Intrinsic Surface Reaction Constant in 1-pK Model of Mg-Fe Hydrotalcite-like Compounds

The relationship among intrinsic surface reaction constant (K) in 1-pK model, point of zero net charge (PZNC) and structural charge density (σst) for amphoteric solid with structural charges was established in order to investigate the effect of σst on pK. The theoretical analysis based on 1-pK model indicates that the independent PZNC of electrolyte concentration (c) exists for amphoteric solid with structural charges. A common intersection point (CIP) should appear on the acid-base titration curves at different c, and the pH at the CIP is pHPZNC. The pK can be expressed as pK=-pHPZNC log[(1 2αPZNC)/(1-2αPZNC)], where αPZNC≡σst/eNANs, in which e is the elementary charge, NA the Avogadro‘s constant and Ns the total density of surface sites. For solids without structural charges, pK=-pHPZNC. The pK values of hydrotalcite-like compounds (HTlc) with general formula of [Mg1-xFex(OH)2](Cl,OH)x were evaluated. With increasing x, the pK increases, which can be explained based on the affinity of metal cations for H^- or OH^- and the electrostatic interaction between charging surface and H^- or OH^-.     

Retention and enantioselective properties of ovomucoid-bonded silica columns Influence of physical properties of base materials and spacer length

The influence of the physical properties of base silica materials and spacer length on chiral separation of enantiomers on ovomucoid (OVM)-bonded materials was investigated. With regard to the pore size of the base silica materials, the 300-Å materials gave higher enantioselectivity, than the 120-Å materials, despite the smaller amounts of bonded OVM proteins. However, higher resolution was obtained with the latter materials. With regard to the spacer length, aminopropyl (AP)-, aminobutyl-, N-(4-aminobutyl)-3-aminopropyl- and N-(6-aminohexyl)-3-aminopropyl-silica gels were activated by N,N′-di-succinimidyl carbonate (DSC) and the proteins were bound. The first two materials showed excellent chiral resolution properties for the solutes tested, and the AP materials gave higher enantioselectivity and resolution. On the other hand, only oxprenolol enantiomers were slightly resolved on the last two materials. Also, AP-silica gels activated by DSC were compared with glycerylpropyl (GP)-silica gels activated by 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole. The former materials gave higher resolution for acidic and basic solutes despite the lower enantioselectivity, whereas for the unchanged hexobarbital the latter materials gave higher enantioselectivity and almost equal resolution. The above results reveal that the 120-Å base silica gels are more suitable than the 300- Å base silica gels for obtaining larger amounts of bonded OVM proteins and that a less hydrophobic spacer such as an AP group and a hydrophilic spacer such as a GP group are suitable.

压力和温度对4-甲基二苯并噻吩和二苯并噻吩加氢脱硫反应的影响

研究了4-甲基二苯并噻吩(4-MDBT)和二苯并噻吩(DBT)在CoMo/γ-Al2O3上的加氢脱硫反应产物分布及其可能的反应网络,通过反应压力和温度对产物分布影响的研究,揭示了加氢脱硫反应的可能机理。研究发现4-MDBT在CoMo/γ-Al2O3上的加氢脱硫反应主要通过直接氢解路径和加氢路径进行,且两者反应速率相当；DBT在 CoMo/γ-Al2O3上的加氢脱硫反应主要通过直接氢解路径进行。4-MDBT分子位于4位的甲基阻碍其在催化剂表面通过硫原子的端连吸附,从而降低了其直接氢解脱硫路径的反应速率,因而也降低了其总的加氢脱硫转化率。反应压力降低,DBT和4-MDBT加氢脱硫反应中加氢路径反应速率明显下降,而其对氢解路径影响较小,但效果却与加氢路径相反,反应压力对4-MDBT转化率的影响大于DBT。反应温度对DBT和4-MDBT加氢脱硫反应中加氢路径和氢解路径都有明显影响,但是对DBT加氢脱硫反应中氢解路径的影响小于加氢路径,而对4-MDBT加氢脱硫反应中氢解路径的影响稍高于加氢路径,4-MDBT分子中甲基的供电子作用有利于相连苯环的加氢反应。

Molecular potential functions from joint analysis of gas electron diffraction and spectroscopic data

A joint analysis of electron diffraction and spectroscopic data is carried out for BF₃, PBr₃, AsBr₃, SbCl₃, SeO₂ and ClO₂ in terms of the harmonic force fields. The scheme of analysis was extended to include the following spectroscopic observables: vibrational frequencies, rotational, Coriolis coupling and centrifugal distortion constants and, whenever available, those for the isotopic species. For ClO₂ a simplified anharmonic analysis was also performed, the anharmonic spectroscopic observables being involved in this case.

Compelling evidence has been presented that the conventional harmonic approximation for the force field in terms of rectilinear internal coordinates yields the simplest satisfactory representation of diffraction and spectroscopic observations. However, a consistently better fit to experimental data was found when natural curvilinear internal coordinates were used. It is shown here that for the systems considered the joint analysis of data from various sources ensures that reliable and accurate values for equilibrium distances and force field parameters are obtained. The optimized values of spectroscopic constants, structural and force field parameters obtained are presented and compared with those available from the literature.     

1,1,2,2-tetrabromodisilane: gas-phase molecular structure and conformational composition as determined by electron diffraction

The molecular structure of 1,1,2,2-tetrabromodisilane has been investigated using gas-phase electron diffraction data obtained at 110°C. At this temperature the molecules exist as a mixture of about equal parts (X = 0.5 ±0.2) of the two conformers with the H---Si---Si---H torsion angle equal to 180° (anti) or 60° (gauche). Assuming that the two conformers differ in their geometries only in the torsion angle φ, some of the important distance (r_a) and angle () parameters are: r(Si---Si) = 2.349(19) Å, r(Si---Br) = 2.205(5) Å, r(Si---H) = 1.485 Å (assumed), Br---Si---Br = 110.1(1.6)°, Si---Si---Br = 107.1(1.2)° Si---Si---H = 108.6° (assumed). The error limits are 2σ. The observed conformational composition (X_anti = 0.5(0.2)) corresponds to an energy difference between the conformers of ΔE = E(gauche) — E(anti) = 0.5 ± 0.6 kcal mol⁻¹, assuming ΔS = Rln2.     

Massenspektrometrische untersuchungen zur elementaranalyse organischer verbindungen—III: Verbrennungsvorgänge im leeren rohr

A measuring system is described which permits study of all stages of combustion processes as functions of carrier gas, temperature, residence time and tube filling. The organic sample is fed at constant speed into a stream of carrier gas. The mixture reaches the combustion chamber within a few milliseconds via a transfer capillary. With the help of a viscous inlet system, a sample of the resulting reaction products is taken and fed into a mass spectrometer. Reaction time and temperature can be adjusted within wide ranges or varied continuously. A plot of the extent of reaction of the various combustion products against temperature at a chosen reaction time yields an oxidation-thermogram which gives a clear picture of the combustion process. It is evident from thermograms of selected compounds that the samples decompose in the presence of oxygen at appreciably lower temperatures than in inert gas. The primary step of the decomposition is “oxidative pyrolysis” which often leads to other products than “inert pyrolysis”. The intermediate products found are partly structurally specific and, especially with nitrogen-containing samples, are numerous and long-lived (for example, carbon monoxide, nitric oxide, cyanogen, hydrocyanic acid, cyanic acid and methyl cyanate). The notorious “difficult combustibility” is largely due to the fact that carbon monoxide, cyanic and hydrocyanic acids undergo complete combustion only at very high temperature. The combustion properties of the “empty tube” can be improved noticeably by a filling of quartz wool and markedly by partly filling with platinum wool.
