Calculations on electric-field-induced shifts in ultraviolet absorption spectra: The significance of doubly excited configurations

Calculations on the cation-induced shifts in the UV spectrum of the terphenyl mononegative ion suggest that the spectra of the ions of alternant hydrocarbons, as compared with those of the molecules, are rather insensitive to electric field perturbations. This feature only shows up if one includes enough (doubly) excited configurations to allow for the polarization of the excited states involved in the optical transitions.

Zusammenfassung Berechnungen über die von Kationen verursachten Verschiebungen im UV-Spektrum des mononegativen Terphenylions deuten darauf hin, daß die Spektren der Ionen alternierender Kohlenwasserstoffe im Vergleich zu denen der Molekeln gegen vom elektrischen Feld hervorgerufene Störungen ziemlich unempfindlich sind. Dies kommt nur dann zum Ausdruck, wenn man in den Berechnungen genügend (doppelt) angeregte Konfigurationen mit einbezieht, um auch die Polarisation der an den optischen Übergängen beteiligten Anregungszustände zu erfassen.

Résumé Des calculs sur les déplacements — provoqués par le cation — dans le spectre ultraviolet de l'ion mononégatif de terphényle indiquent que les spectres des ions d'hydrocarbures alternants, à côté de ceux des molécules, sont assez insensibles aux perturbations du champ électrique. On ne trouve ce résultat que dans le cas où l'on introduit un nombre suffisant de configurations excitées (doublement) pour tenir compte de la polarisation des états excités liés aux transitions optiques.

     

1,3,6-Triphenyl-6-phenylazo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyridazin

Base induced 1.4-elimination of pyridine·HI from 1-(2-phenyl-2-phenylhydrazono-ethyl)-pyridinium iodide (6) yields 1.3.6-triphenyl-6-phenylazo-1.4.5.6-tetrahydropyridazine (8) the (4+2)-cyclodimer of the intermediate 1-phenyl-1-phenylazoethylene (7).8 can also be obtained by intramolecular oxidative cyclisation (with KMnO₄) of 1.4-diphenylbutane-1.4-dione bisphenylhydrazone (12). Spectroscopic data (ms,¹H-nmr, uv and ir/Raman) confirm the structure of8.     

Studium des gegenseitigen Einflusses der Bindungen in Thiocyanat-Kupfer(II)-Komplexen mit Methyl- und Dimethylpyridinen mittels Infrarotspektroskopie

The infrared spectra of thiocyanato-copper(II) complexes of the type Cu(NCS)₂ L ₂ with all isomeric picolines and lutidines (L) as well as those of the type Cu(NCS)₂ L ₃ withL=3- and 4-picoline, 3,4- and 3,5-lutidine were measured. The behaviour of the (CN) stretching vibrations of the Cu(NCS)₂ L ₂ complexes led to conclusions on the different kind of coordination of the NCS groups in dependence on the ligandL. The mutually conditioned strength of the Cu–NCS and Cu–N(L) bonds in the equatorial plane, especially in the presence of ligandsL with the steric effect, was determined from the frequency shift of the Cu–NCS and Cu–N(L) stretching vibrations with regard to the vibrations for Cu(NCS)₂(pyridine)₂.

Die Massenspektren der Pyrrolidide einiger aliphatisch-alicyclischer Carbonsäuren

The mass spectra of the pyrrolidides of some long-chain carboxylic acids with alicyclic residues attached to their ω-end are discussed and compared with the spectra of the corresponding esters. Fragmentation triggered by the pyrrolidide group generates a series of peaks, which clearly exhibits the size and the structure of the carbon chain.

Non relativistic continuum wave functions for two coulomb centres

We give the continuum wave function solutions to the Schrödinger equation for an electron moving field of two point nuclei, as an expansion in terms of one centre Coulomb wave functions in a prolate elliptical coordinate system. These solutions may be chosen to have a convenient asymptotic behaviour, and tend to the conventional solutions of the Helmholtz equation in the limit that the nuclear charge goes to zero. In symmetric systems, where both nuclei have the same charge the angular wave functions are found to be identical with those occurring in the free case, and the expansion coefficients for the corresponding radial solutions are given for selected values of electron energy and nuclear separation.[/p]     

X-ray diffraction and morphology of crystalline,hard, elastic materials

Summary X-ray diffraction and electron microscopic results on several crystalline polymers which demonstrate elastic properties (polypropylene, Celcon^®, poly-4-methyl-pentene) are reported. Photographic small angle X-ray diffraction techniques provided considerable qualitative information, concerning the morphological features of these elastic materials both as extruded, annealed and during extension. Lamellar thickness, thickness distribution and perfection of lamellae could be estimated. Lateral order features and orientation of the lamellar structures were obtainable from the sharpness and length of the equatorial wide angle diffraction arcs. Electron microscopic results essentially confirm the morphological features postulated on the basis of the X-ray results. These morphological features are discussed in terms of a general structural model which appears consistent with the mechanical properties of these materials.

Zusammenfassung Röntgenbeugung und elektronenmikroskopische Daten von einigen kristallinen Polymerprodukten mit elastischen Eigenschaften (Polypropylen, Celcon, Poly-4-methylpenten) werden berichtet. Die photographische Röntgen-Kleinwinkelmethode liefert wichtige qualitative Messungen der morphologischen Struktur dieser elastischen Materialien in den Zuständen sowohl wie hergestellt als auch nach Tempern und während des Dehnungsprozesses. Die Dicke der Lamellen, ihre Dikkenverteilung und die Güte der Lamellen konnten abgeschätzt werden. Die laterale Ordnung und die Orientierung der Lamellen kann aus Weitwinkelbeugungsdaten abgeleitet werden. Die Elektronenmikroskopie bestätigt die Morphologie, die aus Röntgendaten folgt. Ein allgemeines Strukturmodel dieser Morphologie, das im Einklang mit den mechanischen Eigenschaften dieser Produkte steht, wird diskutiert.

     

Relations between subclasses of greedoids

In previous papers many different classes and constructions of greedoids have been defined and studied. This paper documents inclusion relations among all subclasses of greedoids which are known so far. It will be shown that all inclusion relations are proper and that all but one subclasses of interval greedoids are distinct.

Lösungsmitteleinfluß auf das Redoxverhalten von Bistriphenylphosphinquecksilber(II)-perchlorat

The influence of solvents on the redox behaviour of bistriphenylphosphinomercury perchlorate has been investigated by polarographic, voltammetric and potentiometric methods. The electrode process was found to be reversible in acetonitrile, propylene carbonate, N,N-dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide. An irreversible process was observed in nitromethane employing the dropping mercury electrode as well as in N,N-dimethylthioformamide and N-methyl-2-thiopyrrolidinone employing the rotating platinum electrode. Half wave potentials and diffusion coefficients have been measured. A linear relationship between theE _1/2 and the donor number (DN) of the solvent has been found for the reversible electrode reactions. Ligand replacement occurs in N,N-dimethylthioformamide and N-methyl-2-thiopyrrolidinone.
