The liquid‐crystalline polymorphism of the homologous series of 4‐hexyloxybenzylidene‐4′‐alkyloxyanilines is investigated. Basing on the polarization microscopy (POM, TOA), the DSC calorimetry and miscibility studies the following mesophases were detected: nematic, smectic A, smectic C and smectic I. The phase diagrams of the compounds of these series with 4‐hexyloxybenylidene‐4′‐pentylaniline (as the standard of mesophases) show induction of the smectic F mesophases. Their dependence on the alkyl chain length and mole fraction is shown. 相似文献
The debate over the orbital order in the layered triangular lattice system NaTiO2 has been rekindled by the recent experiments of McQueen et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101 (2008) 166402] on NaVO2. In view of this, the nature of orbital ordering, in both high and low temperature phases, is studied using an ab-initio electronic structure calculation. The orbital order observed in our calculations in the low temperature structure of NaTiO2 is consistent with the predictions of McQueen et al. An LDA plus dynamical mean-field calculation shows considerable transfer of spectral weight from the Fermi level but no metal–insulator transition, confirming the poor metallic behavior observed in transport measurements. 相似文献
Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) complexes have been synthesized with benzil bis(thiosemicarbazone) (L) and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements, magnetic susceptibility measurements, thermogravimetric studies, infrared (IR), electronic, and electron paramagnetic resonance (eEPR) spectral studies. The molar conductance measurements of the complexes in DMF correspond to the non-electrolytic nature of the complexes. Thus these complexes may be formulated as [M(L)X2] (where M = Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and X = Cl? and NO3?). On the basis of IR, electronic, and EPR spectral studies, an octahedral geometry has been assigned for Mn(II), Co(II), and Ni(II) complexes, whereas a tetragonal geometry for the Cu(II) complexes is presumed. The free ligand and its metal complexes were tested against the phytopathogenic fungi (i.e., Rhizoctonia baticola, Alternaria alternata) in vitro. 相似文献
Thermal stability of PbO was studied. Reactivity of oxides in the systems PbO–M2O3 (M = In, Fe) was investigated up to 650 °C. Using the DTA and XRD methods, parts of investigated ternary oxide systems, labelled by compounds: V2O5, Pb8V2O13 and M2O3 (M = In, Fe), have been divided into partial ternary systems. IR spectra of compounds Pb2MV3O11 (M = In, Fe) have been compared. 相似文献
The distribution coefficients and enantioseparation of cyclopentolate were studied in an extraction system containing d-tartaric acid ditertbutyl ester in organic phase and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) in aqueous phase. Various parameters involved in the enantioseparation such as the type and the concentration of chiral selectors, pH value and a wide range of organic solvents were investigated. The maximum enantioselectivity (α = 2.13) and optimum distribution coefficients (KR = 0.85, KS = 0.40) were obtained under the following conditions: 0.10 mol/L HP-β-CD in aqueous phase and 0.20 mol/L d-tartaric acid ditertbutyl ester in decanol as organic phase. Cyclopentolate is present as a racemic mixture to the aqueous phase. The potentially different biological activities of cyclopentolate enantiomers have not been examined yet. Two chiral liquid chromatography methods have been developed for the direct separation of the enantiomers of cyclopentolate. First method was used for the quantification analysis of cyclopentolate enantiomers in aqueous phase. Second method used two chiroptical detectors: electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and optical rotation (OR) for the identification of individual cyclopentolate enantiomers from the organic phase enriched with (R)-enantiomer. The absolute stereochemistry was determined by means of the comparison of the experimental and computed ECD spectra and signs of OR. The ECD spectra of chiral analytes were measured on-line using HPLC-ECD technique.
Aromatic allylic benzoates can be selectively transformed to the corresponding benzoate eliminated olefin by the action of samarium diiodide. Depending on the substrate and the elimination conditions, high selectivity for the non-conjugated alkene product can be achieved. 相似文献
The design, synthesis and characterisation of some compounds whose constituent molecules have a completely new shape have been carried out. A total of eight different series/part of series of these zigzag-shaped compounds that are either symmetrical or unsymmetrical were synthesised. Only two mesophases were observed, and on the basis of polarising optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and electro-optical studies, these have been characterised as columnar phases with a rectangular or an oblique lattice. Perhaps, these represent the first examples of a rigid zigzag-shaped compound exhibiting a mesophase. 相似文献
Nature and population of Li+ cationic sites in MCM-22 zeolite and its pillared form (MCM-36) were investigated by means of adsorption of CO as a probe molecule. CO stretching frequency and adsorption heat were measured by FTIR spectroscopy and adsorption microcalorimetry. Intrazeolitic carbonyl complexes on Li+ cations in MCM-22 and MCM-36 are characterized by two main vibrational bands at 2,195 and 2,188 cm?1. Band at higher wavenumbers is ascribed to carbonyls on Li+ ions coordinated only to two oxygen atoms at the intersection of 10-ring channels and interacting with CO molecule by energy around 45 kJ mol?1. Band at 2,188 cm?1 was assigned to the carbonyls on Li+ cations located on top of 5 or 6-rings on the channel walls and coordinated to three or four oxygen atoms, interacting with CO molecule by energy 33–36 kJ mol?1. Effect of pillaring and layered form of zeolite on nature and population of Li+ cationic sites is also discussed, as well as the formation of dicarbonyl complexes. 相似文献
