Competitive formation of 4-aminoisoxazoles and 5-aminooxazoles in the cyclization reactions of O-alkylated hydroxyimino nitriles

Base-catalyzed cyclization of O-alkylated α-hydroxyimino nitriles gave mixtures of 4-aminoisoxazoles and 5-aminooxazoles, their ratio depending on the substituent structures and the reaction conditions. The formation mechanism of 5-aminooxazoles in this reaction is discussed. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 1773–1780, October, 2006.     

The reciprocal CuInS2+2CdSe⇔CuInSe2+2CdS system. Part I. The quasi-binary CuInSe2-CdSe system: Phase diagram and crystal structure of solid solutions

The type of interaction in quasi-binary system CuInSe₂ (CIS)-CdSe was investigated using differential thermal and X-ray phase analysis methods. The limits of existence of solid solutions based on low-temperature (α) and high-temperature (γ) CIS modifications and CdSe (β) with chalcopyrite, sphalerite and wurtzite structures, respectively, were established in sub-solidus region at 620 K and 870 K. For certain compositions of solid solutions, the structure was refined using powder X-ray diffraction. A phase diagram of the CIS-CdSe system was constructed. A peritectic process L+β⇔γ takes place in the system at 1260 K.

Etude DFT du mécanisme des réactions de cycloaddition dipolaire-1,3 de la C,N-diphénylnitrone avec des dipolarophiles fluorés de type éthylénique et acétylénique

Structures and energetics of reactants, transition states and cycloadducts of cycloadditions of nitrone with three-fluorinated dipolarophiles have been investigated with the density functional theory method B3LYP/6-31G^*. Analysis of the results on the different reaction pathways shows that the reaction takes place along a concerted mechanism and proceeds more or less synchronously. The FMO analysis shows a strong HOMO_dipole-LUMO_{dipolarophile} interaction as the principal reason for the reactivity in these 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. Regioselectivity of the products of the reaction is predicted reliably by our calculations, the results provide a good prediction of the relatives rates observed experimentally as the dipolarophiles are varied.

Covalent chemistry and conformational dynamics of topologically chiral amide-based molecular knots

The readily available in gram quantities tris(allyloxy)knot of the amide-type 5 (knotane) can be completely and partially deprotected with nBu(3)SnH in the presence of a palladium catalyst resulting in hydroxyknotanes 7-9. These, in turn, react with diethylchlorophosphate giving rise to knotanes equipped with between one and three phosphoryl groups. Sulfonylation of bis(allyloxy)monohydroxyknotane 8 with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride and, following removal of one or two allyl groups from the intermediate monosulfonate 13, give rise to sulfonyloxy-allyloxy-hydroxy- and sulfonyloxy-dihydroxy-knotanes 15 and 14, respectively. This provides a convenient method for the preparation of knotanes with any substitution pattern. All new knotanes have been isolated in preparative amounts and as highly pure substances with an exception of allyloxy-dihydroxyknotane 9. This compound could only be obtained as a mixture with the corresponding monohydroxy-derivative 8. The structures of all synthesized compounds were established by means of FAB and MALDI TOF mass spectrometry, (1)H and (31)P NMR spectroscopy. The triphosphorylated knotane 10 exhibits high solubility in alcohols, allowing its complete enantiomeric resolution with a commercially available chiral HPLC column. (1)H,(1)H DQF-COSY correlation spectroscopy along with H/D exchange experiments and ab initio calculations provided the first detailed (1)H NMR signal assignments of knotanes in [D(6)]DMSO solution. The combination of variable temperature (1)H and (31)P NMR spectroscopy and molecular modeling has been applied to study the conformational behavior of the new knotanes in different solvents. It has been shown that in DMSO solution at room temperature knotanes exist in a relatively rigid nonsymmetrical conformation similar to that found in the solid state while faster conformational exchange leading to the average D(3) symmetrical structure was detected in a number of other solvents.

 采用XAFS,XRD和DTA方法研究了Ni－B和Ni－Ce－B超细非晶态合金在退火过程中的结构变化及其结构与催化性能的关系．活性结果表明,在退火温度为623K时,Ni－B和Ni－Ce－B样品的苯加氢催化反应转化率最高,分别为63％和81％,0．3％Ce的掺入提高了Ni－Ce－B的催化活性．DTA结果表明,Ni－B超细非晶态合金在598和653K有两个晶化峰,而Ni－Ce－B样品有548,603,696和801K四个晶化峰．XAFS和XRD结果进一步说明,在573K退火时,Ni－B样品晶化生成晶态Ni3B和纳米晶Ni,此时Ni－Ce－B仅有少量晶态Ni3B生成．在673K退火时,Ni－B样品中的Ni3B开始分解生成晶态Ni,同时纳米晶Ni聚集并形成大颗粒晶态Ni,而Ni－Ce－B样品晶化生成晶态Ni3B和纳米晶Ni．在773K和更高的温度退火处理后,Ni－B样品中Ni的局域环境结构与金属Ni箔基本一致,但Ni－Ce－B样品晶化生成的Ni晶格有较大畸变,同时Ni3B并未分解．说明0．3％的Ce对提高Ni－Ce－B样品的稳定性有显著作用．本文首次报道了Ni－B和Ni－Ce－B超细非晶态合金中苯加氢催化活性中心为纳米晶Ni和类似于金属Ni的Ni－B非晶态合金．     

ICP-MS determination of heavy metals in submerged cultures of wood-rotting fungi

Accumulation of five heavy metal ions by five species of wood-rotting basidiomycetes during a 9-day cultivation was studied. Contents of Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn were measured using ICP-MS; the amount of mercury was determined directly in solid samples using the Advanced Mercury Analyser. A standard operation procedure for the sample preparation and determination of metal content was developed and validated. Presence of Cd, Cu, Hg, and Pb decreased the accumulation of zinc by the fungi. The basidiomycete Pycnoporus cinnabarinus exhibited the highest metal binding capacity of all fungi tested.     

Thermogravimetric analysis of the co-combustion of the blends with high ash coal and waste tyres

Incineration methods are becoming increasingly important from the view point of the need to minimize the environmental impact of waste tyre disposal. Combustion of waste tyre, one high ash coal and tyre-coal blends with 10, 30 and 50% waste tyre were investigated by means of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) carried out at 20 K min⁻¹ in the temperature range from ambient temperature to 1273 K. And effects of the mixed proportion between coal and waste tyre on the combustion process, ignition and burnout characteristics were also studied. The results indicate that the combustion of waste tyre is controlled by the emission of volatile matter, the regions are more complex for waste tyre (three or more peaks) than for coal (one peak). Also as compared with the case of burning only high ash coal, the incorporation of waste tyre can improve the combustion characteristics of high ash coal, especially the ignition performance and the peak weight loss compared with the separate burning of waste tyre and coal. Moreover, comparisons of the TG-DTG profiles between experimental and calculational results, it is indicate that there is a comparatively important difference, the co-combustion characteristics is the coupling effect between waste tyre and coal. The data resulting also showed that the co-combustion of waste tyre and low quanlitied coal as fuel is feasible.
