2-Diphenylphosphinoyloxybenzaldehyde 4-Nitrophenyl-, 4-Phenyl-1-phthalazinyl-, and Aroylhydrazones and Thiosemicarbazone

Condensation of aryl- and aroylhydrazines and thiosemicarbazide with 2-diphenylphosphinoyloxybenzaldehyde results in formation of the corresponding hydrazones and thiosemicarbazone. The products give rise to conformational equilibrium between rotational and Z,E isomers, which is strongly displaced toward the E,E',Z' isomer and is determined by the nature of substituent in the hydrazine fragment.     

The catalytic reactions of triethyl- and triethoxy-silane with unsaturated sulphides

The hydrosilylation of mono- and di-alkenyl sulphides of the type RS(CH₂)_nCH=CH₂ (R = C₂H₅, CH₂=CH, CH₂=CHCH₂, C₃H₇, n = 0, 1 and 4) by triethyl- and triethoxy-silane, catalyzed by H₂PtCl₆·6 H₂O, (Ph₃P)₃RhCl and (PhCN)₂PdCl₂·Ph₃P, has been studied. The addition of hydrosilane to the double bond of alkenyl sulphide leads to a mixture of two isomeric monoadducts. The hydrosilane can cleave the C---S bond of the initial sulphides giving the corresponding derivatives of thiosilanes, X₃SiS(CH₂)_nCH=CH₂ (X = C₂H₅, C₂H₅O). Hydrosilylation of alkenyl sulphides is accompanied by some side reactions such as dehydrocondensation, reduction and polymerization. The effect of the catalyst nature, the structure of hydrosilane and alkenyl sulphide on the reaction route has been investigated.

Copper precipitation from sulfate solutions with calcium carbonates

Mechanism of interaction of copper sulfate with natural calcium carbonates, responsible for low residual copper concentrations in solutions and for the behavior of open and closed systems in storage is considered.     

Effect of hydrothermal treatment on catalytic properties of superhigh-silica zeolites

The effect of hydrothermal treatment of decationized superhigh-silica zeolite on the mechanism of n-hexane conversion has been studied. It has been established that thermosteam modification sharply decreases the cracking activity and increases the selectivity to aromatization reactions. Zeolite acidity markedly decreases, but its crystal structure does not become amorphous.

Effect of Additions of Silica Gel and Certain Salts of Inorganic Acids on Corrosion Resistance of Cement Stone

Effect of additions of silica gel, certain salts on the rheological parameters of cement mortarand corrosion resistance of cement stone was considered.     

2,3-Diphenylthiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidinium salts

The corresponding 2,3-diphenyl[3,2-a]pyrimidinium salts were obtained by the condensation of 4,5-diphenyl-2-aminothiazole perchlorate with -diketones, -chlorovinyl ketones, -chlorovinyl aldehydes, and 1,1,3,3-tetraethoxypropane. The PMR spectra were used to prove the structures of the compounds obtained, particularly to select the structures of the isomeric salts obtained in the condensation with unsymmetrical -diketones, -chlorovinyl ketones, and -chlorovinyl aldehydes. As a rule, the latter give one isomer — the -unsubstituted (relative to the bridge nitrogen atom) derivative.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 629–631, May, 1972.

THE QUANTUM EFFICIENCY FOR THE INTERPHOTOCONVERSION OF THE BLUE and PINK FORMS OF PURPLE MEMBRANE

When the cations bound to purple membrane are removed it turns blue, and when this blue membrane is irradiated its color changes to pink. Irradiation of pink membrane leads to the reformation of blue membrane. We have determined that the quantum efficiency for the formation of pink membrane from deionized blue membrane is 1.6 ± 0.6 ± 10 ⁴ at 0^oC, pH 5.0. We also found that the quantum efficiency for the back photoconversion, i.e. the formation of blue membrane from pink membrane, is 8.8 ± 1.6 ± 10^-3 at 0^oC, 55 times greater than that of the forward photoconversion reaction. The extinction coefficients of the pink membrane and blue membrane were determined to be 44 500 ± 670 cm^-1 M^-1 at 491 nm and 54 760 ± 830 cm^-1 M ^-1 at 603 nm, respectively, assuming light-adapted purple membrane is 63 000 cm^-1 M ^-1 at 568 nm. The quantum efficiency for forming pink membrane from blue membrane is much lower than that for forming the photointermediate of the blue membrane's photocycle. Their relationship is similar to that of light-adaptation and photocycle of the dark-adapted purple membrane.
