Polyamide Layer Chromatography. VIII. Preparation of Polyamide Layer on Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Film and its Application to Aromatic Nitro Compounds

Poly(ethylene terephthalate) film was used as supporter for preparation of polyamide layer. The most convenient method of preparation was described. This layer can be cut into any size and its sensitivity is higher than the glass plate supported layer. Twenty aromatic nitro compounds were used to show the behavior of polyester film based polyamide layer.     

Preparative method of obtaining L- and D-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutyric acids

Summary A preparative method was developed for obtaining L-and D-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutyric acids by the separation of racemic 2-hydroxy-3-methylbutyric acid with the aid of D-and L-threo-2-amino-1-p-nitrophenyl-1,3-propanediols.     

Hydrolysis of dimethyl 1-acetoxy-2,2,2-trichloroethyl phosphonate

Conclusions The hydrolysis of chloroacetophos in water includes the parallel cleavage of acetic acid, hydrochloric acid and methanol. The ratio of the products, formed in the parallel steps, was determined, and we also determined the total rate constant for the hydrolysis of chloroacetophos.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 2336–2338, October, 1971.     

Sorption of butane, propane, ethane, methane, and carbon dioxide on asphaltene

Isotherms of sorption of butane, propane, ethane, methane, and carbon dioxide on an asphaltene sample of known elemental composition were measured. The effect of the pressure and temperature on the shape the sorption isotherms for all the adsorption systems studied was examined. The values of the initial heat of sorption were determined and compared to the energies of interaction of the molecules with asphaltene. The results obtained suggest that asphaltene is a swellable amorphous sorbent.     

Protonated Sodium 1-Hydroxyethane-1,1-diphosphonates

Powder X-ray diffraction study of sodium salts of 1-hydroxyethane-1'1-diphosphonic acid (H₄L)of the compositions NaH₃L·H₂O, Na₂H₂L·4H₂O, Na₃HL·5.5H₂O showed that these compounds aresingle-phase. Some of their properties were determined. The possibility of preparing salts of other compositionswas examined.
