Determination of EDTA by catalytic amperometric and catalytic potentiometric titration at a small constant current

Summary Amperometric and potentiometric methods at a small constant current were developed to follow the course of catalytic titrations. In ammoniacal medium EDTA was determined by titration with 0.1 M copper(II) chloride in the presence of hydrogen peroxide as the indicator. Amounts of 42.26–126.87 mg of EDTA were determined with a maximal average deviation of 0.55 %. The results obtained are in good agreement with those of comparable methods.

Bestimmung von ÄDTA mit Hilfe der katalytischen amperometrischen und der katalytischen potentiometrischen Titration bei kleinem konstantem Strom

Zusammenfassung Die amperometrische und die potentiometrische Methode bei kleinem konstantem Strom wurden für die Verfolgung katalytischer Titrationen ausgearbeitet. ÄDTA wurde in Ammoniakmedium mit 0,1 M Kupfer(II)-chlorid in Anwesenheit von Wasserstoffperoxid als Indicator titriert. Mengen von 42,26–126,87 mg ÄDTA wurden mit einer mittleren Abweichung von 0,55% bestimmt. Die Ergebnisse stimmen gut mit denen vergleichbarer Methoden überein.

Saturated heterocycles. Part 216 . Synthesis,structure and ring opening of trans-perhydro-1,4-benzoxazepin-3-one derivatives

trans-Perhydro-1,4-benzoxazepin-3-ones 2a-c were synthesized and transformed to condensed-skeleton perhydro-trans-1,4-benzoxazepines 3a,b , the thiones 4a,b , the urea derivatives 5a,b , and N-acylated compounds 6a-e . Compounds 6b,d were ring-opened by hydrochloric acid in ethanol to yield trans-2-(1-carbethoxyethoxy)-1-acylaminomethylcyclohexane derivatives 7b,d . The ¹H- and ¹³C-nmr investigation and X-ray analysis of 5b and 6c,d proved that the expected N-acylated derivatives were formed and that both rings of the trans anellated compounds have a chair conformation.     

Fused 1,2,4-triazole heterocycles. IV. Synthesis of four new heterocyclic ring systems of [1,2,4]triazolo[1,3]thiazinoquinolines

Syntheses of 5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[5′,1′:2,3][1,3]thiazino[5,4-c]quinolines 8, 5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3′,4′:2)3][1,3]thiazino[5,4-c]quinolines 9, 5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[5′,1′:2,3][1,3]thiazino[5,6-c]quinolines 14 and 5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3′,4′:2,3][1,3]thiazino[5,6-c]quinolines 15 are described starting from 4-chloro-3-chloromethylquinaldine (4) and 1,2,4-triazole-5-thiols 5 taking advantage of different reactivity of the chlorine atoms of 4 under different reaction conditions. The structures of products 8, 9, 14 and 15 and the intermediates leading to them were confirmed by desulfurization, unequivocal syntheses and nmr spectroscopy as well.     

Complexes of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) with 4-chloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid anion

The complexes of 4-chloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid anion with Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺ were obtained as polycrystalline solids with general formula M(C₈H₆ClO₃)₂·nH₂O and colours typical for M(II) ions (Mn – slightly pink, Co – pink, Ni – slightly green, Cu – turquoise and Zn – white). The results of elemental, thermal and spectral analyses suggest that compounds of Mn(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) are tetrahydrates whereas those of Co(II) and Ni(II) are pentahydrates. The carboxylate groups in these complexes are monodentate. The hydrates of 4-chloro-2-methoxybenzoates of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) heated in air to 1273 K are dehydrated in one step in the range of 323–411 K and form anhydrous salts which next in the range of 433–1212 K are decomposed to the following oxides: Mn₃O₄, CoO, NiO and ZnO. The final products of decomposition of Cu(II) complex are CuO and Cu. The solubility value in water at 293 K for all complexes is in the order of 10^–3 mol dm^–3. The plots of χ_M vs. temperature of 4-chloro-2-methoxybenzoates of Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) follow the Curie–Weiss law. The magnetic moment values of Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Cu²⁺ ions in these complexes were determined in the range of 76−303 K and they change from: 5.88–6.04 μ_B for Mn(C₈H₆ClO₃)₂·4H₂O, 3.96–4.75 μ_B for Co(C₈H₆ClO₃)₂·5H₂O, 2.32–3.02 μ_B for Ni(C₈H₆ClO₃)₂·5H₂O and 1.77–1.94 μ_B for Cu(C₈H₆ClO₃)₂·4H₂O.     

Synthesis and transformation of novel cyclic β-amino acid derivatives from (+)-3-carene

The regio- and stereoselective addition of chlorosulfonyl isocyanate to (+)-3-carene 1 resulted in β-lactam 2, which was converted to N-Boc-β-amino acid 4, β-amino ester 7, and carboxamide derivatives 18 and 20 via N-Boc activation and mild ring opening. The corresponding β-amino ester 7 was transformed to 2-thioxopyrimidin-4-one 11 and 2,4-pyrimidinedione 13. LAH reduction of 5 and 7 resulted in amino alcohols 6 and 8. The reaction of 8 with phenyl isothiocyanate, followed by cyclisation, furnished 1,3-oxazine 15.     

On differentiability of solutions with respect to parameters in neutral differential equations with state-dependent delays

In this paper, we consider a class of nonlinear neutral differential equations with state-dependent delays in both the neutral and the retarded terms. We study well-posedness and continuous dependence issues and differentiability of the parameter map with respect to the initial function and other possibly infinite dimensional parameters in a pointwise sense and also in the C-norm.     

Statistical convergence of sequences and series of complex numbers with applications in Fourier Analysis and Summability

This is a survey paper on recent results indicated in the title. In contrast to the famous examples of Kolmogorov and Fejér on the pointwise divergence of Fourier series, the statistical convergence of the Fourier series of any integrable function takes place at almost every point; and the statistical convergencr of the Fourier series of any continuous function is uniform. Furthermore, Tauberian conditions are also presented, under which ordinary convergence of any sequence of real or complex numbers follows from its statistical summability.     

The Lp dual Minkowski problem for p > 1 and q > 0

General $L_p$ dual curvature measures have recently been introduced by Lutwak, Yang and Zhang [24]. These new measures unify several other geometric measures of the Brunn–Minkowski theory and the dual Brunn–Minkowski theory. $L_p$ dual curvature measures arise from qth dual intrinsic volumes by means of Alexandrov-type variational formulas. Lutwak, Yang and Zhang [24] formulated the $L_p$ dual Minkowski problem, which concerns the characterization of $L_p$ dual curvature measures. In this paper, we solve the existence part of the $L_p$ dual Minkowski problem for $p>1$ and $q>0$, and we also discuss the regularity of the solution.
