Kinetik der Diazotierung der Chloraniline in methanolischer Chlorwasserstofflösung

The kinetics of the diazotization of o-, m-, p-chloroaniline in 0.005n- to 0.4n-methanolic HCl-solution at 25, 15, 0, ?10 ?20, and ?30°C was invertigated. It was found that the nitrosation reaction (the same as in¹) $$C_6 H_4 ClNH_2 + NOCl \mathop \rightleftharpoons \limits^k C_6 H_4 ClNH_2 NO^ + + Cl^ - $$ is a proceeding advance-back-reaction. The decomposition of C₆H₄ClNH₂NO⁺ by splitting off a proton is the rate determining step. The free activation enthalpies ΔG ^* for the nitrosation reaction, the activation entropies ΔS ^*, the activation enthalpies ΔH ^* and the activation energiesE _a at the given temperatures are calculated. The experimentally found and the calculated velocities are given in Tables 1–6. The equilibrium constants of the o-, m-, p-chloroanilinium ions, and nitrosyl-chloride in methanol are indicated in Table 7, diagram 1. TheK _M values (the ionic products of methanol, extrapolated at infinite dilution) together with theK _A values of Table 7 give theK _B values (p. 2) using the table¹⁰. The ΔG _B values can be calculated using equation ΔG _B = ?RTlnK _B Fig 2 shows the linear dependance of the logarithmus of the ΔG ^* values from the logarithmus of theK _B values.     

Polarisabilites moléculaires et effet diélectrique de milieu à l'état liquide. Étude théorique de la molécule d'eau et de ses diméres

The model of Onsager in which a polar molecule undergoes a reaction field due to the polarization of the molecular surroundings is used to evaluate by a S.C.F. calculation (CNDO/2 approximation) the modifications of a molecular structure in the liquid state.Application to water molecule and to three polar dimers for values of the dielectric constant varying between 3 and 78, shows that most of geometric parameters and dipoles moments vary of few per cent when the molecule is inserted in a liquid. In the liquid state dipole moments do not depend very much on the dielectric constant but energies and relative stabilities of isomers are strongly dependent on the medium.[/p]

     

Fluordiazadiphosphetidine, 3. Mitt.: Die thermische Behandlung von 2,2,2,4,4,4-Hexafluoro-1,3-dimethyl-1,3,2,4-diazadiphosphetidin unter Druck in Gegenwart von Phosphor(V)fluorid und Alkalimetallfluoriden

Prolonged heating of (CH₃NPF₃)₂ in a sealed tube at 120°C yields (CH₃N)₄P₃F₇ and PF₅. Under the experimental conditions these compounds react to (CH₃N)₄P₃F₆ ⁺PF₆ ^–. Reaction of (CH₃NPF₃)₂ in the presence of PF₅ leads to a marked decrease in the formation of the ionic compound. The influence of the fluoride donating saltsMF (M=Li, Na, K, Cs) is investigated.

Emissive or Nonemissive? A Theoretical Analysis of the Phosphorescence Efficiencies of Cyclometalated Platinum(II) Complexes

We herein report a theoretical analysis based on a density functional theory/time‐dependent density functional theory (DFT/TDDFT) approach to understand the different phosphorescence efficiencies of a family of cyclometalated platinum(II) complexes: [Pt(NCN)Cl] ( 1 ; NCN=1,3‐bis(2‐pyridyl)phenyl^?), [Pt(CNN)Cl] ( 2 ; CNN=6‐phenyl‐2,2′‐bipyridyl^?), [Pt(CNC)(CNPh)] ( 3 ; CNC=2,6‐diphenylpyridyl^2?), [Pt(R‐CNN)Cl] ( 4 ; R‐CNN=3‐(6′‐(2′′‐naphthyl)‐2′‐pyridyl)isoquinolinyl^?), and [Pt(R‐CNC)(CNPh)] ( 5 ; R‐CNC=2,6‐bis(2′‐naphthyl)pyridyl^2?). By considering both the spin–orbit coupling (SOC) and the electronic structures of these complexes at their respective optimized singlet ground (S₀) and first triplet ( ) excited states, we were able to rationalize the experimental findings that 1) 1 is a strong emitter while its isomer 2 is only weakly emissive in CH₂Cl₂ solution at room temperature; 2) although the cyclometalated ligand of 3 has a higher ligand‐field strength than that of 1 , 3 is nonemissive in CH₂Cl₂ solution at 298 K; and 3) extension of π conjugation at the lateral aryl rings of the cyclometalated ligands of 2 and 3 to give 4 and 5 , respectively, leads to increased emission quantum yields under the same conditions. We found that Jahn–Teller and pseudo‐Jahn–Teller effects are operative in complexes 2 and 3 , respectively, on going from the optimized S₀ ground state to the optimized excited state, and thus lead to large excited‐state structural distortions and hence fast nonradiative decay. Furthermore, a strong‐field ligand may push the two different occupied d orbitals so far apart that the SOC effect is small and the radiative decay rate is slow. This work is an example of electronic‐structure‐driven tuning of the phosphorescence efficiency, and the DFT/TDDFT approach is demonstrated to be a versatile tool for the design of phosphorescent materials with target characteristics.     

IR laser ablative degradation of poly(phenylene ether-sulfone): Deposition of films containing ether, sulfone, sulfoxide and sulfide groups

Pulsed infrared laser-induced ablation of poly(1,4-phenylene ether-sulfone) (PES) results in the extrusion of SO₂, CO and hydrocarbon molecules and allows deposition of dark solid paramagnetic carbonaceous films that were analysed by FTIR, UV, XP, Raman and EPR spectroscopy and by electron microscopy and revealed as poor in S and containing CO, SO₂, -SO- and C-S-C units. The films show pronounced conjugation of sp²-C atoms and their EPR spectra are sensitive function of the presence of molecular oxygen. The laser process differs from the conventional pyrolysis of PES which yields SO₂ and phenol as major volatile products and a carbonaceous char.
