Molecular intercalates

The paper deals with the relations between host lattices and guest molecules. Several types of interaction of the guest molecules and the host material are explained and some conclusions are made about the arrangement of various guest molecules in the van der Waals' gap.     

Radiation from hot spots orbiting an extreme Reissner-Nordström black hole

The general-relativistic effects of an extreme Reissner-Nordström black hole on the flux of radiation emitted by a hot spot orbiting the hole with a thin accretion disk are investigated. The light curves, the redshift factor, and the solid angle against the spot orbit position are given. The results are then compared with those of a spot orbiting a Schwarzschild black hole.     

Synthesis of new heterocycles of the benzo[a] quinolizine group V. Synthesis of the 1-methylhexahydrobenzo[a] quinolizin-2-ones. Preparation of the cis-junction isomer

The reaction of 3,4-dihydro-6,7-dimethoxyisoquinoline hydrochloride on ethyl vinyl ketone yields two cis and trans benzo[a quinolizinone isomers in variable proportions depending on the pH of the reacting medium. The cis junction isomer can be stabilized and isolated as the β-propionylethylquinolizinium chloride quaternary salt.     

The separation of some Bi- and tervalent cations on zirconium phosphate columns

Summary On small columns filled with the inorganic cation-exchanger zirconium phosphate, Zn²⁺-Cd²⁺ were quantitatively and Ni²⁺-Co²⁺ partly separated. The exchanger was in the NH₄+ form, and 0.5–4N NH₄Cl served as eluent. With the exchanger in the H+ form, U0₂ ²⁺ was separated from bivalent cations and ferric iron by stepwise elution with 0.1, 0.5 and 4N HCl solutions.

Zusammenfassung An kleinen Säulen des anorganischen Kationenaustauschers Zirkoniumphosphat wurden Zn²⁺ und Cd²⁺ quantitativ, Ni²⁺ und Co²⁺ teilweise getrennt. Der Austauscher lag in der NH₄+-Form vor, 0,5-bis 4-n Ammoniumchlorid diente als Eluent. Mit der H+-Form des Austauschers wurde UO₂ ²⁺ von zweiwertigen Kationen und von Fe³⁺ durch schrittweise Elution mit 0,1-, 0,5- und 4-n Salzsäure getrennt.

Résumé On a séparé Zn²⁺-Cd²⁺ quantitativement et Ni²⁺-Co²⁺ partiellement sur de petites colonnes remplies de phosphate de zirconium comme échangeur minéral cationique. L'échangeur se trouvait sous forme NH₄+ et l'on a pris NH₄Cl 0,5-4N comme éluant. Avec l'échangeur sous forme H⁺, on a séparé UO₂ ²⁺ des cations bivalents et de l'ion ferrique par élution graduelle avec des solutions chlorhydriques 0,1, 0,5 et 4N.

     

6-Magnesiated purines: preparation and reaction with aldehydes

[reaction: see text] Halogen-metal exchange reaction of 9-benzyl-6-iodopurine with iPrMgCl in toluene at -80 degrees C proceeds almost quantitatively. Such a purine-derived Grignard reagent reacts selectively with aldehydes in toluene, giving the corresponding alcohols in 25-62% yield, while other functional groups such as ketones, esters, and nitriles do not react under these conditions. The reaction can be extended to protected 6-iodopurine ribonucleoside.     

Solvent extraction of microamounts of strontium from water into nitrobenzene by using cesium dicarbollylcobaltate in the presence of 15-crown-5

Extraction distribution of microamounts of strontium in the water-CsCl-15-crown-5 (15C5,L)-nitrobenzene-cesium dicarbollylcobaltate system has been investigated. The equilibrium data have been explained assuming that the CsL⁺, CsL₂ ⁺ and SrL₂ ²⁺ complexes are extracted into the organic phase. The values of extraction and stability constants of the species in nitrobenzene saturated with water have been determined.
