On Super-KMS functionals and entire cyclic cohomology

We formulate the super-KMS condition suggested by Connes and Kastler, in the context of entire cyclic cohomology of quantum algebras. We show that the Chern character of Jaffe, Lesniewski, and Osterwalder — associated by Kastler to a super-KMS functional — satisfies the entire growth condition. Hence, a super-KMS functional defines a cocycle for the entire cyclic cohomology of quantum algebras.Supported in part by the National Science Foundation.     

Reactions of lithiated 2,5-dimethylazaferrocene with selected electrophiles

Lithiation of 2,5-dimethylazaferrocene 1 with sec-BuLi/TMEDA in THF at −78 °C proceeds (as shown by quenching with D₂O) to comparable extent on the methyl groups and the Cp ring. However, the outcome of the reaction of the lithiated 1 with an electrophile depends on the nature of this electrophile. In the reaction with 4-methoxybenzaldehyde only the product originated from the lateral lithiation is formed, whereas the reaction with 4-methoxyacetophenone and 4,4′-dimethoxybenzophenone afforded mixtures of the products resulting from lateral and ring-lithiation. Similar results were also obtained in the reaction of lithiated 1 with chlorodiphenylphosphine and diphenyl diselenide. On the other hand, the exclusive formation of the Cp-substituted product was observed in the reaction of lithiated 1 with N,N-dimethylformamide. The structures of selected products (oily compounds were transformed into the corresponding crystalline W(CO)₅-complexes) were confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The presented reactions open a novel entry to specifically substituted azaferrocenes (especially those containing heteroatom substituents) with potential applications as ligands for the homogenous catalysis.     

The synthesis and characterisation of 1′-ethynyl-2,5-dimethylazaferrocene and derivatives

The synthesis of 1′-ethynyl-2,5-dimethylazaferrocene is reported along with its cyclic voltammetry measurements and the X-ray structure determination of its W(CO)₅-complex. Basic coordination and organic chemistry of 1′-ethynyl-2,5-dimethylazaferrocene is also presented via derivatives incorporating cis-Pt(dppe) and Si(Et)₃ units.     

Investigation of the electrokinetic properties of paraffin suspension. 2. In cationic and anionic surfactant solutions

Electrical phenomena at nonionogenic hydrophobic surfaces (solid or liquid) in water, electrolyte, and/or surfactant solutions still attract research. In part 1 of this paper we described the electrokinetic behavior of paraffin wax suspension in water and electrolyte solutions (NaCl or LaCl3). On the basis of the latest data of water structure near hydrophobic surfaces it was concluded that immobilized water dipoles at the interface can play an essential role in the zeta potential formation. In this paper were investigated the zeta potentials of paraffin wax in cationic surfactants cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, C16H33(CH3)3NBr, and octadecyltrimethylammonium chloride, C18H37(CH3)3NCl, and anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate, C12H25SO4Na. Also changes in wettability of the paraffin surface due to the surfactant's adsorption were studied via wetting contact angle measurements and calculation of the surface free energy. It was concluded that at a low surfactant concentration (10(-6) M) the water dipole structure still contributes to the zeta potential, but at a higher one the zeta potential is determined by the surfactant molecules' adsorption. A special role of OH- ions is also clearly seen. Moreover, a functional relationship was found between the surface free energy of the surfactant-covered paraffin surface and the zeta potential.
