Ion-Bearing Propellers: Alkali Metal Complexes of Tris(2-alkoxyphenyl)amine Ionophores

NMR spectroscopic studies reveal that binding of Na(+) by tris(2-methoxyphenyl)amine (3) brings two of these tripod ethers together about the metal ion; the related double-tripod-ether ionophore 1,2-bis[2-(bis(2-methoxyphenyl)amino)phenoxy]ethane (4), in which two triarylamines are covalently attached, binds LiI, LiBPh(4), NaI, NaBPh(4), and KB(4-ClPh)(4). Dynamic NMR puts lower limits on binding free energies of 4 for Na(+) (71.8 kJ mol(-)(1)) and K(+) (66.8 kJ mol(-)(1)) ions. X-ray studies of 3(2).NaBPh(4), 4.NaBPh(4), 4.NaB(4-ClPh)(4), and 4.KB(4-ClPh)(4).CH(3)NO(2) show eight-coordinate M(+) ions bound between crystallographically independent, homochiral triarylamine tripod ethers in structures reminiscent of alkali metal [2.2.2] cryptates. Complexes crystallize as follows: 3(2).NaBPh(4), monoclinic, P2(1)/c, Z = 4, a = 10.701(3) ?, b = 37.593(3) ?, c = 13.774(2) ?, and beta = 98.24(2) degrees; 4.NaBPh(4), triclinic, P&onemacr;, Z = 2, a = 12.157(1) ?, b = 14.811(1) ?, c = 15.860(2) ?, alpha = 105.400(8) degrees, beta = 91.594(9) degrees, and gamma = 95.354(8) degrees; 4.NaB(4-ClPh)(4), monoclinic, P2(1)/n, Z = 4, a = 13.652(5) ?, b = 18.75(1) ?, c = 22.805(5) ?, and beta = 92.21(5) degrees; 4.KB(4-ClPh)(4).CH(3)NO(2), monoclinic, Pn, Z = 2, a = 13.663(4) ?, b = 12.228(3) ?, c = 18.712(8) ?, and beta = 91.45(3) degrees. They show variable N-M-N angles; 3(2).NaBPh(4) is surprisingly bent ( angleN-Na-N = 154.5 degrees ), while the 4.M(+) complexes are normal: nearly linear for Na(+) ( angleN-Na-N = 178.6, 178.1 degrees ) and again bent with the larger K(+) ( angleN-K-N = 164.5 degrees ). Finally, free 4 is structurally similar to 3; it crystallizes in the triclinic space group P&onemacr;, with Z = 2, a = 8.068(1) ?, b = 14.599(2) ?, c = 16.475(3) ?, alpha = 115.43(1) degrees, beta = 92.51(1) degrees, and gamma = 90.40(1) degrees.     

Synthesis and properties of pyrimidinylalkylphosphonic acids

Conclusions Some esters of -(oxodihydro-N-pyrimidinyl)butyl- and -(oxodihydro-N-pyrimidinyi)pentylphosphonic acids, and also some diphenyl -(2,4-dioxo-6-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-N-pyrimidinyl)alkyl phosphates, were synthesized.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1397–1401, June, 1975.

Angular dependences of spin-wave resonance spectra of inhomogeneous films with orthorhombic anisotropy

Zero spin-wave mode in inhomogeneous magnetic films with orthorhombic anisotropy has been found to exhibit a change of its localization region in two of three typical angular dependences of resonance fields of high-intensity modes. It has been shown that the anisotropy fields on both sides of the film can be determined from the resonance fields of the zero and uppermost high-intensity spin-wave modes of spin-wave resonance spectra.     

Body forces equivalent to jumps of stresses and displacements in the Biot model of an anisotropic porous medium

Formulas for the body forces equivalent to given jumps of stresses and displacements in the anisotropic Biot model are obtained. Similarly to the case of elastic media, Betti's identity, the reciprocity relations, and the representation integrals for a porous media are derived first. The equivalent body forces are obtained by applying the representation integrals to a volume with surfaces of discontinuity. Some physical consequences are indicated, and examples of equivalent body forces for the isotropic Biot model are provided.Translated fromZapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI, Vol. 239, 1997, pp. 33–44.The author wishes to express his sincere gratitude to V.

Effect of the difference in the uniform resonance fields in the layers of a bilayer film on spin-wave resonance spectra

It is shown that effective spin pinning in a multilayer can be provided by both the layer that is in the state of reactive (elastic) medium and (at a sufficiently large difference in the uniform-resonance fields) by the layer serving a dispersive medium for spin waves.
