Generation and reactivity of 3‐carbethoxy‐5‐phenyl‐5H,7H‐thiazolo[3,4‐c]oxazol‐4‐ium‐1‐olate

3‐Carbethoxy‐5‐phenyl‐5H,7H‐thiazolo[3,4‐c]oxazol‐4‐ium‐1‐olate was generated from (2R,4R)‐N‐ethoxyoxalyl‐2‐phenylthiazolidine‐4‐carboxylic acid and its reactivity studied. This münchnone showed low reactivity as dipole although from the reaction with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate the corresponding (3R)‐3‐phenyl‐17H,3H‐pyrrolo[1,2‐c]thiazole‐5,6,7‐tricarboxylate could be isolated. The thermolysis of (2R,4R)‐N‐ethoxyoxalyl‐2‐phenylthiazolidine‐4‐carboxylic acid in refluxing acetic anhydride led to the synthesis of N‐(1‐ethoxycarbonyl‐2‐phenylvinyl)‐2‐phenyl‐4‐thioxo‐1,3‐thiazolidine. The structure of methyl (2R,4R)‐N‐ethoxyoxalyl‐2‐phenylthiazoliddine‐4‐carboxylate was determined by X‐ray crystallography.     

Some physical properties of KCl+Pb2+ crystals

This paper presents the results of measurements of the mechanical and electrical properties of as-received pure and lead-doped crystals of potassium chloride. The critical resolved shear stress of the crystals obeys the Franks relationship in the whole concentration range. In addition, the correlation between ₀ and the Vickers hardness numberH was found and the equation is of the form ₀=k (H–H ₀). The solubility of Pb²⁺ in as-received KCl crystals was observed, from measurements of the electrical conductivity, to be low—the successive saturation of the solid solution started already in an environment of 5 mole ppm in agreement with data from the mechanical measurements. The density of cation vacancies and their mobility were represented by the following euqations ₁ T=6·25×10⁴ exp(–·75/kT) cm² K/volt. sec,n ₁=6·95×10²³ exp(–2·12/kT) vacancies/cm³ The value of 0sd46±0·02 eV was found as a rough estimate of the association energy.The authors wish to express their thanks to Professor Dr. J. Z.Damm and Ing. E.Mariani for their stimulating interest in the present work.     

16, 18O induced transfer reactions on122, 120Sn

The reactions¹²⁰Sn+72 MeV¹⁸O and¹²²Sn+74 MeV¹⁶O were investigated with time of-flightE-E-telescopes. Data are presented for all quasi-elastic reaction channels. The two neutron stripping and pickup reactions (¹⁸O,¹⁶O), (¹⁸O,²⁰O) and (¹⁶O,¹⁸O) are analyzed in detail. It is shown that these heavy ion induced two neutron transfer reactions proceed with essentially the same type of selectivity as the corresponding light ion induced reactions. The differential cross sections for transfer reactions leaving the^{120, 122}Sn nuclei in their 2⁺ first excited states are shown to be influenced by interference effects due to additional inelastic excitations.     

Inner-shell ionization ofZ=25–32 elements by 5-48 MeV32S ions

TheK-shell ionization cross sections of Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn and Ge under³²S bombardment have been measured in the energy range from 5 to 48 MeV. The cross sections are compared with available theories based on a direct Coulomb ionization mechanism and with the predictions of theK-vacancy sharing process. This last process can reasonably account for the measured cross sections at high bombarding energies. The energy shifts of theK - andK -lines and theK /K -intensity ratios have also been measured. This information is used to deduce the defect configuration of the atoms. The mechanisms responsible for the multiple vacancy production are discussed.     

Elimination of the type B uncertainty

An uncertainty of an estimated parameter can be, in general, decomposed into two parts, i.e. an uncertainty caused by errors in the actual experiment (the type A uncertainty) and an uncertainty caused by errors in preceding experiment, where some wanted constants were estimated (the type B uncertainty). These constants are necessary for an estimation of the useful parameters. The aim of the paper is to find a condition for elimination of the type B uncertainty.     

Concentration variations in the optical pseudogap and refractive index of crystals of Cu6PS5I1–xClx solid solutions

The effect of anionic substitution of halogen atoms on the spectral position and shape of the optical absorption edge and the dispersion of the refractive index of crystals of Cu₆PS₅I_1–xCl_x solid solutions are studied. The concentration dependences of the width of the optical pseudogap, refractive index, and lattice parameters are shown to be interrelated in these solid solution crystals.
