IR spectra of oxygen adsorbed on SnO2

IR spectra of oxygen adsorbed on SnO₂ with and without lattice defects have been studied. At low temperatures oxygen is adsorbed on defect SnO₂ in two forms of O ₂ ^– . This supports the earlier results obtained by ESR. The low-temperature forms of adsorbed oxygen (unrevealed in ESR spectra) were detected on defectless SnO₂. High-temperature forms of adsorbed oxygen appear in the IR-spectra as bands due to vibrations of the cation-oxygen bond.

Hydrogenation of xylenes over supported Pt catalysts. Influence of different variables on their catalytic activity

In this work we studied and compared the catalytic activity of various supported Pt systems on the gas-phase hydrogenation of o-, m- and p-xylene. We analyzed the influence of different catalyst preparation variables (solvent, precursor, salt, support and catalyst reduction temperature used) on the catalytic activity and selectivity towards the corresponding cis-and trans-dimethylcyclohexanes.

Kinetic and mechanistic studies on the oxidation of sulfanilic acid by peroxomonophosphoric acid

Oxidation of sulfanilic acid to the corresponding azoxy derivative by peroxomonophosphoric acid (PMPA) has been studied in aqueous medium. The observed bell-shaped pH-rate profile has been rationalized on the basis of protonation of the amino group and ionization into different PMPA species and a suitable rate law has been proposed. The mechanism of oxidation involves the nucleophilic attack of nitrogen on the electrophilic peroxo oxygen.

On the mechanism of propylene epoxidation catalyzed by molybdenum naphthenate

The mechanism of the catalytic epoxidation of propylene with -phenylethyl hydroperoxide has been investigated. The epoxidation step is a molecular interaction between propylene and a complex formed from hydroperoxide and catalyst, while part of side products is formed in free radical reactions. This mechanism is valid for the kinetics of both epoxidation and catalytic decomposition of hydroperoxide.

Kinetic analysis of consecutive reactions using TG and DSC techniques

A complex mechanism of thermal degradation processes was postulated for the reaction type , and a theoretical analysis of DTG and DSC curves was followed by corresponding mathematical simulation. In this scheme, compoundS represents a volatile product (e.g. gas and/or vapor), which is a necessary assumption in order to explain the differences in results which can arise after the kinetic analysis of DTG and DSC experimental data.Mathematical simulation was performed with different values of the Arrhenius parameter for both reaction rate constants (k ₁, andk ₂) in the range 83.1–291.0 kJ/mol for the activation energy and with corresponding values for the frequency factor (10⁵–10¹⁹ min^–1). The influence of endothermic heat effects (50–200 kJ/mol) in the reactionsAE andRS was also investigated. The calculated rates of mass and heat change (DTG and DSC), for different heating rates, showed that the maximum values of the two curves are reached at different temperatures. The non-uniformity of the DTG and DSC maxima depends on the difference between the values of the reaction rate constants and their temperature sensitivities (E ₁ andE ₂) and also on the heating rate.The theoretical analysis performed demonstrated the possibility of determining the reaction rate parameters (k ₁ andk ₂) in the case of consecutive first-order reactions, by using simultaneous TG and DSC analysis.The proposed theoretical analysis is supported by experimental DTG/DSC data concerning the pyrolysis of oil shale, which were interpreted in terms of consecutive reactions.

Zusammenfassung Unter Annahme eines komplexen Mechanismus für thermische Abbauprozesse wurde für den Reaktionstyp eine theoretische analyse von DTG- und DSC-Kurven, gefolgt von einer entsprechenden mathematischen Simulation durchgeführt. Hier stellt die VerbindungS ein flüchtiges Produkt dar (lias oder Dampf), was eine notwendige Bedingung zur Erklärung von unterschiedlichen Ergebnissen nach der kinetischen Analyse der experimentellen DTG- und DSC-Daten ist. Bei der mathematischen Simulation wurden unterschiedliche Arrheniusparameterwerte benutzt, für beide Reaktionsgeschwindigkeitskonstanten (k₁ und k₂) in einem Intervall von 83,1–291,0 kJ/mol für die Aktivierungsenergie sowie unter Anwendung entsprechender Frequenzfaktoren (10⁵–10¹⁹ min^–1). Für die ReaktionenA R undR S wurde auch der Einfluß von endothermen Wärmeeffekten (50–200 kJ/mol) untersucht. Die berechneten Geschwindigkeiten für die Veränderung von Masse und Wärme (DTG und DSC) bei verschiedenen Aufheizgeschwindigkeiten zeigen, daß beide Kurven ihr Maximum bei unterschiedlichen Temperaturen erreichen. Die Ungleichmäßigkeit der DTG- und DSC-Maxima basiert auf den unterschiedlichen Werten der Reaktionsgeschwindigkeitskonstanten, deren Temperaturempfindlichkeit (E ₁ undE ₂ und hängt auch von der Aufheizgeschwindigkeit ab. Die durchgeführte theoretische Analyse zeigt, daß es mit Hilfe simultaner DTG- und DSC-Untersuchungen möglich ist, im Falle konsekutiver Reaktionen erster Ordnung die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeitsparameter (k ₁ undk ₂) zu bestimmen. Das vorgeschlagene theoretische Analysenverfahren wird am Beispiel der experimentellen DTG/DSC-Daten der Pyrolyse von Ölschiefer und Anwendung konsekutiver Reaktionen illustriert.

Effect of quantization of molecular rotations on the rate of capture in the ion-linear dipole system

The version of transition state theory that accounts for quantization of the rotational energy of a dipole gives ion-dipole capture rate constants in good agreement with the statistical adiabatic channel model and, in the region , gives results more accurate than those obtained by numerical trajectory calculations.

Kinetics of photochemically induced benzaldehyde-cumene cooxidation

Benzaldehyde-cumene co-oxidation was carried out using biacetyl as a photosensitizer. A co-oxidation mechanism is proposed and the kinetic study allows us to show a higher reactivity towards oxidizable substances of the peroxybenzoyl radicals than that of peroxy-,-dimethylbenzyl radicals, thus explaining the quenching effect of cumene.

The rate of both processes increases with increasing predegradation time and oxygen pressure.

Chemical behaviour of helium muonide just after muon catalyzed fusion

Chemical behaviour of a helium muonide atom /He^o/ can be understood on the analogy of its hydrogen homologues, muonium /Mu/, deuterium /D^o/ and tritium /T^o/. In muon catalyzed fusion /CF/, a small fraction of negative muon in the fusion cycle sticks to helium to give proton-like He⁺ which easily picks up one electron forming He^o. The energy of He⁺ at birth is about 3.5 MeV being in a similar situation to the case of a hot tritium atom produced by /n, p/ or /n, / reaction. The reaction cross section and rate of He^o reactions are estimated.     

On the compositions and strengths of charge-transfer complexes

The compositions of charge-transfer complexes of urea and thiourea with some aromatic hydrocarbons (naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene and biphenyl) have been established through phase diagram studies. The enthalpies and entropies of fusion of these complexes have been estimated by differential scanning calorimetry. It is observed that the relative stabilities of the solid-state charge-transfer complexes in the donor-acceptor systems studied cannot be predicted from the areas under the curves of the congruent compounds in the phase diagrams.
