Über die Konzentrationsabhängigkeit der Viskosität bei organischen Hochpolymeren

Zusammenfassung Es wird eine Korrekturformel zur 8. Potenzformel von Philippoff-Heß vorgeschlagen, die auch die Fälle gut wiedergibt, wo die einfache 8. Potenzformel ebenso wie andere Viskositätsgleichungen bisher versagten. Im einzelnen wird die Gleichung geprüft an folgenden bisherigen Ausnahmen: Cellit in Eisessig (Philippoff-Heß), polymere-Hydroxydekansäuren in sym-Tetrachloräthan(Kraemer-von Natta), polymere Polystyrole in Benzol (Dane). In jedem Falle stellen diek-Werte gute Konstanten dar.Die charakteristische Viskositätskonstantek zeigt eine lineare Zunahme mit dem Molekulargewicht der Polymerhomologen.Die Temperaturabhängigkeit vonk unda wird geprüft.     

Spectroscopic Study of Reaction of Propargyl Bromide with Pyridine

Pyridine was reacted with propargyl bromide to obtain the dibromide [C₅H₅NCH = CHCH = CHCH = CHC₅H₅N]^{2 +} 2Br^-. The effect of the vinyl group on its UV spectrum is qualitatively interpreted using the results of nonempirical quantum-chemical calculations (basis HF/6-31G^*).     

NMR Study of Structural Changes in Humic Acids of Meadow Soddy Soils

Quantitative and qualitative changes in humic acids of meadow soddy soils, occurring under the action of various fertilizer systems, were studied by ¹³C and ³¹P NMR.     

High-Sensitivity Determination of Hydrocarbon Impurities in Arsine by Reaction Gas Chromatography

It is shown that the results of determining methane in high-purity arsine by reaction gas chromatography can be overestimated by more than two orders of magnitude. This overestimation is caused by the formation of methane as a side product of the reaction. Cryogenic preconcentration at the injection stage is proposed to improve the accuracy of determination of methane, and the cryofocusing of impurity hydrocarbons is proposed to improve separation. Detection limits of (3–10) × 10^–6 vol % are achieved for C₁–C₅ hydrocarbons.

Stabilization of Graphite Nitrate by Intercalation of Organic Compounds

New thermally stable intercalation compounds of graphite were obtained by the further intercalation of a series of organic compounds into graphite nitrate. The stabilization is explained by the formation of hydrogen bonds between the protonated form of the modifying substance and neutral surrounding molecules.     

Vibrational spectra and structure of 4-cyano-4′-pentalkoxybiphenyl in different physical states

The polymorphism, conformation mobility and structure of 4-cyano-4′-pentalkoxybiphenyl (5OCB) in different physical states are studied by IR spectroscopy. The spectra were measured in the frequency range 400–4000 cm⁻¹ at temperatures from 300 to 350 K. The IR spectra of 5OCB are modeled using the concept of conformational mobility of these molecules. An analysis of the experimental and theoretical spectra reveals absorption bands whose spectroscopic parameters are sensitive to variations of temperature (experiment) and conformation (theory); a relationship between these changes is established. It is concluded that the polymorphism of 5OCB is of conformation type. In the solid crystalline state, 5OCB molecules have conformations with a planar biphenyl fragment; the angle of orientation of the plane of the carbon framework of the alkyl radical relative to the biphenyl fragment decreases as the temperature increases from 35° in the solid crystalline state to 10° in the liquid crystalline and isotropic liquid states. In both of these states the biphenyl fragment becomes nonplanar. The angle between the phenyl rings is up to 30°. Saratov State University. Institute of Physics, Ukrainian Academy of Sciences.
