Derivatives of l-H-aziridine-2-carboxylic acid

The reaction of 1,1-dimethylhydrazine with acrylic acid derivatives gave a number of 1,1-dimethyl-2-(2-substituted ethyl)hydrazines, which were quaternized by alkylating agents. The transformations of 1,1,1-trimethyl-2-(2-substituted ethyl)hydrazinium salts in the presence of sodium methoxide were investigated. 2-Cyano-, 2-carbomethoxy-, 2-carbethoxy-, and 2-carbodiethylamidoaziridines and a number of products of decomposition of the starting salts were obtained.     

Inhibition of the oxidation reaction of cumene by complexes of metals of variable valence with dimethyl- and diphenylglyoxime

Conclusions The complexes of Co, Ni, Fe, and Cu with dimethyl- and diphenylglyoxime inhibit the initiated oxidation of cumene by reacting with the peroxide radicals.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1342–1344, June, 1971.     

Oxidation and Reduction Processes During NO x Removal with Corona-Induced Nonthermal Plasma

In this paper, the NO-to-NO ₂ conversion in various gaseous mixtures is experimentally investigated. Streamer coronas are produced with a dc-superimposed high-frequency ac power supply (10–60 kHz). According to NO _x removal experiments in N ₂ +NO _x and N ₂ +O ₂ +NO _x gaseous mixtures, it is supposed that the reverse reaction NO ₂ +ONO+O ₂ may not only limit NO ₂ production in N ₂ +NO _x mixtures, but also increase the energy cost for NO removal. Oxygen could significantly suppress reduction reactions and enhance oxidation processes. The reduction reactions, such as N+NON ₂ +O, induce negligible NO removal provided the O ₂ concentration is larger than 3.6%. With adding H ₂ O into the reactor, the produced NO ₂ per unit removed NO can be significantly reduced due to NO ₂ oxidation. NH ₃ injection could also significantly decrease the produced NO ₂ via NH and NH ₂ - related reduction reactions. Almost 100% of NO ₂ can be removed in gaseous mixtures of N ₂ +O ₂ +H ₂ O+NO ₂ with negligible NO production.     

Alkoxy(acyloxy)silanes

Conclusions Alkoxychlorosilanes react with trimethylacyloxysilanes to give the difficultly accessible alkoxy(acyloxy)silanes of general formula (RO)_nSi(OCOR)_4-n (n=1–3) in 60–80% yields.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 671–674, March, 1989.
