Syntheses of Some 3—[1′（1′H）—Substituent—pyrazol—5′—yl] benzo [5,6] coumarins

3-[1′(1′H)-Substituent-pyrazol-5′-yl]benzo[5,6]coumarins and 3-(1′,2′-oxazol-5′-yl)benzo[5,6]coumarin were prepared via condensation of 3-(2′-formyl-1′-chlorovinyl)benzo[5,6] coumarin with hydrazine derivatives or hydroxylamine.Reaction of 3-[1′(1′H)-pyrazol-5′-yl]benzo[5,6]coumarin with alkyl halides,olefinic compunds or acid chlorides are described.     

N‐(Ferrocenecarbonyl)‐N′‐(quinolin‐8‐yl)thio­urea

In the title compound, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₁₆H₁₂N₃OS)], the 8‐am­inoquinoline and acyl­thio­urea moieties are almost planar. There are two perpendicular arrangements of the mol­ecules in the crystal with slightly different conformations. The two cyclo­penta­dienyl rings in each mol­ecule are parallel and eclipsed.     

Low temperature pressure broadening of NH3 by D2

We report experimentally measured cross sections for pressure broadening of ammonia inversion transitions by J=0, ortho-D2 at temperatures of 18-40 K. These measurements were made in a quasiequilibrium cell using the collisional cooling technique. Cross sections for broadening of the metastable (J,K)=(1, 1), (2, 2) and (3, 3) inversion transitions ranged from 67.5 A2 for (1, 1) at 20.0 K to 100.1 A2 for (3, 3) at 25.0 K. The J=0, ortho-D2 cross sections were found to be consistently larger than previously measured cross sections for low temperature broadening of NH3 by both He and H2.

Transition Metal Chemistry - The kinetics of the silver(I) ion catalysed reduction of peroxodisulphate by 12-tungstocobaltate(II) anion in aqueous HC1O4 has been studied. Although the reaction in...     

Ternary complexes of palladium(II) and selected amines

Summary The formation and equilibria of the binary and ternary palladium(II) complexes of diethylenetriamine (dien) with other selected amines have been investigated. The results of pH titration measurements allowed the calculation of equilibrium constants, characteristic for the binary and ternary complexes formed. The concentration distribution of various complex species was evaluated and the chelation mode ascertained by conductivity measurements.     

Ionization of some derivatives of benzamide, oxamide and malonamide in DMF-water mixture

The ionization of six compounds of bis-phenolic amides was studied spectrophotochemically in DMF-water mixture. The compounds showed two pK_a values in the range of 5.97-7.32 for pK_a1 and 7.61-8.44 for pK_a2. The obtained values of K_a were normalized using the distribution diagrams of the different species and found to be in the range of 5.81-7.42 for pK_a1 and 7.48-8.27 for pK_a2.     

Spectrophotometric assay of retinol via charge-transfer complexes

Simple and sensitive spectrophotometric methods for the assay of retinol have been presented. The first method was based on the reaction of retinol with iodine to give a molecular charge-transfer complex, the retinol acting as n-donor and iodine as -electron acceptor. The second method depends on the formation of a highly coloured stable radical anion between retinol and 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ as a -electron acceptor. The molecular ratios of the reactants in the complexes have been established and the experimental conditions leading to maximum charge-transfer bands were also studied. Beer's law is obeyed over the retinol concentration range 2.5–26 µg/ml. The proposed procedures have been applied successfully to the analysis of drug formulation. The average recovery and average standard deviation was 99.99 ±1.13% with retinol-iodine and 100.001 ± 1.31% with retinol-TCNQ. A kinetic study was performed by heating retinol at 50°C for different periods of time, the result obtained by plotting log c against time indicates that thermal decomposition of retinol is of first order. The results obtained by both methods were in good agreement with those obtained by the official method. The developed procedures were found to be simple, accurate and precise and can be used for the determination of retinol in presence of its degradation products.     

Thermal properties of some compositions in the chalcogenide system Sb40Te60-xSex

The thermal diffusivities, specific heats and thermal conductivities of the binary compositions Sb₄₀Te₆₀ and Sb₄₀Se₆₀ and the ternary composition Sb₄₀Te₃₀Se₃₀ were measured in the range 320 to 500 K. It was found that the environmental temperature, the content of Se in the composition and the conditions of measurements are decisive factors greatly influencing both the values and the behaviour ot the thermal parameters, and the mechanisms of thermal transport. Although the tested compositions exhibit semiconducting behaviour, the free charge carrier component of the thermal conductivity was so small as to be negligible. Thus, it could be concluded that the observed thermal conductivity is attributable to both photon and phonon mechanisms.

Zusammenfassung Im Temperaturbereich 320–500 K wurde das Temperaturleitvermögen, die spezifische Wärme und die Wärmeleitfähigkeit der binären Kompositionen Sb₄₀Te₆₀ bzw. Sb₄₀Se₆₀ und der ternären Komposition Sb₄₀Te₃₀Se₃₀ untersucht. Man fand, daß die Umgebungstemperatur, der Se-Gehalt der Kompositionen und die Meßbedingungen entscheidende Faktoren sind, welche sowohl Wert als auch Verhalten der thermischen Parameter, weiterhin den Mechanismus des Wärmetransportes beeinflussen. Obwohl die untersuchten Kompositionen Halbleiterverhalten zeigten, war die freie Ladungsträgerkomponente der Wärmeleitfähigkeit so gering, daß sie vernachlässigt werden konnte. Somit konnte darauf geschlossen werden, daß die beobachtete Wärmeleitfähigkeit sowohl Photonen- als auch Phononenmechanismen zugeschrieben werden kann.

     

Super spline spaces of smoothnessr and degreed≥3r+2

The problem of computing the dimension of spaces of splines whose elements are piecewise polynomials of degreed withr continuous derivatives globally has attracted a great deal of attention recently. We contribute to this theory by obtaining dimension formulae for certain spaces of super splines, including the case where varying amounts of additional smoothness is enforced at each vertex. We also explicitly construct minimally supported bases for the spaces. The main tool is the Bernstein-Bézier method.Communicated by Klaus Höllig.     

Reaction Mechanisms of Strontium Ferrites Synthesis

The reactions between strontium and iron nitrates have been studied in an open atmosphere system using three different molar ratios, 1:1 (I), 1:2 (II) and 2:1 (III) at different temperatures as pointed out from the DTA data. The reaction mechanism was discussed based on the chemical composition characterized by means of thermal analysis, X‐ray diffraction patterns, infrared spectra and magnetic susceptibility. It was found that the reaction products depend on both temperature of reaction and the ratio between reactants. The reaction products were found to be composed of a variety of iron compounds that possess different valences: SrFeO_2.86, SrFeO_2.97, SrFe₂O₄, SrFe₁₂O₁₉, Sr₂Fe₂O₅ and Sr₇Fe₁₀O₂₂ in addition to some accessory reaction products namely α‐Fe₂O₃ and FeO(OH).
