    Notes: Abstract  We examined the utility of otolith minor and trace element chemistry, assayed with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), as a means of delineating population structure in the Nassau grouper (Epinephelus striatus). We characterized the elemental composition of otoliths collected in 1993 from three locations in Exuma Sound, Bahamas and from Glover Reef, Belize in 1995. A single location in Exuma Sound was sampled in 1994 to test temporal variability in otolith composition. Five elements (Ca, Zn, Sr, Ba and Pb) were routinely detected, at levels significantly above background, by solution-based ICP-MS. Results from analysis of variance of elemental data, expressed as a ratio to Ca, indicated that there were no significant differences among the Exuma locations for any element, but significant variability was found between Glover Reef and the pooled Exuma localities for Zn/Ca, Sr/Ca and Ba/Ca ratios. Significant inter-annual differences at one Exuma Sound location was restricted to Ba/Ca ratios. Discriminant function analysis correctly classified 86% and 95% of the Belize and pooled Exuma sites, respectively. Otoliths from Belize were characterized by low Zn/Ca and high Ba/Ca and Pb/Ca ratios compared to otoliths from fish collected in Exuma Sound. Although differences in Ba levels may be related to upwelling at Glover Reef, more data are needed to definitely link otolith composition with regional differences in water chemistry.

    Notes: The tetrapodal pentaamine ligand 2,6-bis(1′,3′-diamino-2′-methylprop-2′-yl)pyridine (1), which contains four equivalent primary amino groups, can be derivatised partly or completely by Schiff base condensation with suitable carbonyl compounds. The new ligands thus obtained are mononucleating, as shown by the X-ray crystal structures of their respective nickel(II) complexes. Reaction of 1 with 1 equiv. of salicylaldehyde and subsequent reduction allows the selective modification of one of the four sidearms. The resulting ligand 2 is hexadentate and uninegative in its nickel(II) complex {[(2)Ni]PF6} (3) with both the secondary amine and the phenoxide functionalities coordinated to the metal centre. The unreduced Schiff base form of the ligand, 4, does not form a complex with nickel(II) as readily, and only a small quantity of the mixed salt {[(4)Ni][(1)Ni(H2O)](Br)2(PF6)} (5)has been obtained. While the overall coordination of 4 resembles that of 2, there is considerably more strain in the appended chelate ring, due to the presence of the C=N double bond. Modification of one arm in 1 can also be achieved by condensation with 1 equiv. of acetylacetone, to give the new ligand 6 which, likewise, is hexadentate in its NiII complex {[(6)Ni](PF6)2} (7). In this case, however, the N/O-functional sidearm is not deprotonated. Rather, it is coordinated as the keto-imine tautomer, making 7 a rare example of a metal complex containing this structural fragment. Two-fold functionalisation of 1 is observed upon reaction with acetone, regardless of whether the ketone is present in stoichiometric amounts or in excess, to give the pentadentate ligand 8with two diagonally juxtaposed isopropylidene-imine units. The complex isolated with this ligand {[(8)Ni](PF6)2} (9) contains pentacoordinate NiII, the sixth coordination site being blocked by the rigidly positioned isopropylidene groups. When reacted with 4 equiv. of trans-cinnamaldehyde, all the primary amino groups in 1 condense to give the four-fold Schiff base 10, which acts as a pentadentate podand towards nickel(II). In this complex, {[(10)Ni(OH2)]Br2} (11), an aqua ligand completes the coordination octahedron. All ligands are stable towards hydrolysis when coordinated to the metal, despite the presence of alkyl-imine groups in some cases.

    Notes: The coordination chemistry of a series of dinickel complexes of the new septadentate amine-thiolate ligand N,N′-bis[2-thio-3-aminomethyl-5-tert-butylbenzyl]diethylenetriamine, H29, has been investigated in the context of ligand binding and oxidation state changes. The complexes [Ni2(9)(L)][ClO4]2 (10), [Ni2(9)(Cl)][Cl] (11), [Ni2(9)(L)][BPh4]2 (12), and [Ni2(9)(NCS)][OH·OH2] (13) have central N2Ni(μ-SR)2NiN′3L cores [L = labile solvent molecule (10, 12), Cl- (11), and NCS- (13)] composed of dithiolate bridged planar NiN2S2 and six-coordinate NiN′3S2L units. This is demonstrated for 11 and 13 by crystal structure determinations and for 10 and 12 by UV/Vis spectroscopy and room temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements. Complexes 10, 11, or 12 readily add other co-ligands at the NiN′3S2L fragment by substitution of the solvent molecule L (10, 12) or the chloride substituent (11). The overall structure of the parent complexes is not affected by the substitution reactions. An electrochemical study has shown that complex 10 undergoes two successive one-electron oxidations at +0.88 and +0.41 V vs SCE. The oxidized species are not thermally stable, but electronic absorption spectra and EPR spectra are indicative of the presence of NiIII species.

    Notes: A novel route to macrocyclic amine-thiophenolate ligands is described. The new, air-stable thiophenolate precursor 1,2-bis(4-tert-butyl-2,6-diformyl-phenylsulfanyl)ethane (4) is readily condensed with two equivalents of 1,2-ethanediamine or 1,3-propanediamine under medium to high dilution conditions to give 2 × 4 condensation products. The smaller 1 × 2 macrocyclic compounds are not produced under these conditions. Subsequent reduction with NaBH4 (reduction of imine groups) and Na/NH3 (reductive cleavage of aryl-alkylsulfides) provides the 36- and 40-membered amine-thiophenolate ligands H46a and H46b. The macrocyclic compounds are versatile ligands for the preparation of polynuclear transition metal complexes. With divalent nickel H46a forms the di- and tetranuclear complexes [Ni2(6a)] (7) and [Ni4(6a)][ClO4]4 (8). Reaction of 8 with four equivalents of NH4SCN yields the novel isothiocyanate complex [Ni4II(6a)(NCS)4]·10MeCN (9). The structure consists of well-separated molecules of the tetranuclear complex [NiII4(6a)(NCS)4] (Ci symmetry). Two symmetry-related binuclear [N2Ni(μ2-SR)2NiN4] fragments composed of thiolate-bridged distorted planar {N2S2Ni}- and distorted cis-octahedral {(SCN)2N2S2Ni} units reside within the cavity of the macrocycle. The intramolecular distance between the two binuclear units is 6.144(1) Å.

    Notes: The paramagnetic complexes di(mesityl)([5]trovacenyl)borane (5·), (mesityl)di([5]trovacenyl)borane (6··), and tri([5]trovacenyl)borane (7···) were prepared from [5]trovacenyllithium, (η5-C7H7)V(η5-C5H4Li), and (Mes)2BF, (Mes)BF2, and BF3, respectively. The propeller-shaped species 5·, 6··, and 7··· were subjected to X-ray diffraction with the aim of possibly correlating the twist angles with intramolecular intermetallic communication. Cyclic voltammetry points to successive vanadium-centered oxidation processes and boron-centered reduction, a small redox splitting δE1/2[(2+/+), (+/0)] being observed for 6··. According to EPR spectroscopy, performed in fluid solution, the exchange interaction J in the diradical 6·· approaches the fast-exchange region and is attenuated significantly by quaternization at boron in [6··-nBu]-. Although EPR spectroscopy of the triradical 7··· also indicates an extensive exchange interaction, the exchange parameters, derived from spectral simulation, follow the gradation J(7···) ≈ 1/3 J(6··). The magnetic susceptibility of 6·· and 7··· follows the same trend. As expected, compound 7··· exhibits spin frustration because it contains three antiferromagnetically coupled S = 1/2 systems that are arranged in an equilateral triangle.

    Notes: The neopentane-derived functionalized oxetane O(CH2)2C(CH3)(CH2OMs), 1, reacts with indenyllithium (LiInd) or fluorenyllithium (LiFlu) to produce the derivatives O(CH2)2C(CH3)(CH2R) (R = indenyl, fluorenyl), 2. The oxetane ring of 2 undergoes nucleophilic ring-opening by reaction with LiPR′2 to give the chiral chelate ligands (HOCH2)(CH3)C(CH2R)(CH2PR′2) (R = indenyl, fluorenyl), 5. Nucleophilic ring-opening by LiInd or LiFlu is possible too, resulting in the functionalized ansa-Cp ligands (HOCH2)(CH3)C(CH2R)(CH2R′) (R, R′ = indenyl, fluorenyl), 12. Electrophilic ring-opening of 2 with HBr to give (HOCH2)(CH3)C(CH2R)(CH2Br) (R = indenyl, fluorenyl), 3, is also possible. The alcohol function of 3 may be activated directly, whereas activation of this group in 5 is only possible after BH3 protection of the phosphane function. The mesylates (MsOCH2)(CH3)C(CH2R)(CH2Br) (R = indenyl, fluorenyl), 4, undergo, under basic conditions, spiro cyclization to produce spirocyclobutane derivatives 9 with the α-carbons of the five-membered cycles acting as the spiro centres. Substitution of the mesylate group of 4 by PR2 nucleophiles is therefore not possible. Ansa-Cp derivative (MsOCH2)(CH3)C(CH2Ind)(CH2Flu), 12c also reacts with LiPPh2 with spiro cyclization to produce 9d, instead of giving the substitution product. Tripodal ligands (CH3)C(CH2R)(CHPPh2)2 (R = indenyl, fluorenyl), 11, are accessible by the reaction of (MsOCH2)(CH3)C(CH2PPh2)2 with LiInd or LiFlu. All compounds are fully characterized by the usual spectroscopic and analytical techniques including single-crystal X-ray analyses in several cases.

    Notes: The crystal structure of an infinite inorganic chain consisting of MnII and an N-centered tripodal ligand N,N-(2-pyridylmethyl)[(1-methylimidazol-2-yl)-methyl]glycinate is presented. It exhibits a chiral helical structure with a pitch of two monomeric units (each monomeric unit containing one Mn atom). Each manganese is connected to its neighbor through a carboxylate bridge in a syn-anti geometry. Around each manganese center, two carboxylates bind in a cis geometry. This peculiar bridging geometry (syn-anticis) provides a broken-line chain, running in a zig-zag manner along the b axis of the P21 space group. The magnetic properties have been investigated. They show a pseudo-2D magnetic structure, with one major pathway along the chain and an inter-chain minor one. The intrachain coupling is a weak antiferromagnetic interaction (J/k = -0.25). This low value is entirely consistent with the geometry of the bridge. The interchain coupling is a weaker antiferromagnetic coupling (J′/k = -0.11) and could be mediated through π-π interactions between pyridine and imidazole from two adjacent helixes.

    Notes: Syntheses, spectroscopic properties, molecular structures, and bonding of novel calix[4]arene imido compounds are described. Treatment of M(NtBu)2(NHtBu)2Ia (M = Mo), Ib (M = W) or M(NMes)2Cl2(dme) IIa (M = Mo), IIb (M = W) (Mes = 2,4,6-Me3-C6H2) with p-tBu-calix[4]arene LH4 affords calix[4]arene metal complexes LM(NR) 1a, b (M = Mo, W; R = tBu) and 2a, b (M = Mo, W; R = Mes). Analytical and spectroscopic data are consistent with monomeric structures for 1 and 2, retaining a local C4v symmetry for the calix[4]arene metal fragment. These complexes are well-suited to bind small molecules like acetonitrile, tBu-isonitrile, or water within their macrocyclic pockets. The spectroscopic data of some inclusion compounds and the crystal structures of LMo(NtBu)(NCMe) 1a(NCMe), LW(NtBu)(OH2) 1b(OH2), LW(NtBu)(CNtBu) 1b(CNt Bu), LMo(NMes)(NCMe) 2a(NCMe), and LW(NMes)(NCMe) 2b(NCMe) are reported. All complexes contain a group VI metal imido [M=NR] moiety mounted on the phenoxide rim of the calix[4]arene ligand as well as an incorporated guest molecule within the cavity. Some insights into the structures of complexes of the type L′W(NR′) (L′ = p-H-calix[4]arene; R′ = H, Me) and into bonding in these compounds are provided by density functional theory, applying the B-P86 density functional and an all SVP basis set within the RI-J-DFT approximation. At least one π bond is of importance for calix[4]arene-metal bonding in these compounds. The metal-imido bond can be described as a triple bond. A geometrically optimized minimum structure of L′W(NMe) 4 shows a calix[4]arene ligand only slightly distorted from a local C4v symmetry and an almost linear tungsten-imido moiety.

    Notes: Three aza-cages with the anthracene-containing photoactive groups L1, L2, and L3 have been synthesized. All compounds are able to selectively encapsulate a lithium ion and solid complexes have been isolated. The formation equilibria have been investigated by UV/Vis and 1H, 13C and 7Li NMR spectroscopic techniques. The fluorescence emission of both free ligands and lithium complexes have been investigated. Results indicate that the CHEF (chelation enhancement of the fluorescence) effect obtained by lithium coordination exits although lower than that occurring upon full protonation.

    Notes: Three new copper(II) linear trinuclear compounds are reported, all of which were synthesized in-situ, with the general formula [Cu3(L)4](CF3SO3)2(Y)x, where L is the dehydronated ligand: N,N′-bis(pyridine-2-yl)formamidine (abbreviated as Hpdf), N,N′-bis(pyrimidine-2-yl)formamidine (abbreviated as Hpmf) and N,N′-bis(5-methylpyridine-2-yl)formamidine (abbreviated as Hmpdf), Y = EtOH or H2O and x = 0.5-1.5. The compounds were characterized by X-ray diffraction, IR, LF, and EPR spectroscopy and by magnetic susceptibility down to 4 K. The structure of the compound [Cu3(pmf)4](CF3SO3)2(H2O)1/2 was determined by X-ray crystallography; it was found to crystallise in the triclinic space group P-1 with a = 8.529(5), b = 15.760(5), c = 19.639(5) Å, α = 101.793(5), β = 101.263(5), γ = 102.389(5)°, Z = 2. The structure [Cu-Cu-Cu angle 174.96(11)°] consists of four nearly flat molecules of the ligand, which contribute to the propeller-type structure around the Cu-Cu-Cu axis. A strong antiferromagnetic interaction between the CuII ions is observed with calculated J values, based on the Hamiltonian H = -2J(S1·S2 + S2·S3) - 2J′·S1·S3, of -174(1) cm-1, -120(1) cm-1, and -167(1) cm-1 for the compounds studied with L = pdf, pmf, and mpdf, respectively. These values are in agreement with an S = 1/2 ground state below temperatures of 120-160 K.

    Notes: Dinuclear and polynuclear metal complexes with octahedral centers coordinated to di- or polydentate ligands are often obtained as complicated mixtures of various stereoisomers. Stereospecific synthesis of such species is therefore of high current interest. Chiral derivatives of pyridine can be used for this purpose. Dinuclear μ-chloro-bridged RhIII complexes with two didentate, cyclometalated thienylpyridine-type ligands at each metal center are formed stereoselectively when pinene groups are fused to the pyridine rings. The two octahedral RhIII centers have homochiral configurations, ΔΔ and ΛΛ. The heterochiral diastereomer ΔΛ is not observed. With (8R,10R)-2-(2′-thienyl)-4,5-pinenopyridine [Hth4,5-(R,R)ppy] the ΔΔ to ΛΛ ratio is 9:1 when the separation eluent contains NaCl. Modeling the ΛΛ and the ΔΛ isomers of the dinuclear species shows crowding of the pinene groups in both cases; however, the strain can be released by relatively small distortions only in the case of the ΛΛ isomer. NO3- cleaves the dichloro bridge, yielding the mononuclear species Δ[Rh(L2)2(NO3)] (2) in a completely stereoselective manner when NaCl is replaced by KNO3 in the eluent mixture. The molecular structure has been determined by X-ray structure analysis for both the ΔΔ and the mononuclear complex Δ[Rh(L2)2(NO3)] (2) in order to confirm the configuration at the metal center. 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and CD spectra were measured and the latter shows that the CD activity is solely due to the chirality at the metal center.

    Notes: The dimerization of phosphaalkynes (R-C≡P, R = H, Me, tBu) without and with the presence of transition metal fragments, including CpCo (Cp = cyclopentadienyl) and COT-Ti (COT = cyclooctatetraene), has been probed using density functional theory calculations (B3LYP with different basis sets). MP2 and CCSD(T) calculations were also performed for the [H2C2P2] systems. In an attempt to address the exciting controversy and uncertainty about phosphaalkyne dimerization, a number of dimer formation mechanisms proposed in the literature have been examined. Some new and plausible intermediates have also been identified.

    Notes: The transformation of acetylene into vinylidene, as promoted by the metal fragment [(pp3)Co]+ [pp3 = P(CH2CH2PPh2)3], is unimolecular and features the hydride-acetylide species as an intermediate. The paper describes a detailed ab initio study of the reaction, in particular with regard to the step involving 1,3-H shift. The best computational results are obtained by mimicking the pp3 ligand with actual ethylenic chains rather than with single PH3 molecules. The keypoints along the two-step reaction path (π-acetylene, hydride-acetylide, and vinylidene complexes, as well as intermediate transition states) have been optimized for CoI and RhI derivatives at the MP2 level. For the fragment [(pp3)Co]+, the barrier associated with transformation of the hydride-acetylide intermediate to vinylidene (20.6 kcal/mol) is easier to surmount compared to that for reversion to the reactants (28.6 kcal/mol). The situation is reversed for the analogous RhI system, with the initial π-acetylene adduct being slightly more stable. Although higher in energy, the hydride-acetylide species is the experimentally detected product of the reaction of acetylene with the fragment [(pp3)Rh]+. The salient chemical aspects of the 1,3-H shift are discussed in terms of perturbation theory arguments. Parallel EHMO calculations, which have provided a relatively good consistency with the ab initio results, allow the proposal of an orbital rationale for the mode of migration of the hydride ligand along the substantially linear Co-Cα-Cβ grouping.

    Notes: Photolytically-induced reactions of chromyl chloride with acetylene and but-2-yne (dimethylacetylene) in low-temperature argon matrices yield end-on ketene and dimethylketene complexes of O=CrCl2, respectively. The product formation probably results from an electrophilic attack of a Cr=O linkage on the C≡C triple bonds, leading to radical-like transition states or intermediates, which subsequently rearrange through 1,2-H or 1,2-methyl shifts. Consequently, allene is attacked at its central carbon and the allyl radical thus generated undergoes subsequent ring-closure to give a cyclopropanone complex of O=CrCl2.

    Notes: A series of tetrahedrally distorted copper(II) complexes with thiolate and imine coordination were synthesized. Schiff bases derived from 4-benzoyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazoline-5-thione and various diamines were used as tetradentate ligands to obtain tetrahedrally distorted metal chelates with [CuN2S2] complex units. Crystal structures of the complexes 1, 2, 5 and 6 and of ligand H25 have been determined by means of single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. The structure data show a strong influence of the diamine building blocks on the tetrahedral distortion of the copper(II) complexes. Results of Extended Hückel LCAO calculations correlate strongly with structural, electrochemical, UV/Vis- and EPR-spectroscopic features obtained experimentally. The calculations confirm for the whole complex series a strong delocalization of the frontier orbitals. The highest fully occupied molecular orbital shows a weak contribution, resulting from thiolate donor atoms, whereas the antibonding singly occupied molecular orbitals (SOMOs) are distributed between the copper(II) centre (ca. 35-40%) and the N2S2 donor set. The SOMO energy significantly lowers with increasing tetrahedral distortion of the coordination sphere. The influence of the tetrahedral distortion of copper(II) complexes on redox potentials, UV/Vis and EPR spectra is discussed.

    Notes: The synthesis of (η5-PinCp*)Re(CO)3 [PinCp* = tetramethyl(pinanyl)cyclopentadienyl] is described. Successive substitution of two CO ligands by NO+ and PPh3 generates a 1:1 diastereomeric mixture of chiral-at-metal [(SRe)/(RRe)-(PinCp*)Re(CO)(NO)(PPh3)]BF4. The diastereomers are converted with sodium methoxide into the derivative “esters” (SRe)/(RRe)-(PinCp*)Re(COOCH3)(NO)(PPh3), and then with (+)-(R)-(1-naphthylethyl)amine to the “amides” (SRe)/(RRe)-(PinCp*)Re(NO)(PPh3)[CONHCH(CH3)C10H7] [(SRe)/(RRe) = 1:1]. Fractional crystallisation separates the (SRe) isomer with an optical purity of 〉 98%. The latter compound has been characterized by X-ray structure analysis. By treating the (SRe)-amide with CF3CO2H and NaBF4, (SRe)-(PinCp*)Re(CH3)(NO)(PPh3) can be generated. Protolysis of this compound with HBF4/Et2O in CD2Cl2 at -78 °C leads to the solvent-stabilized complex (SRe)-[(PinCp*)Re(NO)(PPh3)(ClCD2Cl)]+BF4-. The thermal and configurational stability of this chiral Lewis acid is investigated at various temperatures. The syntheses of [PinCp*RhCl2]2, PinCp*TiCl3 and PinCp*M(CO)2(NO) (M = Mo, W) are also described. Starting with PinCp*M(CO)2(NO), the relatively stable 16-VE complexes PinCp*MCl2(NO) and PinCp*W(CH2SiMe3)2(NO) are synthesized.

    Notes: A new synthetic route for the synthesis of 5,5′-diamino-2,2-bipyridine (5) based on the coupling of 2-chloro-5-aminopyridine in the presence of NiCl2 × 6 H2O/PPh3/Zn in dimethylformamide is described. The reactions of the potentially ambidentate ligand 5 with salts of the transition metals Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ag, and Cd gave a variety of 13 metal-ligand complexes depending on the anion, the crystallization conditions and the metal-to-ligand ratio. The complexes obtained were characterized by thermal analyses, NMR including 113Cd-NMR, IR, and for the iron complex 57Fe-Mößbauer spectroscopy. The structure of eight of the compounds was elucidated by X-ray crystallography. All of these metal complexes show a bipyridine-metal coordination. The amino functionality was never involved in metal coordination. The intermolecular arrangement is dictated by hydrogen bonding from the amino functionality and by π-π stacking of the bipyridine rings.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under http://www.wiley-vch.de/contents/jc_2005/1999/99078_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: The new diiron complex [Fe2(tbpo){O2As(CH3)2}(CH3O)(CH3OH)](ClO4)3 · 5 CH3OH · 2 H2O (1) containing a (μ-alkoxo)(μ-dimethylarsinato)diiron(III) core was synthesized using the heptadentate ligand N,N,N′,N′-Tetrakis(2-benzimidazolylmethyl)-1,3-diamino-2-propanol (Htbpo). The complex was characterized structurally by X-ray crystallography. 1reproduces the coordination mode and the stoichiometry of the proposed purple acid phosphatase-arsenate inhibitor complex. More importantly, 1 is a good functional model for the activation of small molecules, since the solvent molecule in the coordination sphere of each iron ion can be substituted very easily by a small substrate molecule. This is confirmed by the comparatively high pH-dependent catalase-like activity of 1. In order to study the influence of the cacodylate bridge on the formation of the metastable adduct with hydrogen peroxide, the analogous hydroxo-bridged complex [Fe2(tbpo)(OH)(NO3)2](NO3)2 · CH3OH · 2 H2O (2) was employed. The reactions of 1and 2 with H2O2 were studied as a function of [H2O2], pH, temperature, and pressure, and the kinetic results including the activation parameters are reported. In the case of compound 2 the reaction proceeds in one step, and the observed first order rate constant, kobs, shows a linear dependence on the hydrogen peroxide concentration with a zero intercept. For complex 1 the kinetic traces could be fitted to two exponential functions. One of the observed pseudo-first-order rate constants, kobs1, exhibits a linear dependence on the hydrogen peroxide concentration with a zero intercept, whereas the other rate constant, kobs2, was independent of the hydrogen peroxide concentration. A mechanistic interpretation is presented.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under http://www.wiley-vch.de/contents/jc_2005/1999/99068_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: Indazolium trans-tetrachlorobis(indazole)ruthenate(III) exhibits excellent results against different tumor models in vitro and in vivo. To improve the water solubility necessary for the introduction of this tumor-inhibiting compound into clinical trials, we synthesized the corresponding sodium salt in a two-step ion exchange via the tetramethylammonium salt. The sodium salt shows a 35-fold higher solubility in water relative to the indazolium salt. We also synthesized the n-butylammonium, n-octylammonium, and tetraphenylphosphonium salts, all of which showed improved solubility in organic solvents. The X-ray crystal structure of the latter could be solved, proving the trans configuration of the complex anion. In spite of the paramagnetic RuIII center an assignement of the coordinated indazole protons could be made with the help of a COSY experiment.

    Notes: Butyllithium (nBuLi) deprotonates Ph2P-NHtBu in ether to give (Ph2P-NLitBu)2·OEt2. There is no Li···P interaction in this molecule. Three compounds of the type R′P(NLiR)2 have been obtained by lithiation of R′P(NHR)2, isolated as [BuP(NLitBu)2·OEt2]2, [PhP(NLiPh)2·OEt2]2 and [PhP(NLiPh)2]2. Reaction of nBuLi with MeP(NHiPr)2 in hexane/THF leads to [MeP{N(Li)iPr]2·THF}4 with an asymmetric cluster structure comprising one LiP3, three LiPN2, three LiP2N and one LiN3 cluster units. The molecular structures of these compounds as determined by X-ray structure analysis show that they are best depicted as N-lithioaminophosphanes and not as the isomeric P-lithioiminophosphoranes.

    Notes: The reaction of the carbonyl-functionalized phosphaalkenes RC(O)P=C(NMe2)2 [R = tBu (2a), Ph (2b)] with protic acids and alkylating reagents occurred at the two-coordinate phosphorus atom to give the phosphanyl-substituted carbocations 3a,b and 4a,b. In contrast, treatment with Me3SiOSO2CF3 resulted in attack at the oxygen atom by the silyl group, and the formation of [RC(OSiMe3)=PC(NMe2)2]SO3CF3 (5a,b). Similarly, the Lewis acids B(C6F5)3, Al(tBu)2Cl and AlMe3 were ligated to the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group. Two equivalents of GaMe3 were added to the oxygen and phosphorus atom of the phosphaalkene to yield the thermolabile complexes [RC(OGaMe3)=P(GaMe3)C(NMe2)2] (10a,b). In contrast, one molecule of InMe3 was bound to the phosphorus center of the phosphorus compound. Reaction of the phosphaalkenes with [Ni(CO)4], [Fe2(CO)9] or [{(Z)-cyclooctene}Cr(CO)5] also took place at the pnictogen atom, resulting in complexes of the type [RC(O)P{M(CO)n}C(NMe2)2] (R = tBu, Ph; M = Ni, n = 3; Fe, n = 4; Cr, n = 5). The chemical transformations reported here underline the versatile chemistry of phosphaalkenes and emphasize a relationship between carbonyl-functionalized phosphaalkenes and the well-investigated class of phosphorus ylides. X-ray structures of compounds 6b, 7b*, 10a, 11a and 12a are reported.

    Notes: A film-theory model is presented for nonisothermal gas absorption with a second-order exothermic reaction. The model accounts for the volatility of the liquid reactant and heat transfer from the liquid surface to the gas phase. The pertinent equations were solved numerically using B-spline collocation. Results from this solution show that for intermediate values of Hatta number the liquid-reactant volatility is deterimental to the enhancement of gas absorption. As Hatta number approaches zero or infinity, however, the effect of liquid-reactant volatility becomes minor. Heat losses to the gas phase drastically reduce the interfacial temperature rise, which in turn enhances or inhibits the absorption rate depending on the effective activation energy being larger or less than zero, respectively. Approximate expressions for the enhancement factor and the interfacial temperature rise were also developed. Comparisons with the “exact” numerical solution verified the accuracy of these expressions over a reasonable spectrum of parameter values. The model developed was applied to two cases representing real conditions: the chlorination of toluene and the sulfonation of dodecylbenzene. Volatility effects are shown to be important for the former system, while the relatively nonvolatile dodecylbenzene served as a counter example.

    Notes: Experimental responses from crystallization of copper sulfate pentahydrate, nickel ammonium sulfate, and soy protein in continuous MSMPR crystallizers were used to determine simultaneously crystal growth and nucleation rates and agglomeration kernels. Measured product crystal size distributions at steady state for all these systems were transformed into crystal volume coordinates to use two methods: moments analysis and optimization procedure for parameter characterization. An iterative nonlinear parameter estimation by optimization procedure was used to deduce the kinetic rate parameters in the solution of the agglomeration model in crystal volume coordinates, extended from the analysis by Liao and Hulburt (1976), from the translated data set for the product crystals. The kinetic results obtained for the copper sulfate pentahydrate system were correlated in terms of power law kinetic expressions depicting the effect of significant observable variables.

    Notes: Dynamic analysis of single-pellet cell for the measurement of diffusion and convection in porous catalysts is revisited. A complete mathematical model for the “diffusion-convection” cell is solved, and the relation between zero-and first-order moments of the cell response and operating parameters is derived. The validity region of the “simplified” boundary condition at the bottom of the pellet is quantified. The effect of the operating parameters on the cell time response to a tracer impulse is analyzed to check the practical range of operation of the system. It also is compared with the chromatographic technique.

    Notes: The deposition of yttria-doped zirconia has been experimented systematically in various types of porous ceramic substrates by a modified chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process operating in an opposing reactant geometry using water vapor and corresponding metal chloride vapors as reactants. The effects of substrate pore dimension and structure, bulk-phase reactant concentration, reactant diffusivity in substrate pores and deposition temperature are experimentally studied and explained qualitatively by a theoretical modeling analysis. The experimental and theoretical results suggest a reaction mechanism which depends on water vapor and chloride vapor concentrations. Consequently, the diffusivity, bulk-phase reactant concentration, and substrate pore dimension are important in the CVD process. Effects of deposition temperature on the deposition results and narrow deposition zone compared to the substrate thickness also suggest a Langmuir-Hinshelwood reaction mechanism involved in the CVD process with a very fast CVD reaction rate. Gas permeation data indicate that whether deposition of solid in substrate pores could result in the pore-size reduction depends strongly on the initial pore-size distribution of the substrate.

    Notes: A new technique for studying and recovering short-lived chemical intermediate species has been developed using a Couette reactor, which is an open one-dimensional reaction-diffusion system. Reaction occurs in the annulus between concentric cylinders with the inner one rotating and the outer one at rest. Fresh reagents are in contact with the ends of the annulus, but there is no net axial flow. The axial transport arising from the hydrodynamic motion is effectively diffusive, but has a diffusion coefficient 3 to 5 orders of magnitude larger than that of molecular diffusion. The oxidant (ClO2-) and reductant (I-) of an autocatalytic reaction are fed at opposite ends of the reactor. The reactants diffuse toward each other and react, forming a steady, sharp chemical front and a stable spatial concentration band of unstable intermediate species (HOCl) in the front region. Unstable intermediate species are thus stabilized at a well-defined spatial position where they can be recovered and studied. The experiments and numerical simulations demonstrate that the faster the reaction rate, the stabler the chemical front and the more effective the recovery of unstable intermediate species.

    Notes: A hybrid model is developed and implemented for predicting the limiting bound of the reactant conversion rate in an isotropic turbulent flow under the influence of a reaction of the type A + B Products. This model is based on the amplitude mapping closure of Kraichnan for the molecular mixing of a stochastically distributed scalar, and the eddy-damped quasi-normal Markovian (EDQNM) spectral closure for the two-point scalar covariance. The results predicted by this model compare well with available experimental data in both gaseous and aqueous plug-flow reactors, but point to the need for more detailed measurements in future experimental studies. With the implementation of the mapping closure, a simple analytical expression is obtained for the decay rate of the unmixedness. This expression is very convenient and is recommended for direct practical applications in the modeling and design of plug-flow reactors.

    Notes: A new approach to gross error detection provides unbiased estimates and 100(1-α)% simultaneous confidence intervals of process variables when biased process measurements and process leaks exist. Presented in this article are estimation equations for process variables, as well as equations that help identify biased measurements and process leaks. These equations include the power function for a global test, and two types of α-level component tests and their power functions. Important strengths and weaknesses of this approach are compared to those of the serial compensation strategy, in particular, by varying the significance level (α), the variance-covariance matrix (Σ), the size of measurement bias (δ), the number of biased variables, and the sample size (N). Accuracy of δ estimation and performance in detecting the presence of process leaks (γ) are also evaluated and compared. The proposed approach has unique features that can provide a basis for improving the reconciliation of variables in process operations.

    Notes: Experiments were carried out in bubble columns for a number of liquids at pressures between 0.1 and 2.0 MPa for two column sizes. Based on the experimental results as well as extensive literature data, the extent of the effect column dimensions have on gas holdup were determined, both at low and high pressures (which is of importance to scale-up). It was also demonstrated that none of the published empirical gas holdup equations incorporate the influence of gas density accurately. Therefore, a new improved gas hold-up equation is developed that incorporates the influence of gas and liquid properties with an average error of approximately 10%. Finally, it is also discussed to what extent theinfluence of pressure on other important design parameters such as the interfacial area, the liquid volumetric mass transfer coefficient, and gas and liquid mixing, can be estimated on the basis of empirical equations.

    Notes: To cope with modeling uncertainties and randomness of external disturbances, a new tracking control called the natural control concept is designed. Its implementation is completely independent of the internal dynamics of a controlled system, its desired output and external disturbances. The design algorithm established ensures a prespecified exponential quality of output tracking. The theory presented in this article is applied effectively to the design of natural tracking control for a chemical reaction process described by the fourth-order, linear, state-space mathematical model.

    Notes: Influence of the tube and particle diameter and shape, as well as their ratio, on the radial heat transport in packed beds has been studied. Heat transport experiments were performed with four different packings in three wall-cooled tubes, which differed in inner diameter only. Experimental values for the effective radial heat conductivity and wall heat-transfer coefficient for the pseudo-homogeneous two-dimensional model and the overall heat-transfer coefficient for the one-dimensional model are presented. Values were obtained for glass spheres, alumina cylinders, and alumina Raschig rings. The effective radial heat conductivity and wall heat-transfer coefficient can both be correlated as a linear function of the gas flow rate. The Bodenstein number for heat at fully developed turbulent flow is influenced strongly by the shape of the packing: 10.9 for glass spheres, 7.6 for alumina cylinders, and 4.2 for alumina Raschig rings. For the same packing, no significant influence is found of the tube diameter on the effective radial heat conductivity or on the wall heat-transfer coefficient. The overall heat-transfer coefficient can be described very well by the so-called “lump equation,” which gives the relations among the overall heat-transfer coefficient, effective radial heat conductivity, and wall heat-transfer coefficient. The “lump factor,” as used in the lump equation, has a best-fit experimental value of 7.4.

    Notes: Local instantaneous changes in heat-transfer coefficients due to the passage of gas bubbles in liquid and liquid-solid systems are measured. A special heat-transfer probe is developed and located within the bed to trace the instantaneous local heat-transfer rate during the passage of single gas bubbles. A microfoil heat flow sensor is attached to a foil heater, and the sensor-heater probe assembly can accurately measure the heat flux and the surface temperature over a small area. Signals from the sensor are amplified and interfaced with the microcomputer data acquisition system. Simultaneous visualization is performed using a high-speed video camera and a borescope to establish the correspondence between the visual and sensor signals, and hence relate the local instantaneous hydrodynamics to the heat-transfer rate. Local heat-transfer coefficient vs. time traces are analyzed in conjunction with visual signals. The heat-transfer coefficient exhibits a sharp peak in the bubble wake. In both liquid and liquid-solid systems, the observed local maximum in heat-transfer coefficient behind a rising bubble is due to the bubble-wake-induced surface renewal. Enhancement in heat transfer due to the bubble increases with the size because of increased surface renewal caused by larger bubble wake and stronger vortices. The local maximum in heat transfer, however, is more pronounced in liquid than in liquid-solid systems.

    Notes: A modified method of weighted residuals approach is presented that combines expansions based on limiting forms of the true solution to solve the population balance equation accurately for continuous agglomerative precipitation. A modified moment method is used that employs fractional moments and is stable for the infinite domain problem. Solutions are obtained for various values of the agglomeration parameter, and the results are fitted to Pade approximations providing simple relationships that can be used for data fitting, thus obviating further need to solve the population balance equation with a constant aggregation kernel. This method is applied to experimental data on the precipitation of nickel ammonium sulfate and calcium carbonate to yield kinetic parameters.

    Notes: A framework is developed to describe kinetics and column dynamics of ad(de)sorption from bulk liquid mixtures using surface excess as the variable to quantify the extent of adsorption. It is found that the transient rate of change of surface excess with time from a multicomponent liquid mixture can be expressed in terms of a surface excess linear-driving-force model. A local-equilibrium model can be developed to describe the column dynamics of ad(de)sorption from liquid mixtures. Both self-sharpening and proportionate pattern mass-transfer zones can be formed depending on the shape of the surface-excess isotherm and the selectivity of adsorption. Analysis of column dynamics for liquid mixture adsorption can be carried out analogous to that for adsorption from gas mixtures, when a constant pattern mass-transfer zone is formed. The length of the mass-transfer zone and the composition-time column effluent profile can also be derived analytically for such a case. Experimental kinetics and column dynamics data for ad(de)sorption of ethanol-water mixtures on a large-pore activated carbon are analyzed using these models.

    Notes: Pressurization and blowdown steps in pressure swing adsorption (PSA) with binary mixtures of inert and adsorbable species are studied. Modeling involves mass balances for the bulk fluid phase and inside particles, that is, intraparticle diffusion/convection models, momentum balance equations, and linear adsorption equilibrium isotherm. The importance of intraparticle convection in PSA is assessed. Mass transfer inside pores is enhanced by intraparticle convection, which leads to a better efficiency of adsorption (pressurization) and desorption (blowdown) processes. Performance is improved by intraparticle convection and lies between diffusion and equilibrium limits, as shown in propagation profiles of the adsorbable species mole fraction in the bed and inside particles.

    Notes: Intraparticle diffusion and adsorption equilibrium on octadecylsilyl-silica gel (ODS) were studied. As an adsorbate, p-tert-octylphenol (PTOP) was employed. The intraparticle diffusion coefficient was measured by the chromatographic technique and the moment analysis at zero and several surface coverages. Adsorption isotherms can be correlated by the Langmuir equation. The isosteric heat of adsorption and the activation energy of surface diffusion were constant regardless of the amount adsorbed. These results suggest that ODS has an energetically homogeneous surface. The effect of solvent on isosteric heat of adsorption in the liquid system was discussed qualitatively by the solvophobic theory. Surface diffusion coefficient of PTOP on ODS was of the order of 10-7 to 10-6 cm2/s. Surface diffusion was dominant for the intraparticle diffusion in ODS, and its coefficient increased with an increase in the amount adsorbed. Positive concentration dependence of the surface diffusion coefficient was interpreted in terms of diffusion by potential chemical driving force.

    Notes: A finite element analysis was carried out to study the mixing patterns of a viscous Newtonian fluid into a stirred tank. A helical ribbon screw impeller (HRS) was used as the mixing device. The numerical simulation involved the full three-dimensional resolution of the equations of change governing the flow in the tank. The circulation time and the torque were determined and compared with experimental data. A good agreement was found, showing the usefulness of the numerical approach for design purposes.

    Notes: New data on the dendritic growth and microstructure of ice crystals in quiescent pure water are reported for small subcoolings of 0.035 K 〈ΔT〈1.000 K, where thermal or natural convection is prevalent. Accurate and systematic measurements of the growth velocity VG and the tip radii of the edge and basal planes R1 and R2 were made as functions of time.The central point of this work is that with the harmonic mean of the tip radii Rm as the lengthscale, the intensity of natural convection can be correlated accurately by using the thermal convection analogy, Gr = Re2. On this basis, natural convection has a crucial effect on dendritic growth of ice at ΔT〈0.35 K, the region of subcooling in which the tip of the dendrite splits consistently.The experiments show that the morphological stability parameter C* is independent of subcooling and equals 0.075, when the lengthscale is Rm. With the observed values of R1 and R2, the aspect ratio is 28, and the growth velocity for small ΔT is significantly higher than that predicted by the conduction theory of Horvay and Cahn (1961). Thus, the effect of convection on the growth of ice crystals is more important as the subcooling decreases.Moving boundary solutions of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes and energy equations for the dendritic growth of an elliptical paraboloid were obtained here with the Stokes flow approximation. Experimental observations of the quantities, VG, R1, and R2, agree well with predictions of this theory when Gr=Rem2 is based on Rm. In contrast, if convection is neglected in the theory, it does not agree with the experiments and the difference increases significantly as the subcooling is decreased.

    Notes: Processes, in which a multicomponent mixture of chemically similar compounds undergoes cracking reactions governed by nonlinear kinetics, are analyzed. Cracking reactions in general imply cleavage of chemical bonds between monomeric units. The article focuses on the case of the “uniform” kinetics. To obtain an analytical solution of the kinetic equations describing this process, we present an approach based on a continuous description of the mixture. The resulting nonlinear integrodifferential equation has been linearized by a warped time scale, and a formal solution has been obtained via a regular perturbation method. The perturbation parameter is twice the inverse of the initial average number of monomeric units in excess of the minimum number that can be cracked by the reactions considered.

A detailed set of phasic volume fraction data were measured for the various flow regimes observed in air/water/oil flows. This article shows that drift-flux techniques can be used to predict the phasic volumetric fractions for horizontal three-phase flows, such as those which may occur in off-shore oil well lines.

    Notes: We present an approach for determining in vitro the means and distributions of a set of phenomenological parameters, including cell speed and persistence time, which can be used to evaluate the effect of isotropic variations in the extracellular environment on the motility of human tissue cells. Using time-lapse videomicroscopy and semi-automated image analysis, we tracked the paths traveled by slow-moving, isolated human vascular smooth muscle cells over 48 hours on surfaces of petri dishes coated with 10 μg/mL of the adhesive extracellular matrix proteins type IV collagen, fibronectin or laminin. By applying a persistent random walk model to experimental data for mean-squared displacement as a function of time for these cells, we rigorously distinguished individual cells with different motile characteristics not obvious based on qualitative comparisons between the structures of individual cell paths. We also positively identified the presence of immotile cells. Based on the behavior of 34 to 77 cells on each substrate, we found mean cell speeds and persistence times on the order of 10 micron/h and 3 hours, respectively, on all three ECM substrates, while the fraction of motile cells varied from 65% on laminin to 78% on collagen. On all three surfaces experimental number distributions of speed and persistence time could be described by normal and exponential waiting time distributions, respectively. Our approach provides a framework for addressing questions concerning the mechanistic relationship between cellular and environmental properties and cell motility.

    Notes: Silicon dioxide films (500-5,000 Å-thick) were deposited on silicon wafers and polyimide composite surfaces by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The chemical reaction takes place on the surface and depends on substrate conditions and process parameters. In the present study, SiO2 films were deposited from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) in the 275-400°C temperature range under the influence of a radio frequency discharge (13.56 MHz). The properties of the deposited films, such as refractive index, density, stoichiometry, and adhesion, were obtained. The deposition characteristics of the films were studied as a function of process parameters including temperature, pressure, and RF power level. Finally these TEOS-SiO2 films were found to be effective in the protection of polyimide-based composites for higher-temperature (350-400°C) applications.

    Notes: The adsorption isotherms of O2, N2, CH4, CO2, SO2, and NO on five pillared clays (Zr, Al, Cr, Fe, and Ti-PILCs) are measured. The equilibrium selectivity of CH4/N2 on Al-PILC is greater than 5.0, which exceeds all known sorbents by a large margin. In addition, high SO2/CO2 equilibrium selectivities are observed on these pillared clays. The sorption characteristics of these pillared clays (PILCs) exhibit characteristic trends that are better understood with the aid of the potential energy profiles. A new semi-empirical approach is presented for the calculations of the potential energy profiles of PILCs. This approach requires the adsorption isotherms and an isotherm equation that accounts for the structural heterogeneity of the adsorbents. A comparison of the energy profiles obtained using the semi-empirical approach with the corresponding results obtained via the Kirkwood-Muller formalism, where only dispersion forces are taken into account, provides a measure of the importance of the electrostatic forces in the sorption characteristics of these PILCs. Sizable differences are observed for the potential energy profiles, indicating that the electrostatic forces are not negligible, and can significantly enhance the adsorption potential, resulting in large increases in the amounts adsorbed on these PILCs.

    Notes: A mathematical model for transport, reaction and structure evolution in gas-solid reactions with solid product is used to analyze a set of experimental data for the sulfation of calcines derived from three stones of high (〉95%) calcium carbonate content. The analysis of the experimental data places emphasis on the formation of inaccessible pore space and its effects on the efficiency of calcined limestones as sorbents for SO2 removal. Our results show that the ultimate capacity of calcined limestones for SO2 uptake is influenced strongly by the formation of inaccessible pore space, which in turn is determined by their pore-size distribution and the connectivity (degree of interaction) of the pores. For the three specimens used in our study, the ultimate conversion (measured experimentally) increased and the inaccessible pore space formed during pore closure (predicted by the mathematical model) decreased with decreasing grain size in the rock precursors, indicating that the morphological texture of the precursors plays a major role in determining the topological features of the pore structure of the resulting calcines.

    Notes: A huge amount of data is collected by computer monitoring systems in the chemical process industry. Such tools as principal component analysis and partial least squares have been shown to be very effective in compressing this large volume of noisy correlated data into a subspace of much lower dimension than the original data set. Because most of what is eliminated is the collinearity of the original variables and the noise, the bulk of the information contained in the original data set is retained. The resulting low dimensional representation of the data set has been shown to be of great utility for process analysis and monitoring, as well as in selecting variables for control. These types of models can also be used directly in control system design. One way of approaching this is to use the loading matrices as compensators on the plant. Some advantages of using this approach as part of the overall control system design include automatic decoupling and efficient loop pairing, as well as natural handling of nonsquare systems and poorly conditioned systems.

    Notes: Wrong-way behavior refers to a large transient temperature increase caused by a sudden reduction in the feed temperature or increase in the feed rate to a packed-bed reactor operating at an intermediate or high level of conversion. This dynamic temperature rise may be affected by reactant adsorption on the inert catalyst support. The wrong-way behavior usually leads to formation of a downstream-moving temperature front. In such cases, reactant adsorption tends to moderate and decrease the maximal transient temperature of these fronts. However, when the wrong-way behavior generates an upstream-moving temperature front, reactant adsorption may substantially increase the temperature rise over that attained in its absence and ignite the reactor. Reactant adsorption may also lead to surprising dynamic effects upon changes in feed velocity.

    Notes: One of the limitations of today's knowledge-based (KB) systems for diagnostics and supervision is a lack of adequate temporal reasoning mechanisms. Most of these systems are designed primarily to operate with the current values of the process variables and, sometimes, with their derivatives. Such simple capabilities, however, are not always sufficient to identify some complex dynamic phenomena, which in many cases leave their own unique “stamp” on the process behavior, expressed in the form of characteristic temporal shapes of the related variables. To detect and diagnose adequately the events of interest, the KB system should be able to reason about the temporal shapes of the process variables. Although during manual supervision process operators rely heavily on such characteristic shapes as reliable symptoms of underlying phenomena, their exploitation has not been considered seriously by the designers of KB control systems. We propose a generic methodology for qualitative analysis of the temporal shapes of continuous process variables designed to be embedded into a real-time KB environment. It is applicable to bioprocesses, as well as to other complex dynamic systems.

    Notes: The falling liquid film has become a popular means of transferring heat and mass from a vapor to a binary liquid film; applications include heat pump systems, desalination, and gas-liquid contactors. In the heat pump application, in particular, the length of the liquid film is a crucial factor because of size and weight limitations. Consequently, it is desirable to be able to predict the amount of mass absorbed in a given length of tube. In this work the absorption of water vapor into a Lithium-Bromide Water mixture is considered. It is shown that mass transfer takes place in a thin layer of fluid near the liquid-vapor interface which is indicative of a very high level of liquid-side mass-transfer resistance. Closed form solutions for the velocity field may be used to derive a simple closed form solution for the mass fraction. For very thin films the temperature distribution may be obtained analytically in Laplace transform space; however, due to the complexity of the solution, numerical techniques are employed to obtain quantitative results. For thicker films a closed form solution for the temperature may be obtained as well. The principal objective of this work is to develop a design procedure not requiring a significant amount of numerical work whereby the absorption capacity of a given tube may be predicted as a function of the governing geometrical and physical parameters. The analytical/numerical results are presented for parameters corresponding to those of recent experiments and the agreement between theory and experiment is good.

    Notes: The experimental validation of on-line estimation of multiple specific growth rates for the bakers' yeast fed-batch process is presented. Pole placement based parameter estimation combined with an asymptotic biomass observer constitute the basic algorithm. The full process model being ill-conditioned for estimation using the available measured state variables, the use of two partial models related to two different states of the process is suggested. An alternating procedure between two sets of estimation algorithms designed from the partial models is proposed. The performance of the alternating procedure is validated both with simulated and experimental data. The accuracy of the estimates of the three specific growth rates involved in this process is verified according to two criteria based on the respiratory quotient and on the evaluation of the ethanol production/consumption rate.

    Notes: Continuous separation of three carbohydrate mixtures [fructose-dextran (M. W. ≈ 9,400), raffinose-dextran (M. W. ≈ 6,000), and fructose-raffinose] has been carried out using a simulated countercurrent process with silica gel as the sorbent and deionized water as the eluent. Experiments were conducted using the commercial four-section arrangement and a modified three-section flow scheme which does not recycle part of the eluent for reuse. Data for the four-section flow scheme reflect a much higher product concentration in the raffinate and a substantially lower rate of fresh eluent consumption than for the three-section scheme. It is concluded that when both the extract and raffinate products are desired, the four-section scheme should be used for the separation of a mixture with a small separation factor which usually requires a large quantity of eluent to achieve an efficient separation. The behavior of the simulated countercurrent process was simulated theoretically by representing the process in terms of an equivalent true countercurrent system. A good fit to the experimental data was obtained when the process was configured in the four-section mode. However, the same theoretical approach failed to provide a good representation of the behavior of the three-section scheme in one respect: predicted concentrations of the raffinate product were about two times higher than experimental values. The discrepancy may be attributed to the periodic switching of fluid inlet and outlet points in the operation of the three-section simulated countercurrent unit.

    Notes: Unsteady axial mixing due to addition of a batch of sodium chloride solution at the top of a water-filled tube (2.63 cm i.d.) has been studied by measuring the developing concentration profile and the advancing front with dye added to the brine. Data have also been obtained with added baffle plates, with the use of a viscous aqueous solution, and in smaller diameter (1.48, 1.91 cm) tubes. Results can be approximately correlated by means of a model based on unsteady one-dimensional turbulent dispersion. Laminar flow affects the behavior of the advancing front at which the salt concentration is lowest.

    Notes: The gas holdup in different arrays of expanded metal sheets was determined by the conductimetric method.A model had to be developed for analyzing the conductimetric behavior of the cell in the presence of the metallic sheets. The validity of this model has been verified with single phase flow. The application to two-phase flow allowed the obtaining of information on gas accumulation within stacked expanded metal sheets, showing a strong influence of the geometry of the array. Depending on the orientation of the stacked sheets and of the large dimension of the expanded metal, the gas holdup within the packing will be equal or larger than in an empty bubble column.

    Notes: A semi-empirical model of the radial segregation of solids in upward flow of dilute gas-particle suspensions in riser systems is presented on the basis of a reduced form of the fundamental two-phase flow governing equations and experimental evidence concerning the solids concentration at the wall. The following simple expression for the radial solids concentration profile is obtained: \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \frac{{1 - {\rm \varepsilon }}}{{{\rm 1} - {\rm \varepsilon }}} = 2\left( {\frac{r}{R}} \right)^2 $$\end{document} and is in agreement with experimental data over a wide range of operating conditions: superficial gas velocity from 1.4 to 15.3 m/s, riser diameter from 0.032 to 0.40 m, imposed solids flux from 6.60 to 207 kg/m2·s, mean particle size from 32 to 120 μm and particle density from 1,000 to 3,500 kg/m3.The model confirms the existence of the core-annulus flow structure in gas-particle suspensions reported in riser reactors, circulating fluidized beds, and the freeboard of bubbling fluidized beds.

    Notes: The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis reaction was conducted in a supercritical fluid medium using a fixed-bed reactor. Tailor-made catalyst supports which had sharp pore diameter distributions were prepared by the pH swing method. The relationships between the catalyst pore structure and the catalytic activity or the product distribution were studied. The influence of the catalyst pore size on the mass transfer of reactants and products was also characterized. The catalyst pore size affected not only catalytic activity but also product selectivity. The diffusion of reactants inside the catalyst pellets in the supercritical fluid media was simulated and the effects of catalyst pore size and catalyst particle size on catalytic performances were consistent with simulation results.

    Notes: Uniform temperature distributions in cracking furnaces favor the run length of the production cycle of the furnace and the tube metal life. The coupled simulation of the furnace and the reactor tubes by means of the zone method is extended to permit the calculation of circumferential nonuniformities under reaction conditions. Circumferential tube skin temperatures were found to vary over 50°C and more, due to “shadow effects.” As a result, nonuniform coking rates and coke layers are obtained. The model and computational scheme presented here can be used as a guide for plant operators and as a tool for designing.

    Notes: This work concerns the synthesis of discrete-time nonlinear controllers for nonlinear processes that make the closed-loop system linear in an input/output sense. The synthesis of state feedback controllers is studied first, followed by the synthesis of dynamic output feedback controllers. Both problems are solved within the globally linearizing control (GLC) framework. Precise theoretical connections between the derived controllers and model algorithmic control (MAC) are established. The theory is illustrated by a chemical reactor example.

    Notes: A stochastic model is proposed for the description of the hydrodynamics in trickle flow columns. The gas-liquid flow is assumed to be controlled by local packing properties which are represented by random variables. The first (microscopic) level of description corresponds to the smallest volume whose averaged geometrical properties are representative of the whole packing. The hydrodynamics at this level is described by Ergun equations. The second level describes the liquid flow maldistribution induced by the partial wetting of the solid. This is the macroscopic level where the hydrodynamics is described by a probability distribution. This approach is used to develop correlations for predicting the wetting efficiency, the dynamic liquid holdup, and the pressure drop. These correlations give very good results when compared to experimental data over a wide range of operating conditions. In addition, we propose to describe the hysteretic behavior of trickle beds by a modification of the loquid flow texture caused by different values of the apparent solid wettability.

    Notes: This article presents a methodology for the continuous detection and definition of process performance improvement opportunities, especially as these pertain to the quality of operations (such as product quality). The problem is first reduced to an essentially pattern recognition formulation, for which an integrated and adaptive methodology combining analogical reasoning and symbolic induction is developed. The resulting classification of past records of data is used to support the construction of a decision support system for the generation/selection of operating suggestions leadin to performance improvements. The overall approach complements the usual set of statistical tools, commonly employed to address quality management problems. The basic methodology is also extended to handle fuzzy class definitions and function learning formulations. Case studies, covering both simulated and real industrial situations, illustrate the concepts and their practical utility.

    Notes: A magnetic method to measure the time and spatial average temperature of supported nickel catalysts in fluidized beds is detailed. It is an extension of a magnetic method developed in this laboratory to study fixed beds. The RMS output voltage of an AC permeameter is used to follow changes in the magnetic moment, hence temperature, of the catalyst upon starting or stopping ethane hydrogenolysis. The theory of the thermometry in fluidized beds is detailed and the observed RMS output voltage vs. time traces for typical experiments are explained. Simulations indicate that signals generated by the moving particles are largely averaged out, since the direction of the magnetic moment of each catalyst particle follows the applied field and is independent of movement. Filtering in the frequency domain can be used to further reduce the effects of particle movement. Calibrations needed to convert AC permeameter output voltage changes to changes in sample temperature during experiments on two distinctly different fluidized beds are the same as for the respective fixed beds. Depending somewhat on the sample moment, the average solid temperature can be determined with a repeatability of a few tenths of a degree.

    Notes: The synthesis, properties and X-ray single crystal structure analysis of the intramolecularly adduct-stabilised organogallium bisazide (N3)2Ga[(CH2)3NMe2] (1), the mono azide (N3)Ga[(CH2)3NMe2]2 (2) and the trialkylamine adducts of triazidogallium of the type (N3)3Ga(NR3) (3a-d; R = alkyl) are reported. An unusual isomer 1b of compound 1 is described, which was obtained by slow cooling of the analytically pure neat liquid compound 1 to 0 °C. The new and unusual structure 1b can be regarded as a weak associate of dimers linked together by head-to-tail azide bridges. In contrast, compounds 2 and 3a-b (R = CH3, C2H5) are monomeric in the solid state. The suitability of the volatile compounds 1 and 2 as single source precursors to grow GaN thin films by chemical vapour deposition is compared, showing that preferentially oriented crystalline films can be obtained from compound 2 on sapphire substrates at 600-700 °C in vacuo (0.1 Pa). However the films have a grey rather than a transparent appearance, which is presumably due to N-deficiency owing to the lower N-content of the single molecule precursor 2 relative to 1.

    Notes: Epoxidation of olefins by TiIV peroxo and hydroperoxo (alkylperoxo) complexes was investigated using a hybrid DFT method (B3LYP). Reaction energies and activation barriers for direct oxygen transfer to ethylene as a model olefin were computed for various model complexes to compare the epoxidation activity of Ti(η2-O2) and TiOOR (R = H, CH3) moieties. The activity of complexes with a Ti(O2) peroxo group is shown to be essentially quenched when the coordination sphere of the complex is saturated by strongly basic (σ-donor) ligands. In contrast, the activity of a TiOOH functional group depends only weakly on the saturation of the coordination sphere of the Ti center. Substitution of methyl for hydrogen in a TiOOH group is found to slightly increase the activation barrier of epoxidation. The computational results give preference to reaction paths that involve TiOOR species. The factors governing the activity of Ti(O2) and TiOOR groups, in particular the effects of donor ligands, are discussed on the basis of a molecular orbital analysis.

    Notes: The course of the replacement of ethanol by water molecules in the VOPO4·2C2H5OH intercalate, and of water by ethanol in VOPO4·2H2O has been studied by X-ray diffraction and infrared and Raman spectroscopy. Formation of mixed phase VOPO4·C2H5OH·H2O was not observed. The shape of the kinetics curves indicates a transition of at least one reaction zone through the crystal. A delay in formation of the product in comparison with the decrease in the amount of starting material can be explained by the existence of non-diffracting advancing phase boundary. In a VOPO4/ethanol/water system, VOPO4·2C2H5OH is formed as the only product when the system contained more than 96 vol% of ethanol, whereas in the system with less than 94 vol% of ethanol only VOPO4·2H2O is present.

    Notes: The dilithium salts of N-methyl-N′,N′′-bis(diisopropyl)- and -(trimethylsilyl)-diethylenetriamine 1a,b react with SnCl2 affording the corresponding stannylenes 2a,b in 60 and 80% yield, respectively. Compound 1b also reacts with BiCl3 to give the bismuth chloride 5 (90% yield). Derivatives 2b and 5 have a symmetrical bicyclic structure and are monomeric both in solution and in the solid state. When 2b is treated with BiCl3 or PCl3, an oxidation reaction leads to the hypercoordinated tin(IV) dichloride 3 (58% yield), or a transmetallation gives rise to the oniophosphane 4 (95% yield), respectively. Transmetalation reactions also occurred when 5 was treated with AlCl3, GaCl3 or SnCl2 affording the corresponding aluminum chloride 6 (81% yield), gallium chloride 7 (38% yield) or tin dichloride 3 (38% yield). The observed reactivity for 2 and 5 is compared to that reported for Veith's stannylene or bismuth chloride.

The different efficiencies observed have been rationalized on the basis of an analytical expression relating the incident photon-to-current conversion efficiency (IPCE) to the kinetic parameters of the relevant electron transfer processes involved in the solar cell.

    Notes: The new compounds K4Nb2S10O and Rb4Nb2S10O have been synthesized by the reaction of potassium or rubidium alkaline polychalcogenides with NbO2, Nb2O5, or mixtures of Nb and NbO. Their structures consist of discrete [Nb2Q11]4- anions (Q = O, S) built up of two face-sharing pentagonal bipyramids, which are connected via the alkali metal cations.

    Notes: By treating [(CO)3Re(Hpz)2(pz)] (Hpz = pyrazole) with [Cu(CH3CN)4]BF4, AgNO3, or [Au(tht)Cl] (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) in acetonitrile in the presence of Et3N, the corresponding trinuclear complexes {(CO)3Re(pz)3[M(CH3CN)]2} (1a-c) have been obtained. Treatment of complexes 1a-c with cyclohexyl isocyanide (c-C6H11NC) afforded the derivatives {(CO)3Re(pz)3[M(c-C6H11NC)]2} (2a-c). Complexes 2a-c have been characterized in solution by 1H-NMR spectroscopy and in the solid state by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

    Notes: The reactions of nitrido(tetra-tert-butylphthalocyaninato)rhenium (1) with boron tribromide leading to (tBu4Pc)ReNBBr3 (4) and with acetone to give the imido complex (tBu4Pc)Re[NC(CH3)2CH2C(O)CH3]OH (2b) and its μ-oxo dimer 3 are reported. Starting from the corresponding 4,5-di-n-alkylphthalonitriles and ammonium perrhenate four soluble nitrido(octa-n-alkylphthalocyaninato)rhenium complexes 5-8 were synthesized. Nitrido(octa-n-pentylphthalocyaninato)rhenium (6) was treated with boron tribromide to afford [(C5H11)8Pc]ReNBBr3 (9).

    Notes: All three dinuclear complexes [Pd2(donp)2(bpy)2] (1) (H2donp = 1,8-naphthyridin-2,7-dione), [Pd2(H2nonp)2(bpy)2](ClO4)2 (2), and [Pt2(H2nonp)2(bpy)2](PF6)2 (3) (H3nonp = 7-amino-1,8-naphthyridin-2-one) exhibit the μ-1ĸN1:2ĸN8 bridging mode for their head/tail orientated naphthyridine ligands. Whereas 1 and 3 may be prepared by direct reaction of the dinucleating ligand with [MCl2(bpy)], formation of competing tripalladium(II) complexes must be avoided for 2 by employment of the precursor H2acnonp (7-acetamido-1,8-naphthyridin-2-one), which affords [H2nonp]- on cleavage of its original acetyl group. A mixture of the head/tail (4a) and head/head (4b) isomers of [Pd3(Hnonp)2(bpy)3](ClO4)2 is obtained when H3nonp is treated with [PdCl2(bpy)] and LiOH at room temperature for 2 d, followed by precipitation with LiClO4. Contrastingly exclusive formation of 4a is observed upon refluxing this reaction mixture for 3 d in aqueous solution. The [Hnonp]2- ligands exhibit a μ3-1ĸN1:2ĸN8:3ĸN7 bridging mode that leads to short Pd···Pd interactions of 2.781(2) and 2.775(2) Å. Similar metal-metal distances of 2.771(3) and 2.816(3) Å are observed in head/head-[Pt3(acnonp)(Hnonp)(bpy)3]Cl2 (5). An in situ 2e--oxidation (Ag+/Ag) of the [Pt3]6+ core in triplatinum(II) species such as 5 formed by the reaction of [PtCl2(bpy)] with H2acnonp allows the isolation of diamagnetic dark-brown head/head-[Pt3(Hnonp)2(NO3)(bpy)3](ClO4)2(NO3) (6) with an average oxidation state of Pt (2.67+). The Pt-Pt distances of 2.723(2) and 2.670(2) Å are markedly shorter than in 5.

    Notes: New heteroleptic indium compounds have been synthesized starting from indium(III) halides and hexamethyldisilazyllithium to form MeXInN(SiMe3)2 [X = Cl (1), Br (2)], and then subsequent alcoholysis to afford the molecules [ClMeIn(OtBu)]2 (3), [BrMeIn(OtBu)]2 (4), {ClMeIn[O(C6H4)OMe]}2 (5), {[(SiMe3)2N]MeIn(OtBu)}2 (6) and [MeIn(OtBu)2]2 (7). The molecular structures of molecules 3-7 have been obtained by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The structures of the compounds 3-7 are almost identical: 3-5 crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system with two dimeric molecules per unit cell in the space group P21/c, 6 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with four molecules per unit cell, and compound 7 crystallizes in the triclinic crystal system with one dimeric molecule per unit cell in the space group P-1. The central centrosymmetric In2O2 ring, common to all the compounds, is achieved by two bridging oxygen atoms. Due to the additional coordination by an oxygen atom of the methoxy group, the coordination number of the metal center rises from 4 to “4+1” if the OtBu ligand (compounds 3, 4, 6, and 7) is exchanged for a methoxyphenol ligand (compound 5). In addition to the In2O2 ring the compound 5 possesses two annealed five-membered InO2C2 rings. The common indium methyl group of all compounds, which is transfered by an original route from the silicon to the indium atom, is used to compare structural and spectroscopic properties of the molecules, as there is a correlation between the In-C bond length and the chemical shift of the methyl group which depends on the ligand system used.

    Notes: The reaction of perfluoroaryllithium RC6F4Li, where R = F or 4-CF3C6F4O, respectively, with selenium gives the known diselanes (RC6F4Se)2 (1a, 1b). Redox reactions of 1 with hydrogen peroxide result in the formation of the seleninic acids RC6F4SeOOH which crystallize as hydrates (2a, 2b); with mercury give the bis(arylseleno)mercuries (RC6F4Se)2Hg (3a, 3b); with sulfuryl chloride or bromine give the selenenyl chlorides (4a, 4b) or selenenyl bromides (5a, 5b). Selenenyl chlorides (4a, 4b) react with a variety of trimethylsilyl reagents Me3SiX (X = Br, CN, NMe2, NEt2) to form 5a, 5b; selenocyanates RC6F4SeCN (6a, 6b); selenenyl amides RC6F4SeNMe2 (7a, 7b) and RC6F4SeNEt2 (8a, 8b). A new synthetic route to diorgano selanes is developed by reaction of 4a, 4b with perfluoroaryllithium to give the symmetric (RC6F4)2Se (9a, 9b). All derivatives are thoroughly characterized and in addition the molecular structures of 2a, 6a, and 9a are established by X-ray crystallography.

    Notes: The bis[4-(n-CmH2m+1O)-5-(p-C14H29C6H4N=N)]-substituted N,N′-salicylidenediamines H2[LN(m,14)] (N = 1: 1,2-diaminoethane; N = 2: 1,3-diaminopropane; N = 3: 1,3-diamino-2,2-dimethylpropane; m = 6 or 18) have been synthesized. Both the N = 2 and 3 series of compounds display a smectic C (SmC) mesophase, with clearing points well below 100 °C. By treating the H2[LN(m,14)] ligands with an NiII salt, liquid crystalline mononuclear complexes with “unconventional” (lateral-tailed) molecular shape form. These Ni[LN(m,14)] complexes, showing nematic and smectic disordered phases, are stable over a quite large temperature range and have been characterized by different spectroscopic techniques. The newly synthesized mesogens exhibit lower transition temperatures and higher thermal stability than homologous complexes Ni[LN(14)] with a “conventional” rod-like molecular geometry.

    Notes: Oxidation of 4-(1-hydroxy-1-phenylethyl)benzoic acid HPEBA with a water-soluble metalloporphyrin as catalyst and KHSO5 as oxygen atom donor gives the major products, acetophenone AC and acetylbenzoic acid ABA, by a Caliph-CAr bond cleavage, but a minor product, benzoyloxybenzoic acid BOBA, requires the insertion of an oxygen atom to form the ester. This compound becomes the main oxidation product on increasing the amount of acetonitrile in the reaction medium, and its formation is oxygen-dependent. The conversion is drastically lowered by using D2O instead of H2O, suggesting that an alkoxyl radical is formed in the rate-determining step. Labeling experiments using 18O2 or H218O under different reaction conditions show that the carbonyl oxygen atoms of AC and ABA originate either from substrate, water or dioxygen. However, the carbonyl oxygen atom in the ester group of BOBA originates from dioxygen while the other oxygen atom of the ester remains unlabeled. These results can be explained by an O-neophyl rearrangement of the initial alkoxyl radical to afford a carbon-based radical which then reacts with dioxygen or MnIV-OH/water. In a competitive reaction pathway, direct β-scission of the alkoxyl radical leads to unlabeled products. The oxidation of other tertiary diaryl alcohols is also discussed.

    Notes: ESI mass spectrometry and 51V-NMR spectroscopy have been used to study the reactions occurring between bisperoxo vanadates and a number of histidine and histidine-like ligands, in aqueous alcoholic solutions. Coordination of one and two molecules of ligand is observed with all the compounds investigated affording [VO5L]- and [VO52L]-, respectively. Characterization of these species has been achieved by MSn experiments, which have allowed specific fragmentations of the peroxidic moiety to be distinguished. In particular, with [VO52L]-, two distinct modes of decomposition were observed, depending on the presence in the ligand of a free carboxylic function. - Possible biochemical implications related to vanadium haloperoxidase enzymes are discussed.

    Notes: The 1,1,3-tris(diisopropylamino)diphosphirenium salt 1 reacts with lithium aluminium hydride leading to the P-hydrogeno-C-phosphinophosphaalkenes 2, which on treatment with a catalytic amount of BF3·OEt2 afford the 1,3-bis(diisopropylamino)-1H-diphosphirene 3. The corresponding η1-coordinated 1H-diphosphirene 6 can be prepared by treatment of 2 or 3 with one equivalent of [W(CO)5(thf)]. Alternatively, the diphosphirenium salt 1 reacts with an excess of [W(CO)5(thf)], affording the corresponding η1-coordinated diphosphirenium salt complex 4, which is converted into the P-hydrogenophosphaalkene complex 5 with lithium aluminium hydride. The dinuclear tungsten complexes 7 and 8 are obtained by treatment of the free 1H-diphosphirene 3 with two equivalents of [W(CO)5(thf)] or one equivalent of [W(CO)4(thf)2], respectively. Compound 6 reacts with two equivalents of hydrogen chloride, giving the 1-chloro-3-diisopropylamino-1H-diphosphirene 9, which can be subsequently converted into the 1-diisopropylamino-, 1-azido, or 1-phenyl-3-diisopropylamino-1H-diphosphirenes 6, 10 and 11 by nucleophilic substitution with diisopropylamine, azidotrimethylsilane or sodium tetraphenylborate, respectively. The [η2-(3-diisopropylaminodiphosphirenylium salt)·W(CO)5] complexes 12a-c can be prepared by reaction of 9 with silver trifluoromethanesulfonate, aluminium or gallium trichloride or, alternatively, by treatment of 6 with two equivalents of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. Reaction of 12a with diisopropylamine, water, bis(triphenylphosphoranylidene)ammonium chloride or tetrabutylammonium fluoride gives the corresponding 1H-diphosphirene complexes 6, 13, 9, or 14, respectively. Compound 12a also reacts with one or two equivalents of [W(CO)5(thf)], leading to the di- and tri-nuclear complexes 15and 16, respectively.

    Notes: The model developed predicts a priori potential errors associated with the energy trace recorded by an isoperibol differential power scanning calorimeter in the measurement of heat of adsorption of H2 on Pt and Pd catalysts. The uptake of H2 by the catalyst sample was approximated by a diffusion-limited quasi-steady-state moving boundary model. This approximation is valid only if the parameter [(adsorption capacity of cat. sample)/(inlet conc. of H2)] is extremely large (∼ 24). The effect of flow rate, amount of H2 adsorbed, sink temperature, and the thermal conductivity of the adsorbate mixture was examined. Model predictions indicate that the error in the energy trace recorded by the DSC is appreciable: if a large difference exists between the thermal conductivity of the inert carrier, Ar (K = 0.017 J/m·K·s), and the adsorbate, H2 (k = 0.174 J/m·K·s); if the heat sink temperature is much lower (∼ 90 K) than the measurement temperature. However, these errors can be eliminated by matching the thermal conductivity of the inert carrier and adsorbate, such as He (k = 0.143 J/m·K·s) and H2 (k = 0.174 J/m·K·s). The results agree well with the experimental observations of Vannice et al. (1987) on high-purity Pt and Pd powder and supported Pt catalysts, if the H2 uptake by the catalyst sample in the calorimeter is small (≤2 μmol).

    Notes: Neutron transmission imaging is a technique ideally suited for imaging various flow phenomena in consolidated porous media because the porous matrix is virtually transparent to thermal neutrons. Hydrogen-containing fluids, however, provide a contrast in the image due to their large thermal neutron cross-sections. This technique has uncovered new phenomena in the study of dissolution and precipitation in porous media. Neutron images of acid-etched porous patterns show that the degree of branching, and the tortuosity of the etched patterns depend on competing effects of acid flow rate, dissolution rate and precipitation rate of the reaction products. The fine structure of etched pathways show that they can propagate against the direction of flow, a phenomenon not previously observed. In a second study, realtime neutron transmission imaging was used to visualize miscible tracer dispersion. It was shown how quantitative information such as the in-situ spatial distributions of the tracer concentrations can be obtained with this technique.
