Reactions of 5-dialkylamino-1,2,3-thiadiazole-4-carbaldehydes with amines as a method for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazole-4-carbothioamides

A method for the synthesis of previously inaccessible 5-dialkylamino-substituted 1,2,3-thiadiazole-4-carbaldehydes was developed. Ring transformation in these compounds induced by primary aliphatic and aromatic amines, hydroxylamines, and N-substituted hydrazines resulted in the synthesis of a broad range of 1,2,3-triazole-4-carbothioamide.     

Synthesis, structure, and electrochemical properties of 12,42-dioxo-21,31-diphenyl-7,10,13-trioxa-1,4(3,1)-diquinoxalina-2(2,3),3(3,2)-diindolizinacyclopentadecaphane

The oxidative dehydrocyclization of the 3-(indolizin-2′-yl)-2-oxoquinoxaline monopodand performed either electrochemically or under the action of molecular iodine affords new redox-active heterocyclophane consisting of the redox-switchable biindolizine fragment combined with the polyether-bridged π-deficient quinoxaline systems. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction study showed that the trioxaundecane chain of heterocyclophane adopts an extended conformation, and one of the phenyl substituents of the molecule closes the pseudocavity formed by the spacer from one of the sides. The cyclic voltammetric study of heterocyclophane in MeCN and DMF showed the three-step oxidation of the indolizine fragments accompanied by the single-electron transfer in each step. The first and third steps are reversible, and the second step is irreversible. The oxidation at potentials of the first peak gives rise to stable radical cations detected by the ESR method (g = 2.0024, a _2N = 0.26 mT). Dedicated to Professor E. A. Berdnikov on the occasion of his 70th birthday. Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 10, pp. 1991–2003, October, 2007.     

Electroreduction of Pd(II) Complexes with α-Alanine on a Palladium Electrode

The kinetics of electroreduction of Pd(II) complexes with -alanine, Pd(ala)₂, is studied on a rotating Pd disk electrode in solutions of pH 8–13 containing large excess of -alanine and various supporting electrolytes (NaF, Na₂SO₄, NaClO₄). On a Pd electrode, complexes Pd(ala)₂ undergo reduction at potentials much more negative than on an Hg electrode. This is attributed to the chemisorption of water on the Pd electrode, which hampers adsorption of Pd(ala)₂ that take part in the slow electrochemical stage. As with the Hg electrode, perchlorate ions hinder the Pd(ala)₂ reduction on a Pd electrode. Studying adsorption of Pd(ala)₂ on a Pd electrode is hampered by parallel processes of hydrogen adsorption and absorption.     

氧缺位铁酸盐的制备及结构与还原行为的研究

在３５８Ｋ下用２００ｍｌ／ｍｉｎ的空气氧化碱性悬浮液合成了ＭＦｅ_２Ｏ_（４＋δ）（δ≥０，Ｍ＝Ｆｅ、Ｃｏ、Ｎｉ、Ｍｎ），并在５７３Ｋ下用４０ｍｌ／ｍｉｎ的Ｈ_２还原ＭＦｅ_２Ｏ_（４＋δ）制备了氧缺位铁酸盐ＭＦｅ_２Ｏ_（４－δ）（δ＞０）。用ＸＲＤ、Ｍｓｓｂａｕｅｒ谱等测试方法对铁酸盐的结构进行了表征，考察了铁酸盐的组成及第二金属组分（Ｃｏ、Ｎｉ、Ｍｎ）对铁酸盐还原性能的影响。在Ｈ_２还原３ｈ内，铁酸盐氧缺位程度随还原时间增加而增大，晶格常数也相应增大；５ｈ以上，铁酸盐将被还原为ＭＯ－ＦｅＯ或α－Ｆｅ，晶格常数几乎不变。按Ｆｅ、Ｃｏ、Ｎｉ、Ｍｎ顺序，ＭＯ与ＦｅＯ的相互作用能力、ＭＯ－ＦｅＯ固溶体的稳定性及铁酸盐还原为ＭＯ－ＦｅＯ的能力均增强，ＭＯ－ＦｅＯ进一步还原为α－Ｆｅ的能力却减弱。     

Reduction of 2,5-di-tert-butylcyclopentadienone and pyridine with thulium diiodide. Structures of the complexes TmI2(THF)2[η5-But2C5H2O]TmI2(THF)3 and [TmI2(C5H5N)4]2(μ2-N2C10H10)

Reduction of 2,5-di-tert-butylcyclopentadienone with two equivalents of thulium diiodide in tetrahydrofuran afforded the binuclear thulium(iii) complex with the cyclopentadienyl oxide ligand, viz., TmI₂(THF)₂[⁵-Bu^t ₂C₅H₂O]TmI₂(THF)₃ (1). Shielding of the carbonyl carbon atom with two tert-butyl substituents prevents pinacolization of the ketyl radical anions that formed upon one-electron reduction of cyclopentadienone. The reaction of thulium diiodide with an excess of pyridine in tetrahydrofuran gave a product of reductive coupling of two pyridine radical anions, viz., [TmI₂(C₅H₅N)₄]₂(₂-N₂C₁₀H₁₀) (2). The structures of complexes 1 and 2 were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.     

工科学校本科生科研训练与实践——以节能减排大赛为例

Scientific research training is an essential part of undergraduate learning, which plays an important role in improving students' knowledge utilization and scientific literacy. Taking the participation process of "Energy conservation and emission reduction competition" as an example, this paper briefly introduces the undergraduate scientific research training of students majoring in polymer materials and engineering from their own perspective, and the way to combine the discipline and school characteristics to reflect the thinking of engineering students in scientific research and practical application.     

Polarization Dependence of a Hydrophobized Electrode for Electrosynthesis of a Soluble Product

An equation for a polarization curve of a hydrophobized electrode is proposed for electrosynthesis of a soluble electroactive product in an inner-kinetic mode. The equation contains the concentration of the target product (TP) in an explicit form. The shape of the curve depends on the biquadratic root of the TP concentration and the square root of the ratio between exchange currents of the side and target reactions.

Electrochemical characterization of solid materials in volume range I. Chemical effects on the matrix-phase separation

The electrochemical phase isolation (EPI) is described as a preparation method for determining specific precipitations in solid materials in microamounts and microdimensions. Fundamental criteria are examined as a function of the main parameter (polarization current) on the system Fe₃C in a Fe-matrix. The influence of the electrolyte composition on the electrochemical behaviour of the matrix, on the one hand, and of the phase, on the other hand, are investigated and utilized.
