On obtient la composition en pour-cent sur la partie fondue du résidu, au moyen de la méthode à la poudre de verre et en se servant de courbes d'étalonnage.

     

Alkylierung ambidenter Heterocyclen-Anionen, 2.Mitt.: Zur Alkylierung von 4-Hydroxy-carbostyrilen

Zusammenfassung Der Lösungsmitteleinfluß bei der Alkylierung von 4-Hydroxy-carbostyrilen (1–3) mit Äthyl- bzw. Methyljodid und Allylbromid wird untersucht. Während inDMF und Äthanol fast ausschließlich O-Alkylierung zu den 4-Alkoxy-carbostyrilen (4–7) eintritt, beobachtet man in wäßr. Alkalien auch die Bildung von C,C-dialkylierten Verbindungen (8–10). 3-Äthyl-4-hydroxy-carbostyril (2) reagiert leichter mit C₂H₅J zum 3,3-Diäthyl-2,4-dioxo-tetrahydrochinolin (8) als das unsubstit. 4-Hydroxy-carbostyril (1). Einige in der Literatur als 3,3-disubstit. 2,4-Dioxo-tetrahydrochinoline formulierte Verbindungen werden als Carbostyril-4-äther erkannt.

The influence of the solvent in the alkylation reaction of 4-hydroxyquinol-2-ones (1–3) with various alkyl halogenides has been studied.DMF and ethanol favor high yields of O-alkylated products (4–7), in aqueous alkali, however, carbon alkylation successfully competes with O-alkylation, affording a substantial amount of 3.3-disubstituted 2.4-dioxo-tetrahydro-quinolines (8–10). The reexamination of a patent showed that some compounds previously described as 2.4-dioxo-tetrahydro-quinolines actually are carbostyril-4-ethers.

Note on the quantitative determination of Si-H- and Si-Si-groups

A simple, robust and surprisingly exact method for the quantitative determination of Si-H- or Si-Si-groups is based on alkaline hydrolysis of the Si-H- or Si-Si-containing substances in a sealed and evacuated vessel and weighing of the volume of water equivalent to the developed volume of hydrogen. The accuracy is ± 0.03% (abs.) with H contents of 1–2%.

Etude des métastannates de cadmium par spectrographie d'absorption infrarouge entre 5 et 40μ. Solutions solides entre l'oxyde d'étain et Poxyde de cadmium

Résumé Par chauffage à 1000° de mélanges d'oxyde stannique et d'oxyde de cadmium en proportions diverses, comme par déshydratation de précipités mixtes des hydroxydes correspondants, il se forme une série de solutions solides de l'oxyde de cadmium dans l'oxyde d'étain. Elles sont solubles dans l'acide chlorhydrique et présentent un spectre d'absorption infrarouge caractéristique que l'on a comparé avec celui des 2 métastannates de cadmium CdSnO₃, l'un de type ilménite, l'autre de type perovskite.

Summary By heating various mixture of stannic oxide and cadmium oxide to 1000° C, a series of solid solutions of cadmium oxide in stannic oxide results as is the case when mixed precipitates of the corresponding hydroxides are dehydrated. They are soluble in hydrochloric acid and yield a characteristic infrared absorption spectrum that was compared with that of the two cadmium métastannates CdSnO₃, one of the ilmenite type, the other of the perovskite type.

Zusammenfassung Erhitzt man verschieden zusammengesetzte Gemische von Zinnoxid und Cadmiumoxid auf 1000° C oder werden Mischfällungen der entsprechenden Hydroxide dehydratisiert, so entsteht eine Reihe fester Lösungen von Cadmiumoxid in Zinnoxid. Sie sind in Salzsäure löslich und zeigen ein charakteristisches Absorptionsspektrum im IR. Dieses wurde mit dem Spektrum zweier Cadmium-Metastannate (CdSnO₃) vom Typus des Ilmenits bzw. Perovskits verglichen.

     

Trace element analysis of high-purity copper

Summary In copper samples trace impurities of the elements As, Bi, Cr, Fe, Pb, Sb, Se and Te in the low g/g range were coprecipitated with lanthanum hydroxide and determined by flame AAS (Fe) and electrothermal AAS (other elements). Reduction of the sample weight results in a considerable saving of time compared to elder procedures and allows to apply centrifugation instead of filtration as separation technique, by which the risk of contamination is decreased. The completeness of separation was examined by analyzing standard solutions. Additionally radio tracer experiments were employed with Sb and Se. Based on recovery data, a classification scheme was set up with regard to adsorption behaviour. High-purity copper samples were analyzed by the procedure described; INAA and ICP-MS were used as comparison methods. Parameters affecting the precision were examined; the main influence was caused by the separation step. The procedure is well suitable for the determination of 2–10 g/g As, Cr and Pb and 5–50 g/g Fe in high-purity copper.Dedicated to Professor Dr. Wilhelm Fresenius on the occasion of his 80th birthday

Zum mechanismus des strahlenchemischen abbaus von polytetrafluorethylen

The present work studies the changes in polymer structure and the mechanism of the decomposition of polytetrafluoroethylene resin (PTFE) exposed to high energy radiation (electron beam). Spectroscopic and kinetic observations are used to interpret the degradation process. For the first time the decomposition of PTFE has been carried out on a preparative scale and new results obtained by analysing the degradation products. The radiation-induced degradation of PTFE is accompanied by thermal degradation under certain irradiation conditions. This is due to an increase in temperature of the polymer caused by retardation of highly accelerated electrons (heat accumulation effect).The kinetics are discussed in terms of the reactions and recombination of radicals produced by high-energy radiation both in the polymer melt and the polymer surface. These are related to the overall rate of decomposition.The primary radicals formed by decomposition of PTFE in an inert atmosphere (N₂, Ar) react to produce perfluorinated alkanes and alkenes. In the presence of reactive gases the decomposition fragments originated will react rapidly; e.g. if oxygen is present in the reactive area the radicals form perflourinated peroxyl and oxyl radicals which finally stabilize themselves by CC-scission to perfluorocarbon acid fluorides and carbonyldifluorides.     

The identification of nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in diesel particulate extracts and their potential formation as artifacts during particulate collection

Summary The highly complex matrix of diesel particulate extracts was analyzed for nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (nitro-PAH) using fused-silica capillary-column gas chromatography along with a thermionic nitrogen-phosphorus detector (TID) and high-performance liquid chromatography followed by on-line catalytic reduction of the nitro-PAH to amino-PAH and subsequent fluorescence detection. Positive isomer identification and quantitation of nitro-PAH are from retention times of authentic standards and their mass spectra. The ease of nitro-PAH formation by nitration of PAH raises the question regarding the origin of these species, whether they are produced as “native” products during the engine combustion process and/or in the exhaust, or instead, formed as the result of chemical conversion to produce artifacts during the sampling procedure. This problem is assessed examing 1-nitropyrene-concentration in particulates of three light-duty diesel engines for different sampling times. 1-Nitropyrene concentrations show only a moderate increase with sampling time under average sampling conditions.
