Untersuchungen an Systemen aus Salzen und gemischten Lösungsmitteln. VI. Das Verhalten des reziproken Salzpaares Na2SO4 + 2 KCl ⇌ K2SO4+2 NaCl in Methanol-Wasser-Mischungen

The solubility isotherms of the system Na₂SO₄? K₂SO₄? CH₃OH? H₂O at 25,40 and 55°C and the solubilities in the system of the metathetic salt reaction Na₂SO₄+ + 2KCl ? K₂SO₄ + 2NaCl in methanol-water mixtures at 10 and 25°C have been determined and the nature of the solid phases established. The addition of methanol causes an enlargement of the sulphatic existence fields. A flow sheet for the industrial application of the results is communicated.     

Structure of the products of the cyclization in acetic anhydride of β-(2-carboxy-5-chlorophenylamino) propionic acid and its nitrile

-(2-Carboxy-5-chlorophenylamino)propionic acid cyclizes in acetic anhydride to form 4-chloro-2-(2,4-dioxopiperidino)benzoic acid, which subsequently undergoes conversion into its lactone. Under the same conditions, -[acetyl(2-carboxy-5-chlorophenyl)amino]-propionitrile forms 7-chloro-1--cyanoethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-2,4-dione. The structures of the compounds obtained were confirmed by their IR, UV, and PMR spectra. An evaluation of the stability of the ketonic and enolic forms of the compounds obtained on the basis of calculations by Hückel's method has been made.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, Vol. 6, No. 7, pp. 879–884, July, 1970.

Crystal chemistry of AB2X4 (X = S,Se, Te) compounds

An attempt is made to correlate the crystal structures of ternary chalcogenides of composition AB₂X₄ with the cationic radius ratio and a pseudo force-constant involving their electronegativities. The resultant diagram adequately resolves structures based on the types K₂SO₄, monoclinic, olivine, MnY₂S₄, Th₃P₄, and CaFe₂O₄ but structure types based on spinel, Cr₃Se₄, and Ag₂HgI₄ are not resolved. Crystal chemical arguments are used to explain these observations and to advance reasons for the successes and failures of this method for predicting structure types.
