Thermal analysis of 1-Hydroxiethylidenediphosphonic acid and its salts

1-Hydroxyethylidenediphosphonic acid and its tetrasubstitutcd Li, Na, K, Rb, NH₄, Ca and Ba salts were synthcsized and their thermal behaviour was studied under non-isothermal conditions by simultaneous TG-DTG-DTA at 20–1000 C. The following thermal transformations were observed: loss of crystallization water, melting in the case of the acid, and intramolecular dehydration in the case of the salts, leading to the corresponding unsaturated derivatives. From the free acid, its acidic salts and the neutral ammonium salt, long-chain polycondensates are formed through intermolecular dehydration.

Application of the MIMS Technique to Study the Stability Constants of Small Organic Guest Molecules into Cyclodextrin Hosts in Aqueous Medium

In this work the potential of MIMS (Membrane Introduction Mass Spectrometry) for studying the inclusion of small organic guest molecules into cyclodextrin hosts in aqueous medium was investigated. MIMS profiles showed that the inclusion of benzene in cyclodextrins is favored in the following order: -CD HO-propyl--CD> -CD> -CD with equilibrium constants of K -CD = 404; K_HO-propyl-CD = 395, K _-CD = 335 and K _-CD = 210 M^-1 at 25 °C. Kinetic experiments suggested that under the conditions employed the inclusion process has a pseudo first-order dependence on the guest benzene concentration with the following order: -CD > -CD HO-propyl--CD> -CD. MIMS inclusion profiles of chlorobenzene and toluene showed that the presence of substituents in benzene makes the inclusion in -CD more difficult. Experiments with ferrocene--CD have also been carried out, showing that the complex rapidly dissociates in water and the resulting free -CD can complex with benzene present in the solution.     

Molecular Recognition Based on Roof-shaped Diol Hosts. X-Ray Crystal Structures of Inclusion Compounds with Methanol, Pyridine and Toluene

Three crystalline inclusion compounds of roof-shapedtrans-11,12-bis(diaryl-hydroxymethyl)-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene host molecules [where aryl is 4-methyl-phenyl (3) or4-t-butylphenyl (4)] have been studied by X-ray diffraction.The crystals of both the 3methanol (2 : 1) [a = 10.755(1),b = 11.571(1), c = 14.697(2) Å, = 75.12(1), = 89.67(1), = 87.13(1) °] and the 4-pyridine (2 : 3) compounds[a = 14.045(3), b = 14.366(3), c = 15.607(3) Å, = 91.62(1), = 103.65(1) and =116.05(1)°] are triclinic (P–1),while the 3toluene (1 : 1) complex has orthorhombic (Fddd) symmetry [a = 16.041(1), b = 25.008(1), c = 40.440(4) Å]. The host–guest interactions in both triclinic crystals are characterised by hydrogen bonds, with different patterns however. The determined crystal structures indicate a compromise between the requirement of hydrogen bonding on the one hand and close packing on the other. The highly symmetrical host framework in the toluene (1 : 1) complex of 3 seems to be the result of shape recognition, although atendency towards weak (C_methyl)H _arylinteractions [C_methyl = 3.533(7) and 3.674(6) Å] between the hosts was observed. The present roof-shaped diol hosts give excellent examples of molecular recognition by exhibiting two significantly different conformations, mostly depending on the proton donor/acceptor ability of the guest component. (O)H O intramolecular bonding between the two alcoholic groups characterises the so-called active form, whereas weaker (O)H and interactions stabilise the `inactive'conformation.     

Effect of ammonia on toluene ammoxidation over oxide catalysts

The increased activity of the catalyst for ammoxidation of toluene observed in the presence of ammonia is ascribed to its binding with the acidic centers. which leads to the formation of new active basic sites on the catalyst surface.

Application of thermal analysis for investigations of polymer powders for coatings

Polypropylene coatings obtained by the fluidized bed method were investigated. It was proved that the application of thermal analysis methods for their characterization gave many useful data, as a consequence of the similar conditions of thermal measurements and plastics powder processing. Significant correlations were found between the thermal properties and the standard coating poperties.

Promotion of the catalytic activity of zeolites by alkyl halides

The promotion of catalytic activity of zeolites by CCl₄ was studied in a pulse reactor using aromatic alkylation as model reaction. The reaction of surface OH groups with CCl₄ produced HCl which increased the catalytic activity. The maximum enhancement of activity occurred when the catalyst was weakly acidic.

A novel method for the dealumination of zeolites

A wide range of halogen containing reagents (metal halides, oxyhalides, acid halides, etc.) are found to interact from the gas phase with exchange ions of zeolites and to effect dealumination at elevated temperatures. The incorporation of extraneous ions into the framework by this technique is not impossible theoretically. The importance of the method in the preparation of dealuminated and/or metal containing catalysts is discussed.

Retarded solid state reactions

Reconstructive phase transitions and formation or decomposition reactions in the solid state exhibit in DTA-measurements a more or less great hysteresis between the temperatures from heating and cooling curves; at worst the reaction can be suppressed completely. By e.m.f.vs. T-measurements in appropriate galvanic cells for solid electrolytes equilibrium temperatures in the case of such kinetic hindrance can be determined and additionally the existence of metastable states can be proved.

---

Zusammenfassung Rekonstruktive Phasenumwandlungen sowie Bildungs- und Zersetzungsreaktionen im festen Zustand zeigen bei DTA-Messungen eine mehr oder minder große Hysteresis zwischen den aus Aufheiz- bzw. Abkühlkurven ermittelten Temperaturen; schlimmstenfalls kann die Festkörperreaktion völlig unterdrückt sein. Mißt man in geeigneten galvanischen Zellen für Festelektrolyte EMK-gegen-T-Kurven, so erhält man auch im Falle kinetischer Hemmungen Gleichgewichtstemperaturen und kann darüber hinaus das Vorliegen metastabiler Zustände nachweisen.

Three-component complexes of cyclodextrins. Exciplex formation in cyclodextrin cavity

The fluorescence quenching of naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, and acenaphthene by trimethylamine (TMA) was studied in aqueous -cyclodextrin (-CD) solutions to know the structural requirements for guest molecules to form three-component complexes. The apparent rates for the fluorescence quenching of the naphthalene derivatives by TMA markedly increased in the presence of -CD. The fluorescence quenching of 1-methylnaphthalene and acenaphthene by TMA was accelerated by -CD more efficently than that of naphthalene. These results suggest the structures of the three-component complexes as the arene-capped -CD including TMA in its cavity.

Steroid glycosides of the roots ofCapsicum annuum. II. The structure of the capsicosides

Two tigogenin glycosides and two diosgenin glycosides have been isolated from a methanolic extract of the roots of bush red pepper. An attempt to isolate the individual spirostanol glycosides directly was unsuccessful. These compounds have very similar structures. For their separation, acetylation and epoxidation of the double bond of the aglycon, diosgenin, in the corresponding glycosides was performed. The derivatives obtained were purified by chromatography. To establish the complete chemical structure of each capsicoside we used both chemical and physical methods; complete and partial acid hydrolysis, methylation followed by methanolysis, IR spectroscopy, mass spectroscopy, etc. It was shown that capsicoside A₂ is (25R)-5-spirostan-3-ol 3-O--D-galactopyranoside, capsicoside B₂ is (25R)-5-spirostan-3-ol 3-O-[O--D-glucopyranosyl(14)--D-galactopyranoside], capsicoside A₃ is (25R)-spirost-5-en-3-ol 3-O--D-galactopyranoside, and capsicoside B₃ is identical with funkioside C.Institute of Chemistry, Academy of Sciences of the Moldavian SSR, Kishinev.

Effect of the secondary structure of poly-L-lysine on the adsorption at the water/dodecane interface

The adsorption of poly-L-lysine of different conformation (-helix, -sheet and random coil) at the water/dodecane interface has been studied by interfacial tension measurements using the drop volume method. The experimental adsorption isotherms provide information about a critical aggregation concentration, the maximum interfacial tension depression_max and the minimum area A occupied by adsorbed molecules at the interface. Differences in_max exist between -helix and -sheet and, moreover, in the area values between random-coil on the one side and -helix and -sheet on the other hand.

Preparation and properties of cyclodextrin inclusion compounds of organometallic complexes. Ferrocene inclusion compounds

Inclusion compounds of ferrocene(FcH) and its derivatives with cyclodextrins(CDs; -CD, -CD, and -CD) were prepared. CD-ferrocene inclusion compounds were obtained in a crystalline state in high yield. -CD and -CD formed 11 stoichiometric inclusion compounds with ferrocene and its derivatives. -CD formed 21 (CD:guest) complexes with ferrocene and the monosubstituted derivatives, but did not form complexes with 1,1-disubstituted derivatives, -CD-FcH and -CD-FcH complexes are thermally stable and do not liberate ferrocene on heating at 100°C in vacuo. The cyclodextrin inclusion compounds were characterized by¹H-NMR, IR, UV, and CD spectra. A large positive induced Cotton effect was observed in the case of -CD-FcH complex, while the -CD-FcH complex showed a negative spectrum. The binding mode is discussed. -Cyclodextrin was found to form inclusion complexes in ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, methyl cellosolve, ethyl cellosolve, methyl alcohol, and glycerine solutions. -CD also formed complexes in ethylene glycol solution. The binding of ferrocene by -CD is stronger in ethylene glycol than in dimethyl sulfoxide and dimethyl formamide.
