Chloridionenübergänge in Phenylphosphoroxychlorid, 3. Mitt.: Konduktometrische Untersuchungen

Zusammenfassung Leitfähigkeitsmessungen an Et₄NCl-Lösungen zeigen die Gültigkeit derBjerrumschen Theorie in PhPOCl₂; die Dissoziationskonstante beträgt 1,5·10^–2. FeCl₃ verhält sich nicht wie eine Ionenverbindung, doch ähnlich wie in POCl₃. Zur Verfolgung von Ionenreaktionen wurden konduktometrische Titrationen ausgeführt. ZnCl₂ und AlCl₃ geben 2 Chloridionen, BCl₃, TiCl₄, SnCl₄ und PCl₅ je 1 Chloridion an die Akzeptoren FeCl₃ oder SbCl₅, ab. In Gegenwart von polaren Chloriden nehmen BCl₃, AlCl₃, FeCl₃, PCl₅ und SbCl₅ je 1 Chloridion, ZnCl₂, TiCl₄ und SnCl₄ je nach Angebot 1 oder 2 Chloridionen auf. Sowohl die Chlorometallate, als auch die Chloroniumverbindungen sind im gleichen Ausmaß wie Et₄NCl ionisiert.Mit 4 Abbildungen2. Mitt.:M. Baaz, V. Gutmann, M. Y. A. Talaat undT. S. West, Mh.

High frequency titrations involving chelation with ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid. II. quantitative determination of some divalent metals

The high frequency oscillator provides an excellent means of detecting the end-points of titrations performed with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid or its salts. The determination of various divalent metals is reported, based on both direct and indirect titrations. Because of the great sensitivity of the method it is possible to determine cobalt, nickel, copper (II), zinc, cadmium, lead and manganese (II) in concentration ranges of 1/1000 to 1/6000M.     

Absorptiometric determination of sulphide ion

An absorptiometric method is described for sulphide ion, based on the green colour which is formed when sulphide ions are treated in ammoniacal solution with iron(III) and an excess of nitrilotriacetic acid. The recommended procedure can be applied from 1200 down to 8 ppm of sulphide and is interfered with seriously only by selenite from amongst seventeen other anions examined. The colour system is stabilized by an excess of sulphite. Suggestions are made about the nature of the colour body and its mechanism of production.     

Heterometallic lead-titanium oxyalkoxide precursors to lead titanate thin films

Two lead titanium oxyalkoxides with composition Pb₂Ti₄O₂(O₂CCH₃)₂(OC₂H₅)₁₄ and Pb₂Ti₂O₂(O₂CCH₃)₂(OCH(CH₃)₂)₈ have been isolated and characterised by elemental analysis, IR, ²⁰⁷Pb NMR and molecular weight measurements. X-ray structural analysis of the 1:2 complex confirmed the presence of two Pb₂Ti₂O units which are linked by a common Pb···Pb edge and are held together by alkoxide and acetate bridges. The acetate groups have migrated from the Pb to the Ti centres during the reaction. Hydrolysis of the 1:1 Pb/Ti complex produced clear gels providing the H₂O/complex ratio was less than 4. Heat treatment of the gel results in loss of residual organics below 400°C. The XRD pattern indicates the presence of the pyrochlore and perovskite phases after heating at 500°C but the sample is poorly crystalline. Complete conversion to the perovskite phase of lead titanate occurs on heating to 600°C for 1 hour. Thin films of lead titanate were deposited by dip-coating a solution of this complex in isopropanol. Analyses of the films, carried out using electron microprobe, Scanning Auger Spectroscopy and Rutherford Backscattering, indicated that they were of excellent quality, crystalline after heating at 600°C and with relatively sharp substrate-coating interface.     

A New Triterpenoid Saponin and a New Glycoside from Epigynum aurilum

A new triterpenoid saponin with novel sugar moiety (1), a new trisaccharide derivative (2), as well as a known monosaccharide derivative (3), were isolated from the dried stem of Epigyhum aurilum. The structures of compounds 1 and 2 were determined by MS and NMR spectram analyses.     

Cobalt(II) halide complexes ofN-2-(4-picolyl)-,N-2-(6-picolyl)-andN-2-(4,6-lutidyl)-N′-phenylthioureas

Summary Co^II complexes of various stoichiometries have been isolated from reactions of the metal chlorides and bromides withN-2-(4-picolyl)-,N-2-(6-picolyl)- andN-2-(4,6-lutidyl)-N-phenylthioureas.     

Effect of mixed organic solvents on atomic absorption spectrophotometry of refractory metals

The effect of various organic solvents on the absorption characteristics of vanadium was studied in fuel-rich oxy-acetylene and nitrous oxide-acetylene flames. The absorption of the 3183.9 Å line of vanadium was greatly enhanced by the use of various mixed organic solvents when fed to oxy-acetylene flames. In the case of the nitrous oxide-acetylene flame, the addition of diethylene glycol (about 8% in the final solution) and similar compounds to the aqueous solution of vanadium increased the absorption by about 50%. The observations and the possible role of the mixed organic solvents are discussed.     

Analytical applications of ternary complexes-V Indirect spectrophotometric determination of cyanide

An indirect spectrophotometric method is proposed for the determination of cyanide down to 0.2 ppm. It is based on the fact that cyanide prevents the formation of the strongly absorbing ternary complex between silver(I), 1,10-phenanthroline and Bromopyrogallol Red in nearly neutral aqueous solution. Among 17 cations examined, only mercury(II) could not be tolerated. Zinc, cadmium and cobalt interfered only when present in large amounts. A 1000-fold molar excess (over cyanide) of 14 anions can also be tolerated. Bromide, iodide and thiocyanate interference is overcome by addition of lead nitrate, ammonium sulphate and barium nitrate, followed by centrifugation.     

Transition metal ion complexes of thiosemicarbazones derived from 2-acetylpyridineN-oxide. I. The 4-methyl derivative

Summary TheN-methyl-2-[1-(2-pyridinyl-1-oxide)ethylidene]hydrazinecarbothioamide, HLO4M, has been used to prepare a series of Co^III, Ni^II and Cu^II complexes. Species with two deprotonated LO4M ligands, one LO4M and one HLO4M ligand, two HLO4M ligands and one HLO4M ligand with two small anionic ligands have been isolated. The deprotonated LO4M bonds as a tridentate ligandvia theN-oxide oxygen, the imine nitrogen (N¹ and the sulphur while the HLO4M ligand coordinates primarily as a bidentate ligandvia only the first two atoms listed above. I.r., electronic, mass and e.s.r. spectra have been used to determine the nature of these complexes. One of the more striking differences between these compounds and those prepared with other thiosemicarbazones of 2-acetylpyridine and 2-acetylpyridineN-oxide is that tetrahedral yellow [Ni(HL)X₂] rather than planar brown [NiLX] (X=Cl or Br) solids have been isolated with this ligand. Other differences in the nature of the coordination spheres of the various metal ions occur with this particular ligand when compared to previously studied thiosemicarbazone complexes.NATO Fellow, on leave from Medical Faculty, Istanbul University.     

A novel,stereoselective silyl-directed Stevens [1,2]-shift of ammonium ylides

[reaction: see text] The silyl group of 2-silylpyrrolidines such as 1 plays several critical roles: a stereochemical control element in a facially selective carbenoid addition to the ring nitrogen, a stereochemical "placeholder" during regioselective 1,2-migration with retention by the resulting spirocyclic ammonium ylide, and a hydroxyl surrogate for an eventual stereoselective Fleming-Tamao oxidation. This chemistry represents a novel use of the Stevens rearrangement and offers a short, enantioselective route to hydroxylated quinolizidines such as 3 from Boc-pyrrolidine.
