Spectrophotometric determination of aluminium with chlorophosphonazo I

Aluminium reacts with Chlorophosphonazo I at pH 4-6 to form a water-soluble 1:1 red-violet complex. The absorption maximum is at 610 nm and the apparent molar absorptivity is 1.96 x 10(4) l.mole(-1).cm(-1). The apparent instability constant has been calculated to be 1.8 x 10(-4). The colour of the complex is stable for 24 hr. Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration range up to 0.8 mug ml . Titanium and zirconium interfere seriously.     

Luminescence Quenching between Ce and Eu in LAB3O6

The Ce³⁺ and Eu³⁺ ions in LaB₃O₆ quench each other's luminescence. However, Ce³⁺ quenches Eu³⁺ more effectively than Eu³⁺ quenches Ce³⁺. The critical distances for this quenching are about 15 and 6 Å respectively.     

Common and Specific Features of the Michael Condensation in the Series of 3-R-3H-Furan-2-ones

The Michael condensation in the series of 5-aryl-3H-furan-2-ones with chalcones containing electron-donating substituents was studied. In the case of ,-unsaturated ketones containing an electrondonating substituent, the reaction does not stop at the stage of formation of 1,5-dicarbonyl compounds but is accompanied by intramolecular cyclodehydration yielding a new series of furo[2,3-b]-4H-pyrans. A mechanism of formation of these products was suggested. The structure of reaction products was proved by IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis ofO-methyloximes and nitrones of a series of substituted 4-[2-hydroxy-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)cyclohexylidenemethyl]-benzaldehydes and their fungicidal activity

O-Methyloximes and nitrones of a series of substituted 4-[2-hydroxy-2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)cyclohexylidenemethyl]benzaldehydes have been synthesized, and their fungicidal activity has been assayed. All of them exhibit low fungicidal activity in thein vitro assays and high activity in thein vivo assays; theO-methyl oximes are more active than the corresponding nitrones.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Chemiluminescence flow system for the determination of ammonium ion

A novel chemiluminescence (CL) system for ammonium ion combined with flow-injection analysis is presented in this paper. It is based on the CL reaction between luminol, immobilized electrostatically on an anion-exchange column, and chlorine electrochemically generated on-line via a platinum electrode from hydrochloric acid in a coulometric cell. Ammonium ion reacts with chlorine and decreases the observed CL intensity. The system responds linearly to ammonium ion concentration in the range 1.0-100 muM, and the detection limit is 0.4 muM. A complete analysis, including sampling and washing, could be performed in 1 min with a relative standard deviation of <6.0%. The system is stable for over 500 determinations and has been applied successfully to the determination of ammonium ion in rainwater samples.
