Reaction of hydrogen peroxide with perchlorates

Conclusions Silver perchlorate catalyzes the decomposition of aqueous hydrogen peroxide solutions and, contrary to the literature data, does not form the salt AgClO₅ in either ethanol medium or in diethyl ether medium. Silver perchlorate, the same as other perchlorates, does not form molecular compounds with hydrogen peroxide at 0°C.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 11, pp. 2640–2641, November, 1974.     

The preparation,phase relationships,and Eu-151 Mössbauer spectroscopy of europium tungsten bronzes and related phases

Crystal chemistry and phase relations for the bronze-forming region of the EuWO system have been investigated. A bronze Eu_xWO₃ is stable up to 1000°C when x ? 0.125 and in the region 0.085 ? x ? 0.125 the symmetry is cubic. A tetragonal bronze exists at x = 0.05, and an orthorhombic bronze with a structure closely related to the orthorhombic form of WO₃ exists below x = 0.01. Mössbauer spectra at room temperature and at 80 K indicate that in all these phases the europium is highly ionized as Eu(III) with no electron localization to give (EuII) even at low values for x. The decomposition products of the bronzes have been established, and the Mössbauer parameters for the highly nonstoichiometric tungstates Eu_xWO₄ were determined. Both Eu(II) and Eu(III) resonances were obtained, and a cation vacancy model for Eu_xWO₄ was found to fit the data best. In conformity with the foregoing data, a sample of composition “Eu₂W₂O₇” was found not be be a pyrochlore but to comprise a mixture of Eu₆WO₁₂, Eu_xWO₄, and W. The phase relationships for the europium bronze system Eu_xWO₃ are compared with those of other ionic bronzes Na_xWO₃, Li_xWO₃, and Al_xWO₃.     

Use of the CNDO method for the study of the electronic structure and properties of complexes of the transition metals

Conclusions In our view, the material examined in the present review indicates that, in spite of the appearance of more accurate methods of calculating the electronic structure and the increasing possibilities provided for their realization for fairly complex systems, the applied value of simple semiempirical methods, in particular the CNDO method, is far from exhausted. In the near future, semiempirical calculations will probably provide the chief means of studying the electronic structures of complex molecules, by becoming accessible to an increasing circle of chemists.Leningrad State University.

O,O-dialkyl-S-(1-silatranylalkyl) dithiophosphates

Conclusions The reactions of 1-(3-chloropropyl)silatrane with potassium O,O-diethyl dithiophosphate gave O,O-diethyl-S-(1-silatranylpropyl) dithiophosphate. O,O-Diethyl- and O,O-dipropyl-S-(1-silatranylmethyl) dithiophosphates were synthesized by the tranesterification of O,O-diethyl-and O,O-dipropyl-S-(trimethoxysilylmethyl) dithiophosphates by tris(2-hydroxyethyl)amine.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1882–1884, August, 1987.     

Phenylmercury derivatives of aminomethylene- and hydroxymethylene-substituted 1-methyloxindoles, 1-indanones,and 1,3-indanediones

A number of phenylmercury derivatives of 3-hydroxymethylene- and 3-aminomethylene-substituted 1-methyloxindoles, 1-indanones, and 1,3-indanediones were synthesized. It is shown that the preferred tautomeric structures of the potentially metallotropic and prototropic hydroxymethylene keto (hydroxy vinyl aldehyde) derivatives of the indicated compounds and 3-hydroxybenzo[b]-2-formylthiophene coincide precisely. An aminomethylene structure with an N-H bond is realized for the phenylmercury derivatives of the corresponding azomethines in all cases.Communication 28 from the series Benzenoid-Quinoid Tautomerism of Azomethines and Their Structural Analogs.

Local doses associated with119mSn isomeric transition

The energy absorbed by immediate surrounding of disintegrating^119mSn nuclei have been estimated by comparing the Mössbauer emission spectra of¹¹⁹Sn in some tin compounds with the absorption spectra of the same substances after -irradiation and by simple calculations of Auger electrons energy losses. The results obtained indicate that the observed post-effects of the^119mSn decay are due to self-radiolysis and other processes, whose contributions depend on the individual properties of the matrices.     

Fast formation of aromatic cations in cyclohexane observed by pulse radiolysis

The fast formation of cations of benzophenone, biphenyl, naphthalene, anthracene and phenanthrene in liquid cyclohexane was studied by nanosecond pulse radiolysis. Rate constants between 2.3 × 10¹⁰ M^?1 s^?1 (for naphthalene) and not below 2.5 × 10¹² M^?1 s^?1 (for benzophenone) were derived and compared with the corresponding rate constants for anion formation.     

Extended average energy perturbation calculation of the 2s2 and 2p21S resonance state energies of two-electron atoms

An extended average energy (EAE) calculation of the 2s² and 2p²¹S resonance state energies of two-electron atoms is carried out. We take the bare-nucleus hamiltonian as the initial approximation and treat the zeroth-order degeneracy by van Vleck perturbation theory, For both H^? and He the lower state energies agree quite well with experiment while the upper state is about 1–2 eV too high. Our remits for He are comparable in accuracy to those obtained by the 1/Z Hartree—Fock perturbation method. A brief concluding discussion of ways to improve the simple EAE technique is presented.
