Direkte fluorimetrische Bestimmung von 3,4-Benzpyren im w?\rigen Medium

Zusammenfassung Es wurde eine direkte Bestimmung des 3,4-Benzpyrens in wä\riger Lösung beschrieben, die auf der Löslichkeitserhöhung beruht, die das in Wasser schwer lösliche 3,4-Benzpyren durch Coffein erfährt. Es können so noch 4 ng/ml bei der angegebenen Standardisierung bestimmt werden. Bei der Direktbestimmung des 3,4-Benzpyrens im System Coffein-Wasser ist ein p_H >6,0 einzuhalten, da bei höheren Wasserstoffionenkonzentrationen die Fluorescenzintensität stark abnimmt.

Direct fluorimetric determination of benzo(a)pyrene in aqueous medium

A method for the direct determination of benzo(a)pyrene in aqueous solution is based on the increase of its solubility by coffeine. 4 ng of benzo(a)pyrene/ml can be determined by the procedure described. In this direct determination in the system coffeine-water the p_H has to be adjusted to >6.0, as the fluorescence intensity considerably decreases with higher H⁺ concentrations.

Hydroxybromierung und Methoxybromierung von (Z)-Cycloocten

In addition totrans-2-bromocyclooctanol andtrans-1,2-dibromocyclooctane,cis-4-bromocyclooctanol,cis-1,4-dibromocyclooctane,trans-1,4-dibromocyclooctane, and (Z)-5-bromocyclooctene are obtained, when (Z)-cyclooctene is treated with N-bromosuccinimide in the presence of water. Similarly the methoxybromination of (Z)-cyclooctene gives transanular products.     

Molekulargewichtsbestimmung durch Gelchromatographie von Oligoimidophosphorsäureamiden

Determination of Molecular Weights by Gel Chromatography of Oligoimidoamides of Phosphoric Acid. Oligoimidoamides of phosphoric acid were eluted with nonionic water on a Sephadex LH-20 column. The measured distribution coefficient of the oligoimidoamides of phosphoric acid was independent of sample concentration and pH of the eluent. Andrews equation was obeyed: a linear relation exist between elution volume and logarithm of molecular weight both cyclic and acyclic oligoimidoamides of phosphoric acid.     

Der Gaskomplex MnAlF5 und sein Einfluß auf die sublimative Reinigung von AlF3

The Gas Complex MnAlF₅ and its Influence on the Purification of AlF₃ by Sublimation The gas complex MnAlF₅ has been determined mass spectroscopically by the ions MnAlF₅⁺ and MnAlF₄⁺. The gas complex MnAlF₅ is formed above 973 K by heating up mixtures of AlF₃/MnF₂ or AlF₃ · 3 H₂O endowed with Mn²⁺ or by heating up solid MnAlF₅ too. At 1 008 K the enthalpie of dissociation is 197 kJ/mole. The equilibrium structures of the high spin molecule MnAlF₅ (S = 5/2) were examined with ab initio calculations at the HF-level by comlete gradient optimizing. Two minimum structures were found on the potential energy surface. A bidentate fluorine bridged structure was found to be the most stable at the HF-level. Vibrational frequencies and thermodynamic functions of complex formation were estimated for both minimum structures. The importance of the formation of the gas complex for the separation of MnF₂ and AlF₃ by sublimation is discussed.     

Thermodynamic and kinetic data for adduct formation, cis-trans isomerization and redox reactions of ML4 complexes: a case study with rhodium- and iridium-tropp complexes in d8, d9 and d10 valence electron configurations (tropp=dibenzotropylidene phosphanes)

The formation of adducts of the square-planar 16-electron complexes trans-[M(tropp(ph))(2)](+) and cis-[M(tropp(ph))(2)](+) (M=Rh, Ir; tropp(Ph)=5-diphenylphosphanyldibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene) with acetonitrile (acn) and Cl(-), and the redox chemistry of these complexes was investigated by various physical methods (NMR and UV-visible spectroscopy, square-wave voltammetry), in order to obtain some fundamental thermodynamic and kinetic data for these systems. A trans/cis isomerization cannot be detected for [M(tropp(ph))(2)](+) in non-coordinating solvents. However, both isomers are connected through equilibria of the type trans-[M(tropp(ph))(2)](+)+L<==>[ML(tropp(ph))(2)](n)<==>cis-[M(tropp(ph))(2)](+)+L, involving five-coordinate intermediates [ML(tropp(ph))(2)](n) (L=acn, n=+1; L=Cl(-), n=0). Values for K(d) (K(f)), that is, the dissociation (formation) equilibrium constant, and k(d) (k(f)), that is, the dissociation (formation) rate constant, were obtained. The formation reactions are fast, especially with the trans isomers (k(f)>1x10(5) m(-1) s(-1)). The reaction with the sterically more hindered cis isomers is at least one order of magnitude slower. The stability of the five-coordinate complexes [ML(tropp(ph))(2)](n) increases with Ir>Rh and Cl(-)>acn. The dissociation reaction has a pronounced influence on the square-wave (SW) voltammograms of trans/cis-[Ir(tropp(ph))(2)](+). With the help of the thermodynamic and kinetic data independently determined by other physical means, these reactions could be simulated and allowed the setting up of a reaction sequence. Examination of the data obtained showed that the trans/cis isomerization is a process with a low activation barrier for the four-coordinate 17-electron complexes [M(tropp(ph))(2)](0) and especially that a disproportionation reaction 2 trans/cis-[M(tropp(ph))(2)](0)-->[M(tropp(ph))(2)](+)+[M(tropp(ph))(2)](-) may be sufficiently fast to mask the true reactivity of the paramagnetic species, which are probably less reactive than their diamagnetic equilibrium partners.

Synthesis and Structure of [Bis(trimethylsilylsulfano)methylidene]phosphines Analogous to the phenyl derivative 1a [2] tert-butyl- 1b , mesityl- 1c and methylbis-(trimethylsilyl)phosphine 1 d react with carbon disulfide to give the corresponding [bis(trimethylsilylsulfano)methylidene]phosphines 4 . Only in case of the mesitylphosphine 1 c the intermediate compounds 2 and 3 could be detected by n.m.r. spectroscopic methods; thermally unstable [bis(trimethylsilylsulfano)methylidene]methylphosphine 4 d dimerizes rapidly [1]. [Bis(trimethylsilylsulfano)methylidene]phenylphosphine 4 a crystallizes in the monoclinic centrosymmetric space group P2₁/c with following dimensions of the unit cell determined at ?95 ± 3°C: a = 1386.4(8); b = 1036.0(7); c = 1281.7(8) pm; ß = 101.23(4)°; Z = 4. An X-ray structure determination (R = 0.032) proves the constitution of this compound as already derived from its nmr spectra. Characteristic bond lengths and angles are: P?C 170; P?

New developments in millimeter wave spectroscopy

In the past few years millimeter and submillimeter wave spectroscopy has been the backbone for modern molecular line astronomy. The detection of unstable and high-temperature molecular species in the interstellar environment has stimulated the development of methods of detecting molecular ions, radicals and unstable molecules in the laboratory by means of millimeter wave technology. Some of the recent experimental advances as well as the developments which have occurred in the analysis of high resolution rotational and vibrational spectra with regard to understanding molecular dynamics will be discussed.     

Acyl- und Alkylidenphosphane. XVIII. Monoacetyl- und Diacetylphosphan

Acyl- and Alkylidenephosphines. XVIII. Monoacetyl- and Diacetylphosphine When triacetylphosphine 3a is treated with methanol 4 or benzyl alcohol 6 P? C(O) bonds are cleaved and a mixture of diacetyl- 2a and monoacetylphosphine 1a is formed. The thermally labile phosphine 1a decomposes completely within a few hours at +20°C; but 2a also reacts slowly within days to give triacetylphosphine 3a and further unknown compounds. As it is found by nmr-spectroscopic studies the acidic hydrogen atoms of monoacetylphosphine 1a are both bound to phosphorus. In liquid diacetylphosphine 2a or in solutions of this compound, However, there exists an equilibrium between the keto tautomer K- 2a with a PH and the enol tautomer E- 2a with an O? H? O group; compared with pentane-2,4-dione 8a the keto tautomerpredo minates in 2a . As in 1,3-diketones a low temperature and a small dielectric constant of the solvent increase the amount of enol tautomer E- 2a present. The ¹H-nmr resonance of the enolic hydrogen atom is observed at very low field (δ = 18,3 ppm).

Zusammenfassung Um Material zur Deutung des Mechanismus der Sorption von Sr²⁺-Ionen an Eisen(III)-hydroxid zu gewinnen, werden Meßreihen mitgeteilt, in denen die pH-Abhängigkeit der Sorption sowie deren Beeinflussung bei Fällung mit verschiedenen Basen (NaOH, Ammoniak, Trimethylamin, Benzylamin) untersucht wird. Aus den charakteristischen Unterschieden der Sorptionskurven muß gefolgert werden, daß die Art der Base für die Sorption eine wichtige Rolle spielt.
