The molar enthalpies of solution of 2-aminopyridine at various molalities were measured at T=298.15 K in double-distilled water by means of an isoperibol solution-reaction calorimeter. According to Pitzer’s theory, the molar enthalpy of solution of the title compound at infinite dilution was calculated to be D_solH_m^￥ = 14.34 kJ·mol^-1\Delta_{\mathrm{sol}}H_{\mathrm{m}}^{\infty} = 14.34~\mbox{kJ}\cdot\mbox{mol}^{-1}, and Pitzer’s ion interaction parameters b_MX^(0)L, b_MX^(1)L\beta_{\mathrm{MX}}^{(0)L}, \beta_{\mathrm{MX}}^{(1)L}, and C_MX^fLC_{\mathrm{MX}}^{\phi L} were obtained. Values of the relative apparent molar enthalpies ( ^φ L) and relative partial molar enthalpies of the compound ([`(L)]₂)\bar{L}_{2}) were derived from the experimental enthalpies of solution of the compound. The standard molar enthalpy of formation of the cation C₅H₇N₂ ⁺\mathrm{C}_{5}\mathrm{H}_{7}\mathrm{N}_{2}^{ +} in aqueous solution was calculated to be D_fH_m^o(C₅H₇N₂⁺,aq)=-(2.096±0.801) kJ·mol^-1\Delta_{\mathrm{f}}H_{\mathrm{m}}^{\mathrm{o}}(\mathrm{C}_{5}\mathrm{H}_{7}\mathrm{N}_{2}^{+},\mbox{aq})=-(2.096\pm 0.801)~\mbox{kJ}\cdot\mbox{mol}^{-1}.

The enthalpy change of formation of the reaction of hydrous dysprosium chloride with ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (APDC) and 1,10-phenanthroline (o-phen?H₂O) in absolute ethanol at 298.15 K has been determined as (-16.12 ± 0.05) kJ?mol^-1 by a microcalormeter.

The values of the enthalpy change of formation both in liquid-phase and solid-phase reaction indicated that the complex could only be synthesized in liquid-phase reaction.

Synthesis of nanocrystalline ZnO by the thermal decomposition of [Zn(H<Subscript>2</Subscript>O)(O<Subscript>2</Subscript>C<Subscript>5</Subscript>H<Subscript>7</Subscript>)<Subscript>2</Subscript>] in isoamyl alcohol

It was studied how the conditions of heat treatment of a [Zn(H₂O)(O₂C₅H₇)₂] solution in isoamyl alcohol at 120–140°C for 2–60 min affect the precursor decomposition mechanism and the characteristics of the obtained nanocrystalline zinc oxide. In all the cases, the product was a crystalline substance with the wurtzite structure and a size of crystallites of 14–18 nm, which was independent of the synthesis conditions. The thermal behavior and microstructure of the separated and dried nanostructured ZnO powder were investigated. It was determined how the duration and temperature of the heat treatment of the precursor solution affects the microstructure of ZnO coatings dip-coated onto glass substrates using dispersions produced at 120 and 140°C. The nanosized ZnO application procedure was shown to be promising for creating a gas-sensing layer of chemical gas sensors for detecting 1% H₂ (\(R_0 /R_{H_2 } \) was 58 ± 2 at an operating temperature of 300°C) and 4 ppm NO₂ (\(R_{NO_2 } /R_0\) were 15 ± 1 and 1.9 ± 0.1 at operating temperatures of 200 and 300°C, respectively).     

Electronic spectra of C<Subscript>6</Subscript>H<Superscript>+</Superscript> and C<Subscript>6</Subscript>H<Stack><Subscript>3</Subscript><Superscript>+</Superscript></Stack> in the gas phase

Measurement of the ³Π-³Π transition of C₆H⁺ in the gas phase near 19486 cm⁻¹ is reported. The experiment was carried out with a supersonic slit-jet expansion discharge using cavity ringdown absorption spectroscopy. Partly resolved P lines and observation of band heads permitted a rotational contour fit. Spectroscopic constants in the ground and excited-state were determined. The density of ions being sampled is merely 2×10⁸ cm⁻³. Broadening of the spectral lines indicates the excited-state lifetime to be ≈100 ps. The electronic transition of HC₆H₂⁺ at 26402 cm⁻¹ assumed to be ¹A₁-X¹A₁ in C_2v symmetry could not be rotationally resolved.

Structure of heteroassociates formed in the HF-(C<Subscript>2</Subscript>H<Subscript>5</Subscript>)<Subscript>2</Subscript>O liquid system

The aim of this work was to determine the structure of stable heteroassociates (HAs) with the stoichiometric ratios 1:2, 2:1, and 4:1 of molecules formed in the HF-(C₂H₅)₂O binary liquid system. The stretching frequencies of HF molecules found for each HA using a special procedure for processing IR spectra were compared with the calculated frequencies V HF of the stable molecular complexes (HF)_m ((C₂H₅)₂O)_n (m = 1, 2, 4, 8; n = 1, 2) with different topologies by the density functional method (B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p)). As a result, it was shown that the most stable (among H-bonded complexes with the same stoichiometric ratio of molecules) HAs HF((C₂H₅)₂O)₂, (HF)₄ ((C₂H₅)₂O)₂, and (HF)₈-((C₂H₅)₂O)₂ formed in HF solutions in diethyl ether. All of them had a cyclic structure and a common peculiarity of structure: only one lone electron pair of the oxygen atom of the (C₂H₅)₂O molecules is involved in hydrogen bonding.

Quantum-chemical study of chlorophosphoranes: I. Structure of the (C<Subscript>6</Subscript>H<Subscript>5</Subscript>)<Subscript>2</Subscript>PCl<Subscript>3</Subscript> molecule in gaseous and crystalline states

The quantum-chemical calculations of the (C₆H₅)₂PCl₃ molecule were performed by the methods RHF/6-31G(d) and MP2/6-31G(d) with complete and partial optimization of its geometry. The results of calculations were used for evaluating the NQR frequencies of ³⁵Cl and the parameters of asymmetry of the of electric field gradient on the ³⁵Cl nuclei of this molecule. According to the results of calculations with the partial optimization of geometry and to the experimental data of ³⁵Cl NQR the bond lengths were found of central atom P in the solid state of this compound. The mutual influence of its axial and equatorial bonds was studied. It is shown that in chlorophosphoranes the ³⁵Cl NQR frequencies of the axial and equatorial chlorine atoms decrease with the decrease in the bond lengths of phosphorus atom.
