Extremal k *-Cycle Resonant Hexagonal Chains

Denote by ^* _n the set of all k ^*-cycle resonant hexagonal chains with n hexagons. For any B _n ^* _n , let m(B _n ) and i(B _n ) be the numbers of matchings (=the Hosoya index) and the number of independent sets (=the Merrifield–Simmons index) of B _n , respectively. In this paper, we give a characterization of the k ^*-cycle resonant hexagonal chains, and show that for any B _n ^* _n , m(H _n )m(B _n ) and i(H _n )i(B _n ), where H _n is the helicene chain. Moreover, equalities hold only if B _n =H _n .

As12Se44—: ein neuartiges Selenoarsenatanion mit einem Polyarsenkäfig in der Verbindung [Co(NH3)6]2As12Se4 · 12 NH3

As₁₂Se₄^4—: a New Selenoarsenate Anion with a Polyarsenic Cage in the Compound [Co(NH₃)₆]₂As₁₂Se₄ · 12 NH₃ Orange coloured crystals of [Co(NH₃)₆]₂As₁₂Se₄ · 12 NH₃ were prepared by the reduction of As₄Se₄ with a solution of sodium in liquid ammonia and subsequent precipitation with CoBr₂. The X‐ray structure determination shows them to contain the selenoarsenate anion As₁₂Se₄^4—, which consists of a central As₁₂‐cage with four exo‐bonded, formally negatively charged Se atoms. The structure of the As₁₂‐cage is equivalent to the main polyphosphorus building unit of a known organopolyphosphane and of tubular P₁₂ in the compound (CuI)₃P₁₂.     

Mesoscopic structure and properties of liquid crystalline mesophase pitch and its transformation into carbon fiber

The history and present state of the art in the chemistry of mesophase pitch, which is an important precursor for carbon fiber and other high-performance industrial carbons, are reviewed relative to their structural properties. The structural concepts in both microscopic and macroscopic views are summarized in terms of the sp(2) carbon hexagonal plane as a basic unit common to graphitic materials, its planar stacking in clusters, and cluster assembly into microdomains and domains, the latter of which reflect the isochromatic unit of optical anisotropy. Such a series of structural units is described in a semiquantitative manner corresponding to the same units of graphitic materials, although the size and stacking height of the hexagonal planes (graphitic sheets) are very different. Mesophase pitch is a liquid crystal material whose basic structural concepts are maintained in the temperature range of 250 to 350 degrees C. The melt flow and thermal properties are related to its micro- and mesoscopic structure. The structure of mesophase-pitch-based carbon fiber of high tensile strength, modulus, and thermal conductivity has been formed through spinning, and has inherited the same structural concepts of mesophase pitch. Stabilization settles the structure in successive heat treatments up to 3000 degrees C. Carbonization and graphitization enable growth of the hexagonal planes and their stacking into units of graphite. Such growth is governed and controlled by the alignment of micro- and mesoscopic structures in the mesophase pitch, which define the derived carbon materials as nanostructural materials. Their properties are controlled by the nanoscopic units that are expected to behave as nanomaterials when appropriately isolated or handled.     

羧酸在笼形聚偕氨肟树脂上吸咐

碱处理笼形聚偕氨肟树脂（BCAO）对羧酸表现出强的吸附能力。一元羧酸在BCAO树脂上以多层吸附为主要特征。二元和三元羧酸则以单层吸附占优势。后者可能是以双阴离子的一个负极吸着在BCAO树脂表面，形成了对其他羧酸阴离子起排斥作用的负离子场。另外，双阴离子也有可能和两个氨基结合形成次级交联，妨碍着其他离子迁移和扩散。     

功能化程序对笼形聚偕氨肟树脂吸附和吸留性质的影响

聚丙烯颗粒在水溶液中与丙烯腈和二乙烯基苯反应,得接枝交联产物（Ⅰ）。Ⅰ被氨肟化再经成笼反应．得笼形聚偕氨肟树脂（Ⅱ）。笼内仅吸留易于除去的溶剂丙酮。若Ⅰ成笼后再氨肟化,所得吸收剂（Ⅲ）将吸留大量的羟胺,它缓慢地释放出来,干扰吸收剂对酸、碱离子或分子吸附容量的测定。Ⅱ对一些离子例如Hg2+和MnO4-的吸附能力与Ⅲ不同,被认为是两者的网络结构不同所致。     

New method for the synthesis of cage and polymeric metallosiloxanes

Cage organometallosiloxanes were synthesized according to a new procedure using monomeric organoalkoxysilanes as the starting compounds. The latter were subjected to hydrolysis immediately before the exchange reaction of sodium silanolate with metal halides. Difficultly accessible metallovinylsiloxanes, metallomethylsiloxanes, and metallosiloxanes containing a functional group in the organic radical at the silicon atom can be readily prepared according to the method proposed.

笼形聚偕胺肟树脂的研究─—H_2PtCl_6在酸处理树脂上的吸附过程

H2PtCl6可被一系列的酸处理定形聚偕胺肟树脂所吸附，吸附容量的大小与处理树脂的质子酸的Pka值有关．认为是解高度低的酸所处理的树脂上的伯胺基成盐的机会较少，即树脂的吸附中心保留着较多的空穴，有利于H2PtCl6的接近而被吸附下来．吸附动力学的研究表明化学反应是吸附速度的控制因素。     

笼形聚偕氨肟树脂的研究──Ag(Ⅰ)在树脂上的吸附过程

测定了Ag+离子在笼形聚偕胺肟树脂（CAO）及其酸、碱处理产物（ACAO、BCAO）上的吸附容量．Ag+离子在BCAO树脂上吸附容量较高,但同非选择性吸附,在ACAO上的吸附容量则与处理树脂的酸的pKa值有关．用高pKa值的硼酸、苯酸和对氨基酚处理所得的ACAO树脂的吸附容量接近BCAO树脂的水平,认为是胶后胺肟基发生互变异构所致．吸附动力学表明Ag+离子在H3BO3/ACAO和C6H5OH/ACAO树脂上进行多层吸附．在吸附中伴随有氧化还原反应并生成Ag（O）微晶的过程．     

Stabilization of a K+-(bis-Cage-Annulated 20-Crown-6) Complex by Bidentate Picrate

Bis-cage-annulated 18-crown-6 and 20-crown-6 macrocyclic ethers (i.e., 1 and 2, respectively) have been synthesized, and their alkali metal picrate extraction profiles have been determined. Host system 1 proved to be a significantly more avid alkali metal cation complexant than 2 and somewhat more avid than 18-crown-6. Both 1 and 18-crown-6 display modest selectivity toward K⁺ and Rb⁺. A stable host–guest complex was prepared by slow evaporation of a CH₂Cl₂–hexane solution of an equimolar mixture of 2 and potassium picrate. The X-ray crystal structure of this complex reveals that picrate anion functions as a bidentate ligand therein. The gas-phase interaction energy between the 2 K⁺ complex and picrate anion was calculated to be ca. –64.9 kcal mol^–1, thereby indicating that participation of picrate anion as an additional bidentate ligand results in significant stabilization of complex 10.
