The fluorite-related anion-excess structure of CeN0.222O0.667F1.333: Ordering of defect clusters

This investigation presents the preparation of CeN_0.222O_0.667F_1.333 by a solid-state reaction from a mixture of CeN:CeF₃:CeO₂ = 1:2:1.5 and its structural investigation. The samples were annealed at 900°C in platinum tubes for different times. The basic structure found by powder neutron diffraction is anion-excess fluorite-related. The unit cell is an orthorhombic distortion of the cubic fluorite cell and has the space group Abm2. The lattice constants are a = 577.71(2) pm, B = 572.76(5) pm, and c = 573.32(6) pm. The structure refined by Rietveld analysis shows that [1:0:2]- defect clusters are present. In samples prepared by longer annealing times an ordering of these clusters to larger aggregates, i.e., toward the vernier phases, was observed. This was deduced from full profile analysis without refining a structural model by comparing the instrumental resolution curves of several models.     

Elektrische Leitfähigkeiten geschmolzener Salzmischungen aus Strontiumchlorid und Alkalimetallchloriden

Electrical Conductivity of Molten Strontium Chloride-Alkali Chloride Salt Mixtures The temperature and concentration dependence of the specific electrical conductivity is measured for binary fused mixtures SrCl₂–MeCl (Me = Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs). Minima of the conductivity are found at the concentration x · 0.5 in the systems SrCl₂–(KCl, RbCl, CsCl).     

Gas chromatographic analysis of bifunctional amines after derivatization with methyldichlorophosphine and sulfur

Summary A derivatization procedure for the gas chromatographic analysis of bifunctional amines likeβ-adrenergic blocking drugs is described. The method consists of a two-step reaction with methyldichlorophosphine and sulfur in presence of triethylamine to form cyclic methylphosphonothioic derivatives. The properties of these compounds are discussed and the application of the method to the quantitation of ephedrine in human body fluids is presented. Presented at the 15th International Symposium on Chromatography, Nürnberg, October 1984     

Optisch aktive übergangsmetall-komplexe LXIV. Neue optisch aktive Cp(CO)Fe-acyl-komplexe mit

The novel complexes CpFe(CO)(COR)P(C₆H₅)₂NR'R^* with Cp = C₅H₅,C₉H₇ (indenyl); R = CH₃, C₂H₅, CH(CH₃)₂, CH₂C₆H₅;R` = H, CH<sub>3</sub>, C<sub>2</sub>H<sub>5</sub>, CH<sub>2</sub>C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub> and R<sup>*</sup> = (S)-CH(CH<sub>3</sub>)(C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>), have been synthesized by reaction of CpFe(CO)<sub>2</sub>R wiht P(C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>5</sub>)<sub>2</sub>NR`R^* and characterized analytically as well as spectroscopically. The pairs of diastereoisomers RS/SS have been separated by preparative liquid chromatography and fractional crystallization, respectively. The optically pure complexes (+)₄₃₆- und ()₄₃₆-CpFe(CO)(COR)P(C₆H₅)₂NR`R^* are configurationally stable at room temperature. At higher temperatures they equilibrate with CpFe(CO)₂R and epimerize with respect to the Fe configuration.     

Two remarks concerning toroidal groups

This paper deals with two quite unrelated properties of toroidal groups. After some preliminary remarks in section 0, we calculate in section 1 the Dolbeault cohomology groups of a toroidal group under an additional assumption which assures that those are at least finite-dimensional. In particular, we obtain a Hodge decomposition for these special toroidal groups. In section 2, we first give a new proof of a theorem of Cousin concerning the sections of topologically trivial line bundles on toroidal groups. As an application, we then show that, in a sense to be made precise, most abelian complex Lie groups of dimension ≥2 do not have any hypersurfaces.     

Untersuchungen an oxidischen Katalysatoren. XXXV. Redoxverhalten des Nickels in NiNaY-Zeolithen 2. Untersuchungen zur Dispersität von Ni- und Ni/NiO-Teilchen in reduzierten und reoxydierten NiNaY-Proben

Studies on Oxide Catalysts. XXXV. Redoxbehaviour of Nickel in Zeolite NiNaY. 2. Investigation on the Dispersion of Ni- und Ni/NiO-Species in Reduced and Reoxidized NiNaY Samples Oxygen chemisorption and electronmicroscopic measurements (ultramicrotome technique) correspondingly show a decrease of the metal dispersion with increasing reduction temperature (470–870 K) and exchange degree (10, 29, 54 equ.-% resp.). Contrary to this results electronmicroscopic measurements with replica technique don't reflect such a dependence. Increase of particle size after reoxidation (470 K) and reduction at 470 to 870 K (regeneration) of the NiNaY samples are attributed on the one hand to the aggregation of oxidic particles and on the other hand to metal sintering by the subsequent reduction step. A decrease of dispersion after a reoxidation process at 670 K is caused by formation and relocalisation of isolated nickel ions.     

Parton distributions for high energy collisions

Recent data from deep inelastic scattering experiments atx10^–2 are used to fix the parton distributions down tox10^–4 andQ ²0.3 GeV². The predicted extrapolations are uniquely determined by the requirement of avalence-like structure ofall parton distributions at some low resolution scale and are furthermore shown to be insensitive in the small-x region, 10^–4x10^–2, to the detailed experimental input at the presently accessiblex>10^–2. Simple parameterizations of the resulting parton distributions are presented in the range 10^–5x<1 and=">Q ²10⁸ GeV² as obtained from the leading- and higher-order evolution equations.
