Zusammenfassung Die durch direkte Silylierung von Carbonamidgruppen mit Halogensilanen nicht zugänglichen Verbindungen der Gruppierung R-CONHSiR₃ konnten durch Umsetzung von Säureamiden oder Säurechloriden mit Hexamethyldisilazan gewonnen werden. So wurden Derivate mit R=CH₃, C₂H₅, C₆H₅, CONHSiR₃ , OCH₃, OC₂H₅, OCH(CH₃)₂; R=CH₃ (vgl. Tab. 1) dargestellt und in ihren physikalischen und chemischen Eigenschaften näher studiert.Herrn Prof. Dr.A.

Klassifikation der verallgemeinerten Regelflächen durch ihre Kommerellhyperflächen

In this paper we investigate (k+1)-dimensional generalized ruled surfaces generated by a one-parameter family of k-dimensional linear subspaces of the n-dimensional Euclidean space \(\mathbb{E}^n \) .     

Conformational analysis3̄CXXIV: The conformation of ring A in the 4,4-dimethyl-3-androstanone system. The crystal structure of 4,4-dimethylandrostan-3-on-17β-yl benzoate

Molecular mechanics calculations indicate that the deformed chair and twisted-boat conformations are similar in energy for a 4,4-dimethyl-3-keto steroid. Earlier dipole moment work on such compounds is discussed. The crystal structure of 4,4-dimethylandrostan-3-on-17β-yl benzoate has been determined. The crystals are orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2₁, a = 17.096 (2), b = 22.136 (e), c = 6.217 (1) A. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least squares to R ? 0.039, R_XXX = 0.038, based on 2168 observed reflections. Ring A is shown to exist in a chair form, deformed as indicated by the calculations.

3-Chloropropyltrialkoxysilanes—Key Intermediates for the Commercial Production of Organofunctionalized Silanes and Polysiloxanes

Silicon and carbon may be looked upon as the two fundamental antipodes with respect to the naturally occurring forms of matter and life on earth: Silicon plays the key role in the “petrification” of inanimate matter, while carbon is the representative element for the “incarnation” of living organisms. If a scientist were to search for a highly efficient method of uniting inorganic and organic matter, he would, at a very early stage of attempting to solve this problem, combine these two natural principles of matter and think of “bireactive” molecules containing a silicon functionality for bonding to inorganic material on the one hand and a carbon functionality for anchoring to an organic counterpart on the other. The title compounds and their derivatives epitomize such molecules: they are wanderers between both (chemical) worlds. Owing to their bifunctionality they are capable of binding to inorganic (especially siliceous) systems as well as to organic polymers. Whether their commercial application concerns the strengthening of polyester resins with glass fibers for use in boatbuilding or the incorporation of silica as a filler in rubber mixtures for the manufacture of wear-resistant tires or even the immobilization of enzymes on glass spheres for carrying out reactions in enzyme reactors—in all cases organofunctionalized silanes guarantee a reliable and permanent union between two otherwise “incompatible” material systems.     

Crystal structure, morphology and composition of magnetron sputtered tungsten carbide films

Summary It is shown that small variations of the deposition parameters during magnetron sputtering of tungsten carbide thin films may result in drastic changes of film properties. An increasing working gas pressure for example lowers stress and hardness values. Simultaneously, the texture of the WC_1–x cristallites turns from 200 preferential orientation to 111, whereas the composition of the films does not change. In reactive sputtering with a tungsten target there is a narrow range from 2 to 3% C₂H₂ gas admixture to the working gas where the films are stochiometric (WC) and hard, and grain size and morphology are similar to that of non-reactively sputtered films. The generation of different crystallite structures and orientations in the range of 0–3% C₂H₂ admixtures are used to produce a multiphase thin film with extremely low crack propagation.

Sound propagation in metallic glasses—a new look at the tunneling model

A variety of amorphous metals exhibit a characteristic behavior in their acoustic properties at low frequencies which differs from the predictions of the standard tunneling model. We point out that a lower cut-off _min for the tunnel matrix element, which is needed for consistency of the tunneling model, leads to an upper bound on relaxation times induced by the conduction electrons. We derive explicit expressions for the velocity shift and internal friction for the normalconducting and superconducting case. It is shown that a maximum relaxation time plays an essential role at audio frequencies. The corresponding change of the acoustic properties is in qualitative agreement with vibrating reed experiments.     

Enhancement of the solubilities of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by weak hydrogen bonds with water

Summary The thermodynamics of mobile order is applied to predict the aqueous solubility of liquid and solid aliphatic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The solubility values are mainly determined by the magnitude of the hydrophobic effect. However, contrary to the solubilities of the alkanes, the solubilities of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water predicted in absence of solute-solvent hydrogen (H) bonds are systematically too low. This shows the contribution of weak specific interactions between the OH groups and the electrons of the aromatic substances. According to the theory, these interactions are characterized by a stability bility constant K_o which can be derived from solubility data. At 25°C, this constant amounts to 80 cm³/mol, the order of magnitude of which can be explained by the competition of these intermolecular bonds with the rather weak self-association bonds in the secondary chains of water.
