Parametrization of the scattering indicatrix for a finite scattering medium

We consider a method of parametrizing the radiative scattering indicatrix. The scattering indicatrix is represented as projections , , on the axes of a Cartesian system of coordinates. Examples are discussed of the experimental determination of these parameters for a model dispersive medium consisting of a solution of polystyrene latex particles in water.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 36–39, October, 1985.

Investigation of the structure of 1,2-dihydro-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-nitropyrazol-5(3H)-one by spectroscopic and quantum-chemical methods

The structure of the previously synthesized 1,2-dihydro-3-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-4-nitropyrazol-5(3H)-one (I) was studied by ¹H and ¹³C NMR, IR, and electronic spectra. It was established that the NMR spectra of compound (I) do not contain signals for the H atom at position 4 and the C atoms of the carbonyl groups; in the crystalline state and in solutions the IR spectra do not contain v_c=o bands, while the electronic spectra do not contain absorption in the region of 250 nm. On the basis of the foregoing it is concluded that compound (I) exists in the OH form. The distribution of -electron density in the molecule of (I) and the nature of the bands in its electronic absorption spectrum were studied by quantum-chemical methods in the PPP approximation.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1510–1516, November, 1990.     

New methods for the synthesis of amides of benzo[b]thiophene-2carboxylic acid

The reaction of 3-bromothiocoumarin with nitrogen bases, during which the thiocoumarin system is converted to a benzothiophene system, was studied. A new method for the synthesis of amides of benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid is proposed.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 10, pp. 1340–1342, October, 1978.     

Synthesis of hydrocarbons and alcohols from CO and H2 in the presence of CO-Rh catalysts

Catalysts of 4.5% Co- 0.1% Rh- 5:10% Cu/TiO ₂ display high activity in the synthesis from CO and H₂ of a mixture of hydrocarbons and alcohols at 250–300°C and pressures of 0.1–6.0 MPa; these catalysts are more selective than traditional Co catalysts with respect to alcohol formation.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1707–1709, August, 1990.

The effect of radiation defects in silicon single crystal lattice on the characteristic states of the interstitial muonium atom

Radiation defects are shown experimentally to affect differently the normal and anomalous muonium states in silicon. This evidences essentially different mobilities of the two muonium states in the sample lattice.     

Synthesis of 4H-[1]benzopyrano[3,4-c][1,2,5]thyadiazol-4-one and its reactions with some nucleophilic and electrophilic agents

The reaction of 3,4-diaminocoumarin with thionyl chloride gave 4H-[1]benzopyrano[3,4-c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-one (II), which was cleaved by the action of nucleophilic agents to the corresponding 4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,5-thiadiazole-3-carboxylic acid derivatives. The nitration of II leads to the 8-nitro or 6,8-dinitro derivative; the latter was isolated in the form of 4-(2-hydroxy-3,5-dinitrophenyl)-1,2,5-thiadiazole-3-carboxylic acid.See [3] for our preliminary communication.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 7, pp. 977–981, July, 1988.
