The reaction of iodine monochloride and monobromide with tetraorganotins

The reactions of iodine monochloride and iodine monobromide with a tetraalkyltin (butyl) and a tetraaryltin (phenyl) have been studied with a view to establishing their utility as routes to organotin chlorides and bromides respectively. Rapid high yield syntheses of the triorganotin bromides, diorganotin dichlorides and trialkyltin chloride were achieved. Some further suggestions are made on the mechanism of interhalogen fission of tincarbon bonds.     

Macroreticular ion-exchange resins: some analytical applications to petroleum products

Extraction and subsequent recovery, in four separate fractions, of naphthenic acids, alkylphenols, pyrrollic compounds and nitrogen bases can be made from petroleum products using macroporous ion-exchange resins. Distinctive features of the technique are the use of dissolved gases in polar solvents as eluants and the application of the carbonate form of anion-exchange resins. The transition metal form of a macroreticular cation exchanger is shown to extract ligands from non-aqueous systems and a specific application to petroleum analysis is given.     

Synthesis and Heterocyclization of 3-Arylaminothiocrotonanilides

Reactions of acetylthioacetanilide with arylamines in acetic acid in the presence of sodium acetate give 3-arylaminothiocrotonanilides in good yields. When treated with -bromoacetophenone in acetone, these products are converted to substituted 4-hydroxy-²-thiazolinium bromides, one of which was dehydrated to obtain the corresponding thiazolium bromide. The structure of the heterocyclization products was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction and NMR study of 2-acetonylidene-3,4-diphenyl-2,3-dihydrothiazole formed by dehydration of the corresponding ²-thiazolinium salt with simultaneous hydrolysis.     

Kinetics and mecahnism of oxidation of benzoins by peroxydisulfate catalyzed by Ag(I)

The kinetics of Ag(I) catalyzed oxidation of benzoin and four substituted benzoins by peroxydisulfate have been investigated in 30 vol. % acetic acid-water mixture at constant ionic strength. The parameters of Arrhenius and transition state theories have been computed. The rate laws are explained on the basis of a free radical mechanism.

Synthesis ofS-(+)-hydroprene

A novel path toS-(+)-hydroprene (1) starting from the technical gradeS-(+)-dihydromyrcene (2, e.e. 50%) is proposed. The latter was selectively transformed intoS-3,7-dimethyloctanal (5) in three steps including hydroalumination. The reactions of5 with allyl- or methallylmagnesium chloride followed, respectively, either by oxygenation in the presence of PdCl₂/CuCl or by ozonolysis, affordS,E-6,10-dimethyl-3-undecen-2-one (7) which was treated with ethoxyethynylmagnesium bromide to give the title juvenile hormone analogue in 23% overall yield.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Investigations of benzimidazole derivatives

3-(1-Methyl-2-benzimidazolyl)acrylic acid was obtained by the reaction of 1,2-dimethylbenzimidazole with chloral and subsequent hydrolysis of the condensation product. The hydrochloride of the chloride of this acid and its esters and amides were synthesized. The methyl and ethyl esters of the acid were synthesized by the Wittig reaction. The IR and UV spectra of the compounds obtained are presented.See [9] for Communication XXIV.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1566–1568, November, 1970.     

Synthesis and Structure of the New Ammonium Indium Phosphate (NH4)In(OH)PO4

A new ammonium indium phosphate (NH₄)In(OH)PO₄ was prepared by hydrothermal reaction in the In₂O₃-NH₄H₂PO₄-NH₃/OH system (T=200°C, autogenous pressure, 7 days). The formula (NH₄)In(OH)PO₄ was determined on the basis of chemical and thermal analysis (TG/DSC), X-ray powder diffraction and IR-spectroscopy. (NH₄)In(OH)PO₄ crystallizes in the tetragonal system with space group P4₃2₁2 (No. 96); a=9.4232(1) Å, c=11.1766(1) Å, V=992.45(2) ų; Z=8. The crystal structure was refined by the Rietveld method (R_w=6.35%, R_p=5.10%). The second-harmonic generation study confirmed that structure of (NH₄)In(OH)PO₄ does not have a center of symmetry. The cis-InO₄(OH)₂ octahedra form helical chains, parallel to the c-axis. The In-O-In bonds are nearly equidistant. The chains are interconnected by phosphate tetrahedra and create tunnels containing the NH₄⁺ ions along the c-axis. (NH₄)In(OH)PO₄ is isostructural with RbIn(OH)PO₄.     

Ion-exchange properties of silica gel with covalently bonded histidine

The ion-exchange and acid-base properties of Silasorb 600 (10 μm) with immobilized histidine (His-SiO₂) were investigated. The acid-base properties of the sorbent were estimated from the dependence sof the retention of organic acids and bases on the eluent pH. The effect of various organic modifiers (benzoic, citric, oxalic, and sulfuric acids) and the eluent pH on the retention of inorganic ions was studied. It was shown that His-SiO₂ exhibits anion-exchange properties in acidic and weakly acidic media at pH < 5.7. Eight anions were separated under optimal conditions on a 150 × 4.6-mm column in 21 min using a 5 mM oxialic acid solution as an eluent.     

Quantitative estimation of the α-effect in the reactions yielding phosphorus-containing thiosemicarbazides

The α-effect in the reactions of O,O-diaryl phosphorohydrazidothioates with phenyl isothiocyanate in benzene at 25°C was quantitatively evaluated from the kinetic data. The probable reaction mechanism was suggested, and the causes of the α-effect in these reactions are discussed. An approximate linear correlation is observed between the α-effect in the reactions of O,O-diaryl phosphorohydrazidothioates with phenyl isothiocyanate, basicity constants of the hydrazides, and σ^p constants of the substituents at the P atom. The value of the α-effect is largely determined by the structure of the transition state.     

Isoscalar factors for tetragonal,orthorhombic, monoclinic and triclinic shubnikov point groups

The relations between isoscalar factors for corepresentations of antiunitary magnetic point groups are discussed in the case of associated corepresentations. The tables of the isoscalar factors for the single- and double-valued corepresentations of all tetragonal, orthorhombic, monoclinic, and triclinic Shubnikov point groups are given. Some peculiarities of the calculation method of the isoscalar factors for corepresentations are considered.
