Die Herstellung und einige physikalisch-chemische Eigenschaften von Modifikationen des Dipyridin-Dirhodankupfer(II)-Komplexes

The paper deals with the preparation of modifications of Cu(Py)₂(CNS)₂ from aqueous media. The -from was obtained by precipitation of pyridine containing solutions of CuSO₄ with NH₄CNS, while for the -modification crystallisation from solutions was applied that in addition to the above components contained also ammonia. The differences betwwen the modifications are discussed on the basis of their infra-red spectra, their thermograms and their powder-diffractograms. The structural differences are localized in the inner coordination sphere of the central atom. Besides, also the properties of some products of the thermal decomposition of these modifications are reported.

Mechanistic investigation of CO2 hydrogenation by Ru(II) and Ir(III) aqua complexes under acidic conditions: two catalytic systems differing in the nature of the rate determining step

Ruthenium aqua complexes [(eta(6)-C(6)Me(6))Ru(II)(L)(OH(2))](2+) {L = bpy (1) and 4,4'-OMe-bpy (2), bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, 4,4'-OMe-bpy = 4,4'-dimethoxy-2,2'-bipyridine} and iridium aqua complexes [Cp*Ir(III)(L)(OH(2))](2+) {Cp* = eta(5)-C(5)Me(5), L = bpy (5) and 4,4'-OMe-bpy (6)} act as catalysts for hydrogenation of CO(2) into HCOOH at pH 3.0 in H(2)O. The active hydride catalysts cannot be observed in the hydrogenation of CO(2) with the ruthenium complexes, whereas the active hydride catalysts, [Cp*Ir(III)(L)(H)](+) {L = bpy (7) and 4,4'-OMe-bpy (8)}, have successfully been isolated after the hydrogenation of CO(2) with the iridium complexes. The key to the success of the isolation of the active hydride catalysts is the change in the rate-determining step in the catalytic hydrogenation of CO(2) from the formation of the active hydride catalysts, [(eta(6)-C(6)Me(6))Ru(II)(L)(H)](+), to the reactions of [Cp*Ir(III)(L)(H)](+) with CO(2), as indicated by the kinetic studies.     

Improved measurement of the K+-->pi+nunu; branching ratio

An additional event near the upper kinematic limit for K+-->pi(+)nunu; has been observed by experiment E949 at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Combining previously reported and new data, the branching ratio is B(K+-->pi(+)nunu;)=(1.47(+1.30)(-0.89))x10(-10) based on three events observed in the pion momentum region 211相似文献   

Inclusive Λ, Λ and Σ±(1385) production in 405 GeV/c pp interactions

We have investigated inclusive Λ, $\text{Λ}$ and Σ^±(1385) productions in 405 GeV/c pp interactions. The observed cross sections are σ(Λ)=4.05±0.39 mb, $\text{σ(}\text{Λ}\text{=0.63±0.17}$ mb, σ(Σ⁺(1385))=0.74±0.17 mb and σ(Λ^?(1385))=0.56±0.17 mb. $\text{Λ}$ production is dominant in a central region of ∣x∣≤0.4. The $\text{Λ/}\text{Λ}$ production ratio at ∣x∣≈0 is found to be 1.2±0.5. The excess, about 0.2 mb, of σ(Λ⁺(1385)) over σ(Λ^?(1385)) is most likely attributed to proton fragmentations (∣x∣≥0.4), and gives an evidence for scaling.     

Further search for the decay K+-->pi(+)nunu;

A search for additional evidence for the rare kaon decay K+-->pi(+)nunu; has been made with a new data set comparable in sensitivity to the previous exposure that produced a single event. No new events were found in the pion momentum region examined, 211pi(+)nunu;) = 1.5(+3.4)(-1.2)x10(-10).     

The distribution of symmetric matrix quotients

Phillips (J. Multivariate Anal. 16 (1985) 157) generalizes Cramer's (Mathematical Methods of Statistics, Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ, 1946) inversion formula for the distribution of a quotient of two scalar random variables to the matrix quotient case. However, he gives the result for the asymmetric matrix quotient case. This note extends Phillips’ (1985) result to the symmetric matrix quotient case.
