Response to high acidity and basicity at a platinum electrode in chronopotentiometry

A simple and rapid method is developed to determine the high acidity and the basicity of solutions by chronopotentiometry with a platinum working electrode. The acidity range from 5.0 mol/l H⁺ to 1.0 mol/l OH⁻ can be measured by the adjustment of deposition potential and time. The response mechanism to acidity and basicity has been explored. The transition potential plateau in chronopotentiograms is caused from the oxidation of hydrogen adsorbed on electrode surface.     

Ethylene polymerization by novel Ziegler–Natta‐type catalysts obtained in situ by the oxidative addition of 8‐hydroxyquinoline‐based ligands to bis(1,5‐cyclooctadiene)nickel(0) and methylaluminoxane

Novel catalytic systems, prepared in situ by the oxidative addition of 8‐hydroxyquinoline ligands to bis(1,5‐cyclooctadiene)nickel(0) and activated by methylaluminoxane, were studied in ethylene polymerization. When 8‐hydroxyquinoline was employed, only oligomeric products were obtained. On the contrary, 5,7‐dinitro‐8‐hydroxyquinoline gave linear polyethylene (PE), but with a modest activity. For the catalyst based on 5‐nitro‐8‐hydroxyquinoline, the productivity was largely dependent on the content of free trimethylaluminum (TMA) present in the commercial aluminoxane. The progressive optimization of the TMA/oligomeric methylaluminoxane ratio increased the productivity, which reached 700 kg of PE/(mol of Ni × h), by an order of magnitude. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Template atom transfer radical polymerization of a diaminopyrimidine‐derivatized monomer in the presence of a uracil‐containing polymer

Uracil‐derivatized monomer 6‐undecyl‐1‐(4‐vinylbenzyl)uracil and diaminopyrimidine‐derivatized monomer 2,6‐dioctanoylamido‐4‐methacryloyloxypyrimidine (DMP) were synthesized and polymerized by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). A well‐defined, highly soluble, uracil‐containing polymer, poly[6‐undecyl‐1‐(4‐vinylbenzyl)uracil] (PUVU), was prepared in dioxane at 90 °C with CuBr/1,1,4,7,10,10‐hexamethyltriethylenetetramine as the catalyst and methyl α‐bromophenylacetate as the initiator. PUVU was further used as a template for the ATRP of DMP. The enhanced apparent rate constant of the DMP polymerization in the presence of PUVU indicated that the ATRP of DMP occurred along the PUVU template. The template polymerization produced a stable and insoluble macromolecular complex, PUVU/poly(2,6‐dioctanoylamido‐4‐methacryloyloxypyrimidine). An X‐ray diffraction study confirmed that the complex had strandlike domains. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 44: 6607–6615, 2006     

Electron transfer reactions of nickel(III) and nickel(IV) complexes

This review narrates the electron transfer reactions of various nickel(III) and nickel(IV) complexes reported during the period 1981 until today. The reactions have been categorized mainly with respect to the type of nickel complexes. The reactivity of nickel(III) complexes of macrocycles, 2,2′-bipyridyl and 1,10-phenanthroline, peptides and oxime–imine, and of nickel(IV) complexes derived from oxime–imine, oxime and miscellaneous ligands with various organic and inorganic electron donors have been included. Kinetic and mechanistic features associated with such interactions have been duly analyzed. The relevance of Marcus cross-relation equations in the delineation of the electron transfer paths has also been critically discussed.

Exact thermodynamic behavior of a generalized spin-isospin ising system on the Bethe lattice

We study a generalized Ising system consisting of a Bethe lattice on every site of which two spin-1/2 and two isospin-1/2 (or atomic species A) states can be realized, the spin-species interacting with appropriate nearest neighbor couplings. The system is equivalent to that of four states per site and we obtain its exact thermodynamic behavior. The case of a fixed concentration of species is the annealed or liquid magnetic binary alloy. The temperature dependence of the short-range-order (SRO) parameter of such systems is obtained as an application of the theory and discussed in connection with relevant material from the literature. When fixing both the concentration and the nearest neighbor spatial correlation of the species, we obtain Eggarter's formulas for the frozen-in species problem, which therefore are only approximately valid even on the Bethe lattice.

稀土添加剂对烃类水蒸汽重整镍催化剂性能的影响——水蒸汽吸附的TPD研究

用程序升温脱附技术,研究了添加稀土的烃类水蒸汽重整催化剂(Ni/α-Al_2O_3)对水蒸汽的吸附性能,同未加稀土的镍催化剂作了对比。结果表明,加有稀土的镍催化剂对水蒸汽的吸附能力主要是稀土的贡献。还原态催化剂对水蒸汽的吸附量比相应的氧化态多1.4倍。发现催化剂对水蒸汽的吸附能力不仅取决于浸渍方式,而且同稀土含量有关。当稀土含量较多时,催化剂表面上呈现出三个能量不同的吸附位。稀土含量少于1.3%时。对提高催化剂吸附水蒸汽的能力已作用不大。含稀土的镍催化剂吸附水蒸汽的能力大,正是其抗结炭性能耐硫性能好的原因。
