Conductance of KCI-Glycerol Solutions: Test of the Fuoss Paired Ion Model

Abstract

The electrical conductance of KC1 in glycerol solutions has been measured at concentrations between 1.5 mol m^?3 and 353 mol m^?3 at 22°C. The results are compared with the Fuoss paired ion model and fits to the data are obtained assuming a Gurney co-sphere having a radius in the approximate range 6 ± 10^?10 m to 9 ± 10^?10 m. The model leads to an estimate of ionic association which is less than that given by the theory of Bjerrum.     

An efficient approach for total synthesis of aminopropyl functionalized ganglioside GM1b

A highly efficient protocol for the synthesis of aminopropyl functionalized ganglioside GM1b has been described. The full protected ganglioside GM1b was obtained in 71% yield within 5 h. The key feature of the synthetic approach was the use of sialic acid donor that was with a C-5 trichloroacetamide moiety and with a dibenzyl phosphite residue as leaving group at the anomeric carbon. The sialyl donor gave high yields and excellent α-anomeric selectivities with a wide variety of glycosyl acceptors ranging from C-3 or C-6 hydroxyls of galactoside to C-6 hydroxyl of glucosaminoside by using TMSOTf as catalyst in a mixture solution of acetonitrile and methylene chloride.     

Chemical Detection Of Selected Hallucinogens In Water

Abstract

A specific and non-destructive test for basic esters of benzilic and α-glycolic acids in water is described. The compounds are collected on a glass fiber filter as water insoluble complexes with sodium tetraphenylboron. The filter is dried and sprayed with a 2-diphenylacetyl-l, 3-indandione-l-imine derivative. A positive test is the visual observation of fluorescence.     

PbII 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-naphthyl-1,3-butanedione complexes of 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2′-bipyridine ligands

Lead(II) 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-naphthyl-1,3-butanedione (Htfnb) complexes of 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy), [Pb₂(bpy)₂(tfnb)₂] (1) and [Pb₂(phen)₂(tfnb)₂] (2), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. The self-assembly of 1 and 2 is likely to be caused by C–H ··· F–C, C–H ··· O and π–π stacking interactions.     

Reaction of 1-benzoylethylpyridinium-4-aldoxime chloride with aquapentacyanoferrate(II)

The results of a spectrophotometric investigation of the reaction of the biologically active salt 1-benzoylethylpyridinium-4-aldoxime chloride with aquapentacyanoferrate(II) ion are presented. In spite of the presence of two donor sites, only the carbonyl group of the ligand coordinates to the iron centre. Reaction kinetics are consistent with a dissociative mechanism.     

Palladium‐catalyzed carbonylative cyclization of β‐bromo‐α,β‐unsaturated carboxylic acids with primary amines leading to N‐alkylmaleimides

Cyclic β‐bromo‐α,β‐unsaturated carboxylic acids are carbonylatively cyclized with primary amines under carbon monoxide pressure in MeCN in the presence of a catalytic amount of PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂ to give N‐alkylmaleimides. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Infrared asymptotic freedom of a hierarchical φ 3 6 lattice theory

For the weakly coupled lattice ₃ ⁶ theory in a hierarchical model approximation a nonperturbative renormalization group analysis in the spirit of Gawedzki and Kupiainen is performed to study the flow of the effective actions. We deduce a domain of attraction to the tricritical (Gaussian) fixed point. The two relevant coupling constants of the problem are controlled by analytic continuation to complex domains, tracing their images under the renormalization group iterations.
