Molecular aspects of superconductivity: The role of the one-particle term at the gap formation

An exact solution for the electron-vibrational problem of the nonadiabatic molecular system has been obtained. By the quasi-particle transformation technique, the fermionic Hamiltonian has been derived and solved at the ab initio level. Results clearly and unambiguously show that the gap formation due to nonadiabatic electron–phonon coupling is mediated by the one-particle electron–phonon interaction term, whereas the two-particle one represents just a correction to the correlation energy. The temperature dependence of the gap and electronic specific heat connected with the electron–phonon coupling have also been derived.     

Zur Kenntnis der Halogensauerstoffverbindungm

Zusammenfassung Es wurde die Kinetik der Bromatbildungsreaktion nach 3 Br₃+6 OH=8 Br+BrO₃+3 H₂O, beziehungsweise 3 Br₂+6 OH=5 Br+BrO₃+3 H₂O untersucht und gefunden, daß die Geschwindigkeit der Bromatbildung mit den Konzentrationen von Brom und Hydroxylion steigt und mit zunehmender Bromionkonzentration abnimmt. Die Werte der Potenzexponenten der Konzentrationen variieren mit der Geschwindigkeit. Neutralsalze verzögern.Es wurde ferner für die rasche Reaktion das Zeitgesetz –d[Br₃]/d=k ₁[OH]/[Br]³[Br₃]², beziehungsweise –d[Br₂]/d=k₁[OH]/[Br][Br₂]² und für die langsame Reaktion das Zeitgesetz –d[Br₃]/d=k ₂[OH]⁴/[Br]⁷[Br₃]³, beziehungsweise –d[Br₂]/d=k₂[OH]⁴/[Br]⁴[Br₂]³ wahrscheinlich gemacht. Der Temperaturkoeffizient der in einer Monophosphat-Biphosphatlösung gemessenen langsamen Reaktion ist von der Größenordnung 17.Aus den Geschwindigkeitskoeffizienten der raschen Reaktion und dem der Reaktion HBrO+OH BrO₃ läßt sich das Brom-Hypobromitgleichgewicht und aus den Koeffizienten der langsamen Reaktion und dem der Reaktion BrO₃+Br+H^. Br₂ das Brom-Bromatgleichgewicht berechnen.Vgl. die vorhergehende Arbeit.     

Optisch aktive übergangsmetall-komplexe : XXV. Substituenteneinflüsse auf die intramolekulare epimerisierung von tetragonal-pyramidalen molybdanund wolfram-komplexen

The synthesis, IR, ¹H NMR and UV spectra of optically active square pyramidal cyclopentadienyldicarbonyl-molybdenum and -tungsten complexes with Schiff bases, derived from methyl-substituted pyridine carbaldehyde(2) and S-(—)-α-methylbenzylamine, are described. The epimerisation of these complexes, measured polarimetrically at 75–97°C in DMF, follows a 1^st order rate law and represents a regular pentatopal skeletal rearrangement. The inductive effect of a methyl group in the para position of a pyridine ring leads to a retardation of the epimerisation compared to unsubstituted complexes. The rate constants decrease even more if an ortho methyl group is introduced into the pyridine system, since additional steric effects are introduced. If the metal complex contains a 4,6-dimethyl-substituted Schiff base as a chelating ligand, the contributions of a 4- and a 6-methyl group are additive. A benzene ring fused to the 5,6-positions of the pyridine system also leads to stabilisation of the configuration.     

Synthese neuer Aminofluorsilane,sowie Alkoxylierung von Bis (trimethylsilyl)-amino-fluorsilanen

The reaction of aminofluorsilanes of the type (R=H,F) (Me ₃Si)₂N?SiF₂R with two moles of ammonia, or of a mono- or dialkylamine, yields the corresponding amino-compounds, e.g. (Me ₃Si)₂N?Si(F)R?NH₂, (Me ₃Si)₂N?Si(F)R?NHR′ and (Me ₃Si)₂N?Si(F)R?NR₂′ (R′=Me, Et). Analogous products are obtained by reaction of the aminofluorosilanes with lithium salts of amines with bulky organic substituents in a 1 : 1 molar ratio. Alkoxy- and aryloxyaminofluorosilanes are prepared by the reaction of sodium alcoholates and sodium phenolate with (Me ₃Si)₂N?Si(F₂)R (R=H, C₂H₃, C₂H₅, C₆H₅). The i.r.-, mass-,¹H- and¹⁹F-NMR spectra of the above compounds are reported.

A compact olfactometer for IMS measurements and testing human perception

Production of easily controllable and measurable odor stimuli is needed when studying human olfaction, olfaction-related physiology and psychological reactions to odors. Controlled odor producing instruments are called olfactometers. For testing and calibrating new olfactometers or sensor arrays, a reliable input signal has to be produced to verify their accurate functionality. A common input signal in various olfactometers has been the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in gaseous form. We present a compact olfactometer able to produce controlled continuous odor stimuli from three individual channels. For measuring the output gas flow, we used a ChemPro 100i (Environics, Finland) device that is based on aspiration ion mobility spectrometry (aIMS). IMS is a robust and sensitive method for measuring VOCs and is used especially in detecting toxic industrial chemicals and chemical warfare agents, but the technology is also suitable for other olfactory-related applications. The olfactometer was used to produce synthetic jasmine scent using three main odor components from jasmine oil and all the components were diluted using propylene glycol. The dilutions were supplied to the system using programmable syringe pumps, which guided the dilutions to individual evaporation units. We conducted experiments to verify the functionality of our olfactometer. Analysis of the ChemPro100i data showed that olfactometer can use different odor components to produce continuous, stable output flows with controlled concentrations.
