Determination of kinetic parameters of polymerizations by differential scanning calorimetry

Differential scanning calorimetry is well suited to record heat productions of chemical and physical processes as data for the following kinetic analysis. To obtain kinetic parameters of complex reactions, nonlinear optimization methods have to be used. Such complex reaction systems are polymerizations. We tried to evaluate measurements of the epoxy cure and the polymerization of β-propiolactame with simple and complex models. In both cases the simple models did not produce satisfactory results. But by using complex models a successful fitting of the measured data was possible. Our investigation shows that the combination of DSC and modern nonlinear evaluation methods presents a suitable tool for the kinetic investigation of polymerizations.     

Complex copper(II) fluorides. XV. The Ternary System BaF2?CuF2?ScF3

The liquid-solid phase diagram of the binary system BaF₂? ScF₃ is established by D.T.A. and radiocrystallography. Three fluorides are disclosed: Ba₃Sc₂F₁₂, Ba₅Sc₃F₁₉ and a cubic high temperature phase Ba_1?xSc_xF_2+x (x = 0.17), the structure of which derives from that of BaF₂. A solid solution between BaF₂ and ScF₃ is also evidenced at high temperature. The ternary system BaF₂? CuF₂? ScF₃ is investigated by radiocrystallography and an isothermal section at 670°C is given. It shows the existence of four phases: a complex quaternary fluoride Ba₁₀Cu₁₂ScF₄₇, two “polytypic” phases the structure of which derives from that of BaCuF₄ and a tetragonal solid solution Ba₅Sc_3?xCu_xF_19?x with 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.     

Titanium and zirconium complexes with novel phenoxy-phosphinimine ligands

A series of novel phenoxy-phosphinimine ligands (L): L = 2-(Ph₂PNR), 4, 6-(CMe₃)₂-C₆H₂OH [2, R = SiMe₃; 3, R = Ph] have been prepared in the yield of 65-71%. And bis(phenoxy-phosphinimide) group 4 complexes of the type L₂MCl₂ [4, M = Ti, R = SiMe₃; 5, M = Zr, R = SiMe₃; 6, M = Ti, R = Ph; 7, M = Zr, R = Ph] have been synthesized by the reaction of the ligands with TiCl₄ and ZrCl₄. The structure of complex 7 has been determined by X-ray crystallography. The complexes 4-7 showed inactive to ethylene polymerization in the presence of modified methylaluminoxane (MMAO) and i-Bu₃Al/Ph₃CB(C₆ F₅)₄. These results should be caused by overdoing the steric congestion around central metal.

Synthese und Kristallstruktur von [ReNCl(NPPh2C6H4)]2 · [Ph3PNH2]Cl · CH3CN,einem rheniumorganischen Nitrido-Phosphaniminato-Komplex

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [ReNCl(NPPh₂C₆H₄)]₂ · [Ph₃PNH₂]Cl · CH₃CN, a Rhenium Organic Nitrido Phosphoraneiminato Complex The title compound is synthesized by the reaction of ReNCl₄ with Me₃SiNPPh₃ in boiling acetonitrile, forming colourless crystals, which are characterized by an X-ray structure determination. Space group P1 , Z = 2, 4 037 observed unique reflections, R = 0.043. Lattice dimensions at 19°C: a = 1 005.5; b = 1 695.2; c = 1 744.7 pm, α = 105.86°; β = 101.49°; γ = 104.45°. The structure consists of dimeric molecules [ReNCl(NPPh₂C₆H₄)]₂, triphenylphosphorane ammoniumchloride and included acetonitrile molecules. In the nitrido phosphoraneiminato complex the rhenium atoms are μ₂-bridged via the N-Atoms of the phosphoraneiminato ligands. Because of this bridging and a Re? Re bond, one terminal nitrido ligand, one terminal chloro ligand, and a Re? C bond of an -C-atom of one phenylene group of Re-atoms attain co-ordination number six.     

Casorati Inequalities for Statistical Submanifolds in Kenmotsu Statistical Manifolds of Constant ϕ-Sectional Curvature with Semi-Symmetric Metric Connection

In this paper, we prove some inequalities between intrinsic and extrinsic curvature invariants, namely the normalized δ-Casorati curvatures and the scalar curvature of statistical submanifolds in Kenmotsu statistical manifolds of constant ϕ-sectional curvature that are endowed with semi-symmetric metric connection. Furthermore, we investigate the equality cases of these inequalities. We also describe an illustrative example.     

Theoretical Study on the Conformational Conversion of 1,3-Dioxane Inside a Capsular Host

The mechanism for the conformational conversion of 1,3-dioxane guest encapsulated inside a capsular host was theoretically investigated using semiempirical PM3 method and DFT methods. The free-state process of the conformational conversion of 1,3-dioxane was also investigated to make a comparison between the two different states using the same theory. The influences of the inner phase of the capsule on the conformational conversion of guest molecule were discussed via analyzing the comparative results. It was found that the capsular host could accommodate 1,3-dioxane within its cavity by the weak attractive interactions between host and guest, and it responds to the conformational conversion of guest by the deformation of hydrogen-bonding seam at the middle of the capsule. When entrapped in the capsule, the guest molecule undergoes the conformational conversion from chair form to twist-boat form slower than that under the free condition. The deformation of the capsule is favorable to maximize the attractive interactions between host and guest.
