Synthesis of π‐conjugated oligomer that can form metallo polymers

An oligo(p‐phenylene vinylene) that contains terpyridine ligands has been synthesized. Upon addition of metal ions, a π‐conjugated metallo polymer is formed in which the well‐defined character of oligomers and the material properties of polymers are combined. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis, crystal structure and spectroscopy properties of Na3AZr(PO4)3 (A=Mg, Ni) and Li2.6Na0.4NiZr(PO4)3 phosphates

Na₃AZr(PO₄)₃ (A=Mg, Ni) phosphates were prepared at 750 °C by coprecipitation route. Their crystal structures have been refined at room temperature from X-ray powder diffraction data using Rietveld method. Li_2.6Na_0.4NiZr(PO₄)₃ was synthesized through ion exchange from the sodium analog. These materials belong to the Nasicon-type structure. Raman spectra of Na₃AZr(PO₄)₃ (A=Mg, Ni) phosphates present broad peaks in favor of the statistical distribution in the sites around PO₄ tetrahedra. Diffuse reflectance spectra indicate the presence of octahedrally coordinated Ni²⁺ ions.     

First carbamates conversion to amides by simple alkyl group transfer from trialkylalanes

[reaction: see text] N-Monosubstituted carbamates are cleanly converted to amides under treatment with trialkylaluminum. This reaction involves an aluminum-assisted internal delivery of alkyl groups. It can be applied to new and mild protecting group strategies for alcohols.     

Model for nucleon valence structure functions at allx,allp ⊥ and allQ 2 from the correspondence between QCD and DTU

We propose a simple parametrization of the nucleon valence structure functions at allx, allp _⊥ and allQ ². We use the DTU parton model to fix the parametrization at a reference point (Q ₀ ² =3 GeV²) and we mimic the QCD evolution by replacing the dimensioned parameters of the DTU parton model by functions depending onQ ². Excellent agreement is obtained with existing data.     

The solution photochemistry of αβ-unsaturated sulphones

1-Phenyl-2-(benzenesulphonyl)-ethylene and 1-phenyl-2-(benzenesulphonyl)-prop-1-ene have been shown to undergo $\text{Z}$,$\text{E}$-photoisomerisation, whereas 2-benzenesulphonylindene readily forms [_π2 + _π2] photoadducts with 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene, cyclopentene, and cyclohexene.     

Solubility of Solid 2-Methyl-1,3-butadiene (Isoprene) in Liquid Argon and Nitrogen at the Standard Boiling Points of the Solvents

The solubility of solid 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene (isoprene) in liquid argon at a temperature of 87.3 K and in liquid nitrogen at 77.4 K has been measured by the filtration method. The hydrocarbon contents in solutions were determined using gas chromatography. GC–MS was used to identify impurities in the solute. The experimental value of the mole fraction solubility of solid isoprene in liquid argon at 87.3 K is (1.41 ± 0.27) × 10^–6 and (1.56 ± 0.36) × 10^–7 in liquid nitrogen at 77.4 K. The Preston–Prausnitz method was used for calculation of the solubilities of solid hydrocarbon in liquid argon in the temperature range 84.0–110.0 K and in liquid nitrogen from 64.0 to 90.0 K. The solvent–solute interaction parameters l ₁₂ were also calculated. At 90.0 K liquid argon is a better solvent for isoprene than is liquid nitrogen. The experimental values of the solubilities of isoprene in liquid argon and nitrogen were compared with results obtained for selected unsaturated and aromatic hydrocarbons.     

Solubility of Solid 2,3-Dimethylbutane and Cyclopentane in Liquid Argon and Nitrogen at the Standard Boiling Points of the Solvents

The solubilities of solid 2,3-dimethylbutane and cyclopentene in liquid argon at a temperature of 87.3 K and in liquid nitrogen at 77.4 K have been measured by the filtration method. The hydrocarbon contents in solutions were determined using gas chromatography. GC–MS was used to identify impurities in solutes. The experimental value of the mole fraction solubility of solid 2,3-dimethyl-butane in liquid argon at 87.3 K is (8.26 ± 1.60) × 10^–6 and (2.77 ± 0.94) × 10^–8 in liquid nitrogen at 77.4 K. The experimental value of the mole fraction solubility of solid cyclopentene in liquid argon at 87.3 K is (5.11 ± 0.44) × 10^–6 and (4.60 ± 0.76) × 10^–8 in liquid nitrogen at 77.4 K. The Preston–Prausnitz method was used for calculation of the solubilities of solid hydrocarbons in liquid argon in the temperature range 84.0–110.0 K and in liquid nitrogen from 64.0 to 90.0 K. The solvent–solute interaction parameters l ₁₂ were also calculated. At 90.0 K liquid argon is a better solvent for investigated solid hydrocarbons than is liquid nitrogen.     

Thermodynamics of Ion-Association of NaClO4 in Aqueous-Methanol and Aqueous-Glycerol Using Conductance Measurements

The conductance of NaClO₄ at (25–45)°C in methanol-H₂O, and glycerol-H₂O mixtures in a concentration range up to 10^?2 M has been measured. The association constant, K_A, values have been determined, where the conductometric data were analysed by a M S X computer using the Fuoss-Aprano method. The K_A values for NaClO₄ in methanol-H₂O are higher than in glycerel-H₂O mixtures, Also K_A values increase as the proportional of methanol or glycerol increases in mixture. The thermodynamic parameters ΔH°, ΔG°, and ΔS° were also calculated. It is obvious that the entire process of the ionic association in those systems are endothermic ones. The Walden products, Λ_oη were calculated for all systems investigated.
