The Dissociation Constants of 1,1'-Bis (pyridinium-4-aldoxime)trimethylene dibromide

The dissociation constants of the two oxime groups of 1,1-bis(pyridinium-4-aldoxime)trimethylene dibromide (TMB-4) were determined using spectrophotometric data. Two numerical methods were applied to treat the overlapping equilibria. The results obtained by both agreed with each other and their mean values at 25°C corrected for the ionic strength of 0.05moldm^–3 are pK_a1=7.49±0.11 and pK_a2=8.96±0.09. These values were discussed in terms of the pK_as of 1,1-bis(pyridinium-4-aldoxime)oxydimethylene dichloride (Toxogonin), a similar dioxime, which were derived by extrapolation of literature data.     

On the mechanism of water dissociation on the surface of Al2O3. Quantum-chemical calculations

Quantum-chemical calculations of clusters modelling adsorption complexes on the -Al₂O₃ surface have been used to evaluate two points of view on the mechanism of surface dissociation of water molecules on this oxide. The calculations show that this process involves interaction of water molecules with basic surface oxygen atoms rather than with Lewis acid sites.- , -Al₂O₃, H₂O . , .     

Kinetics and mechanism of the ligand substitution reaction of aquodiethylenetriaminepentaacetatoruthenate (III) in aqueous solution

The kinetics of ligand substitution reactions of [Ru(H₂dtpa) (H₂O)] (2) (H₂dtpa=diprotonated diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) were studied as a function of ligand (L) concentration, pH (2.5–8.0) and temperature (30–45 °C) at 0.2 M ionic strength. The equilibrium constants for the formation of mixed ligand complex [Ru^III(dtpa) (L)] (L=2-mercaptopyrimidine, cysteine) and the distribution of various species in solution in the pH range of 2.5–8.0 were computed from potentiometric results.

Oscillatory reactions of sakhalin oil oxidation

After light irradiation of oil films on water surface the autoxidation process has been found to be of nonsteady auto-oscillatory character, which can be observed in rate oscillations of O₂ absorption. Also recorded have been intensity oscillations of the EPR signal from the radical counter added into an oil sample. Complex dynamics of autoxidation can be due to an autocatalytic process involving the participation of peroxides accumulated in oil during photooxidation., , , , O₂. , , . , , .     

Chemisorptive characterization of Mn2+ cation effects on fused iron-catalysts

Volumetric and pulse chemisorptions of carbon monoxide (CO) have been developed to characterize effects of Mn²⁺ cations on an industrial doubly promoted fused iron catalyst. Addition of Mn²⁺ cations induces an increase in Fe dispersity, Fe electronic density and stability of the Mn²⁺-containing iron catalyst, where the same increase is observed by XPS and SEM. These effects explain why the activity of Mn²⁺-containing iron catalysts is improved. Mn²⁺ , . Mn²⁺ Fe, Fe , XPS SEM. . Mn²⁺ .

Investigations of 2,3′-biquinolyl. 9. Reaction of 1′,4′-dihydro-2,3′-biquinolyl with organolithium compounds

The 1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyl reacts with organolithium compounds to form the mixture of 4-R-1,4-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls and 2-R-1,2-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls in the ratio analogous to the conversion in the series of 2,3-biquinolyl. The utilization of the complex, the organolithium compound-TMEDA, in this process leads, after treatment of the reaction mixture with water, exclusively to 2-R-1,2-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls. Treatment with methyl iodide leads to 1-methyl-2-R-1,2-dihydro-2,3-biquinolyls.     

Intramolecular O→Te and N→Te coordination bonds in molecules of β-tellurocyclohexenals and their nitrogen analogs

The structures of -tellurocyclohexenals and their nitrogen analogs, viz., -methyltellurocyclohexenal (6), -(4-ethoxyphenyltelluro)cyclohexenal (7), di(2-formylcyclohexen-1-yl) telluride (8), -(4-ethoxyphenyltelluro)cyclohexenylidene(4"-methylaniline) (9), -bromotellurenylcyclohexenylidene(4"-methylaniline) (10), and -bromotellurenylcyclohexenal (4-methylbenzoyl)hydrazone (11), were studied by X-ray diffraction analysis. Compounds 6—11 have a Z configuration at the double bond, which provides the formation of intramolecular OTe or NTe coordination bonds. The bonds about the Te atom have a T-shaped configuration. There is only one of two possible OTe coordination bonds in dialdehyde 8 and, consequently, this compound belongs to the 10-Te-3-tellurane structural type. Hydrazone 11 possesses both NTe and OTe intramolecular coordination bonds. Taking into account these interactions, the coordination polyhedron of the tellurium atom can be considered as a trigonal bipyramid. The intramolecular OTe or NTe coordination bond lengths in compounds 6 (2.692 ), 7 (2.657 ), 8 (2.657 ), and 9 (2.690 ) are 0.9—1.0 smaller than the sums of the van der Waals radii of the corresponding atoms. These bond lengths in compounds 10 (2.170 ) and 11 (2.203 ) are almost equal to the standard covalent bond length.     

Temperature dependence of the initial quantum yield of oxygen photoadsorption on zinc oxide

The initial quantum yield of photoadsorption at =365–577 nm is shown to decrease with the temperature increase. Experimental data are partly accounted for by the temperature shift of the long wavelength edge of the fundamental absorption band that is of low activity in oxygen photoadsorption.

Synthesis of 3-(3′-Acetyl-5′-aroyl-1′,3′,4′-oxadiazolyl-2′)-chromones

A general method has been proposed for synthesizing 3-(3-acetyl-5-aroyl-1,3,4-oxadiazolyl-2)-chromones that has been based on conversion of 3-formylchromones to acylhydrazones and of theacylhydrazones into the heterocyclic chromones.     

Phase equilibrium diagram for the tin(II) iodide-copper(I) iodide system

The phase diagram of the SnI₂-CuI system was determined by the method of thermal analysis. No intermediates were found. It is suggested that limiting solid solutions of SnI₂ in-CuI,-CuI and-CuI, respectively, are formed. The eutectic point parameters (32.7 mol% CuI, 270.4 ±0.1 °C) and those of two invariant points (64.0 mol% CuI, 385.3 ±0.5 °C and 61.5 mol% CuI, 366.6±0.2 °C), corresponding to the equilibria+liquid and+liquid , respectively, were determined.Mittels Thermoanalyse wurde das Phasendiagramm SnI₂-CuI bestimmt.

Possibilities of applying the Piloyan method of determination of decomposition activation energies in the differential thermal analysis of polynitroaromatic compounds and their derivatives

The Piloyan activation energiesE, as well as the initial exotherm temperaturesT _D, are determined for sixN-monoalkyl- and fiveN,N-dialkyl-2,4,6-trinitroanilines. By comparison withR _f-factors, orR _M-functions of paper chromatography, the molecular-structural dependences ofE andT _D are studied for these compounds. Relationships are also found between the termE · T _D ^–1 and theR _M-functions. The effects are discussed of the introduction of the 6-nitro group into the TV-substituted 2,4-dinitroanilines, and of the introduction of the 4-nitro group into the 2,6-dinitro analogues, upon the thermal stabilities of the resulting 2,4,6-trinitroanilines.
