The determination of the thermodynamic characteristics of Lennard-Jones fluids under isobaric conditions by the method of molecular functions

Integral equation theory for partial distribution functions was used to suggest an effective method for calculating the derivative of radial distribution function with respect to temperature under isobaric conditions. The thermodynamic expansion, compression, and pressure coefficients and isobaric and isochoric heat capacities were calculated for Lennard-Jones fluids. The calculation results were in close agreement with the known thermodynamic relations.     

Isopoly-molybdic acids

From the measurements of conductivity, diffusion coefficient etc., Jander indicated the presence of several isopoly-anions of molybdenum under different pH conditions. He and subsequent workers in the field dealt with solutions only. In the present work one free molybdic acid, and one ammonium acid molybdate were isolated in solid condition at pH 4.6 and 2. On analysis, their compositions were found to be H₄Mo₃O₁₁ and NH₄H₅Mo₆O₂₁ (or (NH₄)₂H₄Mo₇O₂₄) respectively.     

The method of non-paired spatial orbitals

The calculation of non-paired spatial orbitals and alternant molecular orbital wavefunctions for the benzyl radical is described. The NPSO and AMO methods give comparable energy lowerings which indicate that they make substantial allowance for electron correlation. The calculated spin densities are not in very good accord with experiment and it is thought that this reflects inadequacies in the integral approximations used.     

Intramolecular hydrogen bond in substituted 3-hydroxypyridines

To explain the character of the intramolecular hydrogen bond in substituted 3-hydroxypyridines, the chemical shifts in the NMR spectra of the hydroxyl group and the IR spectra were studied. It was established that the stability of the intramolecular hydrogen bond of the O-HNR₂ type in substituted 3-hydroxypyridines increases when compared with the corresponding phenols, while an opposite pattern is observed for bonds of the O-H0₂ N type. An approximate evaluation of the energy of the intramolecular hydrogen bond in substituted 3-hydroxypyridines was achieved. When reacting with bases of the same strength, 3-hydroxypyridine forms more stable complexes than phenol.     

Kettenverzweigung bei der Polymerisation von Vinylchloracetat und Vinylacetat

Zusammenfassung Bei niedrigen Umsätzen und einer Polymerisationstemperatur von 50°C erhaltene Polyvinylacetate sind unverzweigt; das gleiche gilt für Polyvinylchoracetate. Bei diesen wurde die bei höheren Umsätzen auftretende Verzweigung durch Verseifung und Acetylierung der Polymeren sowie durch Messung von []-, und Werten an den Polymeren bestimmt. Eine Selbstverzweigung der wachsenden Kette konnte nicht gefunden werden. *** DIRECT SUPPORT *** A3615144 00012

Chain branching in vinyl chloroacetate and vinyl acetate polymerization

Polymerization of vinyl acetate and vinyl chloroacetate to low conversions at 50°C gave unbranced polymers. The branching of polyvinyl chloroacetates at higher conversions was determined by hydrolysis and acetylation of the polymers and by measuring [], and . No self-branching of the growing chains could be found.

Photometric determination of small amounts of rhenium in the organic layer after separation of tungsten and molybdenum by liquid-liquid extraction

Rhenium(VII) is separated by extraction of tetraphenylarsoniumperrhenate from a 100 000-fold excess of W, 100 00-fold excess of Mo, and from Cu and Ni. For photometric determination Re is reduced in the organic layer and the colour formed by addition of -furildioxime is used for the measurement at 530 nm; =297501 · Mol^–1 · cm^–1.

On the photochemistry of alpha, beta-unsaturated gamma-aldehydoketones. I. The UVirradiation of 3, 19-dioxo-17-beta-acetoxy-delta-4-androstene

Irradiation of 3,19-dioxo-17β-acetoxy-Δ⁴-androstene ( 2 ) at room temperature in either of its two absorption bands centered at about 245 and 315 nm, respectively, led to products 21, 22 , and 23 (Chart 3). Compounds 21 and 22 result from rearrangements involving intramolecular formal 1,2- (→ 21 ) and 1,3-shifts (→ 22 ) of the angular formyl group, and the formation of compound 23 proceeds through the elimination of the formyl radical and the incorporation of a hydrogen from the medium. Evidence favors the latter process to be a secondary radical reaction rather than a primary photochemical step.     

Polarographic separation of cobalt from nickel

Summary The polarographic behaviour of nickel and cobalt in the mixed base electrolytes, urea-pyridine and urea-hydrazine has been studied. The effect of p_H, concentration of supporting electrolyte and the presence of various other ions was investigated. Well defined polarograms for both the elements were obtained at p_H 6.0 and 5.0 respectively. Attempts were made to utilize these observations in the separation of the two cations. While the difference in E _1/2 of the ions in urea-pyridine was greater than –0.3 volts that in urea-hydrazine was about –0.2 volts or slightly less even under the optimum conditions. In a mixed solution the waves for Co and Ni were therefore well developed and separated in the former base electrolyte. The polarograms in urea-hydrazine were, however, of little analytical use because of the washing away of the Ni wave due to the presence of even small amounts of cobalt.

Zusammenfassung Das polarographische Verhalten von Nickel und Kobalt in Harnstoff-Pyridin- und Harnstoff-Hydrazinlösung wurde untersucht und der Einfluß des p_H-Wertes, der Leitsalzkonzentration sowie der Gegenwart verschiedener anderer Ionen festgestellt. Bei p_H 6,0 bzw. 5,0 wurden für beide Elemente gut ausgebildete Polarogramme erhalten. Es wurde versucht, die erhaltenen Ergebnisse zur Trennung der beiden Ionen zu benutzen. In Harnstoff-Pyridinlösung beträgt der Unterschied der beiden Halbstufenpotentiale mehr als –0,3 V und man erhält gut ausgebildete und voneinander getrennte Stufen. In Harnstoff-Hydrazinlösung dagegen beträgt der Unterschied nur –0,2 V oder etwas weniger, selbst unter optimaler Bedingungen, und die Ni-Stufe wird schon durch kleine Kobaltmengen beeinträchtigt.

     

Properties of molten carboxylates part 5. A quantitative differential thermal analysis study of mesophase formation in the sytems lead(II)dodecanoate/lead(II) oxide and lead(II)dodecanoate/hendecane

Measurements have been made of the temperatures and enthalpy changes of phase transitions in the systems lead dodecanoate/lead oxide and lead dodecanoate/hendecane. The data have been discussed in terms of the R theory of amphiphylic mesophases. The concepts of the R theory are shown to be useful in the interpretation of phase transitions in molten carboxylate systems.     

13C NMR coupling constants in delocalized organo-alkali metal compounds. Models of polymerization systems

2,5-Diphenyl-2,5-dipotassiohexane, 2-lithio-4,4-dimethyl-2-phenylpentane, and 1-lithio-2,5,5-trimethylhexene-2 have been prepared, all labelled with¹³C in the position adjacent to the alkali metal atom. The¹³C NMR spectra of these compounds have been measured and the¹³CC coupling constants found for the charged atom. The first two compounds have coupling constants consistent with an sp² hybridized C_α, with relatively little effect of the charge on the coupling constant. The third compound, when dissolved in either THF or benzene, gave much smaller coupling constants, which are more difficult to interpret.
