Amorphe Potenzen kompakter Räume

A set is amorphous, if it is not a union of two disjoint infinite subsets. The following variants of the Tychonoff product theorem are investigated in the hierarchy of weak choice principles. TA1: An amorphous power of a compactT ₂ space is compact. TA2: An amorphous power of a compactT ₂ space which as a set is wellorderable is compact. In ZF⁰TA1 is equivalent to the assertion, that amorphous sets are finite. RT is Ramsey's theorem, that every finite colouring of the set ofn-element subsets of an infinite set has an infinite homogeneous subset and PW is Rubin's axiom, that the power set of an ordinal is wellorderable. In ZF⁰RT+PW implies TA2. Since RT+PW is compatible with the existence of infinite amorphous sets, TA2 does not imply TA1 in ZF⁰. But TA2 cannot be proved in ZF⁰ alone. As an application, we prove a theorem of Stone, using a weak wellordering axiomD ₃ (a set is wellorderable, if each of its infinite subsets is structured) together with RT.

Thermal behavior of ternary Sm2Fe17Nx magnets

The Mössbauer spectra of Sm₂Fe₁₇N_x, prepared by the nitrogenation of Sm₂Fe₁₇ powders in an ammonia and hydrogen atmosphere, were observed at elevated temperatures to shed light on the thermal behavior of nitrogen in the compounds Sm₂Fe₁₇N_x. It was found that there were large differences in thermal behavior between the starting Sm₂Fe₁₇, crystalline Sm₂Fe₁₇N_x (x≈1.7) and amorphous Sm₂Fe₁₇N_x(x～7). The thermal decomposition behavior of Sm₂Fe₁₇N_3.2, developed as one of the most promising hard magnetic materials, was found to be different under different atmospheres.     

On the Existence and Hydrolytic Stability of Titanosiloxane Bonds in the System: Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane-Water-Titaniumtetraethoxide

Heterometal materials based on glycidoxypropyltrialkoxysilane and titaniumalkoxide are used for optical applications and require a high homogeneity on the molecular level. The presence of heterometal titanosiloxanes, their distribution and hydrolytic stability should influence the homogeneity of these materials. 29Si and 17O NMR spectroscopy has been used to investigate sols with molar ratios Si : Ti = 1 and H2O : OR (H) = 0.5 – 2.0 and their gels after heat treatment at 130°C. The presence of Si—O—Ti bonds in sols with a low water content (H < 0.2) and in the corresponding gels was identified by the high-field shift of the 29Si NMR signals of T1 and T2 units of up to 2–3 ppm compared to corresponding signals of homo-condensed Si—O—Si bonds. The existence of Si—O—Ti bonds in the sols is supported by 17O NMR spectra which show a characteristic signal around 340 ppm. A cleavage of the Si—O—Ti bonds occurs with increasing water/OR ratio in the sols. The cleavage of the heterometal bonds and the building up of homo-condensed species leads to a separation into areas with predominantly Ti—O—Ti and Si—O—Si bonds resulting in a decreased molecular homogeneity of the materials.

Synthesis of thiopheno-quinizarine derivatives

4,11-Dihydroxyanthra[2,3-b]thiophene-5,10-dione (thiophenoquinizarine) and its 3-methyl derivative were obtained by the cyclization of quinizarin-2-yl derivatives of mercaptoacetaldehyde or mercaptoacetone in acid medium. 4,11-Dimethoxy-and 4,11-dibutoxyanthra[2,3-b]thiophene-5,10-dione were synthesized by the alkylation of the hydroxyl group in the synthesized anthrathiophenes with dimethylformamide dimethylacetal or butyl iodide respectively. Radical bromination of 4,11-dimethoxy-3-methylanthra[2,3-b]thiophene-5,10-dione, depending on the amount of N-bromo-succinimide taken, leads to the formation of 3-bromomethyl-or 3-dibromomethyl-4,11-dimethoxy-anthra[2,3-b]thiophene-5,10-diones. The action of sodium acetate on the obtained bromo derivatives with subsequent hydrolysis of the intermediate acetates led to the synthesis of 3-hydroxymethyl-or 3-formyl-4,11-dimethoxy-anthra[2,3-b]thiophene-5,10-diones. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1478–1485, October, 2007.     

Spektroskopische Eigenschaften von Di(phthalocyaninato)metallaten(III) der Seltenen Erden. Teil 2: Die Multikern(1H-, 13C-, 15N-, 17O- und 31P)-NMR-Spektren und Nachweis komplexgebundenen Wassers

Spectroscopical Properties of Di(phthalocyaninato)metalates(III) of the Rare Earth Elements. Part 2: The Multinuclear (¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ¹⁷O, and ³¹P) NMR Spectra and Determination of Complex Bound Water The ¹H, ¹³C, ¹⁵N, ¹⁷O and ³¹P NMR spectra of (PNP)[Ln(Pc^2?)₂] and (TDOA)[Ln(Pc^2?)₂] (Ln = La …? (—Pm) …? Lu); PNP: di(triphenylphosphine)-iminium; TDOA: Tri(n-dodecyl)n-octylammonium dissolved in CD₂Cl₂ are reported. With the exception of the nitrogen atoms of the cations all light atoms of both homologues complex salt rows have been detected and assigned. Proof of the presence of additional water contained in the (solid) complex salts has been given unambigously. The otherwise strong Fermi contact interactions diminuish rapidly with growing distance from the paramagnetic centre favouring dipolar (pseudo-contact) interactions. As a consequence the mostly element independent paramagnetic shifts of the atoms situated on the periphery of the anion as well as those of the cations and water are determined by the distance factor. Therefore a first glance of the structure of the ion-pair present in solution emerges, in which the water molecule seems to play an important role.     

Further Daphniphyllum Alkaloids from the Leaves of Daphniphyllum macropodum Miq.

Five new polycyclic Daphniphyllum alkaloids, macropodumines F ( 1 ) and G ( 2 ), 17‐oxoyuzurimine ( 3 ), and macropodumines H ( 4 ) and I ( 5 ), were isolated from the leaves of D. macropodum Miq ., collected in Sichuan Province, China. The structures and relative configurations of the new compounds – as well as of four known, related alkaloids – were elucidated on the basis of in‐depth spectroscopic and mass‐spectrometric analyses, by chemical derivatization, and by comparison of spectroscopic data with those of known compounds.     

Correlation between C and O chemical shifts and torsional strain in spiroacetals

The relationship between the ¹³C and ¹⁷O NMR chemical shifts and the dihedral energies (non-bonding interactions) of 1,4-dioxaspiro[4.4]nonane, 1,4-dioxa- and 6,10-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane, 1,4-dioxa- and 6,11-dioxaspiro[4.6]undecane, 1,5-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane, 1,5-dioxa and 7,12-dioxaspiro[5.6]dodecane and 1,6-dioxaspiro[6.6]tridecane were analyzed. These data showed correlation of the non-bonding interactions with the chemical shift of the spiranic carbon, as well as a linear relationship between ¹³C and ¹⁷O.     

Interaction of 2-bromo-7-methyl-5-oxo-5H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-α]pyrimidine with methylene-active compounds and acid hydrolysis of its products

Reactions of 2-bromo-7-methyl-5-oxo-5H-1,3,4-thiadiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidine with sodium derivatives of pentane-2,4-dione, malonodinitrile, Meldrum acid, acetoacetic, cyanoacetic and malonic esters have been shown to give the respective substituted derivatives. Azinyl-ylidene tautomerism has been found to be characteristic of these compounds, the latter existing mainly in the ylidene form. The acid hydrolysis of pentane-2, 5-dione and cyanoacetic and malonic esters derivatives has been investigated.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

17O NMR Investigation of Chemical Homogeneity in Hybrid Systems

¹⁷O NMR experiments using enriched water were performed to followthe hydrolysis-condensation process of dimethyldiethoxysilanetetraethoxysilane and a 1/1 mixture of dimethyldiethoxysilane andtetraethoxysilane (H₂O/OEt = 0.5; pH = 2). The spectrarecorded over several hours time period were simulated to followquantitatively the variations of residual water, hydroxyl groups(Si–¹⁷ H) and oxo bridges (Si–¹⁷ –Si). Presence of a resonance signal due oxo bridges between di- andtetrafunctional Si units clearly demonstrates that co-condensationreactions occur to a large extent between the two alkoxides, and that thesebonds are stable during the aging period.
