Die Schmelzdiagramme der Systeme CsN3/Zn(N3)2 und KN3/Zn(N3)2

The phase diagrams of the systems CsN₃/Zn(N₃)₂ and KN₃/Zn(N₃)₂ have been obtained employing the microscopic technique ofL. Kofler andA. Kofler. Within the system CsN₃/Zn(N₃)₂ three eutectics at 148°C, 142°C, and 210°C were found. Besides Cs₂Zn(N₃)₄, melting incongruently in the interval 153°C to 170°C, there exist two further compounds of the most probable composition Cs₃Zn₂(N₃)₇ and CsZn₂(N₃)₅, melting congruently at 170°C and 210°C, resp. In the system KN₃/Zn(N₃)₂ there exist two eutectics at 203°C and 172°C and two compounds, one of them, i.e. K₂Zn(N₃)₄, melting congruently at 206°C, the other one, with composition KZn₃(N₃)₇ or KZn₄(N₃)₉, melting incongruently at 210°C.

Vernetzung und Abbau von Polyäthylenterephthalat durch Elektronenbestrahlung

Zusammenfassung PÄT-Folien wurden in Luft, Stickstoff und Vakuum bei 20 °C mit 1 MeV-Elektronen bestrahlt. Untersucht wurden Löslichkeit und Viskosität von Proben, die unmittelbar nach der Bestrahlung gelöst wurden.In allen untersuchten Fällen trat bei hohen Bestrahlungsdosen ein unlöslicher, d. h. vernetzter Anteil auf, dessen Ausbildung jedoch durch in den Proben enthaltene Feuchtigkeit verzögert werden kann. Bei niedrigen Bestrahlungsdosen bewirkt Feuchtigkeit einen Abbau des Polymeren, wie durch Viskositätsmessungen gezeigt wird.Aus den Gel-Messungen wurde derp ₀/q ₀-Wert für Bestrahlung in Luft, Stickstoff und Vakuum zu 1,05 bestimmt.Die Änderung des Gel-Anteils bei Lagerung der Proben zwischen Bestrahlung und Lösung wird diskutiert.

Summary Polyethyleneterephthalate samples were irradiated in air, nitrogen and vacuum at 20 °C with 1 MeV electrons. The solubility of the samples and the viscosity of the solutions were studied immediately after irradiation. At high doses an insoluble crosslinked part was always observed. Crosslinking was delayed by moisture in the samples. At low irradiation doses moisture causes chain scission as shown by viscosity measurements. The ratiop ₀/q ₀ of degradation to crosslinking in the case of irradiation in air, nitrogen and vacuum was found by gel measurements to be 1.05. The insoluble gel-part changes with increasing storage time of the samples between irradiation and solution.

Viskoelastische Eigenschaften von Polyisobutylenen in verdünnten Lösungen

Zusammenfassung Die Speicher- und VerlustmodulnG undG verdünnter Lösungen (2–4%) dreier Isobutylenpolymerisate mit den Molekulargewichten 0,63, 1,29 und 11×10⁵ wurden in der Apparatur vonBirnboim undFerry über einen Frequenzbereich von 0,4–400 Hz und einen Temperaturbereich von –17,5 bis 25,0° bestimmt. Für die scharf fraktionierten Polymerisate von niederem Molekulargewicht ergab die Frequenzabhängigkeit der Moduln eine ausgezeichnete Übereinstimmung mit der Theorie vonZimm. Die aus den experimentell erhaltenen Kurven ermittelten Molekulargewichte und größten Relaxationszeiten waren von der erwarteten Größenordnung. Für das Polymerisat mit höherem Molekulargewicht entsprach die Frequenzabhängigkeit vonG undG – _s jedoch der Theorie vonRouse. Der Einfluß der hydrodynamischen Wechselwirkung in der Bewegung der Knäuelsegmente, in welchem der Unterschied zwischen den beiden Theorien besteht, erscheint als von der Größe des Molekulargewichts abhängig.

Summary The storage and loss moduliG andG of dilute (2–4%) solutions of three polyisobutylenes of molecular weight 0.63, 1.29, and 11×10⁵ were determined in the apparatus ofBirnboim andFerry over a frequency range of 0.4 to 400 cps, and a temperature range of –17.0 to 25.0°. The sharply fractionated polymers of low molecular weight showed a frequency dependence in excellent agreement with the theory ofZimm. The experimentally determined molecular weights and terminal relaxation times were of the expected order of magnitude. The frequency dependence of the polymer of highest molecular weight, however, conformed more closely to the theory ofRouse. The influence of the hydrodynamic interaction on the motion of the coil segments, which constitutes the difference in the two theories, appears to depend on the magnitude of the molecular weight.

     

Mechanism of the oxidation of cycloheptanone by chloramine-T

The oxidation kinetics of cycloheptanone by chloramine-T in alkaline media has been investigated. A mechanism involving the formation of an intermediate by the interaction between the enolic anion of cycloheptanone and chloramine-T in a slow step followed by its interaction with another molecule of chloramine-T in a fast step leading to products has been proposed. The scheme satisfactorily accords with the observed stoichiometry, negligible influence of ionic strength and a positive dielectric effect. Various rate parameters have been computed and 1.2-cycloheptanedione identified as the end product.With 2 Figures

A new technique for the identification of chloride ions by the formation of chromyl chloride

Summary A new technique is described for the identification of the chloride ion through the formation of chromyl chloride, based on the extraction of the latter with carbon tetrachloride. The identification limit is 2g of chloride. It is possible to carry out the test in the presence of many other anions, including fluoride, which cannot be present when the traditional distillation technique is employed.

Zur Umsetzung des 3,4,5,6-Tetrahydro-6-hydroxy-4,4,6-trimethyl-1,3-thiazin-2-thions mit sekundären Aminen

Tetrahydro-6-hydroxy-trimethyl-1,3-thiazine-2-thione (1) reacts with secondary amines via the dialkylammonium-3-oxoalkyldithiocarbamate3, either via isothiocyanates6 to 4-dialkylaminodihydro-2(1H)-pyridinethiones7 or to dialkylammonium dithiocarbamates (13), depending on the amine used and the reaction conditions. Subsequently, 6-dialkylaminotetrahydro-1,3-thiazine-2-thiones11 or tetrahydro-6-mercapto-1,3-thiazine-2-thione10 are formed. On being heated to reflux,11 reacts to pyridinethione7 and 4-dialkylaminodihydrothiopyranthione19. With secondary amines only13 is formed from tetrahydro-6-hydroxytetramethyl-1,3-thiazine-2-thione20. The reaction of dihydrotrimethyl-1,3-thiazine-2-thione21 with secondary amines leads to N,N-dialkylthioureas16 or dialkylammonium thiocyanates17 and with dialkylformamides 4-dialkylaminodihydropyridinethiones7 are formed. Dihydrotetramethyl-1,3-thiazine-2-thione24 reacts neither with secondary amines nor with dialkylformamides.     

Beiträge zur Chemie der Pyrrolpigmente, 19. Mitt.: Die elektrochemische Oxidation von Pyrromethenonen und Pyrromethenen (Gallenpigment-Partialstrukturen)

The electrochemical oxidation of arylmethylene-pyrrolinones, pyrromethenones and pyrromethenes as representative bile pigment partial structure models was investigated by means of a rotating disc platinum electrode using acetonitrile as the solvent. Two different oxidation reactions were found. The first reaction being a reversible one-electron oxidation with compounds of the arylmethylene-pyrrolinone series and pyrromethenones which are unsubstituted in position 5 of the pyrrole ring. A two step reaction (the first one reversible, the second irreversible) on the other hand was found to be typical for pyrromethenones bearing a methyl group in this position.Through protonation the first step is at a higher potential, whereas the second one is lowered and becomes reversible. The resulting oxidation pattern can be interpreted analogous to the oxidation of hydroquinones in aprotic solvents.The geometrical isomers of a pyrromethenone were oxidized at appr. the same potential, but there is a strong dependence of the potential of the first oxidation step on the substitution: a higher degree of alkylation favours oxidation by lowering the oxidation potential.

Zur Kenntnis der thermischen Zersetzung von Ammoniumhexafluoroscandat,-titanat,-vanadat und-chromat

Thermal analysis supported by kinetic calculations was applied exhaustively to these compounds. Under dynamic conditions, tetrafluorometallates(III), which as intermediates, could not be isolated, for the first three compounds. In each case, the final step was the pure metal(III) fluoride. Ammonium hexafluorochromate(III) decomposed directly to the pure chromium(III) fluoride. The decomposition rate of all compounds slowed down towards the end, probably for kinetic reasons. Polymorphic transitions of ammonium hexafluorotitanate(III) were observed at 35 and 100°C. Ammoniumhexafluoroscandate(III) underwent polymorphic transition at 47°C. The decomposition patterns for all these compounds were similar. Conditions for the preparation of pure ammonium tetrafluorometallates(III) of Sc, Ti and V are described.
