Synthesis in the 2-mercaptobenzothiazole series

The reduction of some dihydrothiazolobenzothiazolium salts with sodium borohydride may take place in two directions: with the formation of thiazolidino[2, 3-b]benzathiazolines and with the cleavage of the C-S bond to give N-(-mercaptoethyl)benzothiazolines. The behavior of thiazolidino[2, 3-b]benzothiazoline under the conditions of acid and alkaline hydrolysis has been studied.For communication VI, see [1].

Embedded cluster calculation of the Ce3+ impurity in Lu2SiO5 crystals including crystal lattice relaxation and polarization

Results of electronic structure studies of the Ce³⁺ impurity in Lu₂SiO₅ crystals allowing for lattice polarization and relaxation are given. The calculations were performed by the embedded cluster method combining the scattered wave and molecular static methods. The effect of lattice deformation induced by the defect on the results of calculations is discussed.

An investigation of the structure of butadiene by high resolution infra-red and raman spectroscopy

The rotational Raman spectra of butadiene and butadiene-d₆ are found to consist of discrete lines having small ≈0·4 cm⁻¹) yet almost constant spacings, as would be expected for symmetric or nearly symmetric top molecules. An infra-red absorption band (Type C) of butadiene at 908 cm⁻¹ is observed to have a spacing of about 2·5 cm⁻¹. Both the Raman and infra-red spectra provide evidence for the trans structure of the butadiene molecule. From the rotational constants A″ and ″ the following structural parameters were obtained: C=C---C) = 122·9 ± 0·5° rC---C) = 1·47₆ ± 0·010 Å dy]somewhat shorter than recently determined from electron-diffraction experiments).     

Thermodynamics of Lithium Intercalates in Carbonized Fabric

The method of quasi-equilibrium galvanostatic curves was applied to study the thermodynamics of lithium deintercalation from the system Li _x C₆ (solid phase)/Li⁺ (solution) in the interval 293-323 K and the thermodynamic characteristics (G, S, H) of lithium intercalation compounds in a carbonized fabric in relation to the degree of intercalation x.     

Spin-spin coupling of77Se and31P nuclei in cyclic organophosphorous compounds

We have established that direct phosphorus-selenium spin-spin coupling constants in cyclic compounds with P=Se exocyclic and P-C endocyclic bonds are found in the range¹J_PSe=–708 to –859 Hz; in this case, it is greater for the axial orientation of P=Se than for the equatorial orientation.Deceased.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 4, pp. 776–780, April, 1990.
