Ionization constants for deuterium oxide in deuterium oxide-organic mixtures

A potentiometric method using a glass electrode has been applied to determination of ionization constants for deuterium oxide (D₂O) in binary mixtures of D₂O with dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, acetone, dimethylsulfoxide, CH₃CH₂OD, and CH₃OD at 25°C. The results are compared with values of ionization constants for H₂O obtained previously in the corresponding H₂O-organic mixtures, and the isotope effect is shown to be small. Further calculations with the D₂O results show that the first five solvents mentioned above are neither appreciably acidic nor basic in D₂O solution, but that CH₃OD shows slightly acidic behavior (pK_a=16.0±0.3).

Kinetics of the thermal dehydrations and decompositions of some mixed metal oxalates

Both isothermal and programmed temperature experiments have been used to obtain kinetic parameters for the dehydrations and the decompositions in nitrogen of the mixed metal oxalates: FeCu(ox)₂·3H₂O, CoCu(ox)₂·3H₂O and NiCu(ox)₂·3.5H₂O, [ox=C₂O₄]. Results are compared with those reported for the thermal decompositions of the individual metal oxalates, Cuox, Coox·2H₂O, Niox·2H₂O and Feox·2H₂O. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was also used to examinee the individual and the mixed oxalates. Dehydrations of the mixed oxalates were mainly deceleratory processes with activation energies (80 to 90 kJ·mol⁻¹), similar to those reported for the individual hydrated oxalates. Temperature ranges for dehydration were broadly similar for all the hydrates studied here (130 to 180°C). Decompositions of the mixed oxalates were all complex endothermic processes with no obvious resemblance to the exothermic reaction of Cuox, or the reactions of physical mixtures of the corresponding individual oxalates. The order of decreasing stability, as indicated by the temperature ranges giving comparable decomposition rates, was NiCu(ox)₂>CoCu(ox)₂>FeCu(ox)₂, which also corresponds to the order of increasing covalency of the Cu−O bonds as shown by XPS.

Molecular structure of (diethyldithiocarbomoyl)diphenylthiophosphinate

X-Ray study of (diethyldithiocarbomoyl)diphenylthiophosphinate was carried out. AZ-conformation of the diethyldithiocarbomoyl ligand, which results in a short nonvalent intramolecular P...S contact (3.315 Å), is realized in the molecule. Steric hindrances in the molecule increase the P-S-C bond angle to 106.39°.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Products of lithium interaction with nanostructured oxides SnO2-TiO2 and mechanism of charge-discharge of electrodes in a lithium-ion battery

Products of lithium interaction with thin-film nanostructured SnO₂-TiO₂ (ST) oxides are studied with the aid of x-ray diffraction analysis and Moessbauer spectroscopy on the ¹¹⁹Sn nuclei. Electrochemical properties of a series of the ST electrodes with different concentrations of TiO₂ varied from 0 to 20 mol % are also examined. It is concluded that the specific feature of the charge-discharge mechanism of the ST electrodes is a significant participation of oxygen in reversible reactions during insertion and extraction of lithium as compared with an alloying mechanism of operation of tin-containing anodes. The leading role in this is played by titanium oxide. Remaining stable towards reduction by lithium, it facilitates the holding of the neighboring layers of SnO₂ in a nanodisperse state and in an oxidized state. The effect of a decrease in the capacity degradation in modified TiO₂ electrodes, which is discovered in this work, is attributed to the hampering of the growth of nanocrystallites of β-Sn by interlayers of tin and titanium oxides mentioned above.     

Thallium-205 NMR spectroscopy. Solvation of the thallous ion in dilute aqueous-amide and amide-amide binary solvent systems of formamide,N-methylformamide,andN-ethylformamide

Solvation of the thallous ion in dilute solutions of six binary solvent systems (formamide/water,N-methylformamide/water,N-ethylformamide/water, formamide/N-methylformamide, formamide/N-ethylformamide, andN-methylformamide/N-ethylformamide) was studied with²⁰⁵Tl NMR spectroscopy. An attempt was made to separate solvation effects related to the electrondonating ability (Lewis basicity) of the solvents from effects resulting from structural changes in the solvation sphere. Structural effects were found to be greatest in theN-methylformamide/water system and least in theN-methylformamide/formamide system.     

Ion interaction approach to calculations of volumetric properties of aqueous multiple-solute electrolyte solutions

The ion interaction approach developed by Pitzer was used for the prediction of volumetric properties of mixed electrolyte solutions at 25°C based on parameters calculated from experimental data for single-solute electrolyte solutions. Such an approach was shown to be especially effective for application to the calculation of volumetric properties of natural hypersaline brines and of industrial electrolyte solutions of large complexity. The use of the latest recommended sets of volumetric ion interaction parameters for single electrolyte solutions and symmetrical mixing parameters for Na–K–Cl ion combinations considerably improved the precision of the density calculations of highly concentrated mixed electrolyte solutions and of various natural waters.

Thin-layer adsorption chromatography with mixed mobile phases. 4. Extension of Ościk's equation to heterogeneous adsorbents

In this paper the equation for thin-layer adsorption chromatography with multicomponent mobile phases, proposed by O?cik in 1965 is extended to energetically heterogeneous solid surfaces. Other forms of this equation, more convenient in practical applications, are presented. Model calculations are made for TLC with binary mobile phases according to the modified form of O?cik's equation. Finally, this equation is compared with that of Snyder.     

Multilayer effects in liquid adsorption chromatography with mixed mobile phases

This paper describes the theory of liquid adsorption chromatography (LSC) with mixed mobile phase, involving formation of multilayer surface phases. An equation describing the dependence of the capacity ratio upon the mobile phase composition is derived and theoretical curves illustrating the same dependence are calculated accordingly by assuming different thicknesses of the surface phase.
