Determination of the pesticides Chlorpropham,Propham, Propoxur,and Terbucarb by low temperature phosphorimetry

Summary Simple, direct, and sensitive low temperature phosphorimetric methods for the determination of Chlorpropham, Propham, Propoxur, and Terbucarb in EPA solvent are described. The minimum detectable amounts are 0.01 p. p. m. for Chlorpropham and Propham and 0.02 and 0.3 p. p. m. for Propoxur and Terbucarb respectively. The ranges of linearity of the analytical calibration graphs are 0.05-7.5, 0.05–10, 0.5–50, and 1–50 p. p. m. for Chlorpropham, Propham, Propoxur, and Terbucarb respectively. The procedure for Chlorpropham has been applied to the analysis of a solid commercial formulation.

Time-weighted average sampling of airborne n-valeraldehyde by a solid-phase microextration device

A solid-phase microextraction (SPME) device was used as a time-weighted average sampler for n-valeraldehyde. The SPME device was first modified to improve the wearer's acceptance as a passive sampler. Then a poly(dimethylsiloxane)-divinylbenzene fiber was used and O-2,3,4,5,6-(pentafluorobenzyl)hydroxylamine hydrochloride (PFBHA) was loaded onto the fiber. Vapors of known concentrations around the threshold limit values time-weighted average of n-valeraldehyde and specific relative humidities (RHs) were generated by syringe pumps in a dynamic generation system. n-Valeraldehyde vapors in gas bags were also generated. An exposure chamber was designed to allow measurement of face velocities, temperatures, exposing vapor concentrations, and RHs. Gas chromatography with flame ionization detection was used for sample analysis. The appropriate adsorption time for SPME coating PFBHA was determined to be 2 min and the desorption time for oxime formed after sampling was optimized to be 2 min. The experimental sampling constant was found to be (3.86+/-0.13) x 10(-2) cm3/min and face velocity was not expect to have effect on the sampler.     

Studium des gegenseitigen Einflusses der Bindungen in Thiocyanat-Kupfer(II)-Komplexen mit Methyl- und Dimethylpyridinen mittels Infrarotspektroskopie

The infrared spectra of thiocyanato-copper(II) complexes of the type Cu(NCS)₂ L ₂ with all isomeric picolines and lutidines (L) as well as those of the type Cu(NCS)₂ L ₃ withL=3- and 4-picoline, 3,4- and 3,5-lutidine were measured. The behaviour of the (CN) stretching vibrations of the Cu(NCS)₂ L ₂ complexes led to conclusions on the different kind of coordination of the NCS groups in dependence on the ligandL. The mutually conditioned strength of the Cu–NCS and Cu–N(L) bonds in the equatorial plane, especially in the presence of ligandsL with the steric effect, was determined from the frequency shift of the Cu–NCS and Cu–N(L) stretching vibrations with regard to the vibrations for Cu(NCS)₂(pyridine)₂.

Optimal double-configuration study of the lowest excited Π states of H2

Various levels of approximation (Hartree-Fock, configuration interaction and double-configuration Hartree-Fock method) are compared for extensive and limited exponent optimization of the atomic orbitals of the wavefunctions. The potential energy curves for the lowest-lying ¹ _u, ³ _u, ¹ _g, ³ _g states of the hydrogen molecule are presented. The shapes of the curves on the highest level of approximation, i.e. with the optimal double-configuration wavefunction, are basically in agreement with previous, more sophisticated and time-consuming work. The influence of the various approximations is also studied for several one-electron properties: charge distribution of the wavefunction along and perpendicular to the molecular axis, quadrupole moment and core attraction energy distribution. Differences arise to the work of Zemke et al. [1], who used a limited exponent optimization with a larger basis set, in the _g states where the orbitals are very diffuse. The differences concern magnitude and location of minima and maxima of potential curves, as well as considerable changes in one-electron properties which depend strongly on the spatial distribution of the orbitals.

Zusammenfassung Verschiedene Approximationsstufen (Hartree-Fock, Konfigurationenwechselwirkung und Doppelkonfigurationen-Hartree-Fock-Methode) werden für ausgedehnte und begrenzte Exponentenoptimisierung von Atomorbitalen der Wellenfunktionen verglichen. Die Potentialkurven für die niedrigsten ¹ _u, ³ _u, ¹ _g, ³ _g Zustände des Wasserstoffmoleküls werden angegeben. Die Form der Kurven im Rahmen der besten Näherung, d. h. mit Doppelkonfiguration, stimmen im wesentlichen mit früheren aufwendigeren Rechnungen überein. Der Einfluß der verschiedenen Approximationen wird auch an einigen Einelektroneneigenschaften studiert: Ladungsverteilung der Wellenfunktion längs und senkrecht zur Molekülachse, Quadrupolmoment und Verteilung der Rumpfenergie. Unterschiede erscheinen zur Arbeit von Zemke et al. [1], die einen größeren Basissatz mit begrenzter Optimisierung verwandten, bei den _g Zuständen, wo die -Orbitale sehr diffus sind. Die Unterschiede betreffen Größe und Lage der Minima und Maxima der Potentialkurven sowie beträchtliche Änderungen in solchen Einelektroneneigenschaften, die stark von der räumlichen Verteilung der Orbitale abhängen.

Résumé Comparaison de différents niveaux d'approximation (Hartree-Fock, interaction de configuration et Hartree-Fock à deux configurations) pour des optimisations étendues et limitées des orbitales atomiques de base. Calcul des courbes d'énergie potentielle pour les plus bas états ¹ _u, ³ _u, ¹ _g, ³ _g de la molécule d'hydrogène. Pour la fonction d'onde la plus raffinée: H.F. à deux configurations, la forme des courbes est en accord avec les résultats obtenus dans des travaux précédents plus complexes et plus coûteux. On étudie aussi l'influence des diverses approximations sur plusieurs propriétés monoélectroniques: distribution de charge le long de l'axe moléculaire et perpendiculairement à celui-ci, moment quadrupolaire et distribution de l'énergie d'attraction de coeur. On trouve des différences avec le travail de Zemke et al. (1), qui utilisent une plus grande base partiellement optimisée, pour les états _g où les orbitales sont très diffuses. Les différences concernent la grandeur et la position des extrema des courbes de potentiel, ainsi que des variations importantes des propriétés monoélectroniques qui dépendent fortement de la distribution spatiale des orbitales.

Relations between subclasses of greedoids

In previous papers many different classes and constructions of greedoids have been defined and studied. This paper documents inclusion relations among all subclasses of greedoids which are known so far. It will be shown that all inclusion relations are proper and that all but one subclasses of interval greedoids are distinct.

Lösungsmitteleinfluß auf das Redoxverhalten von Bistriphenylphosphinquecksilber(II)-perchlorat

The influence of solvents on the redox behaviour of bistriphenylphosphinomercury perchlorate has been investigated by polarographic, voltammetric and potentiometric methods. The electrode process was found to be reversible in acetonitrile, propylene carbonate, N,N-dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide. An irreversible process was observed in nitromethane employing the dropping mercury electrode as well as in N,N-dimethylthioformamide and N-methyl-2-thiopyrrolidinone employing the rotating platinum electrode. Half wave potentials and diffusion coefficients have been measured. A linear relationship between theE _1/2 and the donor number (DN) of the solvent has been found for the reversible electrode reactions. Ligand replacement occurs in N,N-dimethylthioformamide and N-methyl-2-thiopyrrolidinone.

Über einige neue Bispirane

We have obtained four new bispirane systems in which both spiroatoms are vicinal atoms in cyclopropane or cyclobutane rings and in which the heterocyclic component has the basic structure of 1,4-dioxep-2-ene. We have shown that from two possibilities (bispiran, propellan) the general reaction leads only to a bispiran system. To the bispiran2 exhibiting the highest hyperchromism we ascribed the bispirocoplanar conformation (Fig. 1).
