Kinetics and products of the reaction of diazo compounds with SO2

Data were obtained on the composition of products and kinetics of the reaction of SO₂ with Ph(R)CN₂ (R=Ph, Me) in solutions of isooctane, 1,4-di-oxane, and ethanol at 295 K. A mechanism was proposed for the process in accordance with which the sulfene being formed participates in concurrent reactions with the starting reagents. The relative rate constants for the process stages were determined.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2496–2500, November, 1990.     

29Si NMR study of the surface of pyrogenic silica modified by methylchlorosilanes

Cross-polarization ²⁹Si NMR spectra have been used for aerosil modified by methylchlorosilanes to identify surface organosilicon compounds and their reactions during hydrolysis and methanolysis.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Eksperimental'naya Khimiya, No. 3, pp. 378–383, May–June, 1986.
