A study of a nonprimitive model for electrolyte solutions based on perturbation theory

The equation for the Helmholtz free energy for systems of small anisotropic molecules and ions is deduced by substituting the complete expression for various potential energies (including repulsive, dispersive, electrostatic, and induced energies) into the perturbation expansion. The equation is applied to pure water. The relative dielectric constant is set at unity. Based on the equal chemical potentials of equilibrated vapor and liquid phases, the molecular parameters of water are regressed from the densities of saturated vapor in the temperature range of 0 to 370°C. The ARD of regression is 1.16%. These parameters are used to predict the heat of vaporization and densities of saturated vapor and liquid phases of water in the same temperature range. The ARDs of prediction are 4.5% and 9.8%, respectively. The equation is used to correlate the osmotic coefficients of twelve 1:1 electrolyte solutions. The relative dielectric constant is set at unity. The parameters (Soft-sphere diameter and dispersive constant) of seven ions (Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺, Cs⁺, Cl^–, Br^–, and I^–) are obtained. The total average absolute deviation between calculated and experimental values of the osmotic coefficient is 0.041. The parameters of ions can keep constant in different systems.     

Effect of the sixth axial ligand in CS-ligated iron(II)octaethylporphyrinates: structural and Mössbauer studies

The effect of a sixth ligand in a series of low-spin thiocarbonyl-ligated iron(II)octaethylporphyrinates has been investigated. Six-coordinate complexes have been synthesized and characterized by M?ssbauer and infrared spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray structure determinations. The results are compared with the five-coordinate parent complex. The crystal structures of [Fe(OEP)(CS)(1-MeIm)] and [Fe(OEP)(CS)(Py)] are reported and discussed. The 1-methylimidazole and pyridine derivatives exhibit Fe-C(CS) bond distances of 1.703(4) and 1.706(2) A that are significantly longer than the 1.662(3) A reported for five-coordinate [Fe(OEP)(CS)] (Scheidt, W. R.; Geiger, D. K. Inorg. Chem. 1982, 21, 1208). The trans Fe-N(ligand) distances of 2.112(3) and 2.1550(15) A observed for the 1-methylimidazole and pyridine complex are approximately 0.13 A longer than those observed for analogous bis-ligated complexes and are consistent with a significant structural trans effect for the CS ligand. M?ssbauer investigations carried out for five- and six-coordinate thiocarbonyl derivatives with several different sixth axial ligands reveal interesting features. All derivatives exhibit very small isomer shift values, consistent with a very strong interaction between iron and CS. The five-coordinate derivative has delta(Fe) = 0.08 mm/s, and the six-coordinate complexes exhibit delta(Fe) = 0.14 to 0.19 mm/s at 4.2 K. The five-coordinate complex shows a large quadrupole splitting (DeltaE(q) = 1.93 mm/s at 4.2 K) which is reduced on coordination of the sixth ligand (DeltaE(q) = 0.42-0.80 mm/s at 4.2 K). Addition of a sixth ligand also leads to a small decrease in the value of nu(CS). Correlations in structural, IR, and M?ssbauer results suggest that the sixth ligand effect is primarily induced by changes in sigma-bonding. The structure of [Fe(OEP)(CS)(CH(3)OH)] is briefly reported. Crystal data: [Fe(OEP)(CS)(1-MeIm)] crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2(1)/n, Z = 4, a = 9.5906(5) A, b = 16.704(4) A, c = 23.1417(6) A, beta = 100.453(7) degrees. [Fe(OEP)(CS)(Py)] crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, Z = 5, a = 13.9073(6) A, b = 16.2624(7) A, c = 22.0709(9) A, alpha = 70.586(1) degrees, beta = 77.242(1) degrees, gamma = 77.959(1) degrees. [Fe(OEP)(CS)(CH(3)OH)] crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, Z = 1, a = 9.0599(5) A, b = 9.4389(5) A, c = 11.0676(6) A, alpha = 90.261(1) degrees, beta = 100.362(1) degrees, gamma = 114.664(1) degrees.     

THE Py SCALE OF SOLVENT POLARITIES. SOLVENT EFFECTS ON THE VIBRONIC FINE STRUCTURE OF PYRENE FLUORESCENCE and EMPIRICAL CORRELATIONS WITH ET and Y VALUES

Abstract— Pyrene fluorescence spectra have been run in 62 solvents of widely differing solvent polarity. As has been noted previously, the intensity ratio of the first (the 0–0 band) and third bands in vibronic fine structure of these spectra are very sensitive to solvent polarity. These I ₁/ I ₃ values, however, are not sensitive to hydrogen bonding aspects of solvent-solute interactions. Correlations are reported with Winstein's Y values and with Dimrotb's E _T values. On this basis the I ₁/ I ₃ values for pyrene fluorescence are suggested as the basis for a new empirical scale of solvent polarity, called the Py scale, which offers certain conveniences over other scales of solvent polarity.     

A novel neutral receptor for selective recognition of H2PO 4 −

A new urea-based receptor was designed to selectively recognize H₂PO₄⁻ among other anions (such as F^-, Cl^-, Br^-, I^-, OH^-, AcO^-) in organic solvent (DMSO) through intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Addition of anions to the receptor caused changes in UV–vis spectrum which provided the first indication of its anion binding ability.

Analysis of financial stock markets through multidimensional scaling based on information measures

In this paper, a novel multidimensional scaling (MDS) based on information measures method is proposed to analyze financial stock markets. In order to examine the effectiveness of this method, we applied it to the classification of two types of artificial series, the logistic map model and the cubic map model, as well as stock time series. Moreover, the traditional MDS using Euclidean dissimilarity is also provided as a reference for comparisons. The results show that the MDS based on information measures can give us more detailed, exact and clearer information on the classification of simulation series and stock time series than the MDS using Euclidean dissimilarity. In addition, the proposed graphical method may also assist in the construction of multivariate econometric models.

The influences of amplified spontaneous emission,crystal temperature and round-trip loss on scaling of CW thin-disk laser

In this paper, a model is built to explore how the parameters (amplified spontaneous emission (ASE), temperature and round-trip loss) influence the output power in a thin-disk laser. It is found that optical efficiency of the disk laser is reduced with the increase of ASE, temperature or round-trip loss. The parameters are optimized to maximize the output power based on our model. We find that it is necessary to balance the need to lower the temperature with the need to control ASE during the optimization process. But the balance becomes more difficult to achieve with the increase of round-trip loss. We conclude that output power of more than 2.6 MW with a single disk can be achieved, but the necessary disk size (more than 0.5 m) is far beyond the actual technical limits. But it is possible to achieve output power of over a hundred kilowatts using a 10 cm disk in the near future.     

The efficient in‐situ reduction and cyclization reaction of aromatic aldehyde, 1,3‐cyclopentanedione (tetronic acid), and nitro‐compound under SnCl2·2H2O‐THF medium

An efficient in‐situ reduction and cyclization reaction for the synthesis of pyrazolo[4,3‐f]quinoline, pyrazolo[3,4‐f]quinoline, and pyrazolo[3,2‐f]quinoline derivatives directly form 5‐nitroindazole, 6‐nitroindazole and 5‐nitroindole in the presence of SnCl₂·2H₂O was reported. Compared to traditional synthetic methods, this approach has the advantages of stable reagents, easy obtaining raw material, and high yields. In this research, SnCl₂·2H₂O is the efficient reducing agent for the in‐situ reduction and cyclization reaction of nitro‐compound. In addition, this process provided an alternative approach for the synthesis of target compounds.
