Nature of the pentamethyldisilanyl group in organosilicon compounds

Summary The positige inductive effect of the pentamethyldisilanyl group (CH₃)₃SiSi(CH₃)₂ and the election-acceptor effect of its p-d bond with an aromatic ring are appreciably greater than the analogous effects of the trimethylsilyl group (CH_{3 3}Si, which gives ground for the postulation of the presence of a p-d-d¹ bond in the fragment C_sp ²-Si-Si.

On the pattern of hydrogenolysis of hexane isomers over four Group VIIIB metals

The hydrogenolysis patterns of five hexane isomers have been compared over Rh, Pd, Ir and Pt. The selectivity of rupture of various C–C bond types is different for various metals. The fingerprint-like patterns are, as a rule, similar to those reported in the literature, their correlation with the position of the metal in the periodic system is pointed out.

Thermochemical studies on the systems ACl/CeCl3 (A=Na-Cs)

The pseudobinary systems ACl/CeCl₃ (A=Na-Cs) were reinvestigated by means of DTA. The following compounds were found and identified through their X-ray patterns (primarily detected compounds in italics):NaCe _1.67 Cl ₆; K₃CeCl₆, K₂CeCl₅,KCe _1.67 Cl ₆;Rb ₃ CeCl ₆, Rb₂CeCl₅,RbCe ₂ Cl ₇; Cs₃CeCl₆, Cs₂CeCl₅,CsCe ₂ Cl ₇. The compounds A₂CeCl₅ crystallize with the K₂PrCl₅ structure. The high-temperature modifications of the compounds A₃CeCl₆ have the cubic elpasolite structure. The hexagonal unit cell of KCe_1.67Cl₆ is related to the CeCl₃ structure: 0.33 Ce³⁺ are substituted by one K^s+. The structure of CsCe₂Cl₇ can be described with a hexagonal subcellZ=4,a=9.72 andc=14.94 Å; however, small superstructure reflexions reduce the symmetry.The thermodynamic functions for the reactionsnACl+CeCl₃=A _n CeCl _n+3(A=K, Rb) were determined by means of e.m.f. measurements.Measurements of the e.m.f.E vs. T yielded the Gibbs enthalpiesG ^r . The temperature-dependence was found to be linear.The most important result is the formation of the elpasolites (A₃CeCl₆) and ACe₂Cl₇.

Zusammenfassung Die pseudobinären Systeme ACl/CeCl₃ (A=Na-Cs) wurden mittels Differenzthermoanalyse (DTA) neu untersucht. Folgende Verbindungen wurden gefunden und durch ihre Röntgenbeugungsmuster charakterisiert (erstmalig nachgewiesene Verbindungen sind kursiv):NaCe _1.67 Cl ₆; K₃CeCl₆, K₂CeCl₅,KCe _1.67 Cl ₆;Rb ₃ CeCl ₆, Rb₂CeCl₅,RbCe ₂ Cl ₇; Cs₃CeCl₆, Cs₂CeCl₅,CsCe ₂ Cl ₇. Die Verbindungen A₂CeCl₅ kristallisieren im K₂PrCl₅-Typ. Die Hochtemperaturmodifikationen der Verbindungen A₃CeCl₆ liegen in der kubischen Elpasolith-Struktur vor. Die hexagonale Elementarzelle des KCe_1.67Cl₆ ist mit der CeCl₃-Struktur verwandt: 0,33 Ce³⁺ sind durch ein K⁺ ersetzt. Die Struktur des CsCe₂Cl₇ kann mit einer hexagonalen Pseudozelle beschrieben werden:a=9,72;c=14,94Å;Z=4; schwache Überstrukturreflexe reduzieren jedoch die Symmetrie. Die thermodynamischen Funktionen für die Reaktionen:n ACl + CeCl₃=A _n CeCl _n+3 (A=K, Rb) wurden durch EMK-Messungen bestimmt. Messungen der Abhängigkeit von e. m. f.E gegenT ergaben die Gibbs-EnthalpienG ^r . Es wurde eine lineare Temperaturabhängigkeit gefunden.

Thermal study of some sulphosuccinates

The thermal properties of some sulphosuccinates and their intermediates were studied by using combined dynamic thermal analysis and mass spectrometry. The temperature ranges were similar in the two methods, and a scheme of thermal decomposition of the compounds investigated was suggested. In the first temperature range of thermal decomposition of the sulphosuccinate a-rupture of the molecular ion occurs. In the second temperature range, the fragmentation proceeds in two directions: either-rupture of the ethoxylated nonylphenol, or-rupture of the acid residue of the sulphosuccinates.

Molecular orbital calculations on the optical rotatory properties of chiral allene systems

The chiroptical properties associated with the ^* transitions in dissymmetric allene systems are calculated and relationships between the chiroptical observables and the stereochemical and electronic structural features of these systems are examined. The calculations are based on the INDO and CNDO/S semiempirical molecular orbital models for the electronic structure of the molecular systems and excited states are constructed in the virtual orbital-configuration interaction approximation. The dipole strengths, rotatory strengths, and dissymmetry factors for the three lowest energy ^* transitions are computed and reported for eleven chiral allene structures. Relationships between absolute configuration and the signs of the ^* rotatory strengths are examined and discussed.     

Spectral properties and temperature-dependence of semiconductivity of various doped bismuth trioxide polycrystals

Several samples of Nb₂O₅-doped Bi₂O₃ and Y₂O₃-doped Bi₂O₃ were carefully prepared and sintered at 700° for 3 hours. Extensive measurements were carried out on these samples, including X-ray diffraction spectra, infrared absorption spectra and the temperature-dependence of the DC-electrical conductivity in the solid state. The results obtained were discussed, correlated and interpreted. Finally, the optimum compositions were established and recommended for doped-Bi₂O₃ in the electronics industry.

Effect of methanol dilution on H-ZSM-5 zeolite deactivation in the process of light olefin formation

Conversion of methanol in the presence of H₂O, O₂, H₂, CO, CO₂ and He was studied at 733 K on H-ZSM-5 zeolite. The effect of diluent on the selectivity to light olefins and resistance to coking of H-ZSM-5 were observed. Among the diluents studied only water exerts a promoting effect on prolonged activity of the catalyst. Some explanations of the deactivation process are given.

Verfolgung der Verbrennungsreaktionen Exothermer Massen auf Basis von Aluminium,Fluoriden und Natriumverbindungen mit Differenzialthermoanalyse

Zusammenfassung Das Verbrennen von Mischungen der exothermen Systeme Al-NaF-NaNO₃ und Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃ wurde durch Röntgenanalyse ergänzte DTA untersucht. Um den Einfluß des durch Dissoziation von NaNO₃ gebildeten Sauerstoffs zu bestimmen wurden auch Mischungen, welche anstatt NaNO₃ NaNO₂ oder Na₂O₂ enthielten, geprüft.Zwei, bei 310° bzw. 850° einsetzende exotherme Reaktionen wurden in den Gemischen vom Typ Al-NaF-NaNO₃ gefunden. Die erste ist der Dissoziation von NaNO₃ zuzuschreiben, die zweite ist der Anwesenheit von Luft zuzuordnen.Beide exothermen Reaktionen wurden im System Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃ in Richtung höherer Temperaturen verschoben. Die Untersuchung der NaNO₂- oder Na₂O₂-haltigen Gemische anstatt NaNO₃ zeigte, daß die Dissoziation von NaNO₃ den zum Verbrennen benötigten Sauerstoff liefert, andererseits würde letztere Reaktion sonst nur in begrenztem Ausmaß stattfinden.

Combustion of exothermic mixtures belonging to the system Al-NaF-NaNO₃ and Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃ was investigated by DTA and X-ray analysis. In order to determine the influence of the oxygen generated by dissociation of NaNO₃, the mixtures containing NaNO₂ or Na₂O₂ instead of NaNO₃ were also examined.Two exothermic reactions starting at 310° and 850° rsp. were found in the mixtures of the Al-NaF-NaNO₃ type. The first is due to the dissociation of NaNO₃ and the second proceeds independence of the availability of air.Both exothermic reactions were shifted to higher temperatures in the system Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃. Investigation of the mixtures containing NaNO₂ or Na₂O₂ instead of NaNO₃ has proved that the dissociation of NaNO₃ supplies the oxygen required for combustion which should otherwise proceed only in a limited extent.

Résumé On a étudié, par ATD et par analyse aux rayons X, la combustion des mélanges exothermiques appartenant aux systèmes Al-NaF-NaNO₃ et Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃. Afin de déterminer l'influence de l'oxygène engendré par la dissociation de NaNO₃, on a étudié de même des mélanges contenant NaNO₂ ou Na₂O₂ au lieu de NaNO₃.On a trouvé, dans les mélanges du type Al-NaF-NaNO₃, des réactions exothermiques à partir des temperatures respectives de 310° et 850°. La première est due à la dissociation de NaNO₃ et la seconde dépend de l'air disponible.Dans le système Al-CaF₂-NaNO₃ les deux réactions sont déplacées vers les températures plus élevées. L'examen de mélanges contenant NaNO₂ ou Na₂O₂ au lieu de NaNO₃ à montré que c'est la dissociation de NaNO₃ qui fournit l'oxygène nécessaire pour la combustion. Celleci n'aurait lieu, autrement, que d'une manière limitée.

Das System KNbO3-Nb2O5

Zusammenfassung Das System KNbO₃–Nb₂O₅ wurde mit thermoanalytischen, dilatometrischen und röntgenographischen Methoden neu untersucht. Acht ternäre Verbindungen werden im Bereich von 0–50 Mol-% K₂O gefunden. Nur K₄Nb₆O₁₇ schmilzt kongruent, alle anderen zersetzen sich peritektisch. Bei den beiden niobreichaten ternären Verbindungen handelt es sich um Hochtemperaturphasen, die sich erst oberhalb 1273 bzw. 1551 K bilden. Drei der acht Verbindungen wandeln sich mit steigender Temperatur in ihre Hochtemperaturmodifikation um.

On the dehydration enthalpies of some beta-aluminas

The energetics of the dehydration reaction of single crystal (Na, Na 50%-Li, Li) and ceramic Na beta-aluminas have been studied.From the dependence of the dehydration enthalpy values on the water content it has been deduced that lattice water can be bound in two different ways i.e. by ion-dipole interactions with conducting cations and by hydrogen bonds with spinel block oxygens. As expected, the first one gives binding energies depending on the nature of the monovalent cation (H=84.5 and 59.4 kJ/mol H₂O for Li and Na beta-alumina respectively). In contrast, the enthalpy change associated with the second one is identical for the three beta-aluminas (H=15.1 kJ/mol H₂O). The ceramic Na beta-alumina undergoes a surface reaction too (with CO₂) leading to the formation of carbonates and bicarbonates.

---

Zusammenfassung Die Energetik der Dehydratisierungsreaktion von Einkristallen von Na-, Na (50%)/Li- und Li- sowie von Na--Aluminiumoxid wurde untersucht. Aus der Abhängigkeit der Dehydratisierungsenthalpie vom Wassergehalt ergibt sich, daß Wasser auf zwei verschiedene Weisen gebunden ist, nämlich durch Ion-Dipol-Wechselwirkung mit leitenden Kationen und durch Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen mit Sauerstoffatomen. Wie zu erwarten war werden für die ersteren von der Natur der einwertigen Kationen abhängige Bindungsenergien (H=84.1 kJ/Mol H₂O bzw. 59.4 kJ/Mol H₂O für Li- bzw. Na--Alumina) erhalten. Die auf die zweite Wechselwirkung zurückzuführenden Enthalpieänderung ist dagegen für die drei-Aluminiumoxide identisch (H=15.1 kJ/Mol H₂O). Das keramische Na--Aluminiumoxid zeigt auch eine Oberflächenreaktion mit CO₂, die zur Bildung von Carbonaten und Bicarbonaten führt.

Effect of reduction temperature on the dehydrocyclizing activity of pure chromia and chromia containing K2O and CaO

The dehydrocyclization of n-heptane at 520–550°C over pure chromia and chromia with added CaO and K₂O (5 wt.% each) has been investigated. Introduction of an alkaline additive into Cr₂O₃ decreases markedly the yield of toluene. Raising of the reduction temperature of alkali-containing samples from 550 to 700°C results, in contrast to pure Cr₂O₃ and chromia-alumina systems, not in diminished, but in increased yields of toluene, the activity enhancement being particularly pronounced for the CaO-containing catalyst. These increased activities cannot be correlated either with variations in specific surface area or changes in the content of Cr⁶⁺ during subsequent oxidation, and presumably should be ascribed to more extensive catalyst reduction at higher temperatures.

Simultaneous TG,DTG, DTA and EGA technique for the determination of carbonate,sulphate, pyrite and organic material in minerals,soils and rocks

A simultaneous TG, DTG, DTA and EGA method was developed for the determination of carbonate, sulphate, pyrite and organic material in minerals. The method is based on the selective direct determination of SO₃ and CO₂ evolved from the heated sample, and on the indirect determination of H₂O. The thermogas-titrimetric adapter of the derivatograph collects the liberated gases (CO₂, SO₃, SO₂) quantitatively, absorbs them in water, and titrates them continuously and automatically with NaOH titrant. The changes in the volume of titrant consumed are recorded as a function of the temperature. In two parallel examinations, one titration is performed at pH 4, and the other at pH 9.3. The former measurement yields only the amount of SO₃ (SO₂), while the latter gives the joint amount of SO₃ (SO₂) and CO₂.

Zusammenfassung Autoren entwickelten eine Methode zur simultanen TG, DTG, DTA und EGA zur Bestimmung von Karbonaten, Sulfaten Pyrit und organischem Material in Mineralen. Die Methode basiert auf der selektiven direkten Bestimmung des beim Erhitzen der Probe entwickelten SO₃ bzw. CO₂ und der indirekten Bestimmung von Wasser. Die in Freiheit gesetzten Gase (CO₂, SO₃, SO₂) werden im gastitrimetrischen Adapter des Derivatographen gesammelt, in Wasser absorbiert und kontinuierlich und automatisch mit NaOH titriert. Das Volumen der verbrauchten Titrierflüssigkeit wird in Abhängigkeit von der Temperatur registriert. In zwei Parallelversuchen wird eine Titration bei pH 4, die andere bei pH 9.3 ausgeführt. Die erstere Messung ergibt nur die Menge an SO₃ (SO₂), während bei der letzteren die Gesamtmenge an SO₃ (SO₂) und CO₂ erhalten wird.
