Influence de la temperature de polymerisation sur le taux de branchement de divers polybenzofurannes obtenus par amorçage cationique

Several polybenzofuranes, obtained by cationic initiation at various temperatures, have been fractionated by preparative G.P.C. The fractions have been studied by various physical methods, mainly osmometry, light scattering, viscometry and G.P.C. These determinations have been made in benzene and the Mark-Houwink relations have been obtained. From the differences observed between these various relations, the gyration radii and the determination of branching indexes, we have found very numerous branches in the samples obtained at the highest temperatures. These branches very probably result from a Friedel-Crafts attack on benzene rings by the carbocations of growing chains. Quantum chemistry determinations are in agreement with this view.

Zusammenfassung Es wird eine sehr empfindliche Reaktion zum Nachweis der Oxyde des Molybdäns, Wolframs und Vanadins angegeben. Sie beruht auf der Abscheidung von braunem Thallium(III)-oxydhydrat, aus ammoniakalischer Lösung von Thallium(I)-salzen auf Zusatz von Wasserstoffsuperoxyd und den oben genannten Oxyden, die hiebei als Katalysatoren wirken.Herrn Prof. Dr.Emil Abel, dem österreichischen Altmeister der Katalysenforschung, zum 80.

Influence of a silyl group on an allylic position. A theoretical approach

Allylsilanes show in certain cases a behaviour towards electrophiles which is opposite to that of its carbon homologues. Theoretical calculations using Dewar's MINDO/3 method performed on 3-methyl 3-butenyl trimethylsilane and 2-methyl 2-butene show that geometrical optimization leads to a silicon-allylic carbon bond nearly parallel to the double bond π cloud, and both net atomic charges and HOMO coefficients indicate an inversion between these two substrates.     

Excess molar enthalpy of binary mixtures of hexane+ethyl benzene, <Emphasis Type="Italic">o</Emphasis>-xylene, <Emphasis Type="Italic">m</Emphasis>-xylene and <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-xylene at 298.15 K

Summary This paper reports excess molar enthalpies of the binary systems hexane+ethyl benzene, hexane+o-xylene, hexane+m-xylene and hexane+p-xylene at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure, over the whole composition range. The data was measured directly using a Calvet microcalorimeter. The excess magnitude was correlated to a Redlich-Kister type equation for each mixture. Also, we will discuss the results for the four mixtures studied here and by comparison with the same binary systems but containing propyl propanoate as first component. Finally, we will correlate our results with the Nitta-Chao and the three UNIFAC theoretical approximations.     

Untersuchungen zur 3-Phononenabsorption in partiell kristallinen Polymeren

Zusammenfassung In dieser Arbeit wird die Dreiphononenabsorption in Polymeren, die den Hauptanteil an den dielektrischen Verlusten im Millimeterwellengebiet stellt, theoretisch und experimentell untersucht. Aus der Störungsrechnung bis zur 2. Ordnung wird die Temperaturabhängigkeit der Absorption abgeschätzt. Damit ist eine befriedigende Deutung des gesamten Temperaturverlaufs der dielektrischen Verlust-Kurven möglich. Im Hochtemperaturbereich läßt sich die Mehrphononenabsorption eindeutig gegenüber restlichen Relaxationsprozessen abgrenzen. Im Tieftemperaturgebiet konnte erstmals auch für das Millimeterwellengebiet ein temperaturunabhängiger Bestandteil fehlordnungsinduzierter Einphononenabsorption nachgewiesen werden. Im Übergangsbereich durchlaufen die Absorptionskurven einen Wendepunkt bei einer charakteristischen TemperaturT ₀, die dem Schwerpunkt der am Absorptionsprozeß beteiligten Phononenfrequenzen entspricht. Daraus konnten in Übereinstimmung mit dem Experiment die Frequenzen der niedrigsten optisch aktiven Phononen für die verschiedenen Polymeren abgeschätzt werden.

Summary The 3-phonon absorption in polymers, which gives the main contribution to their dielectric loss in the microwave region, is theoretically and experimentally investigated. Perturbation theory up to the second order is used for the evaluation of its temperature dependence. The theoretical results allow an interpretation of the total absorption-temperature-curves: In the high temperature region 3-phonon absorption can be distinguished from residual relaxation losses (above the glass temperature). In the low temperature region the existence of a low frequency tail of temperature independent disorderinduced one-phonon absorption became evident. At intermediate temperatures (50–150°K) the curves show an inflexion point or plateau at a characteristic temperatureT ₀, which according toT ₀= ⁰, corresponds to the frequencies of those phonons, that mainly contribute to the multiphonon absorption. The plateau gives, in good agreement with the experiment, the frequencies of the lowest optically active phonons in the various polymers.

Structure des savons alcalins

Summary This is a systematic X-ray diffraction study of the structure of the mesomorphic phases occurring with potassium soaps ranging from C₈ to C₂₂.Four types of structure have been identified. The first is lamellar with both polar groups and paraffin chains in the crystalline state. The second is also lamellar, but with both polar groups and paraffin chains in the liquid state. The third corresponds to the localization of indefinitely long ribbons on a two-dimensional oblique lattice; polar groups are crystalline and paraffin chains desorganized. The fourth corresponds to the localization of discs on a three-dimensionnalB-faces centered orthorhombic lattice; polar groups are crystalline and paraffin chains disorganized.The structural parameters and the polymorphism of the polar groups have been discussed.

Zusammenfassung Wir beschreiben hier eine systematische Röntgenstrahlendiffraktionsforschung der Struktur der mesomorphen Phasen von Kalium Seifen von C₈ bis C₂₂.Vier Strukturtypen wurden gefunden. Die erste Struktur ist lamellar; beides, die polaren Gruppen und die Paraffinketten sind kristallisiert. Die zweite Struktur ist auch lamellar; aber in diesem Falle sind beides, die polaren Gruppen und Paraffinketten geschmolzen. Die dritte Struktur entspricht einer Lokalisation von Seifenbändern in einem zweidimensionalen monoklinen Gitter; die polaren Gruppen sind kristallisiert und die Paraffinketten geschmolzen. Die vierte Struktur entspricht einer Lokalisation von Seifenscheiben in einemB-flächenzentrierten orthorhombischen Raumgitter; die Polargruppen sind kristallisiert und die Paraffinketten geschmolzen.Wir haben aus den experimentellen Resultaten einige Schlußfolgerungen gezogen.

     

Dampfdruck- und Leitfähigkeitsuntersuchungen der Ionensolvatation in Amiden

The solvating properties of formamide, N-methylformamide, dimethylformamide, N-ethylformamide and diethylformamide have been investigated by means of vapour pressure and conductivity measurements. For the salts and ions, resp. average solvation numbers have been calculated from vapour pressure data and limiting ionic conductances. The solvation numbers are used for a discussion of the influence of N-substituents on the solvating properties of the amides.

Calculation of molecular geometries by SCF perturbation theory

An SCF perturbation method for investigating the effects of an arbitrary change in nuclear configuration on the electronic structure of a molecule is reported. Illustrative calculations for CO₂ and CH₃OH are presented. It is found that, when taken to second order, the error in the calculated change in energy which results from a change in nuclear configuration is typically in the range of 0.1 to 7%.     

PFGSE-NMR study of the self-diffusion of sucrose fatty acid monoesters in water

The micellization of pure monosubstituted sucrose fatty acid esters in water, namely sucrose octanoate, sucrose decanoate, sucrose laurate, sucrose dodec-5-cis-enoate, sucrose myristate, and sucrose palmitate, has been investigated by means of two NMR methods, pulsed field gradient spin-echo NMR (PFGSE-NMR), giving access to the self-diffusion coefficients of free molecules and micelles in solution, and the ERETIC method (electronic reference to access in vivo concentrations) for the measurement of concentrations by external calibration of a synthetic NMR signal. The early micellar regions and, when possible, the premicellar regions were investigated. By this method, we obtained the hydrodynamic radii of micelles, displaying a linear progression in relation to the chain length and an accurate determination of critical micellar concentration (CMC) for each sucrose ester. The effect of the regiochemistry of fatty chain grafting has been investigated, showing special behavior for 1'-O-sucrose palmitate.
