Thermodynamics of micellar solubilization of various water-insoluble dyes

Summary A linear relation between the free energy of micellar solubilization,G _s ⁰ , and surfactant alkyl chain length is shown. This relation is found to be valid for various water-insoluble dyes in different homologous series of surfactants. It is further shown that the change inG _s ⁰ per added CH₂ group is constant in these various systems, within the experimental accuracy.

Zusammenfassung Es wurde gezeigt, daß zwischen der freien Energie der mizellaren SolubilisierungG _s ⁰ und der Alkylkettenlänge des Tensids eine lineare Beziehung besteht. Diese Beziehung gilt für verschiedene wasserunlösliche Farbstoffe mit verschiedenen homologen Reihen von Tensiden. Es wird weiterhin gezeigt, daß die Änderung vonG _s ⁰ pro CH₂-Gruppe in diesen verschiedenen Systemen innerhalb der experimentellen Fehlergrenze konstant ist.

A new intramolecular cyclisation reaction—I : Novel synthesis of benzo(k,1)thioxanthene-3,4-dicarboxylic anhydride and derived dyestuffs

A new direct synthesis of benzo(k,1)thioxanthene-3,4-dicarboxylic anhydride from 4-nitro-naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylic anhydride and 2-aminobenzenethiol is reported; 4-(2-aminophenylthio) naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylic anhydride and 4-phenylthionaphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylic anhydride are also formed. Similar reaction in presence of amyl nitrite or sodium nitrite results in formation of larger amounts of 4-phenylthionaphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylic anhydride, together with other products arising from the oxidation of 2-aminobenzenethiol; one such product is the new heterocycle 9,10-dithiaphenanthrene. 4-(2-Aminophenylthio)-naphthalene-1,8-dicarboxylic anhydride is rapidly converted by amyl nitrite or sodium nitrite in dimethylformamide into benzo(k,1)thioxanthene-3,4-dicarboxylic anhydride, constituting a novel one-stage intramolecular cyclisation reaction of greater convenience than the conventional two stage Pschorr cyclisation.     

Hetero analogs of alloxazines. 2. Structure and tautomerism of 6,8-dimethyl-7,9-dioxo-5h-6,7,8,9-tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b][4′,5′-e][1,4]thiazines

It is demonstrated by ¹³C NMR spectroscopy that the dipyrimidothiazines that are formed in the reaction of 1,3-dimethyl-5-nitro-6-chlorouracil with 4-R-5-amino-6-mercaptopyrimidines are dipyrimido[4,5-b][4,5-e] [1,4]thiazines. The tautomeric transformations of these compounds were studied.For communication 1, see [1]Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1426–1432, October, 1992.     

Determination of cadmium by atomic-fluorescence and atomic-absorption spectrophotometry

The adaptation of a conventional atomic-absorption/flameemission spectrophotometer to the measurement of atomic-fluorescence in an air-acetylene flame is described. The determination of cadmium on the same instrument by both atomic-fluorescence and absorption shows that, even with a rather simple and inefficient means of exciting and measuring fluorescence, results can be obtained which indicate that the fluorescence technique is considerably more sensitive than atomic-absorbance and is equally free from inter-element interference.     

Non self-consistent field theory

Roothaan's SCF method [2] is reformulated so that two non-SCP methods are developed to solve the eigenequation. The results from these methods can be used as starting eigenfunctions for Roothaan's SCF method.

Synthesis and Molecular and Crystalline Structure of Polyfluoro-1,3-Diazafluorenes

Reactions of 2-amino-3-(1-imino-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)hexafluoro-1H-indene with carboxylic acid anhydrides and chlorides afforded 2-alkyl(aryl)-4-trifluoromethyl-5,6,7,8,9,9-hexafluoro-1,3-diazafluorenes. The molecular and crystalline structure of the products was studied by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. 5,6,7,8,9,9-Hexafluoro-2-phenyl-4-trifluoromethyl-1,3-diazafluorene in crystal gives rise to infinite ladder chains via -stacking interaction between the benzene ring of one molecule and tetrafluorobenzene fragment of the other.     

Synthesis and Structure of Tri-p-tolylantimony Ditosylate

Tri-p-tolylantimony reacts with p-toluenesulfonic acid in the presence of benzoyl peroxide (1 : 2 : 1 molar ratio) in ether to give tri-p-tolylantimony ditosylate in 91% yield. According to X-ray diffraction data, the central antimony atom has the trigonal bipyramidal coordination with the axial location of the tosyl groups. The Sb-O bond lengths are 2.07(2) and 2.17(2) Å; Sb-C bond lengths, 2.08(3), 2.13(3), and 2.13(3) Å; and OSbO bond angle, 175.6(7)°.
