2-Amino-4,4-disubstituted-5-carboxymethyl-Δ2-1,3,4-oxadiazolin-4-ium chlorides and their recyclization in acetic anhydride

2-Methylamino-4,4-disubstituted-5-carboethoxymethyl-²-1,3,4-oxadiazolin -4-ium chlorides were obtained from the reaction of 1,1-disubstituted-4-methylsemicarbazides with ethyl propiolate in the presence of hydrochloric acid. After hydrolysis of the ester these chlorides recyclize in acetic anhydride to 1-substituted-3-acetoxy-1H-pyrazoles. The difference in the direction of ring opening with acetic anhydride in the betaines of 1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-acetic acids and their thia-analogs has been demonstrated.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1685–1688, 1992.     

Determination of total inorganic iodine in seawater by cathodic stripping square wave voltammetry

A method has been designed for the reduction of iodate to iodide in seawater and subsequent determination of total dissolved iodine as iodide by cathodic stripping square wave voltammetry. The pH of the sample is lowered to about 1-2 and iodate is reduced to iodide with sodium sulfite under this acidic condition. The pH of the sample is then raised to 8-9 before the concentration of iodide is measured.     

Directed polymers in Hartree-Fock approximation

A replica trick is used to map the problem of directed polymers into a quantum mechanics problem ofn-body bound states. This bound-state problem is then treated using a self-consistent method of Hartree-Fock. Ford=2, the exact result of the DP exponents is reproduced; and for complex DP, the ground-state energyE _n n² is found, confirming previous numerical results.

Mechanism of breakdown development in a gas in a subthreshold HF field

The development of a breakdown wave in subthreshold HF fields is considered for the condition that the field energy density exceed the plasma energy density E²/4 > nT. It is shown that the breakdown wave propagation mechanism is controlled by HF diffusion with a coefficient _iE²/4en. A model of breakdown development along the direction of the linear field polarization is constructed on the basis of this mechanism.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 55–60, August, 1989.
