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.     

ViscosityB-coefficients,structural entropies and heat capacities,and the effects of ions on the structure of water

The water-structural contributions to the entropies and heat capacities of hydration of over 120 ions and the viscosity B-coefficients of nearly 80 aqueous ions are tabulated and correlated. B-coefficients for many more ions are predicted from this relationship and from their dependence on ionic size and charge. The structural entropies determine a unique scale of water structure making and breaking by the ions.

Non isothermal heat capacities and chemical reactions using a modulated DSC

An evaluation of measurements of heat capacities by modulated differential scanning calorimetry, MDSC is presented. Heat capacities were obtained from 130 to 550 K by a non isothermal technique in which a periodic modulation was added to the linear heating rate. Effects of amplitude and period of modulation, sample weight, sample type, pan type, and cell imbalance are described. Results are compared with those obtained using the isothermal technique. Heat capacity could be measured well into the decomposition region and separated from the non reversing signal due to chemical reaction (degradation), thus allowing a precise detection of onsets of the thermal degradation. This additional information will aid in the interpretation of the degradation chemistry, a field vital for the petroleum-industry.Dedicated to Professor Bernhard Wunderlich on the occasion of his 65th birthdayPart of this paper was presented at the 23rd Conference of the North American Thermal Analysis Society, Toronto, Canada, September 25–28, 1994.The author (MVN) acknowledges the experimental assistance provided by J.

Influence of drawing and heat treatment on surface free energies of polyethylene terephthalate fibers

The surface free energies of polyethylene terepthalate fibers with different draw ratios were experimentally determined by contact angle measurements inn-alkane/water systems. The dispersive component of the surface free energy increased with increasing draw ratio, whereas the nondispersive one remained almost constant. After heat treatment, the dispersive surface free energy increased, but was reduced above 140°C. The nondispersive component increased by heat treatment at 190°C. The increases in the density and birefringence of the fibres due to the drawing and heat treatment suggested that the increase in the dispersive surface free energy was caused by the increase in the atomic density at the fiber surface due to drawing and heat treatment. ESCA results indicated that the increment in the nondispersive surface free energy due to heat treatment was caused by the addition of functional groups to the fiber surface due to heat treatment.     

稀土高氯酸盐-谷氨酸配合物[Pr2(L-α-Glu)2(ClO4)(H2O)7](ClO4)3•4H2O的低温热容和热化学研究

合成了一种稀土高氯酸盐-谷氨酸配合物. 经TG/DTG、化学和元素分析、FTIR及与相关文献对比, 确定其组成为[Pr₂(L-α-Glu)₂(ClO₄)(H₂O)₇](ClO₄)₃•4H₂O, 纯度为99.0%以上. 利用显微熔点仪分析发现其没有熔点. 在78～370 K温区, 用精密绝热量热仪测量其低温热容, 在285～306 K温区发现一明显吸热峰, 归结为固-固相变过程. 通过相变温区三次重复热容测量, 得到相变温度T_tr、相变焓Δ_trH_m和相变熵Δ_trS_m分别为(297.158±0.280) K, (12.338±0.016) kJ•mol^－1和(41.520±0.156) J•K^－1•mol^－1. 用最小二乘法将非相变温区的热容对温度进行拟合, 得到了热容随温度变化的两个多项式方程. 用此方程进行数值积分, 得到每隔5 K的舒平热容值和相对于273.15 K的热力学函数值. 根据TG/DTG结果, 推测了该配合物的热分解机理. 依据Hess定律, 选择1 mol•dm^－3盐酸为量热溶剂, 利用等温环境溶解-反应量热计, 测定了该配合物的标准摩尔生成焓为: Δ_fH_m⁰＝－(7223.1±2.4) kJ•mol^－1.     

微量热法研究γ-Mo2N催化剂表面氢的微分吸附热

Differential heats of H 2 adsorption on γ-Mo2N catalysts were studied by using microcalorimetry. Samples with high and medium surface areas (90 and 17 m2•g -1 ) present a homogeneous energetic distribution of surface sites, which corresponds with the preferential orientation of their (200) planes. Molybdenum nitride with low surface area (8 m2•g -1 ) displays a heterogeneous energetic distribution of H 2 adsorption sites. The higher initial differential heat of hydrogen adsorption observed for the low surface Mo nitride was attributed to species adsorbed on surface sites associated with the (111) plane.     

Calorimetric studies of refractory corundum

Calorimetry has been used in the investigations of calcium aluminate materials produced as a binder for aluminate-corundum composites of high refractoriness. The kinetics and of hydration process was thus characterized and the optimum compositions of initial binders and cement-corundum refractory filler blends could be selected for further tests. The acceleration of heat evolution - the shortening of so-called induction period and relatively high heat output in the presence of corundum was observed. It means the acceleration of hydration process, that is early crystallisation of hydration products and subsequent further dissolution of initial anhydrous aluminate phases. In the presence of fine grained corundum particles these phenomena should be attributed to the nucleating effect of fine corundum particles. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Modification of silica gel with diethylamino group by novel reaction and its characterization

1,3,5,7-Tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane (H₄) was deposited on silica gel at 80°C by utilizing a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, where it was catalytically polymerized to form a surface coating of polymethylsiloxane (PMS). Treated silica gel (PMS-Si) increased in weight up to a plateau level, and there was no further increase with increasing reaction time. The film of PMS was partially cross linked; typical values of crosslinking ratio and film thickness were 2% and 0.6 nm, respectively. An anionic ion exchanger containing diethylamino groups was synthesized from PMS-Si by hydrosilylation of allyl glycidyl ether followed by treatment with diethylamine. Its structure was confirmed by¹³C and²⁹Si CP/MAS NMR spectroscopy and FT-IR spectrophotometry. Characterization of silica gel (DEA-Si) modified with diethylamino group was evaluated by a packing of the column for liquid chromatography. As a mixture of five nucleotides was completely separated, it was recognized that DEA-Si was operated by ion exchange action. Because the surface of the silica gel was covered with hydrophobic PMS, the peak heights and retention times did not change after washing of the column with alkaline solution.     

The effect of composition of parenteral solution on the thermal resistance of Bacillus stearothermophilus and Bacillus subtilis spores

Large-volume parenteral solutions were submitted to heat treatments after being inoculated with Bacillus stearothermophilus ATCC 7953 (T _r =121°C) and Bacillus subtilis ATCC 9372 (T _r =104.5°C) spores. The average decimal reduction time for B. stearothermophilus ranged from a D _121°C value of 1.31 to 3.14 min, in glucophysiologic and Ringer’s solutions respectively. For B. subtilis, D _104.5°C value increased from 0.69 to 1.37 min, in Ringer’s (pH=5.91) and 50% glucose (pH 3.05) solutions respectively. The z value ranged from 7.95°C (20% mannitol solution) to 13.14°C (50% glucose solution), corresponding to an activation energy (Ea) of 81.48 and 49.30 kcal/mol, respectively.
