On the mechanism of alcohol insertion into the carbonyl group in the coordination sphere of Fe(III) tris-hexafluoroacetylacetonate

The kinetics of formation of hemiacetals in the Fe(III) coordination sphere resulting from the reaction of Fe(III) tris-hexafluoroacetylacetonate with methanol has been studied by the stopped-flow method. Two molecules of methanol and coordinated hexafluoroacetylacetonate anion (HFA^–) take part in the rate-determining step. The effect of the second molecule of alcohol can be attributed to catalysis of proton transfer from methanol to the HFA^– ligand through the chain of hydrogen bonds in 6-membered cyclic structures.

Carbon monoxide hydrocondensation on iron catalysts prepared from metal carbonyl compounds

The iron/alumina catalysts prepared by the impregnation of Fe(CO)₅ on the support have properties quite different from those of the conventional catalysts in the CO+H₂ reaction. However, the preparation procedure or the activation of the solid has a decisive effect on the activity, selectivity and stability.

Effect of the roughness factor on the surface oxidation of ruthenium catalysts

The surface oxidation of ruthenium catalysts with different roughness factor values has been analyzed. It is shown that electro formation of oxidized species on the exposed surface of ruthenium is strongly affected by the rougher characteristics of the surface. This effect has been explained through the addition and removal of protons to and from the oxidized species.

Kinetic parameters

The wide variations of calculated activation energies for solid decomposition suggests that there is no discrete activated state. Further, the statistical distribution on which the calculations are based is not a realistic concept. The lowest energy possible — and most frequently occurring — is the energy of the bulk crystal. Within the crystalline solid, vibrational interactions transfer energy so rapidly that a substantial difference from the average energy is not achievable within the crystal. The lack of a statistical distribution rules out the use of the Arrhenius equation unless it is independently verified for the particular system.

Zusammenfassung Die umfangsreichen Variationen der für die Festkörperzersetzung berechneten Aktivierungsenergien gestatten die Annahme, daß es keinen diskreten aktivierten Zustand gibt. Ferner stellt die den Berechnungen zu Grunde liegende statistische Verteilung kein reelles Konzept dar. Die niedrigstmögliche — und sehr häufig vorkommende — Energie ist die des Gesamtkristalls. Im kristallinen Festkörper übertragen die Vibrationswechselwirkungen die Energie so schnell, dass eine bedeutende Abweichung von der Durchschnittsenergie im Kristall nicht möglich ist. Da eine statistische Verteilung nicht vorhanden ist, kann die Arrhenius-Gleichung nicht angewandt werden, nur wenn sie für das spezielle System unabhängig bestätigt worden ist.

Résumé Les variations notables des énergies d'activation calculées pour la décomposition des corps solides laissent supposer qu'il n'y a pas d'état activé discret. En outre, la distribution statistique qui sert de base pour le calcul ne représente pas un concept réel. L'énergie la plus faible possible — rencontrée très fréquemment — est l'énergie du cristal entier. Dans le corps solide cristallin, les interactions des vibrations transmettent l'énergie d'une façon si rapide qu'à l'intérieur du cristal une déviation substantielle de l'énergie moyenne n'est pas possible. A moins que sa validité ne soit prouvée indépendamment pour le système particulier, l'équation d'Arrhenius ne peut pas être employée en l'absence d'une distribution statistique.

Properties of highly dispersed supported catalysts in hydrogenation reactions

Pt/sol and Pt/support catalysts with 6–15 Å Pt particles have been established to be low active in the hydrogenation of propargyl alcohol, butyn-l-ol-3 and dimethylethynylcarbinol. The specific catalytic activity significantly rises with increasing d_Pt above 15 Å and after the thermal treatment of highly dispersed catalysts in a hydrogen flow.

Non-isothermal kinetics of diffusion and its application to thermal analysis

Non-isothermal kinetics of diffusion are derived, extending the fundamental equation of diffusion to non-isothermal conditions, and the equation is solved for a few typical cases. From these theoretical considerations, two methods of analyzing thermoanalytical data of diffusion are proposed. One of the methods is applied to EGA curves of the volatilization of toluene from epoxy resin cured with ethylenediamine. The diffusion constants obtained as a function of temperature for two plate-specimens of different thicknesses at various heating rates are in good agreement with each other. The temperature dependence of the diffusion constant observed for a powdered sample is also in good agreement with those observed for the two plate-specimens.

Zusammenfassung Die nicht-isotherme Kinetik der Diffusion wird abgeleitet, indem die Grundgleichung der Diffusion auf nicht-isotherme Fälle erweitert und für einige typische Fälle gelöst wird. Von diesen theoretischen Erwägungen ausgehend werden zwei Methoden zur Analyse thermoanalytischer Diffusionsangaben vorgeschlagen. Eine der Methoden wird für die EGA-Kurven der Verflüchtigung von Toluol aus mit Ethyländiamin behandeltem Epoxyharz angewandt. Die an zwei Platten-Arten verschiedener Dicke bei verschiedenen Aufheizgeschwindigkeiten als Funktion der Temperatur erhaltenen Diffusionskonstanten stimmen gut überein. Die an einer pulverförmigen Probe beobachtete Temperaturabhängigkeit der Diffusionskonstante ist ebenfalls in guter Übereinstimmung mit der an den zwei Plattenkörpern erhaltenen.

Résumé On étudie la cinétique de diffusion en régime non isotherme, en étendant l'équation fondamentale de la diffusion aux cas non isothermes et l'on donne la solution de l'équation pour quelques cas typiques. A partir de ces considérations théoriques, on propose deux méthodes pour analyser les données thermoanalytiques de la diffusion. On applique l'une d'elles aux courbes AGE de stabilisation du toluène à partir des résines époxy traitées à l'éthylène diamine. Les constantes de diffusion obtenues en fonction de la température pour plusieurs vitesses d'échauffement sur deux échantillons en forme de plaquette sont en bon accord, de même que pour des échantillons pulvérulents.

Catalytic and physico-chemical properties of a doped MoO3/SiO2 catalyst used in propylene oxidation

Oxygen chamisorbed at low temperature on a doped MoO₃/SiO₂ catalyst has been used to evaluate the dispersity of molybdena. The time on stream seems to increase considerably the dispersity of active phase, also observed by Scanning Electron Microscopt (SEM). IR spectroscopy and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis have shown interaction between Te and Mo oxides. A weak complex of propylene on the surface, and carboxylate species on the oxidized surface have been detected.

Studies on catalytically active surface compounds, VIII. On the reaction of VCl4 with aerosil

The preparation and hydrolysis of silica supported vanadium catalysts have been investigated using VCl₄ as a paramagnetic probe. Chemical analysis shows the possibility of the VCl₄ molecule to react one, two, or three hydroxy groups of the surface. The type of reaction is influenced by the temperature of pretreatment of aerosil (TPA). ESR measurements show distortions of the tetrahedral coordination of the (SiO)_nVCl_4–n surface complex, which is strongest for the threefold attachment (n=3) of VCl₄ to the surface. Hydrolysis is accompanied by an increase of the coordination number and leads to highly mobile vanadium species.

Hydrogenation of CO2 on carbon-supported nickel and cobalt

The hydrogenation of CO₂ has been studied at atmospheric pressure on Co/C and Ni/C catalysts and the results are compared with those obtained on unsupported Co and Ni. Specific activites in the form of turnover frequencies for CO₂ hydrogenation decrease with increasing metal dispersity. Carbon supported Co and Ni present a smaller selectivity for methane than bulk metals. Higher specific activities and smaller activation energies are obtained on Co catalysts, compared with those determined for Ni catalysts.

Barium sulphate reduction with carbon

The reduction of BaSO₄ by carbon was investigated by means of isothermal thermogravimetric measurements. In combination with a high-temperature thermobalance, solid electrolyte cells were used (i) to purify the N₂ flow gas, and (ii) to measure the partial pressure of oxygen (COCO₂ ratio, respectively) in the outlet gases.Mass loss curves and in the outlet gases were recorded at 743–955 °C. The activation energy of the process was calculated from the isothermal TG curves. X-ray diffraction and SEM showed that the solid product in the whole temperature interval comprised only cubic BaS.

A kinetic study of the reaction of substituted benzenethiols with pertechnetate

The kinetics of the reaction of pertechnetate with a series of para-substituted benzenethiols have been studied. The reaction follows simple second order kinetics. The rate of reaction decreases as the substituent becomes more electron-withdrawing. The kinetic data suggest that the reaction involves nucleophilic attack of a benzenethiol molecule on technetium.
