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.

Fossil age determination by thermal analysis

Subsequent to a comparative examination of recent bone material the author has recently completed the paleobiogeochemical evaluation of classical Quaternary and Pliocene terrestrial fossils of vertebrata from Hungary. A derivatograph (MOM) has been used to determine two thermoanalytical parameters which are closely associated with the passage of geological time: the total bound organic-matter content of the fossil and the fossilization cofficient.Derivatographic measurement of the organic matter in the bones is supplemented by fine-structure analysis of bone-tissue slides.Sample material of unknown age from several provenances was evaluated with the new dating method. The importance of the procedure is even greater in cases when only indefinite sporadic finds can be obtained from the sediments.

Die Bedeutung des Verfahrens ist in den Fällen noch grösser, wenn aus den Sedimenten nur unbestimmte sporadische Funde erhalten werden können.

Phase equilibria in the V2O5-Cr2O3 system

The phase equilibria in the total range of component concentrations in the V₂O₅-Cr₂O₃ system up to 1000 °C were studied by means of phase powder diffraction and DTA. Two compounds exist in the system: CrVO₄, melting incongruently at 860±5 °C, and Cr₂V₄O₁₃, which decomposes in the solid state at 640±5 °C to CrVO_4(s) and V₂O_5(s). At 645±5 °C, CrVO₄ and V₂O₅ form a eutectic mixture with the CrVO₄ content not exceeding 2% mol.

Zersetzungsmechanismus von Mg(OH)2 und Mg(OD)2

Zusammenfassung Man untersucht, unter welchen Bedingungen das Proton einer ionischen OH^–-Gruppe die Elektronenwolke des O^2–Ions verlassen kann, um mit einer benachbarten OH^–-Gruppe ein H₂O-Molekül zu bilden. Voraussetzung zum Tunneln ist in der benachbarten OH^–-Gruppe ein freies Akzeptorniveau auf gleicher Höhe. Wenn die beiden betrachteten OH^–-Gruppen kristallographisch äquivalent sind, ist die letztgenannte Bedingung nicht erfüllt, da das Akzeptorniveau höher liegt als das Donatorniveau. Durch Koplung mit den gegenphasigen OH-Knickschwingungen wird eine Verbreiterung der Niveaus und schließlich — ab einer kritischen Amplitude — eine Überlappung herbeigeführt, die das Tunneln ermöglicht. Die Protonenumlagerung beginnt an der Oberfläche, weil an einer freien Oberfläche die Amplituden der wirksamen OH-Knickschwingungen bei gleicher Temperatur größer sind als im Innern des Kristalls.

The conditions have been studied under which the proton of an ionic OH^– group can leave the electron cloud of the O^2– ion to form a H₂O molecule with a neighbouring OH^– group. The condition of tunnelling is the presence of a free acceptor level of similar height in the neighbouring OH^– group. If the two OH^– groups are equivalent crystallographically, this condition is not fulfilled since the acceptor level lies higher than the donor level. Coupling with the opposite-phase OH bending vibrations leads to a broadening of the levels and finally to an overlap, which renders the tunnelling possible. The proton transfer starts at the surface as at any given temperature the amplitude of the effective OH bending vibrations is larger at the surface than inside the crystal.

---

Résumé On recherche les conditions dans lesquelles le proton d'un groupe ionique OH^–peut quitter le nuage électronique de l'ion O^2– pour former une molécule d'eau avec un groupe OH^– voisin. La condition de l'effet tunnel est que le groupe OH^– voisin possède un même niveau libre accepteur. Cette condition n'est pas réalisée dans le cas de deux groupes OH^–voisins cristallographiquement équivalents puisque le niveau accepteur est plus haut que le niveau donneur. Le couplage des vibrations de déformation en opposition de phase des OH provoque un élargissement des niveaux et finalement — à partir d'une amplitude critique — un recouvrement qui permet l'effet tunnel. La transposition protonique commence en surface puisque pour une surface libre les amplitudes des vibrations de déformation actives des OH sont plus grandes qu'à l'intérieur du cristal.

Temperature programmed desorption of NH3 and H2O from NH4NaX and CoNH4NaX zeolites

A study has been made of temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of NH₃ and H₂O from samples of NH₄X and CoNH₄X zeolites of various degree of exchange. NH₃ TPD peaks could be explained by interaction of NH₃ with different Brönsted and Lewis acidic centers. Moreover a water peak at high temperatures allowed interpretations of the dehydroxylation, and by reason of the characteristic desorption temperatures a particular state of the Co²⁺ ions in the CoNH₄X zeolites is postulated.
