The procedures for the synthesis ofN-polynitromethyl derivatives of benzo[1,2-d;4,5d]ditriazole-4,8-dione are described. Some chemical properties of the compounds obtained are investigated.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 9, pp. 1623–1625, September, 1993.     

Polarization fluoroimmunoassays for the specific determination of amphetamine and methamphetamine in urine with the abbott TDx-analyzer

Two polarization fluoroimmunoassays for the screening of amphetamine and methamphetamine in urine were adapted for use with the Abbott TD_x-Analyzer running in the automatic mode. The detection limits of amphetamine and methamphetamine in 10 μl of urine were 0.03 and 0.05 mg l^?1, respectively. These assays were specific for the determination of amphetamine (cross-reactivity with methamphetamine 1%) or for the determination of methamphetamine (cross-reactivity with amphetamine 2.5%). No significant cross-reaction was observed with other drugs of abuse (ephedrine, morphine and butabarbital).     

Reactions of Elemental Phosphorus with Electrophiles in Super Basic Systems: XVII. Phosphorylation of Arylalkenes with Active Modifications of Elemental Phosphorus

The example of the phosphorylation of styrene and 2-vinylnaphthalene with elemental phosphorus in the KOH-DMSO system at room or elevated temperature was used to show that the activated red phosphorus prepared from white phosphorus under ionizing radiation has a reactivity comparable with that of white phosphorus and significantly higher than that of ordinary technical red phosphorus.     

Spectral properties of one-dimensional disperse crystals

The connection between the spectral characteristics of the one-dimensional Schrödinger operator with periodic potential, asa, and the spectral characteristic of the Schrödinger operatorl(y)=–y+q(x)y with a decreasing potentialq(x) is studied.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Photophysical processes and the photodissociation of chemical bonds in polyatomic molecules

The main concepts of the nature of electronically excited states in polyatomic molecules and the intramolecular and intermolecular processes of their evolution are reported. The dependence of the probabilities of these processes on the electronic structure of the molecule is considered. Possible mechanisms of the dissociation of electronically excited molecules with bond cleavage are discussed, and the theoretical results of this consideration are given. The experimental data obtained by the authors are interpreted. In this case, attention is focused on C-H-bond photodissociation processes in a condensed phase, which are the best studied processes. The dissociation of other bonds is briefly discussed.     

Coulomb energy averaged over the nlN-atomic states with a definite spin

A purely group-theoretical approach (for which the symmetric group plays a central role), based upon the use of properties of fractional-parentage coefficients and isoscalar factors, is developed for the derivation of the Coulomb energy averaged over the states, with a definite spin, arising from an atomic configuration nl^N. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
