State of various stereoregulating electron-donating compounds in titanium-magnesium catalysts for propylene polymerization: A diffuse reflectance IR spectroscopic study

Propylene polymerization on TiCl₄/donor/MgCl₂ (donor = ethyl benzoate, dibutyl phthalate, diisobutyl phthalate, diethyl 2,3-diisopropylsuccinate) supported catalysts is considered. The states of the donors in the catalysts have been investigated by diffuse reflectance IR spectroscopy. Data characterizing the distribution of the donors and the active component (TiCl₄) on the support surface have been obtained. Molecular weight distribution data for polypropylene are presented. The molecular weight distribution of polypropylene depends on the location of the donor and TiCl₄ molecules.

Five-membered-ring-substituted 1-methyl-1H-indeno[1,2-b]pyridines

1-Methyl-1H-indeno[1,2-b]pyridine and 1-methyl-1H-5-(, -dicarbomethoxyvinyl)-(formyl, acetyl)indeno[3,2-b]pyridines were obtained by treatment of N-methyl-4-azafluorenium iodide, as well as mixtures of it with acetylenedicarboxylic ester, dimethylformamide (DMF), and phosphorus oxychloride or acetic anhydride, with bases. 4-Azafluoronenone was used to synthesize 9-(p-methoxyphenyl)-4-azafluoren-9-ol, which was reduced to 9-(p-methoxyphenyl)-4-azafluorene, and 1-methyl-1H-5-(p-methoxyphenyl)indeno[3,2-b]pyridine was obtained from the methiodide of the latter.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1382–1386, October, 1981.     

Synthesis of 2-amino-5-cyano-1,3,4-oxadiazole and some of its derivatives

Preparative syntheses have been developed for 2-amino-5-cyano-1,3,4-oxadiazole from the semicarbazone of methyl glyoxylate and some of its transformations were studied. This product is an important intermediate in the preparation of its derivatives.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1. 243–246, January, 1991.     

Nonlinear plane-symmetric perturbations of a spatial-plane Friedman universe filled with an ideal dust

The general solution of Einstein's equations with the energy-momentum tensor of an ideal dust in the plane-symmetric case is used to obtain the generalization of the solutions for scalar perturbations in a spatial-plane Friedman universe. It is shown that, in order for plane accumulations of matter with a density much greater than the mean density of the matter in the Universe to exist in the Universe at the present time, perturbations of the density are necessary at the time of recombination, (/)p 10^–4.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 12, pp. 20–24, December, 1987.     

Mass spectrometric study of 4-azafluorenes

The dissociative ionization of 4-azafluorene and its methyl and phenyl derivatives was investigated. The relative intensity of the [M — CH₃]⁺ ion peak depends on the position of the CH₃ group in the 4-azafluorene ring. It was established that the loss of an RCN particle (R=H, CH₃, and C₆H₅) for unsubstituted 4-azafluorene takes place from the M⁺ and [M — H]⁺ ion, exclusively from the [M — H]⁺ ion for the methyl-substituted compounds, and from the [M — H]⁺ and [H — 2H]⁺ fragments for the phenyl-substituted derivatives. Randomization of the deuterium ions in the 9,9-d₂-4-azafluorene molecular ion was observed.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 246–250, February, 1978.
