Formation at low surfactant concentrations and characterization of mesoporous MCM-41

At low concentrations of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide,all silica-based mesoporous materials with hexagonal phase have been synthesized via interactions between self-assembled surfactant molecule aggregates and aniomc silicate polymers.The resulting materials are characterized by XRD,FT-IR,solid state 29Si MAS NMR,thermal analysis and N2 adsorption-desorption measurements.After soluble ions are removed,the interactors between surfactant micelles and silicate polymers are reorganized and then form mesostructures 1 he hexagonal framework is sonsistent with amorphous silica gel.The structures of materials depend on the synthesis conditions Hydrothermal process improves the interactions between molecules and increases the degree of framework silicon atom polymerization The.surface area and the mesopore volume of the material prepared at 100℃ increase by 87% and 71 %,respectively,compared with those obtained at room temperature.     

Tricarbonyl(dialkylamidocyclohexa-1,3-diene)iron: Preparation,Isomerization and Stereochemistry

The direct reaction of iron pentacarbonyl with diethylamidocyclohexadiene gave three isomeric tricarbonyliron complexes, 1, 2 and 3. Only 1 isomerized to give 2 under acidic conditions, whereas 3 remained unchanged. The chemical properties of the tricarbonyl(amidocyclohexadiene)iron complexes differed from those of the tricarbonyl(carboxycyclohexadiene)iron complexes. Complex 3 which underwent no hydride abstraction with triphenylmethyl hexafluorophosphate, has an exo stereochemistry.     

Reaction of a naphthalene complex C10H8Yb(THF)2 with cyclopentadienyl-substituted alcohols and amines as a convenient synthetic route to the half-sandwich complexes of divalent ytterbium

The reactions of ytterbium naphthalene complex C₁₀H₈Yb(THF)₂ with 2-cyclopentadienylethanol, 1-cyclopentadienylpropan-2-ol, 3-cyclopentadienyl-1-butoxypropan-2-ol, and cyclopentadienyldimethylsilyl-tert-butylamine were studied. The bivalent ytterbium complexes with chelate bifunctional cyclopentadienyl ligands [(η⁵−C₅H₅)CH₂CH₂(η¹−O)]Yb(THF), [(η⁵−C₅H₅)CH₂CH₂(η¹−O)]Yb(DME). [(η⁵−C₅H₅)CH₂CH(Me)(η¹−O)]Yb(THF), [(η⁵−C₅H₅)CH₂CH(CH₂OC₄H₉)(η¹−O)]Yb(THF), and [(η⁵−C₅H₅)SiMe₂(η¹−N(Bu¹))]Yb(THF) were obtained and characterized. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Paradigms and Paradoxes: Electronegativity and Bond Energies—Living Legacies of Linus and Lee

In this paper we will discuss Pauling's classic Eq. (1) that relates bond energies, "D," and electronegativities, "x." Recast to be applicable to enthalpies of formation and reaction, we apply it to the study of hydrogenolysis reactions of dienes, diynes, and alkanes, halogenolysis reactions (with chlorine, bromine, and iodine) and metathetical reactions of organosulfur species (sulfides, sulfoxides, and sulfones). It is with great regret that this equation is found wanting.     

Clathrate formation in water-cyclic ether systems at high pressures

Experimental data on the investigation of the water-trimethyleneoxide system,P, t, x phase diagram (up to 6 kbar) are presented. The results are compared with those on water systems with ethyleneoxide, 1,3- and 1,4-dioxane, 1,3-dioxolane and tetrahydrofuran, on the basis of which a summarizedP, t, x diagram is plotted for water-cyclic ether systems. It is shown that in all the systems in which a cubic structure II hydrate forms at 1 bar, it eventually turns to cubic structure I under pressure. The nature of high pressure hydrates is discussed.Dedicated to the memory of D. W. Davidson.     

Crystal and molecular structure ofN,N′,N″-tritosyl-5,8,14,17,23,26-hexamethyl-2,11,20-triaza[3.3.3]-paracyclophane 1 : 1 dichloromethane clathrate

The crystal and molecular structure of the title compound, C₅₁H₅₇N₃O₆S₃·CH₂Cl₂ has been determined by single crystal X-ray analysis and refined to anR-value of 0.069 for 1032 reflections. The crystal is trigonal, space groupR3, witha = 21.255(7),c = 11.317(4), andZ = 3. One molecule of dichloromethane used as solvent is enclathrated in the crystal lattice.     

Complexing tendencies of UO 22+ and Th4+ in their mixed ligand complexes with aminopolycarboxylates and resorcinol or its derivatives

Formation contants (log K _MAL ^MA ) of mixed ligand complexes MAL, where M = UO ₂ ²⁺ or Th⁴⁺, A = IMDA, NTA, HEDTA, EDTA, CDTA or DTPA, and L = resorcinol (res), 2-methyl resorcinol (2-Me-res), 5-methyl resorcinol (5-Me-res) or 4-chloro resorcinol (4-Cl-res), have been determined pH-metrically by the Irving-Rossotti approach at 25°C and at an ionic strength,I = 0.2(moldm⁻³KNO₃). The observed stability sequences are IMDA > NTA > HEDTA > EDTA > CDTA > DTPA, and 4-Cl-res > 5-Me-res > 2-Me-res > res with respect to primary and secondary ligands, respectively. Th⁴⁺ forms more stable mixed complexes than UO ₂ ²⁺ . The A ΔlogK values are negative due mainly to the charge repulsion involved in the complexation MA + L⇋MAL.     

A quantum-chemical study of regioselectivity of indolization of some unsymmetrical ketone phenylhydrazones

The heat of formation (H _f) of unsymmetrical ketone phenylhydrazones and their enehydrazine tautomers was calculated by the semi-empirical quantum-chemical AM1 method. It is concluded that from H _f values it is possible to judge the regioselectivity of indolization of unsymmetrical ketone phenylhydrazones.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 220–221, January, 1993.     

Ion-Pair Formation in Pharmaceutical Analysis. Conductimetric Determination of Promazine, Chlorpromazine, Promethazine, Imipramine and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochlorides in Pure Form, Drug Formulations and Urine

 Potassium ferricyanide and sodium tetraphenylborate were used as titrants for the conductimetric determination of promazine HCl, chlorpromazine HCl, promethazine HCl, imipramine HCl and ciprofloxacin HCl through ion-associate complex formation. The molar combining ratio, effects of dilution of titrant, temperature and solvent were studied. The accuracy of the method is indicated by excellent recovery (99.50–99.96%). The sensitivity of the proposed method is discussed and the results are compared with the pharmacopoeial or the official methods. The suggested method has been applied for the analysis of the mentioned compounds in their pharmaceutical formulations and urine. Received March 1, 1998. Revision May 31, 1999.
