3, 3, 3-Trifluoropropyl(methyl)cyclosiloxanes

The influence of the number of 3, 3, 3-trifluoropropyl(methyl)siloxane links (/) in the cyclotetrasiloxanes _mD_4-m, where D represents the dimethylsiloxane link and m=0–4, on the rearrangement of these compounds in acetone solution under the action of sodium siloxanolate has been studied. The rearrangement takes place with the formation of a linear polysiloxane the degradation of which yields, in addition to the initial ring, cyclosiloxanes with a different structure. The rate of rearrangement of _mD_4-m and of the formation of a linear polysiloxane rises with an increase in m from 0 to 3. The equilibrium concentration of the linear polysiloxane formed from _mD_4-m is inversely proportional to m. Results have been obtained on the kinetics of the formation of the cyclosiloxanes _mD_n, where m=0–5, n=0–5, and m+n=3–6, in the rearrangement of the rings D₃, ₂D₂, ₃D, and ₄. The reactivity of the siloxane links rises in the sequence (CH₃)₂Si-O-Si(CH₃)₂ < (CF₃CH₂CH₂)-(CH₃) Si-O-Si(CH₃)₂ <(CF₃CH₂CH₂) (CH₃)Si-O-Si(CH₃) (CH₂CH₂CF₃) . Because of the negative inductive effect transferred through the siloxane links, the 3, 3, 3-trifluoropropyl groups strongly activate the siloxane ring with respect to nucleophiiic reagents.For part I, see [3].     

2-Diphenylphosphinoyloxybenzaldehyde 4-Nitrophenyl-, 4-Phenyl-1-phthalazinyl-, and Aroylhydrazones and Thiosemicarbazone

Condensation of aryl- and aroylhydrazines and thiosemicarbazide with 2-diphenylphosphinoyloxybenzaldehyde results in formation of the corresponding hydrazones and thiosemicarbazone. The products give rise to conformational equilibrium between rotational and Z,E isomers, which is strongly displaced toward the E,E',Z' isomer and is determined by the nature of substituent in the hydrazine fragment.     

Arylation of 2,5-dimethyl-4-phenylpyridine

The position of the pyridine ring is arylated by reaction of 2,5-dimethyl-4-phenylpyridine with phenyllithium and p-tolyllithium. Destructive oxidation of the diaryl-substituted pyridines primarily affects the pyridine ring.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1359–1361, October, 1970.     

The catalytic reactions of triethyl- and triethoxy-silane with unsaturated sulphides

The hydrosilylation of mono- and di-alkenyl sulphides of the type RS(CH₂)_nCH=CH₂ (R = C₂H₅, CH₂=CH, CH₂=CHCH₂, C₃H₇, n = 0, 1 and 4) by triethyl- and triethoxy-silane, catalyzed by H₂PtCl₆·6 H₂O, (Ph₃P)₃RhCl and (PhCN)₂PdCl₂·Ph₃P, has been studied. The addition of hydrosilane to the double bond of alkenyl sulphide leads to a mixture of two isomeric monoadducts. The hydrosilane can cleave the C---S bond of the initial sulphides giving the corresponding derivatives of thiosilanes, X₃SiS(CH₂)_nCH=CH₂ (X = C₂H₅, C₂H₅O). Hydrosilylation of alkenyl sulphides is accompanied by some side reactions such as dehydrocondensation, reduction and polymerization. The effect of the catalyst nature, the structure of hydrosilane and alkenyl sulphide on the reaction route has been investigated.

Copper precipitation from sulfate solutions with calcium carbonates

Mechanism of interaction of copper sulfate with natural calcium carbonates, responsible for low residual copper concentrations in solutions and for the behavior of open and closed systems in storage is considered.     

Effect of hydrothermal treatment on catalytic properties of superhigh-silica zeolites

The effect of hydrothermal treatment of decationized superhigh-silica zeolite on the mechanism of n-hexane conversion has been studied. It has been established that thermosteam modification sharply decreases the cracking activity and increases the selectivity to aromatization reactions. Zeolite acidity markedly decreases, but its crystal structure does not become amorphous.

Spectroscopic and thermoanalytical characterization of standard substances for the identification of reaction products on iron electrodes

The in situ spectroscopic investigation of electrochemical, and especially corrosion processes in iron requires well-characterized reference substances. It has been found that the application of spectroscopic methods alone is not sufficient for the detection of impurities in certain phases. Thermoanalytical methods have therefore additionally been used to detect impurities and to optimize the preparation methods. Infrared and Raman spectra and thermoanalytical data on-FeOOH,-FeOOH,-FeOOH,-FeOOH and on amorphous iron(III) hydroxide sol are reported.

Zusammenfassung Die in situ-Untersuchung von elektrochemischen und speziell von Korrosionsprozessen an Eisen mit spektroskopischen Methoden erfordert gut charakterisierte Standardsubstanzen. Es zeigte sich, daß die spektroskopische Charakterisierung allein nicht ausreicht, um Verunreinigungen in definierten Phasen zu erkennen. Deshalb wurden zusätzlich thermoanalytische Untersuchungsmethoden zur Auffindung von unreinen Substanzen und zur Optimierung der Präparationsmethoden angewandt. Es werden IR- und Ramanspektroskopische sowie thermoanalytische Daten von-, -, - und-FeOOH sowie eines amorphen Eisen(III) hydroxidsols berichtet.
