Sorption of butane, propane, ethane, methane, and carbon dioxide on asphaltene

Isotherms of sorption of butane, propane, ethane, methane, and carbon dioxide on an asphaltene sample of known elemental composition were measured. The effect of the pressure and temperature on the shape the sorption isotherms for all the adsorption systems studied was examined. The values of the initial heat of sorption were determined and compared to the energies of interaction of the molecules with asphaltene. The results obtained suggest that asphaltene is a swellable amorphous sorbent.     

Chemistry of indole

5-Methoxy-3-carbethoxyindoles are nitrated primarily in the 4 position. Replacement of the methoxy group by an acetoxy group leads to a change in orientation — only the 6 isomer is obtained. In the case of the similarly constructed 5-hydroxyindoles, monosubstitution cannot be accomplished under various conditions, and only the 4,6-dinitro derivative is formed. The synthesis of the corresponding amines by reduction of the nitro compounds is described.See [1] for communication XXXVIII.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1646–1653, December, 1973.     

EPR spectra of halogenonitromethane anion radicals

Conclusions It was deduced that fluorine is in a -combined state in the anion radicals we studied; this was based on an analysis of the EPR spectra of a series of fluoronitroalkane anion radicals.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 2, pp. 458–460, February, 1969.In conclusion, the authors express their appreciation to A. A. Fainzil'berg for his interest in our work.

Reaction of 2-methylene-3-oxoquinuclidine with nucleophilic reagents

The salts and quaternary derivatives of 2-methylene-3-hydroxyquinuclidine readily add nucleophilic reagents because of the high polarity and polarizability of the carbon-carbon double bond, which are due to the overall electron-acceptor effect of the positively charged nitrogen atom and the carbonyl group. The double bond is substantially deactivated in the base, and the addition of nucleophilic reagents is hindered.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1370–1376, October, 1977.     

Hydrosilylation of N-allylpyrrolidine and N-allylpiperidine

It was found that the hydrosilylation of N-allylpyrrolidine and N-allylpiperidlne by trialkylsilanes, triethoxysilane, and 3H-heptamethyltrisiloxane in the presence of H₂PtCl₆ · 6H₂O proceeds to form -adducts.Communication XXXII from the series Nitrogen-Containing Organosilicon Compounds.
