Dense Monolayers of Monodisperse Opaque Spheres: Transmission and diffraction in the fraunhofer domain

The transmission and diffraction of radiation through dense monolayers of monodisperse opaque spheres were studied for the Fraunhofer domain. Theoretical considerations, numerical calculations and experiments on ultrasonic transmission and on laser light transmission and diffraction yielded corresponding results. Complementary studies included the cases of sterically non-interacting particles (by numerical simulation) and of small particle size parameters (by ultrasonic extinction). Transmission was found to be, in general, a non-linear function of the monolayer density. Secondary effects on the transmission can be attributed to the effect of the monolayer structure (characterized by the pair correlation function) on the angular distribution of diffracted intensity. The results were found to be in accordance with experimental results on extinction in three-dimensional systems.     

Ferrocene derivatives XXVIII. The metallation of phenylazoferrocene and the synthesis of phenylazocyclopentadienyl derivatives of other metals

Phenylazoferrocene undergoes nickelation and palladation exclusively on the phenyl group. Lithium phenylazocyclopentadienide has been converted into derivatives of Mo, Mn, Fe, Ru and Rh.
