Dehydrogenation of 1-(diphenylphosphinoyl)-2-(N′-phenylhydrazino)ethane and N-butyl-N′-phenylhydrazine

Dehydrogenation of 1-(diphenylphosphinoyl)-2-hydrazino-substituted ethanes and N-butyl-N′-phenylhydrazine to the corresponding hydrazone derivatives is performed. Both reactions were established to involve predominantly, if not exclusively, an azo intermediate.     

Development of Ways To Diminish Corrosion of Zinc Electrode

The influence exerted by addition of -hydroxynaphthoic acid and combined additive Hg + Pb + -hydroxynaphthoic acid on the corrosion and self-discharge of a porous zinc electrode in alkali solution was studied.     

Influence Exerted by Pyrite Impurity in the Initial Graphite on Properties of Residual Graphite Hydrosulfates

The influence exerted by the particle size and the distribution of sol impurities in the initial graphite, and also by pyrite additives, on the properties of residual graphite hydrosulfates synthesized by oxidation in the CrO₃-H₂SO₄ system was studied.     

Composition and Structure of Films Formed in Etching of Nickel in a Ni(NO3)2 Solution with NiCl2 and NaNO2 Additives

The composition and structure of films formed in etching of nickel in a Ni(NO₃)₂ solution in the presence of Cl^- and NO₂ ^- ions was studied.     

Photolysis of hexamethyldisilane at 206 nm

The photolysis of Me₆Si₂ at 206 nm results in two main decomposition processes: simple Si---Si bond breaking with a quantum yield of Φ = 0.21 ± 0.03, and Me₃SiH elimination with the concomitant formation of Me₂SiCH₂ with Φ = 0.18 ± 0.01. There is also a minor decomposition channel with a very small quantum yield, Φ = (5.6 ± 0.2) × 10⁻³, which results in the formation of Me₄Si and Me₂Si. The main fate of the excited Me₆Si₂ molecule produced during photolysis is stabilization by collisional deactivation. The end products observed indicate that the reaction pathways followed by the main intermediates, Me₃Si and Me₂SiCH₂, are the same as those found in the photolysis of Me₄Si (Ahmed et al., J. Photochem. Photobiol. A: Chem. 86 (1995) 33).

Detection and synthesis of a synergist of the sex pheromone of the cotton bollworm

The synergisic properties of docosa-5Z, 17Z-diene — one of the by-products of the synthesis of the synthetic cotton bollworm pheromone — have been revealed.A. S.

Synthesis of the first stable carborane containing simple enol

A carborane-containing stable simple enol — 1-2-isopropyl-o-carboran-I-yl)-1-phenyl2-mesityl-2-lrydroxyctlrylcne — has been synthesized. This enol does not isomerize to the starting ketone or keto-enol mixture even after prolonged heating in benzene in the presence of CF₃COOH.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
