Vaporisation et dissociation thermique des sulfures de phosphore P4S3, P4S7 et P4S10 a l'etat gazeux

Résumé Nous avons montré par spectrométrie Raman à chaud et mesure des tensions de vapeur que P₄S₃ se vaporise de façon congruente tandis que P₄S₇ et P₄S₁₀ se dissocient dès le début de leur vaporisation. P₄S₇ donne réversiblement P₄S₃ et soufre. P₄S₁₀ se dissocie irréversiblement en P₄S₇ et soufre. A l'état de vapeur non saturante, P₄S₃ se dissocie au-dessus de 600° avec formation de phosphore, de soufre et d'autres espèces non identifiées.Nous avons mesuré expérimentalement la capacité calorifique de P₄S₃ liquide, calculé celle de P₄S₃ gazeux et son entropie standard. Nous avons aussi estimé l'enthalpie standard de vaporisation de P₄S₃ à l'aide des mesures des tensions de vapeur saturante. Nous en avons déduit l'entropie standard de P₄S₃ liquide et son point d'ébullition.

It is shown by Raman spectroscopy at high temperature and by vapor tensimetric measurements that the vaporisation of P₄S₃ is congruent, whereas P₄S₇ and P₄S₁₀ dissociate at the beginning of vaporisation. P₄S₇ gives P₄S₃ and sulfur reversibly. The dissociation of P₄S₁₀ into P₄S₇ and sulfur is irreversible. Above 600°, in non-saturated vapour the dissociation of P₄S₃ gives phosphorus, sulfur and some unidentified gaseous species. The heat capacity of liquid P₄S₃ has been measured. That of gaseous P₄S₃ and its standard entropy have been calculated. The vaporisation standard enthalpy of P₄S₃ has been estimated from the experimental results on the saturated vapour pressures. The standard entropy of liquid P₄S₃ and its boiling point have been derived from these data.

Zusammenfassung Mittels Raman-Spektrometrie bei erhöhter Temperatur und durch Messung der Dampfdrucke wurde festgestellt, daß sich P₄S₃ verflüchtigt, während P₄S₇ und P₄S₁₀ mit Beginn der Verflüchtigung dissoziieren. P₄S₇ ergibt reversibel P₄S₃ und Schwefel. Im Zustand ungesättigten Dampfes dissoziiert P₄S₃ oberhalb von 600° unter Bildung von Phosphor, Schwefel und anderer nicht identifizierter Substanzen.Die Wärmekapazität von flüssigem P₄S₃ wurde gemessen, während die vom gasförmigem P₄S₃ sowie seine Standard-Entropie berechnet wurden. Die Standard-Enthalpie der Verflüchtigung des P₄S₃ wurde durch Messungen der Sättigungs-Dampfdrucke ermittelt. Daraus wurden die Standard-Entropie des flüssigen P₄S₃ sowie sein Siedepunkt berechnet.

Metallacycloalkanes: I. Preparation and characterisation of α,α′-bipyridyl-5-nickela-3,3,7,7-tetramethyl-trans-tricyclo[4.1.0.02,4]heptane

Oxidative addition of 2 molecules of 3,3-dimethylcyclopropene (I) to α,α′-bipyridyl(1,5-cyclooctadiene)nickel(0) (III) gave the title compound (IV) in over 90% yield. Complex IV was characterized by mass, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Its structure was determined by X-ray diffraction (a 13.7081(2), b 14.638(2), c 9.5139(1) Å, β 110.82(1)°, C2/c, R = 0.05 for 1614 reflections).     

The determination of sulphur in copper,nickel and aluminium alloys by proton activation analysis

The ³⁴S(p, n)^34mCl reaction induced by 13-MeV protons is used for the determination of sulphur in copper, nickel and aluminium alloys. The ^34mCl is separated by repeated precipitation as silver chloride. The results obtained were 3.08 ± 0.47, 1.47 ± 0.17 and <1μg g^-1 for copper, nickel and aluminium alloys, respectively.     

A new approach to binary tree-based heuristics

The goals and limitations of some clustering methods are briefly reviewed. In order to avoid the usual methods which are very demanding on computer time and space, a new scheme is proposed for updating (generation) of, and retrieval from, large data bases organized as binary trees. The method is based on calculation of three distances at any given vertex l on the level n, A(l,n) instead of two. The respective distances d₁(X,A_l), d₂(X,A_r), d₃(A_lA_r) are calculated between the input vector X and the left and right descendant of the vertex A(l,n), A_l and A_r, respectively. The advantage of the method compared to the standard clustering methods or formation of hierarchal trees is that the required memory or computational time is reduced from N² to approximately N log N (N is the number of clustering objects).     

lα-hydroxy previtamin D3, and its selective formation from 1-keto previtamin D3

An efficient method for the preparation of crystalline α-hydroxy previtamin D₃ is described. Also the stereoselective reduction of 1-keto previtamin $\text{9}$ is discussed; it was observed that with aluminum hydride $\text{7}$ is the most abundant product. This stands in contrast with previously reported LiAlH₄ and NaBH₄ mediated reductions.     

Globin chain separation by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Simple screening method for elongated hemoglobin chains

A simple method for the separation of hemoglobin chains from hemolysate or globin, by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, is described. The alpha, beta, and gamma chains can be clearly separated from each other. The alpha chain has the highest mobility, the beta chain has a slower mobility than the gamma chain, while the delta chain has about the same mobility as the beta chain. Hemoglobins with elongated chains can easily be detected by this method. Tak-beta, elongated by 11 residues, moves much more slowly than betaA but is much faster than alpha Constant Spring which is elongated by 31 residues. Screening of several individuals with slow-moving hemoglobins using this method led to the finding of a case with Hb Tak-beta thalassemia and other carriers of Hb Tak.     

EPR-untersuchungen an carbonsäureestern—III: Thiooxalsäureester-radikalanionen

Polarographic and cyclovoltammetric investigation of the thiooxalates 1–6 shows that they are reversibly reduced to the corresponding radical anions. Accordingly, EPR spectra are obtained after in-situ electroreduction. Taking also the electronic spectra into consideration, conclusions about the spin density distribution can be drawn. It is shown thatp^π is higher at the oxygen atoms of oxoesters than at the sulfur atoms of the corresponding thiono esters.     

Properties and analytical applications of the heteropolymolybdates of phosphorus, arsenic, silicon and germanium-IV Determination of phosphomolybdic and silicomolybdic acids via the molybdenum content, with phenylfluorone

Procedures are proposed for the determination of phosphorus and silicon in the ppM range, by extraction of phosphomolybdic and silicomolybdic acids with organic solvent, decomposition of the complex and spectrophotometric determination of its molybdenum content.     

Die IR-Spektren der Phasen ABTe3O8 (A = Fe,In, Sc; B = Nb,Ta) und UTe3O9

I.R. Spectra of the Phases A B Te₃O₈ (A = Fe, In, Sc; B = Nb, Ta) and UTe₃O₉ The infrared spectra of the title compounds have been recorded and discussed in comparison to formerly investigated M^IVTe₃O₈ phases. The spectrum of UTe₃O₉ (synthetic cliffordite) confirms the presence of uranyl groups and the structural relation of this compound to the fluorite.     

On the photochemical conversion of an alpha, beta-unsaturated gamma, delta-epoxy ketone: 3-oxo-6-alpha, 7-alpha-oxide-17-beta-acetoxy-Delta-androstane

The α,β-unsaturated γ,δ-epoxyketone 7 is isomerized almost exclusively to the δ-diketone 9 both upon irradiation in the n → π* absorption band with light of wavelengths above 310 nm (in anhydrous dioxane or benzene solutions) and upon triplet sensitization using acetophenone in benzene. The reaction may be formulated by the cleavage of the C_γ? O oxide bond and the shift of the δ-hydrogen to the γ-position, and thus bears a formal “double bond homology” to the photochemical α,β-epoxyketone rearrangement. Excitation in the π → π* absorption band of 7 with light of wavelength 253,7 nm (in anhydrous dioxane solution) leads to the formation of product 10 as well as to the triplet rearrangement to 9 . With this result a novel partial synthesis of O-acetyl-B-nortestosterone has been accomplished, which has the advantages of fewer steps and higher product yield ( 7 → 10 : ～30% yield) than previously published syntheses. On the basis of the presently available experiments, the mechanism of the transformation 7 → 10 , which constitutes one of the still few examples of enone photoreactions induced selectively from the π,π* excited singlet, remains unknown.
