Synthesis of derivatives of 5-amino-7-oxo(6h)-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine on the basis of 2-amino-(1h,5h)pyrimidine-4,6-dione

The betaine of 2-amino-5-phenyliodonio(1H,5H)pyrimidine-4,6-dione, upon interaction with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate, forms the previously unknown 2-amino-5-diethylaminothiocarbonylthio (1H,5H)pyrimidine-4,6-dione, the cyclization of which in concentrated sulfuric acid leads to salts of 2-diethylimmonio-5-amino(6H)-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-7-one — a new heterocyclic system. The salts serve as the starting material for obtaining 5-amino-7-oxo(6H)-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine-2-selenone and -2-thione.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1117–1121, August, 1992.     

Nonperturbative quantum electrodynamics: The Lamb shift

The nonlinear integro-differential equation, obtained from the coupled Maxwell-Dirac equations by eliminating the potential A, is solved by iteration rather than perturbation. The energy shift is complex, the imaginary part giving the spontaneous emission. Both self-energy and vacuum polarization terms are obtained. All results, including renormalization terms, are finite.     

Vibrational population distribution of ground state BaO formed by the reaction Ba + O2

The vibrational population distribution of X ¹Σ(υ′' = 0 through ν′' = 7) BaO formed in the reaction Ba + O₂ at 0.3 torr has been measured by laser induced photoluminescence intensities. On the basis of the assumed similarity between the Ba + O₂ and Ba + N₂O reactions, these data suggest that a population inversion may exist between A ¹Σ(ν′ = 1) and X ¹Σ(υⁿ = 7) BaO formed in the latter reaction at ≈ 16 torr.     

Röntgenkleinwinkeluntersuchungen an Lösungen eines Polystyrolpräparates mit enger Molekulargewichtsverteilung

Zusammenfassung Es wurde das Streuverhalten von Polystyrol im thermodynamisch schlechten Lösungsmittel Cyclohexan zwischen Entmischungstemperatur und-Temperatur untersucht. Beim -Punkt und nahe dabei liegt das Verhalten eines statistisch verknäuelten Fadenmoleküls vor. Unterhalb der-Temperatur beginnt eine Aggregation. Knapp oberhalb der Entmischungstemperatur entspricht das Molekulargewicht etwa einer Verhängung zweier Fadenmoleküle. Ein Auftreten von kompakten Polymerknäueln ist bei dieser Temperatur nicht festzustellen. Der Einfluß des Fadenquerschnitts auf die Streukurve ist beträchtlich, da der Querschnitt nicht viel kleiner als die Persistenzlänge ist. Trotzdem läßt sich die Persistenzlänge (a=12,2 Å) aus dem Übergangspunkt zwischen den etwa 1/(2)² und 1/(2) proportionalen Bereichen bestimmen, da der Knick im Übergangsbereich infolge der großen Anzahl von Persistenzlängen pro Molekül sehr ausgeprägt ist.

X-Ray small-angle investigations on solutions of a polystyrene sample with a narrow molecular weight distribution

Investigations were made of the scattering behaviour of polystyrene in the thermodynamically bad solvent cyclohexane between precipitation-temperature and-temperature. At the-point and close to it the behaviour of a statistically coiled chain molecule is found. Below-temperature an aggregation is beginning. Just above precipitation-temperature the molecular weight corresponds to an entanglement of two chain molecules. Appearance of compact polymer coils could not be noted at this temperature. The influence of the chain crosssection upon the scattering curve is considerable as the crosssection is not much smaller than the persistence length. Nevertheless, the persistence length (a=12.2 Å) may be determined from the transition point between the ranges roughly proportional to 1/(2)² and 1/(2) as the break within the transition range is very distinct on account of the great number of persistence lengths per molecule.

Preparation of ultramicro-, micro-, and supermicroporous carbon adsorbents by template procedure

The new template procedure for preparing ultramicro-, micro-, and supermicroporous carbon adsorbents is proposed on the basis of the use of two polymers with different thermal stabilities as a template matrix and a carbonizable carbon source. The polymeric template matrix is removed by thermal decomposition in the low-temperature pyrolysis of the polymer mixture, whereas the second polymer component of a mixture is transformed into a carbonizate. The resultant monolithic carbonizate is the polymeric matrix replica and represents a molecular-sieve ultramicroporous carbon adsorbent, which adsorbs water vapor at 293 K and does not adsorb nitrogen vapor at 77 K. The activation of this carbonizate with water vapor leads to a series of micro-and supermicroporous carbon adsorbents with a broad range of the parameters of a pore structure: BET specific surface area S _BET is 610–2130 m²/g, micropore volume W ₀ is 0.20–0.69 cm³/g, micropore half-width x ₀ (slit model) is 0.20–0.70 nm, mesopore specific area S _me is 20–1000 m²/g, and characteristic adsorption energy E ₀ is 15.6–27.4 kJ/mol.

Optical properties of ZnO and ZnO:In nanorods assembled by sol-gel method

Self-assembled zinc oxide (ZnO) and indium-doping zinc oxide (ZnO:In) nanorod thin films were synthesized on quartz substrates without catalyst in aqueous solution by sol-gel method. The samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Raman-scattering spectroscopy, room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra, and temperature-dependent PL spectra measurements. XRD and Raman spectra illustrated that there were no single In2O3 phase in ZnO lattice after indium doping. The PL spectra of ZnO showed a strong UV emission band located at 394 nm and a very weak visible emission associated with deep-level defects. Indium incorporation induced the shift of optical band gap, quenching of the near-band-edge photoluminescence and enhanced LO mode multiphonon resonant Raman scattering in ZnO crystals at different temperatures. Abnormal temperature dependence of UV emission integrated intensity of ZnO and ZnO:In samples is observed. The local state emission peak of ZnO:In samples at 3.37 eV is observed in low-temperature PL spectra. The near-band-edge emission peak at room temperature was a mixture of excitons and impurity-related transitions for both of two samples.     

A search for a thermal spike effect in sputtering

The temperature dependence of the sputtering yield was measured for lOOkeV per atom bombardment of silver with molecular and atomic antimony ions. No exponential increase of the yield was found in the temperature range from 25° to 775 °C, although a pronounced nonlinear effect is observed when the yield of these projectiles is compared,Y(Sb ₂ ⁺ )≈ 1.5×[2Y(Sb⁺)]. We conclude that there is no influence of the lattice temperature on collision spikes.     

Resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (2+1) of the\tilde B and\tilde C' states of ammonia

Resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) of the \(\tilde B\) and \(\tilde C'\) states of NH₃ in a pulsed supersonic molecular beam was observed at 304–340 nm, using the multiphoton-ionization mass-spectrometer system described herein. The observed features are the result of a 2+1 MPI process and correspond quite well with the reported 3+1 MPI of NH₃ in the literature from the ground state of opposite parity.     

Systems Tl2MoO4-E(MoO4)2, where E = Zr or Hf, and the crystal structure of Tl8Hf(MoO4)6

Systems Tl₂MoO₄-E(MoO₄)₂ (E = Zr, Hf) are studied using X-ray powder diffraction, DTA, and IR spectroscopy. Compounds Tl₈E(MoO₄)₆ and Tl₂E(MoO₄)₂ are found in these systems. T-x diagrams for the Tl₂MoO₄-Zr(MoO₄)₂ system are designed. Single crystals are grown and structure is solved for Tl₈Hf(MoO₄)₆. The compound crystallizes in a monoclinic structure with the unit cell parameters a = 9.9688(6) Å, b = 18.830(1) Å, c = 7.8488(5) Å, β = 108.538(1)°, Z = 2, space group C2/m. The main structural fragment is a [HfMo₆O₂₄]^8? isle group. Three crystallographically independent types of Tl polyhedra uniformly fill spaces between [HfMo₆O₂₄]^8? fragments to form a three-dimensional framework.     

Synthesis of pyrimidine betaines with phosphonium and cycloammonium cations

Previously undescribed pyrimidine betaines with cycloammonium and triphenylphosphonium cations were obtained. A study of the UV, IR, PMR, and mass spectra made it possible to draw a conclusion regarding the noncyclic structure of betaines stabilized by an intramolecular donor-acceptor interaction of the charge-transfer complex (CTC) type.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 12, pp. 1687–1690, December, 1978.
