Basic condensation of triphenylsilane. II. Kinetics in anhydrous isopropanol and influence of silanol

Condensation of triphenylsilane with isopropanol in presence of isopropoxide has been studied in anhydrous medium and the activation parameters have been measured. Dehydration of the medium has been obtained by means of a pre-reaction of triphenylsilane with the residual water in the solvent. In this medium the reaction is extremely slow, moreover, it is inhibited by silanol whose effect would lower the actual catalyst concentration.

Hexadiene formation during decomposition of 2-propanol over Ca?P?O catalysts

Hexadiene formation from 2-propanol was investigated in view of acid-base properties of Ca–P–O catalysts with the Ca/P atomic ratio varying from 1.5 to 5.0. The catalytic activity in hexadiene formation increased up to a maximum at Ca/P=2.0, having almost the same amount of weak acidic sites as weak basic sites, and decreased with futher increase in Ca/P ratio.

Adaption of thermal analysis for the study of water vapour adsorption isotherms

Water vapour adsorption processes and equilibria on adsorbents with polar surfaces can be well tested with an adsorption method combined with thermal analysis. The first step involves the comparison of isothermal desorption-adsorption curves and thermal curves; in the second step different equilibrium points of the adsorption isotherms are tested by means of thermal analysis.Some examples of building materials are presented to demonstrate the possibilities of the method. The types of adsorption isotherms for the samples were formally equal in all examples; only the complex method presented was able to reveal that formation of the equilibiria was induced by essentially different processes. Such processes are: physical adsorption depending on the structure of the adsorbent and the activity of the external active centres, chemisorption, chemical reaction in the solid/vapour system and chemical reaction in the water phase condensed in the capillaries.

Zusammenfassung Prozesse und Gleichgewichte der Wasserdampfadsorption an Adsorbenten mit polarer Oberfläche können gut mit einer mit thermischer Analyse kombinierten Adsorptionsmethode getestet werden. Der erste Schritt der Methode schließt den Vergleich der Desorptions-Adsorptionsisothermen und der thermischen Kurven in sich ein, im zweiten werden Gleichgewichtspunkte der Adsorptionsisothermen durch thermische Analyse getestet.Am Beispiel von einigen Baumaterialien werden die Möglichkeiten dieser Methode demonstriert. Die Adsorptionsisothermen waren formell in allen Fällen vom gleichen Typ und nur die vorgestellte komplexe Methode ergab, daß die Ausbildung des Gleichgewichtes durch grundsätzlich verschiedene Prozesse erfolgt. Solche Prozesse sind: von der Struktur des Adsorbenten und der Aktivität der aktiven Oberflächenzentren abhängige physikalische Adsorption Chemisorption, chemische Reaktion im Festkörper/Dampf-System und in der in Kapillaren kondensierten wässrigen Phase.

Temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) of hydrogen from a NiNaY zeolite after reduction

By TPD it could be shown that hydrogen desorption of a reduced NiY-zeolite stoichiometrically corresponds to the decrease of reduction degree. Therefore, the reason for hydrogen abstraction should be a partial reoxidation of Ni⁰.

IR and thermal studies on lithium oxomolybdenum(VI) oxalate

A new molybdenum(VI) complex, Li₂[Mo₂O₆(C₂O₄)] · 2 H₂O (LMO), was prepared and characterized by chemical analysis and IR spectral studies. Its thermal decomposition was studied by using TG and DTA techniques. LMO loses its two moles of water between 75 and 170° to give the anhydrous product, which decomposes in three stages between 240 and 380°. The first two stages occur in the temperature ranges 240–280° and 280–305°, to give intermediates with the tentative compositions Li₆[Mo₆O₁₉(C₂O₄)₂] and Li₆[Mo₆O₂₀(C₂O₄)], respectively. In the third stage, which extends up to 380°, Li₆[Mo₆O₂₀(C₂O₄)] decomposes to give the end-product, Li₂Mo₂O₇.

V2O5/TiO2 oxidation catalysts, III. Oxidation of CO on pure and sodium-doped systems

The activity of vanadia/titania catalysts in CO oxidation has been tested and found to be of the same order as that observed for unsupported vanadia; the simultaneous presence of vanadium-sodium compounds cancels the activity, probably because of the elimination of labile V=0 species at surface defects.

Thermoanalytical study of the solid state reaction between hydrated ZnO and Fe2O3

The hydrated oxides which are formed by the addition of ammonium bi-carbonate to a solution of Zn(NO₃)₂ and Fe(NO₃)₃, and drying the precipitates at 110° are zinc hydroxy carbonate(I) and iron(III) oxide gel(II), respectively. A new, derived derivative thermogravimetric curve along with conventional DTA and DTG methods have been used to study the reaction between (I) and (II) in two components system.A mixture of (I) and (II) subjected to grinding yields about 16% zinc ferrite precursor. In a sample prepared by coprecipitation from the mixed nitrate solution and drying at 110°, nearly 70% precursor is formed. The formation of zinc ferrite spinel reported to take place at low temperature in such cases appears to be related with the formation of the precursor, and reactivity and phase transformation temperature in Fe₂O₃.

Zusammenfassung Die durch Zugabe von Ammoniumbicarbonat zu einer Lösung von Zn(NO₃)₂ und Fe(NO₃)₃ und Trocknung des Niederschlags bei 110° gebildeten hydratisierten Oxide sind Zinkhydroxycarbonat (I) bzw. Eisen(III)oxidgel (II). Eine neue derivierte derivative thermogravimetrische Kurve wurde gemeinsam mit den konventionellen DTA und DTG Methoden zum Studium der Reaktion zwischen (I) und (II) in Zweikomponentensystemen eingesetzt.Das Gemisch von (I) und (II) ergibt beim Mahlen etwa 16% Zinkferrit »Prekursor«. In einer durch Mitfällung der gemischten Nitrate und Trocknung bei 110° erhaltenen Probe wurde fast 70 % »Prekursor« gebildet. Die Bildung von Zinkferritspinell, über dessen Entstehung in solchen Fällen bei niedrigen Temperaturen berichtet wird, scheint mit der Bildung des »Prekursors« verbunden zu sein, sowie mit der Reaktivität und der Phasenübergangstemperatur in Fe₂O₃.

Résumé Les oxydes hydratés formés lors de l'addition du bicarbonate d'ammonium à une solution de Zn(NO₃)₂ et de Fe(NO₃)₂ suivie du séchage du précipité à 110°, sont l'hydroxy-carbonate de zinc(I) et le gel de l'oxyde de fer(III) (II). On a utilisé une nouvelle technique de thermogravimétrie en dérivation, ainsi que les méthodes d'ATD et TGD conventionnelles, pour étudier la réaction entre (I) et (II) dans le système à deux composants.Un mélange de (I) et de (II), soumis au broyage, donne environ 16 p.c. de ferrite de zinc «précurseur», tandis qu'un échantillon préparé par coprécipitation à partir de la solution des nitrates mixtes et séchage à 110°, en donne environ 70 p.c.La formation du spinelle de ferrite de zinc décrite comme ayant lieu, dans des cas similaires, à des températures faibles, paraît être en rapport avec la formation du «précurseur» ainsi qu'avec la réactivité et la température de la transformation de phase de Fe₂O₃.

Synthesis and some properties of the methyl ester and N,N-diethylamide of 2-azido-5-phenyl-4-thiazolecarboxylic acid

The methyl ester and N,N-diethylamide of 2-azido-5-phenyl-4-thiazolecarboxylic acid were obtained by the reaction of the corresponding 4-substituted 2-hydrazino-5-phenylthiazole with NaNO₂ in acid media. IR and UV spectroscopy were used to show that the compounds synthesized retain azide form in both the crystalline state and in solution. The reaction of azides with dicarbonyl compounds gave derivatives of 2-[5-methyl-4-acetyl-or 2-[5-methyl-4-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl]-5-phenylthiazole-4-carboxylic acid.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 710–714, May, 1993.
