Die Brauchbarkeit von PbClF und PbBrF zur Fluorbestimmung in technischen Fluoriden

Zusammenfassung PbClF und PbBrF werden bezüglich ihrer Fällungsbedingungen und Eignung zur Fluoridbestimmung verglichen.Für reine Lösungen sind bei Einhaltung bestimmter Fällungsbedingungen beide Methoden gleich gut geeignet. Bei der Fällung aus silicathaltigen Probelösungen, wie sie bei der Fluorbestimmung in technischen Fluoriden anfallen, liefert die PbClF-Fällung positive Fehler, während man über PbBrF sehr gute Werte erhält.Eine Arbeitsvorschrift für die Fluorbestimmung in Aluminiumfluorid und Kyrolith nach der Bleibromidfluoridmethode ist angegeben.

Summary PbClF and PbBrF have been compared with respect to their precipitation conditions and their suitability for the determination of fluoride.For pure solutions, if certain precipitation conditions are adhered to, both methods are equally well suitable. When precipitating from silicate-containing sample solutions, as they are obtained when fluorine is determined in technical fluorides, the PbClF precipitations yields positive errors, while very good values are obtained with PbBrF.A working procedure is given for the determination of fluorine in aluminium fluoride and cryolite by the lead bromide fluoride method.

     

Refined ab initio 6-31G split-valence basis set optimization of the molecular structures of biphenyl in twisted,planar, and perpendicular conformations

Improved full ab initio optimizations of the molecular structure of biphenyl in twisted minimum energy, coplanar, and perpendicular conformations by use of Poles's GAUSSIAN 82 program have been performed in the 6-31G basis set. These lead to geometries and energies of much higher reliability than our earlier STO-3G results. The torsional angle Φ_min obtained now is 45.41° in close agreement with the recent experimental value of 44.4° ± 1.2°. Calculated CC distances may be converted to experimental ED r_g-values by means of independently determined linear regression correlations with very high statistical confidence, although they agree better with experimental x ray data for coplanar biphenyl without this correction. Calculated intramolecular angles are very similar for both STO-3G and 6-31G basis sets. The calculated torsional energy barrier towards Φ = 90° (ΔE⁹⁰) is 6.76 kJ/mol in close agreement with the experimental-31G value of 6.5 ± 2.0 kJ/mol. For coplanar biphenyl with D_2h-symmetry the calculated torsional energy barrier ΔE⁰ is 13.26 kJ/mol which is surprisingly much higher than the experimental value of 6.0 ± 2.1 kJ/mol. This discrepancy could not be resolved by optimizations assumed for two kinds of distortions of planarity of orthohydrogens from the molecular plane of the coplanar carbon atoms. But for the twisted minimum energy conformation asymmetric bending of ortho-H atoms lead to a torsional angle Φ_min = 44.74° together with a dihedral angle towards ortho-H of 1.22°, and consequently even to an increase of torsional energy barriers to ΔE⁰ = 13.51 and ΔE⁹⁰ = 6.91 kJ/mol.

4‐Amino‐6‐methyl‐3‐(2H)‐thioxo‐5‐(4H)‐oxo‐1,2,4‐triazine ( 1 ) was condensed with 2‐methyl (or phenyl)‐4H‐3,1‐benzoxazin‐4‐one ( 5a,b ) in boiling acetic acid to give compounds 8‐11 . Reacting 1 with chloroacetyl chloride afforded the corresponding chloroacetamido and triazinothiadiazine derivatives 12 and 13 . Condensing 2 with succinic anhydride and/or phthalic anhydride yielded compounds 14 and 15 . Benzoylation of 4‐amino‐6‐methyl‐3‐(2H)‐thioxo‐5‐(4H)‐oxo‐2‐(2,3,4,5‐tetra‐O‐acetyl‐α‐D‐glucopyra‐nosyl)‐1,2,4‐triazine ( 19 ) afforded the corresponding 4‐N,N‐dibenzoyl derivative 20 .

Configurationally and conformationally homogeneous cyclic n-aryl sulfimides—IV : Synthesis,configuration and stereochemistry of the rearrangement of 1,3-di-thiane-1-N-p-chlorophenylimides

1,3-Dithiane-1-N-p-chlorophenylimides (1,4-9) were prepared and their configuration and conformation was determined by ¹H and ¹³C NMR. The compounds were rearranged to the corresponding 2-(2'-amino-5'-chlorophenyl)-1, 3-dithianes (1U,4U,9U). The rearrangement reactions took place with ?95% stereospecifity. The mechanism of the reaction was investigated with the aid of analogs specifically deuterated at C-2.     

Rhodium-Katalysierte Isomerisierungen von 2-Methylidenglutarsäureestern zu Methylglutaconsäureestern

The Rhodium(III)-catalyzed thermal isomerization of 2-methylidenglutaric acid esters affords predominantly mixtures of cis/trans-2-methylglutaconic acid esters ( 2, 3 ) which upon slow distillation isomerize completely into the cis-esters ( 2 ). Saponification of 2 yields trans-2-methylglutaconic acid ( 5 ). Attempts to prepare the acid chloride of 5 produces 6-chloro-5-methylpyrone-2 ( 9 ) or 6-chloro-3-methylpyrone-2 ( 10 ) which react with anilines to N-substituted derivatives of trans-4-methylglutaconic acid amides ( 11 ). The thermal isomerizations of the respective esters are discussed in terms of 1,5-hydrogen shifts in their ester enol structures.     

Thermal decomposition of cobalt nitrato compounds: Preparation of anhydrous cobalt(II)nitrate and its characterisation by Infrared and Raman spectra

The thermal decomposition of Co(NO₃)₂·6H₂O (1) as well as that one of NO[Co(NO₃)₃] (Co(NO₃)₂·N₂O₄) (2) was followed by thermogravimetric (TG) measurements, X-ray recording and Raman and IR spectra. The stepwise decomposition reactions of 1 and 2 leading to anhydrous cobalt(II)nitrate (3) were established. In N₂ atmosphere, cobalt oxides are finally formed whereas in H₂/N₂ (10% H₂) cobalt metal is produced. Rapid heating of cobalt(II)nitrate hexahydrate causes melting (formation of a hydrate melt) and therefore side reactions in the hydrate melt by incoupled reactions and evolution/evaporation of different species as, e.g., HNO₃, NO₂, etc. In case of larger amounts in dense packing in the sample container, the formation of oxo(hydoxo)nitrates is possible at higher temperature. For 2, its thermal decomposition to 3 was followed and its decomposition mechanism is proposed.

Detection of stress whitening in plastics with the help of X-ray dark field imaging

The processing of thermoplastics can induce a wide range of defects such as stress whitening, cavitation and porosity, which can adversely affect the reliability of the final products. Hence, fast and effective non-destructive detection methods for such defects are highly important for quality assurance on production lines. In this paper, X-ray dark field imaging is presented as a new non-destructive testing method that allows the visualization of stress whitening or cavitation efficiently. The performance of the method is demonstrated for the case of an injection-moulded polyvinylidene fluoride part that exhibits stress whitening. Whereas the stress whitening could not be detected by conventional X-ray imaging, it was localized by an X-ray dark field image acquired within a few minutes. Once the precise location of the stress whitening was known, it was possible to verify the result by local micro X-ray computed tomography and by a micro section image.
