{Δ‐1,4,7,10‐Tetrakis[(S)‐2‐hydroxy­propyl‐κO]‐1,4,7,10‐tetra­aza­cyclo­do­dec­ane‐κ4N}cad­mium(II) 4‐nitrophenolate per­chlor­ate hydrate

Crystallization of [Cd(S‐thpc12)](ClO₄)₂·H₂O {S‐thpc12 is 1,4,7,10‐tetra­kis[(S)‐2‐hy­drox­y­propyl]‐1,4,7,10‐tetra­aza­cy­clo‐do­dec­ane} in the presence of sodium p‐nitrophenolate forms the title complex, [Cd(C₂₀H₄₄N₄O₄)](C₆H₄NO₃)(ClO₄)·H₂O, in which p‐nitrophenolate and water separately hydrogen bond to a different pair of cis‐related pendant hydroxyl groups which, together with the four N atoms, are themselves bound to Cd^II in an approximately square antiprismatic arrangement. The diastereoselectivity of the complex‐forming process is apparent from the fact that both different disymmetric cations in the asymmetric unit have the same Δ helicity.     

Synthesis of alkylpyrroles by use of a vinamidinium salt

The synthesis of alkyl-substituted 2-pyrrolecarboxylate esters has been accomplished by the condensation reaction of a symmetrical vinamidinium salt and glycine ester derivatives.     

Modelling the Flow of Carbon Dioxide Through Beds of Cereal Grains

The insect population in grain stores can be kept under control by maintaining a high concentration of CO₂ gas (greater than 35%) throughout the grain bed. In this paper the initial phase of this process is considered, where the gas is introduced into the bed. The flow of CO₂ through the grain bulk is modelled as fluid flow in a porous medium and the effect of advection, dispersion, sorption and curvilinear isobars and streamlines are considered. An analytic solution to this problem is developed using perturbation expansions and the analysis is restricted to the dominant term in each expansion. In curvilinear flow, a useful variable is the traverse time; the time taken for the gas to travel from the inlet duct. It is shown that lines of constant traverse time are also lines of constant CO₂ concentration throughout the grain bed except in the narrow region called the front, where the concentration gradient is large. For most grain stores the isobars have a negative curvature and in these situations the front moves more slowly than in uniform flow and the width of the front increases more rapidly as it travels through the grain bed. It is shown that sorption has an effect on the CO₂ concentration in the air for some grains such as canola but not for others such as wheat.
