Effect of phase composition of palladium-ruthenium membrane catalyst on selectivity of dehydrolinalool hydrogenation

Conclusions When the hydrogenation of dehydrolinalool to linalool is run on a Pd alloy containing 6 wt.% of Ru, which is lean in the -hydrogen phase, the selectivity is much greater than when the amount of the -hydrogen phase is greater. A high selectivity of the hydrogenation is achieved by reducing to a definite limit the amount of hydrogen in the membrane catalyst without using inhibitors of the side reactions, which can contaminate the hydrogenation products.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 4, pp. 926–928, April, 1984.     

Basicities of phosphinylalkylamines in water and ethanol

Conclusions The pK_a values of various phosphinylalkylamines in water and ethanol were determined. The inductive effect of phosphinyl groups on the basicities of the investigated amines was demonstrated. The inductive constants of a series of substituents were estimated.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1265–1267, June, 1982.     

Application of Carbowax 20M as an open-tubular liquid phase in analyses of nutritionally important fats and oils.

In the first part, the reasons for the choice of Carbowax 20M-terephthalic acid as a liquid phase are indicated and the technique for preparation of columns is descirbed. The ECL of 14 to 24 carbon fatty acids (branched and positional isomers of unsaturated acids) as well as the accuracy of determination of some fatty acids, are presented. In the second part, examples of chromatograms are given as well as tables concerning the composition of various fats: vegetable oils, depot fats, and fats from organs of monogastric species, polygastric species, and fish.     

Peculiarities in the copolymerization of trioxane and epichlorohydrin under the influence of EtB⊖F3 A⊕lEt2

This study deals with the copolymerization of trioxane (TO) and 1-chloro-2, 3-epoxypropane (epichlorohydrin, ECH) catalyzed by EtB^?F₃ A^⊕lEt₂ in toluene. The rate of exhaustion of monomers during copolymerization was measured by gas chromatography. It was established that no homopolymers were formed. The copolymers obtained show a high alkali resistance, indicating a statistical distribution of the ECH in the polymer chain. During the first stages of the copolymerization the ECH is exhausted almost instantaneously, whereas TO is gradually exhausted, finally reaching a certain equilibrium depending both on the quantity of the initial ECH and on the temperature at which the process was carried out. Copolymerization is inhibited at increased ECH levels, and only homopolymerization occurs at a certain critical concentration of ECH.

Production of Magnetic Supports Coated with Silica Layer from Dispersed Cobalt and Zinc-Nickel Ferrites

The possibility of obtaining dispersed powders of cobalt and zinc-nickel ferrites with particle size of 1-4 m by thermal treatment of the corresponding oxalates was analyzed. Changes in porous characteristics of the ferrites obtained in their thermal treatment were studied.
