Ultrasonic absorption and velocity have been measured in aqueous solution of Propyl Cellosolve (ethylene glycol monopropyl ether) in the frequency range of 7.5 to 220 MHz at 25 °C. A single relaxational process has been found and the mechanism has been attributed to the solute-solvent interaction, AB↔A+B. The rate constants obtained are

Photoelectrochemical processes at both n- and p-type MoS
2 electrodes were studied by rotating ring-disk electrode technique. In comparison with other semiconductor photoelectrodes such as CdS, ZnO, and TiO
2, the competitive oxidations of various reducing agents at n-MoS
2 electrode were not clearly dependent on their redox potentials. The MoS
2 photoanode was particularly stabilized in I
− solutions, and this was attributed to the specific adsorption of I
− ions on the electrode surface. Two step waves were observed in the photocurrent-potential curves of MoS
2 photoanode in I
− solutions. The first wave was controlled by the diffusion of I
− ions from the bulk solution to the electrode surface, and the second wave at more anodic potential was dependent on the formation of the photogenerated holes.

An analytical equation for the excess Gibbs energies of mixtures was derived on the basis of the non-random two-liquid model, which was applied to the derivation of an analytical equation for excess volumes proposed by the present author. The derived equation involves new adjustable parameters of intermolecular interaction. The validity of the equation was examined for 13 binary mixtures by using the non-randomness factors determined from the excess volume data, and it was shown that the calculated excess Gibbs energies were in good agreement with the observed values. The sequence of the values of the interaction parameters seems to be reasonable.

Glycine was obtained by the ammonolysis of trichloroethylene with aqueous ammonia. Various alkalines, such as alkaline metal hydroxides, carbonates, and hydrogencarbonates, accelerated the reaction; the yield of glycine was 40–70% after a 4 h reaction at 180 °C. Our results on the effect of alkalines indicate that ammonolysis proceeded sequentially
via the formation of aminoacetonitrile. A good yield of the intermediate compound, aminoacetonitrile, was obtained by heating trichloroethylene at 70 °C with anhydrous ammonia under reaction conditions.

An on-line impedance measuring system based on the fast Fourier transform algorithm was constructed by application of only commercially available interfaces and the FORTRAN language available for an OKITAC System 50/10. A modification of the sampling system is effective for reducing two kinds of errors: the aliasing effect is greatly reduced because of the Nyquist frequency being doubled; the leakage effect is diminished because of the truncation interval being adjusted properly. The above modification enables us to acquire high-accuracy data with quite a small number of averagings processed during one measurement, that is, errors may greatly be reduced and the measurement time to get frequency spectra may be made extremely shorter. The modified impedance measurement using the FFT algorithm is applicable to electrochemical systems proceeding not only at a mercury electrode–solution interface but also at a solid electrode–solution interface.

Experimental evaluation was made of rate constants for foward and backward steps of 1,4-cycloaddition between TCNE and α-methylstyrene and of constants for their complex formations in 1,2-dichloroethane, dichloromethane, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride at a few temperatures around 25 °C. Kirkwood’s dipole model for solvation is applied to analyzing kinetic data obtained. The dipole moment of the transition state is estimated to be 8.5±0.5 Debye, which is larger than either that of the complex (assumed as 1 Debye) or that of the cycloadduct (6±1 Debye). Major cause for the high dipole moment of the transition state is breakdown of the high molecular symmetry of TCNE and minor one is a certain contribution of a zwitterionic structure. The activation entropy for the cycloreversion is negative and in the range of −21 to −48 J K
−1 mol

Electric linear dichroism (ELD) of sodium poly(
p-styrenesulfonate) (NaPSS) and its 9-aminoacridinium (AA) complex at a mixing ratio of polymer residue-to-dye of 6.14 was studied in aqueous solutions at 20 °C. ELD signals were measured in the electric field strength range 0—
ca. 19 kV/cm at the absorption peak wavelengths; they showed a saturating trend at extremely high fields. The average angles between the orientation axis of NaPSS and the transition moments of chromophores were estimated to be 60° at 224.5 nm and 57° at 262 nm for the side chain phenyl group and 50° at 404 nm for the bound AA by using theoretical orientation functions derived for mono- and polydisperse systems. The ELD spectra were measured at fixed field strengths; 275–215 nm for NaPSS and 440–282 nm for NaPSS–AA. The reduced dichroism of NaPSS remained nearly constant throughout the 262 nm band but steadily changed below 224 nm in the 224.5 nm band, indicating that another band exists in the far UV region. The ELD spectrum of the NaPSS–AA complex revealed that the two electronic

An adiabatic high-pressure calorimeter was constructed. The calorimeter cell was devised for minimization of the cell mass relative to the volume of the sample chamber. The pressure in the cell was controlled by joining the cell with a transmitting tube to a stabilized high-pressure system. The adiabatic conditions were achieved by temperature control of the transmitting tube as well as of adiabatic shields inside the cryostat. Procedures for the precise pressure control and for the determination of the molar volume and heat capacity with the correction for the mass transfer of pressure-transmitting liquid in a series of measurement were discussed. The apparatus is capable of measurement under constant pressure up to 110 MPa and over the temperature range from 100 to 370 K. The results on liquid 3-methylpentane which was used as the pressure medium proved satisfactory performance of this new-type calorimeter.

1 state is the rate limiting step and the lifetime of an intermediate perpendicular state (

cis-isomer is less than a few picosecond. These observations strongly indicate that the isomerization reaction proceeds through the potential surface of the singlet excited states.

In the 20.0-matom dm
−3 Cu(II) solution of an initial pH of 4.0, more than 99% of it was removed by addition of calcium silicon alloy in
ca. 5 min, and the pH decreased to below 2. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the solid reaction product indicated that the Cu(II) removal took place through reduction to metallic Cu. In the 1.0-matom dm
−3 Cu(II) solution, the pH increased from 4.0 to above 9.0 in 30 min, which consequently maintained high removal for a long time. In the constant pH runs, relation of the equivalents of Ca and Si dissolved against that of Cu(II) ions removed showed that not only the Ca moiety but also the Si moiety participated in the reduction of Cu(II) ions. It is desirable to control pH value at 3.0 or higher, or to separate the solid phase from the liquid phase in the first 30–60 min in order to avoid excess dissolution of calcium silicon alloy and to attain high Cu(II) removal. Copper(I) oxide was formed in a solution of pH above
ca. 5, which was in contact with the air. In a HNO
3 solution, the removal decreased considerably. Sodium nitrate also caused strong interference with the removal which can be prevented by acidifying the solution with HCl to pH
ca. 1. When Hg(II) or Cr(VI) ions are present, the Cu(II) removal tends to decrease depending on the amount of calcium silicon alloy added.

3 followed Jandar’s equation, in the subsequent period. These
Ea values were considered to reflect the bond stability between the central Ni(II) ion and the axial pyridine ligands; these values increased with an increase in the electron-withdrawing property of R. The pyridine dissociation reaction may give rise to the complexes of the monomeric square-planar or to those of the associated, polymeric octahedral structure. Which result occurs does not depend only on the tendency of the central Ni(II) ion to accept, at the apical positions, the coordinate bond from the adjacent molecules.

The molecular arrangement has a center of symmetry and has a slightly distorted octahedral configuration around the central copper(II) atom; each ethylthioacetato ligand forms a chelate ring by coordinating through a sulfur atom and a carboxyl oxygen atom, and two water molecules are also coordinated to the central metal. The solid complex is deep green, different from the diaquabis(alkylthioacetato)copper(II) complexes of the higher alkyl groups (number of C≥3), and it is likely due to the CT band caused by the strong copper–sulfur bond in the complex.

Compounds which carry a methoxyl or a chloro group in 1-position and a substituted carbonylmethyl group in 9-position of the triptycene system have been prepared to examine populations of rotamers by
1H NMR spectra. The methoxy compounds favored the ±
sc conformations, whereas the
ap conformations were relatively favored in the chloro compounds. The results indicate that there are attractive interactions between the carbonyls and a methoxyl or a chloro group and are discussed from the electron-accepting ability of the carbonyl group and the electron-donating ability of the methoxyl and the chloro groups. An aldehyde group was apparently less able to interact with electron-donors than a ketone. This apparent anomaly was discussed from the intramolecular dipolar interactions.

Oxygenations of thioanisole derivatives have been shown to be promoted with phenobarbital induced rabbit liver microsomes. In order to understand the mechanistic details of the oxygenations, a kinetic study on the
S-oxygenation promoted by a reconstituted system with purified cytochrome P-450 has been carried out. Log(
Vmax) were correlated with the one electron oxidation potentials of the sulfides (
Ep). The oxygenation is considered to proceed
via one electron transfer from the sulfides to the iron-bound “oxenoid” intermediate of the enzyme. A similar
O-demethylation of anisoles has been investigated. In the oxidative
O-demethylation of
p-methoxy-
d3-anisole with rabbit liver microsomes, an intramolecular kinetic isotope effect of 3.4 was observed. Meanwhile, a large isotope effect of 5.1 was observed in the competitive
O-demethylation of
p-dimethoxybenzene and
p-di(methoxy-
d3) benzene. In order to clarify the oxidation pathway of
O-demethylation with the enzymatic system of cytochrome P-450, the rates of the
O-demethylation of
p-substituted anisoles have been measured. Unlike the enzymatic oxygenation of sulfides, there was no correlation between the rates of
O-demethylation reaction and one electron oxidation potentials of anisoles. These observations suggest that the
O-demethylation of anisoles proceeds
via the initial hydrogen abstraction with the iron-bound “oxenoid” intermediate of the cytochrome P-450.

N-(α-methylbenzyl)-1-propyl-2,4-dimethyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide (Me
2PNPH), in a solvent containing an
O-deuterated alcohol afforded products partially deuterated at their methine positions. The deuterium content depends both on the character of substituents in the substrate and on the polarity of solvent. In contrast, no incorporation of deuterium into the product was observed in the reduction of thiopivalophenone with BNAH or Me
2PNPH under the same conditions. These results can be accounted for in terms of an electron transfer followed by a proton transfer from the model to substrate. This is the first and direct evidence for the ion radical-pair intermediacy for reductions by model compounds of NAD(P)H.

However, all the four Co(II) hemocyanins did not take up oxygen molecule at all. The extremely similar spectral data for the four species revealed that there is no essential difference in the structure of the respective active sites. Both the two Co(II) ions at an active site are in the high spin state and in an distorted tetrahedral geometry, having no such ligating groups as cysteinyl or methionyl sulfur, but at least three nitrogenous ligands, probably histidine imidazoles. On the basis of these data, the environment of active site in native horseshoe crab hemocyanin is discussed.

α-Lithiated diethyl α-(trimethylsilyloxy)benzylphosphonate underwent facile acylation with various acylating agents to afford the corresponding α-acylated products in good yields. On treatment of the α-acylated products with 1 M NaOH–EtOH (1:1, v/v) the P–C bond was cleaved with elimination of diethyl phosphate to give α-hydroxy ketones predominantly. On the other hand, when diethyl α-acyl-α-ethoxybenzylphosphonates were treated under the same conditions, they were rather stable and recovered. However, the prolonged alkaline treatment or the use of 4 M NaOH–EtOH (1:1, v/v) resulted in the C–C bond cleavage giving carboxylic acids and diethyl α-ethoxybenzylphosphonate in quantitative yields, respectively. The mechanisms of the above two reactions were proposed and discussed in connection with the Perkow reaction and related reactions.

Trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate promotes ring opening reactions of oxirane derivatives. The reaction course is highly affected by the structures and substitution pattern of the substrates. Tetra-, tri-, and 2,2-disubstituted oxiranes and simple cycloalkene oxides are converted to the corresponding allylic alcohol trimethylsilyl ethers. The overall transformation is interpreted in terms of trans addition of the silyl trifluoromethanesulfonate to the oxirane ring followed by base-promoted anti elimination of a trifluoromethanesulfonic acid element. 2,3-Dialkyl- or monoalkyloxiranes isomerize to the corresponding ketones and aldehydes, respectively.

Described herein are several representative examples of cleavage reactions of otherwise hardly accessible organopentafluorosilicates which are obtainable
via the Diels-Alder reaction, ene reaction, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction of vinyl-, ethynyl-, or allyl-trichlorosilanes. The Diels-Alder reaction between vinyltrichlorosilane and
o-xylylene generated
in situ by debromination of α,α′-dibromo-
o-xylene afforded (1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl)trichlorosilane which was converted to the corresponding silicate. The silicate reacted with NBS and MCPBA to give the respective bromide and alcohol. The Diels-Alder reaction between ethynyltrichlorosilane and methyl coumalate gave a mixture of meta and para isomers of methyl (trichlorosilyl)benzoate in the ratio of 55/45, the silicate of which reacted with NBS to give two positional isomers of methyl bromobenzoate. The electronic effect of the methoxycarbonyl group on the Si–C bond cleavage was small. The silicate derived from 4-octenyltrichlorosilane which was obtained by the ene reaction between vinyltrichlorosilane and 1-hexene afforded, upon treatment with NBS, 4-octenyl bromide in the ratio of
E⁄
