Low-temperaturic template synthesis of macrocyclic cobalt(III) chelates with (N,N,S,S)-donor atomic ligands in the cobalt(II)–dithiooxamide-formaldehyde and cobalt(II)–dithiooxamide-glyoxal systems in the Co2[Fe(CN)6]-gelatin-immobilized matrices

The complexing processes in the triple cobalt(II)–dithiooxamide-formaldehyde and cobalt(II)–dithiooxamide-glyoxal systems taking place in the cobalt(II)hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrix in contact with aqueous alkaline solutions (pH ca. 12) containing (dithiooxamide+formaldehyde) and (dithiooxamide+glyoxal), have been studied. Template synthesis leading to macrocyclic coordination compounds with tetradentate N,N,S,S-donor ligands-(2,8-dithio-3,7-diaza-5-oxanonan-dithioamide-1,9) and (2,7-dithio-3,6-diazaoctadien-3,5-dithioamide-1,8) with Co^II–Co^III redox-process occurs under these specific conditions where dithiooxamide, formaldehyde and glyoxal are the ligand synthons.     

The influence of phonon admixture and non-adiabatic effects in the even-even core on the coriolis mixing of odd nuclei states

Some generalizations of the model for odd nuclei suggested by Kerman are considered. The effects of phonon admixtures on matrix elements of Coriolis interaction are studied. Several schemes are considered for studying the role of non-adiabatic effects in the even-even core.One of the authors B. Ch. thanks L. A.Malov and V. O.Nesterenko for many discussions of some questions connected with the determination of the phonon-quasiparticle admixtures.     

Radiolysis and photolysis of crystalline 2,4,6-triazido-3,5-dichloropyridine: Generation of Quintet dinitrenes

Low-temperature radiolysis and photolysis of crystalline 2,4,6-triazido-3,5-dichloropyridine (TAP) were studied by means of the ESR technique. It was found that the long-term irradiation of TAP at 77 K leads to the appearance of characteristic signals of quintet 2,6-dinitreno-4-azido-3,5-dichloropyridine and 2,4-dinitreno-6-azido-3,5-dichloropyridine; their radiation-chemical yield was 0.035 and 0.012 molecule/100 eV, respectively. The photolysis of crystalline 2,4,6-triazido-3,5-dichloropyridine proceeded less effectively, producing only quintet 2,6 dinitrene with a quantum yield of ～4.5 × 10^?4. The study showed that the generation of high-spin nitrenes via radiolysis of crystalline azides is much superior to the photochemical technique in efficiency and may be of practical importance for the preparation of magnetically active organic materials.     

The Interaction of O2, NO,and N2O with Surface Defects of Dispersed Titanium Dioxide

A combined study of intrinsic structural defects in reduced TiO₂ was performed using mass spectrometry, optical diffuse-reflectance spectroscopy, and UV photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). It was found that the reduction of TiO₂ resulted in the appearance of absorption in the region 0.50 h 3.50 eV (400 2500 nm), which is formed by absorption due to free electrons (a continuum at h 1.50 eV), local centers—Ti³⁺ ions (a band at 2.00 eV), and oxygen vacancies (bands at 1.17, 2.81, and 2.55 eV). The spectrum of induced occupied electronic states in the forbidden gap and the position of oxygen vacancy levels with respect to the Fermi level were determined by UPS. The absorption of reduced TiO₂ was stable on the sample to T = 800 K in a vacuum; however, it weakened in contact with O₂, NO, and N₂O molecules beginning at T = 300 K (surface sites) and T 400 K (subsurface sites) as a result of filling oxygen vacancies with atomic oxygen in the course of dissociative adsorption. The adsorption complexes formed by the interaction of O₂, NO, and N₂O with defects were analyzed by temperature-programmed desorption. The distribution of sites over the energies of oxygen binding was found with the use of a nonuniform surface model, and specific oxygen adsorption species were revealed. It was found that the irradiation of TiO₂ activates the formation and decay of sites and results in the formation of specific O₂ and N₂O adsorption species.

Complexing processes in M(II)-dithiomalonamide-diacetyl triple systems (M= Ni,Cu) in ethanol solution and in a metal(II)hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrix materials

The complexing processes in the M ^II -dithiomalonamide-diacetyl triple system (M=Ni, Cu) occuring in the nickel(II)- and copper(II)hexacyanoferrate(II) gelatin-immobilized matrix in contact with aqueous alkaline solutions (pH~12) containing dithiomalonamide and diacetyl at room temperature, and between MCl₂, dithiomalonamide and diacetyl in EtOH solutions upon heating to$80°C, have been studied. In the Ni ^II -dithiomalonamide-diacetyl system, template synthesis occurs in EtOH solution but does not occur in the gelatin-immobilized matrix, whereas in the Cu ^II -dithiomalonamide-diacetyl system, template synthesis occurs in the gelatin-immobilized matrix but not in EtOH solution. Dithiomalonamide and diacetyl are the ligand synthons in the processes indicated.     

Fast and reversible migrations of N,S-centered groups around the perimeter of cyclopropene and cycloheptatriene rings

The kinetics and mechanism of circumambulatory rearrangements of N-centered (NCS) and S-centered (SPh, SC₃Ph₃, SC(OEt)=S) groups in corresponding derivatives of 1,2,3-triphenylcyclopropene and cycloheptatriene were studied by dynamic¹H and¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Migrations of the isothiocyanate group occur by the dissociation-recombination mechanism with intermediate formation of a tight ionic pair. Migrations of the phenylthio group around the perimeter of cyclopropene and cycloheptatriene rings occur by the 1,2-shift mechanism. It was found that rearrangements of theO-ethyl dithiocarbonate group inS-(1,2,3-triphenylcyclopropen-3-yl)-O-ethyl dithiocarbonate occur by the 3,3-sigmatropic shift mechanism. The molecular and crystal structure ofO-ethylS-(1,2,3-triphenylcyclopropen-3-yl) dithiocarbonate was studied by X-ray analysis.     

Crystal Structure of Ammonium Undecafluorotriantimonate(III) (NH4)2Sb3F11

The structure consists of anionic [Sb₃F₁₁]^2– chains and ammonium cations combined into a framework by the N–H···F hydrogen bonds.     

Organoboron compounds,synthesis of allyl(dialkyl)boranes and diallyl(alkyl)boranes

Highly reactive allyl(dialkyl)-, crotyl(dialkyl)-, 3,3-dimethylallyl(dialkyl)-(= prenyl(dialkyl), and diallyl(alkyl)-boranes were prepared by allylation of esters R₂BOR′, RB(OR′)₂ or thioesters R₂BSR′ (R = alkyl) using allylic derivatives of aluminium, magnesium or boron in exchange reactions.The titled compounds are stable up to 100°C and do not symmetrize even on heating at 100°C for a long time. PMR spectroscopy data show that the characteristic feature of these compounds is a permanent allyl rearrangement, the rate of which increases with an increase in temperature. For allyl(diethyl)-borane at 100°C and 125°C the rates are equal to 2500 and 5000 sec^?1 respectively; activation energy of the rearrangement amounts to 11.8±0.2 kcal mol^?1.The boronallyl bonds in unsymmetrical allyl(alkyl)boranes readily split under the action of water and alcohols, protonolysis being accompanied by allyl rearrangement, crotyl and prenyl compounds are converted into 1-butene or 3-methyl-1-butene, respectively.
