Analysis of dielectric relaxations of w/o emulsions in the light of theories of interfacial polarization

An attempt is made to apply dielectric theories of interfacial polarization to observations of dielectric relaxations for W/O emulsions. Approximate formulas for disperse systems in a W/O type were derived from the two theories: one proposed by Maxwell and Wagner for dilute disperse systems of spherical particles, and the other developed by Hanai for concentrated disperse systems. Dielectric measurements were carried out on concentrated W/O emulsions prepared from kerosene and distilled water or KCl aqueous solutions by minimal use of emulsifiers. Marked dielectric relaxations were observed with the emulsions, the dielectric parameters having been determined to characterize the relaxation data. Phase parameters such as relative permittivity, electric conductivity and volume fraction of the disperse phase were evaluated from the dielectric parameters by use of the approximate formulas of the respective theories. The phase parameters evaluated and the frequency dependence of complex permittivity of the W/O emulsions deduced from the theory for concentrated disperse systems are in excellent agreement with the observed data in comparison to that for dilute disperse systems. It is concluded that the dielectric relaxations due to the interfacial polarization of disperse systems of spheres are explained satisfactorily by the theory for concentrated disperse systems.     

MNDO study of reaction paths: Diboration of acetylene

The reaction of B₂H₄ with acetylene has been studied by the MNDO method. It is shown that the reaction is exothermic and proceeds in two steps. The first step is the formation of a three-center -complex and this is the rate-determining step of the reaction. The second step is the rearrangement of the -complex to the product and this step requires a very small amount of activation energy. The activation barrier for the diboration reaction is 12.8 kcal/mol.The proposed mechanism is significantly different from those proposed earlier and explains all experimental data relating to this reaction.

Some Conversions of Thiazoline Carboxylic Acid Esters

We have carried out solvolysis of the previously described ethyl esters of 3-methyl(aryl)-4-methyl-2-thioxothiazoline-5-carboxylic acids, leading to the corresponding acids without breaking down the heterocycle. We synthesized a series of novel esters from the latter by treatment with dimethyl sulfate or reactive halides. Of these, only in the case of the ethyl ester of 3,4-dimethyl-2-thioxothiazoline-5-carboxylic acid did we obtain the hydrazinolysis product (the hydrazide), from which we synthesized novel hydrazones by treatment with aldehydes and ketones.     

Structural determination of carvone, a component of spearmint, by means of gas electron diffraction augmented by theoretical calculations

The molecular structure and conformation of carvone, a compound with a minty odor, were investigated by means of gas electron diffraction supported by theoretical calculations. Electron diffraction patterns were recorded by heating the nozzle up to 128 °C to obtain enough scattering intensity. The infrared spectrum was also measured by using an absorption cell with a path length of 10 m. The obtained molecular scattering intensities were analyzed with the aid of theoretical calculations and infrared spectroscopy. It was revealed that the experimental data are well reproduced by assuming that carvone consists of a mixture of three conformers that have the isopropenyl group in the equatorial position and mutually differ in the torsional angle around the single bond connecting the ring and the isopropenyl group. It was also found that the puckering amplitude of the ring of carvone is close to those of menthol and isomenthol, a minty compound and its nonminty isomer. The determined structural parameters (r_g and ∠_α) of the most abundant conformer of carvone are as follows: 〈r(C-C)〉=1.520(3) Å; 〈r(CC)〉=1.360(5) Å; r(CO)=1.225(5) Å; 〈r(C-H)〉=1.104(4)Å; 〈∠CC-C〉=121.1(5)°; 〈∠C-C-C〉=110.4(5)°; ∠C-CO-C=117.1(14)°; 〈∠C-C-H〉=111.1(13)°. Angle brackets denote average values and parenthesized values are the estimated limits of error (3σ) referring to the last significant digit.     

Electronic structure and the hydrogen-shift isomerization of hydrogen nitryl HNO2

Summary Electronic structure of hydrogen nitryl HNO₂, a yet not identified entity, and the path of its possible isomerization totrans-HONO have been investigated byab initio SCF and MRD-CI computations using the 6-31G** basis set. HNO₂ isC _2v -symmetric and its ground state (¹ A ₁) is less stable thantrans-HONO by 66 kJ/mol (with the SCF vibrational zero-point energy correction). The lowest two excited singlet states (¹ A ₂ and¹ B ₁) are nearly degenerate, their vertical excitation energies being predicted to be 4.8 eV. The isomerization path is traced by the CASSCF procedure and the activation barrier height is evaluated by the CI treatment. HNO₂ in its ground state isomerizes totrans-HONO by maintaining the planar (C _s-symmetric) structure. The activation energy is calculated to be 171 kJ/mol, which is clearly lower than the calculated H-N bond energy (253 kJ/mol). The transition state seems to be more adequately described as an interacting system of proton and the nitrite anion rather than as a pair of two fragment radicals.

Reexamination of the thermolytic rearrangement of 4-halophenyl azides to 2-aminophenols and other products

Summary The halogenation of derivatives of 2-aminophenol with N-chloro- and N-bromosuccinimides at ambient temperatures in acetic acid was studied. With the necessary compounds available, a reexamination of the thermolytic rearrangement of 2-halophenyl azides to 2-aminophenols and other products was undertaken. It is certain that the rearrangement of 4-halophenyl azides to 2-aminophenols occurs but the products identified in this study differ significantly from those reported previously by Suschitzky et al. (1963, 1966).
