Quartz Crystal Microbalance And Electrical Impedance Characterization Of Nickel Dissolution Process.
2005
Abstract. The anodic nickel dissolution in acid media is analysed by means of EQCM and EIS techniques. The experimental impedance spectra have been fitted to the equivalent circuit which corresponds to two consecutive electron transfers followed by a Ni(II) desorption. That way rate constants and surface concentrations of the Ni(0) and Ni(I) species are obtained. EQCM also provides information about the mechanism of deposition and passivation of nickel as well as the hydrogen evolution.
Mössbauer effect study of the temperature and pressure dependence of the singlet-quintet intersystem crossing dynamics in an iron(II) spin crossover …
1988
The lineshapes of Mossbauer spectra of the iron(II) spin crossover complex [Fe(6-mepy)3 tren] (PF6)2 are affected by the dynamics of the HS⇌LS equilibrium. The lineshapes are reproduced with a stochastic two-state-relaxation-model yielding rate constants similar to those determined for related complexes in solution. Application of an external pressure of 150 MPa increases the relaxation rate.
Magnetic predissociation in Te 2 B 1 u
1997
We report a registration of magnetic predissociation (MPD) of electronically excited molecules via peculiarities in magnetic field B induced alignment-orientation conversion (AOC). Non-linear magnetic energy shift and heterogeneous MPD produce dispersion type fluorescence circularity signals C(B) of different sign. Measurements on B 1 u - , v(J) equals 2(96) state of 130 Te 2 yielded natural C v het equals plus or minus 6 s -1/2 and magnetic (alpha) v het equals minus or plus 9 multiplied by 10 3 s -1/2 T -1 rate constants of heterogeneous PD, supposing that the B1 u - state PD takes place through O u - state continuum.
Effect of Lithium Perchlorate on the Kinetics of the Anionic Polymerization of Methyl Methacrylate in Tetrahydrofuran
1999
The kinetics of the anionic polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of lithium perchlorate (LiClO 4 ) are investigated in THF using 1,1-diphenylhexyllithium as initiator in a flow-tube reactor between -30 and 0 °C. The rate constants of propagation determined in the presence of LiClO 4 are lower than those obtained in the absence of the salt, similar to the effect observed for LiCl. For propagation, the reaction order with respect to active center concentration is found to be 0.5 in both cases, which indicates that LiClO 4 does not effectively perturb the aggregation of the enolate ion pair. The formation of various mixed aggregates is proposed. The polydispersity index of the…
Inverse solvent effects in the heterogeneous and homogeneous epoxidation of cis-2-heptene with [2-percarboxyethyl]-functionalized silica and meta-chl…
2014
The rate constants for the epoxidation of cis-2-heptene with [2-percarboxyethyl]-functionalized silica (1a) and meta-chloroperbenzoic acid (mCPBA) (1b) in different solvents have been determined at temperatures in the −10 to 40 °C range. The heterogeneous epoxidation exhibits a dependence of the reaction rate on solvent polarity opposite to its homogeneous counterpart and anomalous activation parameters in n-hexane, which are interpreted in terms of the surface-promoted solvent structure at the solid–liquid interface. The results show that highly polar solvents can strongly inhibit heterogeneous reactions performed with silica-supported reagents or catalysts.
Kinetik der bromierung von phenolen und phenolischen mehrkernverbindungen, 3. Die reaktionsfähigkeit isomerer dreikernverbindungen und einer homologe…
1976
Die Geschwindigkeit der Bromierung von drei isomeren Dreikernverbindungen und einer homologen Reihe von Mehrkernverbindungen mit bis zu sechs Methylphenolbausteinen pro Molekul wurde in Eisessig bei 22°C UV-spektroskopisch gemessen. Alle Verbindungen waren so gewahlt, das sie nur eine reaktionsfahige ortho-Stellung in bezug auf die Hydroxy-Gruppe besasen. Es zeigte sich, das die Reaktionsgeschwindigkeit im wesentlichen dadurch bestimmt wird, ob zwischen den phenolischen Hydroxy-Gruppen des reagierenden Endbausteins und des unmittelbar benachbarten Bausteins eine intramolekulare Wasserstoffbrucke moglich ist. Ist dies nicht der Fall, so sind die Geschwindigkeitskonstanten zweiter und dritter…
Atom-based non-stochastic and stochastic bilinear indices: Application to QSPR/QSAR studies of organic compounds
2008
The recently introduced bilinear indices are applied to the QSAR/QSPR studies of heteroatomic molecules. These novel atom-based molecular fingerprints are used to predict the boiling point of 28 alkyl-alcohols and partition coefficient, specific rate constant and antibacterial activity of 34 2-furylethylenes derivatives. The obtained models are statistically significant and show rather very good stability in a cross-validation experiment. The comparison with other approaches exposes a good behavior of our method in this QSPR studies. The obtained results suggest that with the present method, it is possible to obtain a good estimation of physical, chemical and physicochemical properties for …
Organic solvents vapor pressure and relative humidity effects on the phase transition rate of α and β forms of tegafur.
2011
The objective of this work was to investigate the relative humidity (RH) and solvent vapor pressure effects on the phase transition dynamics between tegafur polymorphic forms that do not form hydrates and solvates. The commercially available α and β modifications of 5-fluoro-1-(tetrahydro-2-furyl)-uracil, known as the antitumor agent tegafur, were used as model materials for this study. While investigating the phase transitions of α and β tegafur under various partial pressures of methanol, n-propanol, n-butanol, and water vapor, it was determined that the phase transition rate increased in the presence of solvent vapors, even though no solvates were formed. By increasing the relative air h…
Modelling phase transition kinetics of chenodeoxycholic acid with the Runge–Kutta method
2009
Abstract The phase transition kinetics of two chenodeoxycholic acid polymorphic modifications— form I (stable at high temperature), form III (stable at low temperature) and the amorphous phase has been examined under various conditions of temperature and relative humidity. Form III conversion to form I was examined at high temperature conditions and was found to be non-spontaneous, requiring seed crystals for initiation. The formation kinetic model of form I was created incorporating the three-dimensional seed crystal growth, the phase transition rate proportion to the surface area of form I crystals, and the influence of the amorphous phase surface area changes with an empirical stage poin…
Solvent-mediated phase transformation between two tegafur polymorphs in several solvents
2014
This paper describes a study of the solvent-mediated polymorphic transformation (SMPT) of the metastable α tegafur to the thermodynamically stable β tegafur in several solvents. Phase transformation in acetone, ethanol, i-propanol, toluene, and water at 22 °C was described using the solid-state kinetic model P2; the rate constants for this process were in the range from 0.028 min−1 to 0.0056 min−1. In all of the employed solvents, an induction time was observed. Kinetic, solubility and scanning electron microscopy data indicated that nucleation kinetics corresponded to a second-order power function and according to the kinetic model, the nuclei growth rate was constant in the examined SMPT.…
