Effect of aryl ligands on the chemical hardness of arylmercury cations

¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy was used to study the exchange reactions involving 4-fluorothiophenoxides, 4-nitrophenoxides, chlorides, and acetates of arylmercury and triphenylphosphinegold. The analysis of the data on equilibrium constants allows one to obtain information on the comparative chemical hardness of ArHg⁺ and Ph₃PAu⁺ cations. The increase in the electron-donating ability of aryl ligands enhances the chemical hardness of ArHg⁺ cations, their influence being best described by ⁰ constants of substituted phenyl groups.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Synthesis and some properties of 4-phosphorylated derivatives of 5-mercapto-1,3-oxazoles

Various approaches to the synthesis of new derivatives of diethyl 5-mercapto-2-R-1,3-oxazole-4-ylphosphonates were considered. The behavior of these compounds in the presence of mineral acids and alkalis resulting in the synthesis of previously unknown 5-mercapto-2-R-1,3-oxazole-4-ylphosphonic acids was studied.     

Ion-beam sculpting time scales

A study of ion sculpting dynamics in SiO2 and SiN using periodically pulsed ion beams reveals material transport that depends strongly on the time structure of the pulsed beams. It is found that significant nanoscale matter transport can occur over second long time scales after the ion beam has been extinguished. A simple phenomenological model described the dynamics of ion beam sculpting in terms of two material time scales. The model accounts for the surprising observation of enhanced matter transport affected by pulsed ion beams over continuous ion beam exposure.     

Detection and quantized conductance of neutral atoms near a charged carbon nanotube

We describe a novel single atom detector that uses the high electric field surrounding a charged single-walled carbon nanotube to attract and subsequently field-ionize neutral atoms. A theoretical study of the field-ionization tunneling rates for atomic trajectories in the attractive potential near a nanowire shows that a broadly applicable, high spatial resolution, low-power, neutral-atom detector with nearly 100% efficiency is realizable with present-day technology. Calculations also show that the system can provide the first opportunity to study quantized conductance phenomena when detecting cold neutral atoms with mean velocities less than 15 m/s.     

Confinement-enhanced electron transport across a metal-semiconductor interface

We present a combined scanning tunneling microscopy and ballistic electron emission microscopy study of electron transport across an epitaxial Pb/Si(111) interface. Experiments with a self-assembled Pb nanoscale wedge reveal the phenomenon of confinement-enhanced interfacial transport: a proportional increase of the electron injection rate into the semiconductor with the frequency of electron oscillations in the Pb quantum well.     

4-hydroxy-2-quinolones 125. Ethyl 3-bromo-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline-3-carboxylates as potential brominating agents

The spatial structural features of 3-bromo-3-ethoxycarbonyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines have been studied by X-ray analysis. It has been experimentally confirmed that these compounds can be regarded as potential brominating agents. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1189–1195, August, 2007.
