Mass spectra of arylalkylpyridines

The basic principles of the mass-spectral fragmentation of arylalkylpyridines that contain substituents in various positions were established. The principle ions that can be used in Chromatographic mass-fragmentographic analysis in the study of liquid-crystal compositions were determined for each specific case.Communication 1 of the series Mass spectra of liquid crystalsTranslated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1509–1513, November, 1987.     

Force fields and vibrational spectra of M2O and MOH (M = Li,Na) molecules according to data from nonempirical MO-LCAO-SCF calculations

The geometric structure, force fields, and vibrational spectra of M₂O and MOH (M=Li, Na) molecules have been investigated. The size of the d basis on the oxygen atom has a significant influence only on the frequency of the deformation vibration ₃. Experimentally unknown constants of the molecules considered have been evaluated.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimental'naya Khimiya, Vol. 22, No. 6, pp. 724–728, November–December, 1986.     

Influence of the crystallinity of pentasil-type zeolites on their acidity

The acid properties of intermediate products in crystallization of pentasil-type zeolites have been investigated using programmed thermal desorption of ammonia and adsorption of pyridine. It was found that acidity increases with increasing crystallinity due to proton-donor centers. A correlation was established between this change in acidity and methanol TPSR data.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Éksperimental'naya Khimiya, Vol. 31, No. 1, pp. 48–51, January–February, 1995.     

Thermodynamics of condensation of phthalonitrile with m-phenylenediamine

Conclusions The reaction of phthalonitrile condensation with m-phenylenediamine is thermodynamically allowed at temperatures from 250° to 500°K, and its equilibrium is almost completely shifted toward the formation of the macroheterocycle.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 4, pp. 779–787, April, 1984.

Synthesis and characterization of polymerizable bisphthalonitrile monomers

The reactions of 4-aminophthalonitrile (APN) with 3,3′,4,4′-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPTDA), and with 1,2,3,4-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PMDA) have been studied to optimize the conditions for the synthesis of monomeric thermosetting bisphthalonitrile compound. Suitable procedures for the synthesis of the two monomers are presented. Elemental analyses, IR spectra, dynamic thermogravimetric analyses, differential scanning calorimetry, ¹H-NMR, and mass spectral studies have been used to characterize these compounds. Preliminary observations show that these materials can be polymerized to give high-temperature-resistant materials.
