Synthesis of 3-Aryl[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">b</Emphasis>][1,3]benzothiazole-6,7-dicarbonitriles from 5-Aryl-4H-triazole-2-thiols and 5-Bromo-5-nitrophthalonitrile

New 3-aryl-substituted [1,2,4]triazolo][3,4-b][1,3]benzothiazole-6,7-dicarbonitriles have been synthesized by successive interaction of 5-aryl-4H-triazole-2-thiols with 4-bromo-5-nitrophthalonitrile in the presence of K₂CO₃ initially at the bromine atoms and then at the nitro group.__________Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, 270–272, February, 2005.     

Geminate Pairs and Their Role in Radiation-Induced Conductivity of Poly(methyl methacrylate)

Non-steady-state radiation-induced conductivity of poly(methyl methacrylate) was studied at room and elevated temperatures. It was shown that the conductivity is due to electric polarization of geminate pairs. The evolution of geminate pairs was rationalized in terms of the Rose–Fowler–Weisberg generalized model. The conclusions by the model were compared with the results of previous studies on the kinetics of formation and decay of geminate pairs upon pulse radiolysis or flash photolysis of doped poly(methyl methacrylate).     

超级微波消解-电感耦合等离子体发射光谱（ICP-OES）法测定土壤中18种元素

为提高土壤多元素同时检测的效率,采用超级微波消解-电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法测定土壤中钾、钠、钙、镁、铜、铁、锰、锌、磷、硫、硼、砷、镉、铬、铅、钴、镓、锂等18种元素含量。比较了超级微波消解、常规微波消解和电热板消解的处理效果,采用超级微波消解法对样品进行前处理,并优化了消解条件。在最优条件下,各元素的检出限在0.05~20 mg/kg,加标回收率在86.2%~107.5%,RSD在0.1%~3.0%,方法准确度及精密度可以满足多元素同时测定的需求,且该方法具有简单、快速、成本低、用酸量少、重现性好等特点。     

Synthesis of chalcones from 3-formyl-substituted pyrrolo[3,4-<Emphasis Type="Italic">f</Emphasis>]indole-5,7-diones

General methods to access new 3-formyl-substituted 1-methoxypyrrolo[3,4-f]indole-5,7-diones were developed. The synthesized 3-formylindoles react with heterocyclic aceto-phenones under acid-catalyzed conditions to give different chalcones.     

The role of molecular-kinetic and thermal factors in inhibition of steady detonation

It was experimentally shown that the reaction of the combustion of hydrogen–air mixtures in a detonation wave virtually completely (with an accuracy of 1%) occurs by a branched-chain mechanism; it is this mechanism that determines the characteristics of the detonation wave.     

A Novel Niobium Cluster Aqua Ion with Capping μ4‐Se Ligand

The aqueous solution chemistry of niobium is underexplored, and well characterized aqua complexes are scarce. In this contribution, a new niobium aqua complex was obtained by treatment of Zn‐reduced ethanolic solution of NbCl₅ with HCl in the presence of a selenide source (ZnSe). This is the first example of selenium containing aqua complex of niobium. The yellow‐green aqua complex was isolated by cation‐exchange chromatography and transformed into corresponding isothiocyanate complex by ligand exchange, which was crystallized as (PyH)_4.5[H_1.5Nb₄SeO₅(NCS)₁₀] · 0.5H₂O. X‐ray structural analysis revealed a metal‐metal bonded tetranuclear {Nb₄(μ₄‐Se)(μ₂‐O)₅}⁴⁺ core with a capping μ₄‐Se ligand.     

Theory of relaxation spectra of polymer networks with interchain friction and long-range hydrodynamic interactions

The dynamic network model taken into account the friction relative to incompressible effective viscous medium (EVM), the hydrodynamic interactions of a network with the EVM, and the interchain friction is considered. Two collective network relaxation spectra (RS) arise. The first RS corresponds to the network motion relative to immobile EVM, the EVM does not take part in this motion. The second RS includes the combined viscous motion of the network and EVM because of long-range hydrodynamic interactions. This RS is finite and narrow for infinitely large network. The symmetry of this motion is in concordance with that of incompressible EVM. The existence of interchain friction leads to the narrowing of both types of relaxation spectra.
