氢部分选择性催化还原NO反应研究

在低钯含量活性非均布Pd/Al2O3催化剂上，实现了富氧条件下，氢部分选择性催化还原NO过程，低温、富氧条件下NO的转化率高达80％－100％。NO直接分解实验表明，600℃，NO分解转化率在无氧时为17．3％，有0．5％氧存在时接近于0。氢非选择性还原NO条件下，100℃以下，NO转化率为100％。根据实验结果及文献，推测了氢部分选择性还原NO过程中可能存在的反应，不同的反应温度下，NO脱除反应有所不同。在115℃以下，NO还原产物为NH3；115℃－155℃，NO还原产物为NH3、N2O和N2；155℃以上，NO还原产物中无NH3存在。NO还原反应与氢氧反应是平行的竞争反应。

Consequences of sample size, variable selection, and model validation and optimisation, for predicting classification ability from analytical data

This article discusses problems of validating classification models especially in datasets where sample sizes are small and the number of variables is large. It describes the use of percentage correctly classified (%CC) as an indicator for success of a classification model. For small datasets, %CC should not be used uncritically and its interpretation depends on sample size. It illustrates the use of a common classification method, discriminant partial least squares (D-PLS) on a randomly generated dataset of 200 samples and 200 variables.

An aim of the classifier is to determine whether the null hypothesis (there is no distinction between two classes) can be rejected. Autoprediction gives an 84.5% CC. It is shown that, if there is variable selection, it must be performed independently on the training set to obtain a CC close to 50% on the test set; otherwise, over-optimistic and false conclusions can be reached about the ability to classify samples into groups.

Finally, two aims of determining the quality of a model are frequently confused, namely optimisation (often used to determine the most appropriate number of components in a model) and independent validation; to overcome this, the data should be split into three groups.

There are often difficulties with model building if validation and optimisation have been done on different groups of samples, especially using iterative methods, each group being modelled using properties, such as a different number of components or different variables.     

Volumetric properties of H2O, D2O, and methanol in acetonitrile at 278.15—318.15 K

The densities of H₂O, D₂O, and MeOH solutions in acetonitrile with the solute concentrations up to 0.07 molar fractions at 278.15, 288.15, 298.15, 308.15, and 318.15 K were measured using vibrating-tube densimetry with an error 8·10^–6 g cm^–3. The limiting partial molar volumes for the H/D isotopomers of water and IaII in acetonitrile (V^– ₂ ) and the isotope effects in V^– ₂ and in excess molar volumes of acetonitrile—water mixtures were calculated. Molecules of H₂O, D₂O, and IaII form associates with acetonitrile molecules via hydrogen bonds. The associates have the packing volumes close to those in the individual solute. The water and methanol molecules were assumed to be incorporated into the acetonitrile structure without substantial changes in the latter. However, this process results in some compression of the system with a simultaneous increase in its expansibility.     

Heat capacity of alcohols in aqueous solutions in the temperature range from 5 to 125°C

Using a precise technique of scanning microcalorimetry the heat capacity differences between water and dilute aqueous solutions of ethanol, n-propanol, n-butanol and n-pentanol were measured from 5 to 125°C and the partial molar heat capacities of these substances in water were determined. It was found that the heat capacity increment for alcohol disolved in water is proportional to the number of the-CH ₂ ^– groups and decrease with a temperature increase. The heat capacity increment of hydration of non-polar groups is shown to be positive and large at room temperature and decreases in magnitude as the temperature increases. In contrast, the heat capacity increment of hydration of polar groups is negative at room tempreature and increases as the temperature increases. From the temperature dependence of the heat capacity increment one can assume that the water molecules solvated by the non-polar groups of the alcohols behave in a non-cooperative manner.

An application of second-order n-electron valence state perturbation theory to the calculation of excited states

n–electron valence state perturbation theory (NEVPT) is a form of multireference perturbation theory where all the zero-order wave functions are of multireference nature, being generated as eigenfunctions of a two–electron model Hamiltonian. The absence of intruder states makes NEVPT an interesting choice for the calculation of electronically excited states. Test calculations have been performed on several valence and Rydberg transitions for the formaldehyde and acetone molecules; the results are in good accordance with the best calculations and with the existing experimental data.Contribution to the Jacopo Tomasi Honorary Issue     

Some chemical transformations of the neo-clerodane diterpene teubotrin

Starting from the natural neo-clerodane diterpenoid teubotrin (1) several neo-clerodane derivatives (3-7,9-11) have been obtained. The naturally occurring diterpenoid teuscordinon (12) has also been synthesized from teubotrin (1), showing thereby how some of these transformations can be useful for the synthesis of other natural neo-clerodane diterpenes. The latter are of interest due to their activity as insect antifeedants and other important biological properties.     

Liquid structure of vanadium tetrachloride from neutron diffraction study

Assuming the separation of the intermolecular scattering function into the radial and angular parts and using Egelstaffet al’s orientational model for tetrachlorides, the structure of liquid vanadium tetrachloride has been studied. It has been observed that such a separation is approximate for this liquid and the introduction of a third correction term is required to account for the molecular structure function. The chlorine-chlorine partial structure and effective angleaveraged intermolecular chlorine-chlorine potential in the liquid has been evaluated. Without taking the third correction term, introduced to generate theoretically the molecular structure function, the centre structure function has been obtained in an approximate way from the experimentally observed molecular structure function and from it the centre radial distribution function, centre direct correlation function and the angle-averaged vanadium-vanadium effective potential has been evaluated.
