Study of the ternary system FeCrTe around the composition FeCr2Te4

The system FeCrTe was investigated around the composition FeCr₂Te₄. FeCr₂Te₄ is a metastable compound. Single crystals with Fe_0·93Cr_1·76Te₄ composition were grown by vapor transport or the Bridgman method. These crystals are metallic and anisotropic ferromagnets.     

The crystal structure of eudesma-4(15),7(11)-dien-8α, 12-olide: a sesquiterpene lactone fromTrattinickia rhoifolia Willd

The title compound, formula C₁₅H₂₀O₂, is orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2₁ witha=8.747(2),b=12.025(3),c=12.554(3)Å,Z=4, andD _m =1.32(2)g/ml. The structural analysis shows that the compound corresponds to eudesma-4(15),7(11)-dien-8,12-olide, a sesquiterpene lactone previously isolated fromAster umbellatus but whose crystal structure was unknown.     

Formal orthogonal polynomials revisited. Applications

From some results concerning the formal orthogonal polynomials, already proved in [5], we develop new properties of generalized adjacent polynomials which correspond to a change in the weight function. A new structure of the singular blocks is given. These results have a direct application to Lanczos methods, theG and -algorithms.     

Beiträge zur Chemie der Pyrrolo[3,2-c]azepine und der Pyrrolo [3,2-b]azepine

Some chemical transformations in the series of the pyrrolo [3,2-b]azepines and the pyrrolo[3,2-c]azepines are reported: alkylation at the pyrrolo nitrogen and/or the azepino nitrogen, reduction of the lactam group by means of LiAlH₄, preparation of lactim ethers and amidines, substitution in position 2 by MANNICH reaction, bromination and condensation with oxalyl chloride or chloral hydrate, and the cyclocondensation with dimethylmalonyl chloride. The structures of the 2-substitution products have been evaluated by NMR.-spectroscopy.     

Recherches sur la structure électronique de composés soufrés (méthode L.C.A.O. améliorée)

Improved L.C.A.O. method primitively built for conjugated molecules holding only atoms of second row in the periodic classification is extended to molecules holding atoms of the third row. The application is done for thiophen, thioketones, SO₂ and SO₃. d orbitals are not introduced in this study. Discussion about results shows that d orbitals must be introduced when the sulphur atom is strongly positively charged like in sulphur oxides.
