Borderline of hydrogen bonding of silanols

Two new silanols bearing very bulky silyl groups, (i-Pr₃ Si)₃SiOH and (t − BuMe₂Si)₃SiOH were prepared by peracidoxidation of their respective silanes. The X − ray crystallographic analysis revealed that (t − BuMe₂Si)₃ SiOH forms a dimeric structure with hydrogen bonding, while (i − Pr₃ Si)₃ SiOH exists as a monomer in the crystal. The effects of the size of the substituents as well as the reactivity of these silanols are discussed.     

Two-Temperature Transport Coefficients in Argon–Hydrogen Plasmas—I: Elastic Processes and Collision Integrals

The calculation of two-temperature transport coefficients in an argon–hydrogen plasma at atmospheric pressure is performed using a new theory of two-temperature transport properties recently presented. The latter takes into account the coupling between electrons and heavy species, coupling neglected in the already existing theories of Devoto and Bonnefoi. Transport coefficients are calculated at two-temperatures, the kinetic temperature of electrons T_e being different from that of heavy species T_h. This paper is divided into two parts. The first one is related to elastic processes and its aim is to compare the results obtained with this new theory for viscosity , translational thermal conductivities ^tr _e and ^tr _h and electrical conductivity with the previous results of Bonnefoi. The composition is calculated with the modified equilibrium constant of van de Sanden et al. and the most recent interaction potential are discussed. As it could be expected the electron translational thermal conductivity and the electrical conductivity calculated when taking into account or not the coupling between electrons and heavy species show non-negligible discrepancies. Besides this comparison, the results also show the drastic influence of the non-equilibrium parameter =T_e/T_h on the values of , , ^tr _e, and ^tr _h.     

配合物形成的三维超分子体系—[Ni(C_6H_4O_2N)_2(H_2O)_4]的水热法合成、晶体结构及热分析

采用水热法用Ni(NO3)26H2O和异烟酸制备出了一种新的由配合物形成的三维超分子体系—[Ni(C6H4O2N)2(H2O)4],并通过X射线衍射对其晶体结构进行了测定。 该晶体属三斜晶系,空间群为Pī, 所得晶胞参数为: a = 6.9228(4), b = 9.6664(19),c = 6.322(1) , a = 96.86(3), b = 113.33(3), g = 110.35(3)°, V = 347.6(1) 3, Z = 1, Mr = 374.98, Dc = 1.791 g/cm3, F(000) = 194, m = 1.443 mm-1。用1362个可观察的 (I > 2s(I))衍射点,修正123个结构参数, 最终偏离因子R = 0.0444,wR = 0.1271。在组成该化合物的基本结构单元[Ni(C6H4O2N)2(H2O)4]中,Ni处于1个稍微拉长的八面体的中心; 各个结构单元之间通过氢键OH…O相互连接,形成了无限伸展的具有层状结构的三维超分子体系。 另外,从差热及热重曲线可以看出,该化合物加热到154 ℃时开始分解, 首先失去4个H2O,再失去2个异烟酸根,最后残余物为NiO。     

CuZnAl水滑石衍生催化剂上甲醇水蒸气重整制氢Ⅲ.合成水滑石用金属盐的影响

采用共沉淀法,用不同金属盐为Cu源和Zn源合成了一系列CuZnAl水滑石,以此为前体经600℃焙烧后制得相应催化剂.用硝酸盐和醋酸盐合成的水滑石结晶度高,其衍生催化剂比表面积大、Cu的分散性好且易于还原;而用硫酸盐和盐酸盐合成的水滑石结晶度差,其衍生催化剂比表面积小、Cu的分散性差且不易还原.反应评价结果显示,用硝酸盐和醋酸盐制得的催化剂活性高、反应稳定性好;而用硫酸盐和盐酸盐制得的催化剂由于低的Cu表面积以及S和Cl的毒化作用而几乎无催化活性.在醋酸盐制备的催化剂上,产物干气中CO的浓度明显较低,在250℃和WHSV=3.28 h-1的条件下约为0.03%~0.04%,仅为硝酸盐所制催化剂上CO浓度的1/5;在210℃和WHSV=0.5 h-1的条件下,该催化剂上甲醇几乎完全转化,同时CO浓度降至约0.005%.N2O滴定、CO2程序升温脱附和程序升温还原结果显示,用醋酸盐和硝酸盐制备的催化剂具有极相近的Cu表面积和表面碱性,但前者CuO的还原峰温较后者低近70℃,归因于ZnO与CuO间的强相互作用,这是催化剂具有良好选择性的可能原因.     

Re-Evaluation of the Activity Coefficients of Aqueous Hydrochloric Acid Solutions up to a Molality of 2.0 Using Two-Parameter Hückel and Pitzer Equations. Part I. Results at 25°C

Simple two-parameter Hückel and Pitzer equations were used for the calculation of the activity coefficients of aqueous hydrochloric acid at 25°C up to a molality of 2.0 mol-kg^–1. The data obtained by Harned and Ehlers^(12,13) from galvanic cells without liquid junction were used in the analysis and the parameters obtained were compared to those obtained from all reliable data presented in the literature for HCl at this temperature. A good agreement between the parameters was always observed. The activity coefficients obtained by the new equations were compared to those suggested by Robinson and Stokes,⁽⁸⁾ Hamer and Wu,⁽¹⁾ and Pitzer and Mayorga,⁽⁹⁾ and good agreement was also found. The data from the most important literature data sets for HCl were also predicted using the new activity coefficient equations, and the magnitude of the resulting errors was close to the precision of the measurements, the errors forming an almost random pattern for all data sets.     

Existence of aromatic sp~2 C-H…O = C intramolecular interaction similar to hydrogen bond

A 'H NMR signal shifted drastically to down field (δ - 10.0) at the bay area and in dose proximity to C = O group for H-1 was observed through complete assignments of 1H NMR spectra for pyridino- and benzobenzanthrones. It is concluded that this phenomenon is due not only to the anisotropy effect of C=O plus aromatic ring current effect, but also to the electrostatic attraction of C-H (δ+)…O(δ-)=C interaction. The evidence for the sp2C-H…O = C intramolecular interaction similar to hydrogen bond has also been given by EI-MS and MS/MS (CID) spectroscopy and IR spectroscopy, as well as MNDO-PM3 calculations. This new kind of interaction might be called 'quasi-hydrogen bond'.     

Excess enthalpies for mixtures of cyclohexanone with isomeric propanols and butanols at 298.15 K

Excess enthalpies (H ^E ) for mixtures of cyclohexanone with propan-1-ol. propan-2-ol, butan-1-ol, butan-2-ol and 2-methyl propan-1-ol at 298.15 K have been measured over the entire composition range. All mixed endothermically with the maximum values ofH ^E occurring at equimole fraction. Comments about the molecular interactions contributing to the excess enthalpies of a cyclic ketone + an alcohol are made on the basis of these results.     

Simulation of aerated lagoon using artificial neural networks and multivariate regression techniques

The aim of this study was to develop an empirical model that provides accurate predictions of the biochemical oxygen demand of the output stream from the aerated lagoon at International Paper of Brazil, one of the major pulp and paper plants in Brazil. Predictive models were calculated from functional link neural networks (FLNNs), multiple linear regression, principal components regression, and partial least-squares regression (PLSR). Improvement in FLNN modeling capability was observed when the data were preprocessed using the PLSR technique. PLSR also proved to be a powerful linear regression technique for this problem, which presents operational data limitations.     

Nucleophilic reactivity of the peroxide anion in aqueous-alcoholic solutions in the presence of detergents

The reactivity of hydroxide and peroxide anions with 4-nitrophenyl N,N-dimethylcarbamate in aqueous-alcoholic detergent media and in “oil in water” microemulsions has been studied. Aqueous-alcoholic solutions of cationic (CTAB) and neutral (Triton X-100) surface active substances have promise for decomposition of substrates by a nucleophilic mechanism. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i éksperimental’naya Khimiya, Vol. 43, No. 6, pp. 358–363, November–December, 2007.
