N,N-dimethyl-N-(methylferrocenyl)amine as a bifunctional component of initiating systems for free-radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate

The specific features of free-radical polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of a new initiating system, benzoyl peroxide-N,N-dimethyl-N-(methylferrocenyl)amine, are studied. Mutual influence of the ferrocene and amino groups on the kinetic parameters of polymerization and on the microstructure of the resulting polymers is revealed. The polymer formed in the presence of this initiating system is shown to have a predominantly syndiotactic structure.     

Diels—Alder reaction. Effect of internal and external factors on the reactivity of diene—dienophile systems

The key factors influencing the Diels—Alder reaction rate at ambient and elevated pressures were elucidated using data on the reactivity of various diene—dienophile systems in usual and Lewis acid-catalyzed Diels—Alder reactions, the reaction enthalpy, complex formation, dissolution, and solvation, and the donor-acceptor properties of the reactants. It was found that taking account of both the orbital interaction energy and the balance of bond rupture and formation energies allows correct prediction of the reaction rate in the absence or in the presence of Lewis acids.     

Determination of Aluminum and Beryllium by Diffuse Reflectance Spectrometry with the Use of Chromaticity Functions

Immobilized Eriochrome Cyanine R was used for the direct determination of trace aluminum and beryllium by diffuse reflectance spectrometry. Anion exchanger AV-17, silica gel Silochrom C-120, Chromaton N-Super, octadecyl silica gel, and cellulose were examined as supports. Optimal sorption conditions were found. The dependence of chromaticity functions (chromaticity coordinates, lightness, color saturation, yellowness, and whiteness) on different factors was studied. Advantages of the use of chromaticity functions rather then the diffuse reflectance coefficient were demonstrated. A method is developed for the separate determination of aluminum and beryllium using cellulose as the support; the method was used for the analysis of real samples and tested with standard samples. When solution samples of 50 and 100 mL were used, the determination limit was 0.004 g/mL for aluminum and 0.0002 g/mL for beryllium.     

Preparation and crystal structure of the La2Ni12P5 and isotypic ternary lanthanoid—Nickel phosphides

The new ternary phosphide La₂Ni₁₂P₅ has been prepared by direct arc melting of the components as pure metals and red phosphorus. The crystal structure has been determined using X-ray single crystal diffraction data. The compound exhibits a new type of crystal structure, P2₁/m with lattice parameters a = 10.911(3), b = 3.696(2), c = 13.174(4) Å, β = 108.02(2)°, V = 505,2(6) ų, Z = 2. Atomic parameters least squares refinement of 116 independent variables (anisotropic approximation for thermal vibrations) employed 1 284 independent I_o(hkl); R_F = 0.0278 and R_W = 0.0287. The crystal structure is characterized by trigonal prismatic arrangement of phosphorus atoms stacking variant of infinite (with phosphorus centered) columns built by metal trigonal prisms ‖ [010]. Two or three such columns are connected through common edges (lanthanum atoms). The compounds RE₂Ni₁₂P₅ (where RE = Ce, Pr, Nd and Eu) display the same with La₂Ni₁₂P₅ crystal structure. Lattice parameters of these compounds have been refined using powder diffraction data.     

Electron spin echo as a tool for investigation of surface structure of finely dispersed fractal solids

The ESE method was successfully used for investigating the texture of the adsorbents and catalysts. Equations were obtained for the kinetics of ESE signal decay due to dipole-dipole interaction between motionless paramagnetic centers distributed uniformly on the fractal surface of solid.

Synthesis of nucleosides of substituted 3-hydroxypyrazoles

N-Glucoside analogs of the antibiotic pyrazofurine were obtained by fusion of 3-hydroxy-4-ethoxycarbonylpyrazole with tetra-O-acetyl-ß-D-ribofuranose in the presence of iodine.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1512–1514, November, 1981.     

New Tricyclic Amides. Synthesis,Structure, and Oxidation with Peroxyphthalic Acid

4-Azatricyclo[5.2.1.0^2,6]dec-8-ene was synthesized and brought into reactions with benzoyl, o-chlorobenzoyl, p-bromobenzoyl, p-, m-, and o-nitrobenzoyl, and bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene-endo-5,endo-6-dicarboximidoacetyl chlorides in chloroform in the presence of pyridine. The tricyclic amides thus obtained were epoxidated with peroxyphthalic acid prepared in situ by reaction of phthalic anhydride with a 35% aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide. The structure of newly synthesized compounds was confirmed by IR and ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Their NMR spectra were compared with those of previously synthesized N-arylsulfonyl-4-azatricyclo[5.2.1.0^2,6]dec-8-enes on the basis of conformational composition of the corresponding p-nitrophenyl-substituted derivatives, which was determined by PM3 semi-empirical quantum-chemical calculations.__________Translated from Zhurnal Organicheskoi Khimii, Vol. 41, No. 6, 2005, pp. 837–845.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by L.

Spectroscopic study of low temperature interactions in metal-organic co-condensates

The results on spectroscopic study of low temperature interactions of metal atoms, small clusters and nanoparticles with different organic and inorganic substances in the temperature range 12-300 K are presented. Complexation and reactions of atoms and clusters of magnesium, samarium and silver with carbon dioxide, ethylene and some mesogenic cyanophenyls were studied by the technique of matrix isolation and low temperature co-condensation of metal and ligand vapors, low temperature UV-Vis, IR- and ESR-spectroscopy in combination with quantum chemistry calculations. It was shown that cryochemical reactions of metal particles of different sizes reflected the system's redundant energy.
