Evolution of Statistical Ensembles of Microdomains on the Surface of Films of Rigid-Chain Polyimide during Thermal Imidization

Statistical ensembles of microdomains formed on the surface of polyimide films based on pyromellitic dianhydride and 2,7-diaminofluorene during thermal imidization were described in terms of the model of reversible aggregation using the electron-microscopic data. Parameters of the statistical distribution were determined for each ensemble depending on the film heating temperature.     

Exchange and magnetic dipole-dipole interactions in bi- and triradical complexes of Al(III), Ga(III), In(III), and Sn(IV) witho-semiquinones. PM3 calculation

Semiempirical (PM3 with CI) calculations of exchange interactions for the triradical complexes of Al(III), Ga(III), and In(III) and the biradical complex of Sn (IV) with o-semiquinones are carried out. The results are in agreement with both qualitative theoretical assumptions and experimental data. The calculations indicate that the superexchange via the unoccupied porbitals of the central metal ion predominantly determines the multiplicity of the ground states of the complexes. Zero-field splitting constants D are calculated; they also agree well with experimental data. Deceased.

Researches on synthetic dyes

Reaction of phenyl-ß-naphthylamines with formaldehyde and acetone in the presence of HCl and nitrobenzene in butanol solution leads to cyclization involving the naphthalene and phenyl rings, and formation of N-aryllepidine salts. 15 lepidine and 5, 6-benzoepidine salts are synthesized and characterized by their UV absorption spectra, as well as by their picrates.For Part LIII see [3].     

Structure,tautomerism, and transformations of β-(3-nitro-2-pyridyl)- and β-(3-nitro-4-pyridyl)pyruvic acid esters

It was shown by means of IR, UV, and PMR spectra that -(3-nitro-2-pyridyl)pyruvic acid esters are practically completely enolized in the crystal state and in solution; ethyl -(3-nitro-4-pyridyl)pyruvate has an enol structure in the crystalline state and in pyridine solution but exists as a mixture of keto and enol forms in low-polarity solvents.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 389–393, March, 1974.     

Course of bromination of thiazole and 2-methylthiazole

Bromination of thiazole by bromine in the presence of aluminum chloride in neutral solvent or without solvent takes place at the 2-position. Such an orientation contradicts the traditional addition-cleavage mechanism, and agrees with the ylid mechanism of electrophilic substitution. 2-Methylthiazole brominates at the 5-position, and the reaction is impeded in the presence of aluminum chloride; this is due to heterocycle deactivation by complexation with the Lewis acid at the nitrogen atom.Deceased.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 837–840, June, 1986.
