Fuel Oil Pyrolysis Initiated by Propane-Butane-Oxygen Flame

The parameters of fuel oil pyrolysis initiated by propane-butane-oxygen flame were studied as influenced by the temperature in the pyrolysis zone, time of the fuel oil contact with the initiating flame, and fuel oil feed rate. The experimental data on thermal and flame-initiated fuel oil pyrolysis were compared.     

Highly polarized enamines. 2. Synthesis and investigation of the further amination of derivatives of α,α-DIAMINO-β-cyano-β-nitroethylene

Highly polarized enediamines of the a, -diamino--cyano--nitroethylene type have been obtained by the hydrolysis of 4-chloro-5-nitropyrimidines. Several chemical conversions of the enamines obtained have been studied, particularly leading to derivatives of 2-(cyanonitromethylene)imidazoline and -hexahydropyrimidine, and also to derivatives of N, N-bisvinylpiperazine and 7 methylene-1, 4-diazabicyclo(2.2. 1 ]heptane.Center for Drug Chemistry, All-Russian Chemical and Pharmaceutical Research Institute, Moscow 119815.

EPR study of spin adducts of silyl and phosphonyl radicals with higher internal perfluoroalkenes

The EPR method was used to study the structure of spin adducts of silyl and phosphonyl radicals with higher internal perfluoroalkenes. The capacity for spin adducts to split off hydrogen atoms is determined by the degree of steric screening of the free radical center. The preparative photochemical reaction of hydrosilanes and dialkyl phosphites with perfluoro-4-methylpent-2-ene leads to regiospecific hydrosilylation and hydrophosphorylation products with yields up to 80%.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 1018–1023, May, 1991.     

Mechanism of the Reaction of Xenon Tetraoxide with Hydrogen: A Photochemical Reaction

The dependence of the rate of a photochemical reaction of XeO₄with H₂on the concentrations of H₂and the diluent gases He and CO₂is studied at room temperature. The results are compared with the data for the dark reaction. A mechanism with the elementary energetic branched-chain reaction OH (v) + XeO₄OH + O + XeO₃is proposed to explain the results of the study.     

Comparative study of NMR spectea of monosubstituted (C5H4X)M(CO)3 (M=Mn,Re)

Conclusions The electron density on the-cyclopentadienyl ligand in cyclopentadienylmanganese tricarbonyl derivatives is higher than in the corresponding cyclopentadienylrhenium tricarbonyl derivatives.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 9, pp. 2142–2143, September, 1973.     

Kinetics and mechanism of the Co(II)-assisted oxidation of thioureas by dioxygen

Catalytic oxidation of N,N'-dimethylthiourea and thiourea by dioxygen in water using a new cobalt(II) complex of octasulfophenyltetrapyrazinoporphyrazine was performed under mild conditions. The reaction is shown to include the formation of an intermediate anionic five-coordinate complex followed by an unusual two-electron oxidation to produce the corresponding urea and elemental sulfur (S8). Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters for the different reaction steps of the process were determined. Drastic differences in catalytic activity of cobalt and iron octasulfophenyltetrapyrazinoporphyrazines were observed.     

Catalytic Activity of Complex-Oxide Perovskite-containing Compositions in Reactions of Oxidation of CO and Organic Compounds

The catalytic activity of composites constituted by a porous metallic or ceramic support, intermediate layers of oxide nature, and perovskite coatings, including those doped with silver, was studied in reactions of deep oxidation of CO and organic compounds of various classes. The relationship between the catalytic activity of a composite and its composition and nature of substances being oxidized was analyzed.     

Mass spectrometric study of the pyrolysis of perfluorinated compounds of composition C6F12-C9F20, containing perfluoroisopropyl groups

The primary and final products arising from the pyrolysis of perfluoro-2,4-dimethyl-3-ethylpentane, perfluoro-3-isopropyl-4-methyl-2-pentene, perfluoro-2-methyl-3-isopropyl-2-pentene, perfluoro-2,4-dimethyl-3-heptene, and perfluoro-4-methyl-2-pentene have been studied using low-energy mass spectrometry and chromatography-mass spectrometry. Thermal decomposition of hexafluoropropene oligomers, containing perfluoroisopropyl groups attached to a double bond, occurs via loss of a radical pair to form perfluorodienes, as well as via abstraction of a hexafluoropropene molecule from the iso-C₃F₇ group. A correlation between the principal fragmentation pathway observed under electron impact and the primary process in the main thermolysis pathway was detected only in the case of perfluoro-4-methyl-2-pentene and perfluoro-2,4-dimethyl-3-heptene, which are capable of cleavage of^.CF₃ and^.C₂F₅ radicals, respectively, to give a single possible allyl radical structure.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 5, pp. 1037–1041, May, 1990.
