A sum rule approach to collective spin modes in paramagnetic clusters,cavities and shells

We study spin collective modes in paramagnetic systems using a sum rule approach. We give a simple and analytical expression for the static magnetic polarizability of finite size systems in terms of their radii and of the magnetic susceptibility of a uniform system. A systematics for the mean excitation energy of spin modes in clusters and shells is given. In metal spheres, the hydrodynamical model is solved and compared with the sum rule approach. An estimate for the mean excitation energy of the spin dipole collective state in fullerene is given.     

Synthesis of 6-arylspiro[tetrahydropyran-3,1′-cyclobutane]-2,4-diones

Methyl 1-(2-bromo-2-methyl-1-oxopropyl)-, 1-(1-bromocyclopentylcarbonyl)-, and 1-(1-bromocyclohexylcarbonyl) cyclobutanecarboxylates reacted with zinc and aromatic aldehydes to give, respectively, 7-aryl-2,2-dimethyl-6-oxaspiro[3.5]nonane-5,9-diones, 11-aryl-12-oxadispiro[3.1.4.3]tridecane-5,13-diones, and 12-aryl-13-oxadispiro[3.1.5.3]tetradecane-5,14-diones.     

Extractive substances formed from buckwheat grain production waste

Properties of liquid and dry extracts produced in treatment of buckwheat fruit shells (husk) and straw with water or an acid solution were studied. The conditions of pigment concentration from aqueous extracts by ultrafiltration were determined.     

Photosensitivity of holographic recording media based on films of polymer compositions with cadmium sulfide nanoparticles

The effect of doping with CdS nanoparticles of recording medium films for the thermoplastic holographic recording process, which are based on photosemiconductors (oligomers and cooligomers of glycidylcarbazole) and a dielectric (a styrene copolymer with octyl methacrylate) containing a photoconductivity sensitizer, on their photosensitivity was studied. The enhancement of photosensitivity of films by doping with nanoparticles is associated with the appearance of an additional channel for transport of electrons generated from sensitizer molecules. A difference in informational properties between the oligomer and the polymer films was revealed.     

X-ray crystallographic investigation of the adduct of 1-demethylamino-2-(4-bromophenyl-2H-isoindole with N-phenylmalemide

An unusual path for the reaction of 2-aryl-1-dimethylamino-2H-isoindoles with N-R-maleimides, leading to the imides of l,2-dihydronaphthalene-2,3-dicarboxylic adds, was established by x-ray crystallographic analysis.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 614–618, May, 1992     

Mechanism of the Reaction of Xenon Tetraoxide with Hydrogen: A Photochemical Reaction

The dependence of the rate of a photochemical reaction of XeO₄with H₂on the concentrations of H₂and the diluent gases He and CO₂is studied at room temperature. The results are compared with the data for the dark reaction. A mechanism with the elementary energetic branched-chain reaction OH (v) + XeO₄OH + O + XeO₃is proposed to explain the results of the study.
