New method for synthesis of lamellar compounds of graphite with lithium

Conclusions The stirred reaction of graphite with molten lithium gave compounds of composition C₆Li, C₁₂Li, and C₁₈Li, for which the identity periods and thicknesses of the filled layers were determined.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 3, pp. 671–672, March, 1979.     

Gas-liquid chromatographic fractionation of polyoxyethylene non-ionic surfactants : Polyoxyethylene mono-n-alkyl ethers

The gas-liquid chromatographic fractionation of the commercial biodegradable surfactants RO(CH₂CH₂O) _H (where R is an n-alkyl group and is the number-average degree of polymerization) can be approached only for 4, as the truncation of the molecular-weight distribution occurs at higher values. Although conversion into trimethylsily (TMS) derivatives improves the volatility of the oligomers, there is only a slight advantage in using this conversion procedure: TMS derivatives have the same elution temperature as untreated compounds above ca. 330°. The use of an internal standard as a reference compound for comparison of peak areas is a useful procedure, which has been tentatively applied to the reconstruction of the distribution of the surfactant with R = n-dodecyl and = 7.1. The choice of the internal standard is discussed.     

Etude de l''addition des organomagnesiens satures et benzyliques aux enynes conjugues, simples et fonctionnels

Saturated and benzylic organomagnesium compounds are shown to readily undergo addition reactions with the conjugated enynes H$\text{C}\text{4}$$\text{C}\text{3}$C$\text{H}\text{2}$$\text{C}\text{1}$HCH₂R′, with R′ = alkyl, OH, OC₄H₉, NHC₂₅, N(C₂H₅)₂, by refluxing for several hours in benzene or toluene.This reaction leads to both υ-acetylenic compounds (1,2-addition) and β-allenic compounds (1,4-addition).

Analysis of degradation products by thermal volatilization analysis at subambient temperatures

In the subambient thermal volatilization analysis (TVA) technique, degradation products initially at ?196°C are allowed to warm up to ambient temperature in a controlled manner under vacuum conditions, and volatilization from the sample tube to a trap at ?196°C is monitored by means of a Pirani gauge. The technique is discussed in relation to earlier TVA work in which volatilization from a heated polymer sample was followed. Design and operation of a subambient TVA system are described, and examples of the application of the technique to the study of the degradation products of seven polymers are considered.     

Structure of ammonium salts of 2-oxy-1,4-butylene-and 2-oxy-1,5-amylenephosphoric acids

The structures of dioxaphosphepane (I) and dioxaphosphecane (II) salts prepared by hydrolysis of the corresponding bicyclophosphates have been compared. In both cases, hydrolysis occurs with breaking of the P–O bond of the fragment at the secondary carbon atom of bicyclophosphate. In phosphocycles I and II, the endocyclic bond angles O–P–O are 104.2 and 104.9°, and the exocyclic ones are 117.7 and 118.6°, respectively. Conformations of the anions in I and II differ substantially: for I it is a twist conformation^C1T_C4, and for II a distorted armchair. The data obtained are compared with those found earlier for similar molecules.Moscow State Pedagogical University.
