Efficient synthesis of [1,2,3]triazolo[5,1-c][1,4]benzoxazines through palladium-copper catalysis

A wide variety of [1,2,3]triazolo[5,1-c][1,4]benzoxazines were synthesized through palladium-copper catalyzed reactions of 1-azido-2-(prop-2-ynyloxy)benzene with aryl/vinyl iodides. A plausible reaction mechanism has also been proposed.     

High-performance liquid chromatographic enantioseparation of methanobenzazocines

Chiral recognition and resolution of methanobenzazocines was investigated by HPLC using polysaccharide, Pirkle-type, native and derivatized β-cyclodextrin chiral stationary phases. Enantioseparation of phenyl substituted 2,6-methanobenzazocines was achieved with multiple chiral stationary phases throughout the classes described. Chiral resolution of the enantiomers of 1,5-methano-3-methyl-6-oxo-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydro-3-benzazocine was produced on both polysaccharide and Pirkle-type phases. In the case of 1,5-methano-3-methyl-6-phenyl-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydro-3-benzazocine only a dinitrophenyl substituted β-cyclodextrin produced a separation of enantiomers.     

Polyelectrolyte multilayers as stationary phases for open tubular ion chromatography

Polyelectrolyte multilayers deposited on the wall of fused silica capillaries were used as stationary phases in open tubular ion chromatography. The multilayers were formed by flushing the capillaries with solutions of polyanions and polycations such as polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride and dextran sulphate. Columns with several bi-layers were constructed and used in low pressure non-suppressed open tubular ion chromatography of common inorganic anions (F⁻, Cl⁻, NO₃⁻) and cations (Li⁺, Na⁺, NH₄⁺, K⁺, Cs⁺) with contactless conductometric detection. Using sodium benzoate and tartaric acid eluents the separations were typically achieved in less than 35 min with separation efficiencies between 2000 and 9000 theoretical plates. A bi-functional column was prepared that contains both anionic and cationic functional groups and was used for simultaneous separation of anions and cations.     

Synthesis and X-ray crystallographic studies of Ni (II) and Cu (II) complexes of [5-(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4] oxadiazole-2-thione/thiol formed by transformation of N-(pyridine-4-carbonyl)-hydrazine carbodithioate in the presence of ethylenediamine

The reaction of [M(H₂L)₂] [M = Ni(II) Cu(II)] (K⁺H₂L⁻ = N-(pyridine-4-carbonyl)-hydrazine carbodithioate) with excess of ethylenediamine (en) gave mixed ligand complexes [Ni(en)₂(4-pytone)₂] (4-pytone = 5-(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione), and [Cu(en)₂](4-pytol)₂·H₂O (4-pytol = 5-(4-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thiol). The metal complexes have been characterized with the aid of elemental analyses, IR, magnetic susceptibility and single crystal X-ray studies. Complexes (1) and (2) crystallize in monoclinic system, space group P_{1 21}/n₁ and C₂/c, respectively. The ligand after cyclization is present in the deprotonated thiol form in the Cu(II) complex where it is ionically bonded through sulfur. In the Ni(II) complex (1) bonding of the ligand take place through oxadiazole nitrogen and the ligand exists as the thione form.     

Solubility of hydrocarbons in water: Experimental measurements and modeling using a group contribution with association equation of state (GCA-EoS)

In this communication, new experimental data on the solubility of n-hexane, cyclo-hexane and iso-octane in pure water are reported. The data have been measured using a static-analytic technique that takes advantage of a Rolsi™ sampling device in the temperature range of 298–353 K and at pressures up to 0.5 MPa. The experimental data measured in this work at 298 K have been compared with some selected data from the literature and good agreement is found. A group contribution plus association equation of state, namely the GCA-EoS, is used to model the phase equilibrium of water + hydrocarbon (C₂ to n-C₆, cy-C₆, i-C₄ and i-C₈) system. The predictions of the model are found in good agreement with the experimental data measured in this work and some selected data from the literature.     

Measurement of ternary polymer/solvent equilibrium data by vapor-phase infrared spectroscopy

Vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for binary toluene/PVAC, methanol/PVAC and ternary toluene/methanol/PVAC systems have been measured at 100 °C by using vapor-phase infrared spectroscopy. Binary data have been compared with literature data measured by different experimental techniques and agreement between our measurements and others was found to be good. The ternary VLE data indicate that the solubility of methanol in PVAC is not influenced by the presence of toluene, while the solubility of toluene is lowered due to presence of methanol. To predict ternary VLE data, the Entropic free volume and Kannan free volume models and the Flory-Huggins theory were used. The predictive abilities of Flory-Huggins theory and the Kannan free volume model are similar and better than that of the Entropic free volume model.     

Density-and-temperature-dependent volume translation for the SRK EOS: 1. Pure fluids

A mathematical framework for applying a density-and-temperature-dependent volume translation in a thermodynamically consistent manner was developed. Volumetric equations of state (EOS)s that incorporate this translation procedure can be used to generate derived properties, such as fugacity and enthalpy departure, that are based on isothermal departure or residuals from ideal gas state conditions. This kind of translation serves to improve the original EOS and not simply act as a correlation for molar volumes. A density-and-temperature-modified translation of this type was applied to the Soave–Redlich–Kwong EOS and was shown to possess accuracy for saturation pressure predictions equivalent to the untranslated EOS, as well as greatly improved density predictions compared to what is available when using only constant valued translation. The EOS translated in this manner retains many of the important features of the untranslated EOS, such as explicit calculation of volume roots, while having the representation capabilities of substantially more complicated models, such as the extended virial equation of Benedict, Webb, Rubin, and Starling.     

共振光散射方法研究钙存在下十二烷基苯磺酸钠的聚集行为

利用共振光散射技术在不引入探针的条件下,建立了室温下直接测定十二烷基苯磺酸钠(SDBS)的临界胶束浓度(CMC)的方法.研究发现:在室温下,SDBS水溶液的共振光散射强度(RLS)随SDBS浓度的增加而增强;且当SDBS接近其临界胶束浓度时,RLS强度增强显著,共振光散射峰分别位于330和396 nm.396 nm处的RLS强度与SDBS浓度关系曲线呈S型曲线,本文将曲线突升起点处两条切线的交点对应的SDBS浓度,确定为SDBS的临界胶束浓度(CMC),这与荧光芘探针和电导率等方法测定结果基本一致.并利用此方法分别研究了Ca2+浓度对SDBS及其SDBS-聚乙二醇辛基苯基醚(OP)复配体系聚集行为的影响.结果表明,SDBS与OP以1∶ 3复配时,增强了体系的抗钙能力.     

Investigations on the local angular distortions and the spin-Hamiltonian parameters for Ni in sulfides

The local angular distortions and the spin-Hamiltonian parameters (the g factors and the hyperfine parameters) for Ni⁺ in ABS₂ (ACu, Ag; BAl, Ga) ternary sulfides are theoretically investigated from the perturbation formulas of these parameters for 3d⁹ ions in a tetragonally distorted tetrahedron. In view of the strong covalency of such systems, the ligand orbital and spin–orbit coupling contributions are taken into account using the cluster approach. The local impurity-ligand bond angles in the Ni⁺ centers are found to be about 1.4–4.5° smaller than those of the host monovalent A sites in the pure crystals, due to size mismatching substitution. As a result, the ligand tetrahedra exhibit slight elongation in CuBS₂:Ni⁺ and slight compression in AgGaS₂:Ni⁺. The calculated spin-Hamiltonian parameters, optical transitions and the relative intensity ratios show reasonable agreement with the experimental data.
