Trimethyllactamide (open access)

Trimethyllactamide

Technical report. From "3. Methods of Preparation" : "Pivadehyde cyanohydrin can be prepared by the reaction of pivadehyde with anhydrous HCN2 or by the sodium bisulfite process. Trimethyllactamide can be prepared by hydrolysis of pivaldehyde cyanohydrin with cold concentrated sulfuric acid. The procedure described here differs in the scale of preparation an in the use of cold fusing hydrochloric acid for hydrolizing the cyanohydrin."

Spectrophotometric Determination of Perchlorate (open access)

Spectrophotometric Determination of Perchlorate

Technical report. Form Abstract : "Perchlorate is extracted from aqueous solution by n-butyronitrile as ferrous 1,10-phenanthroline perchlorate. The amount of perchlorate is calculated from spectrophotometric measurement of the absorbance of the extract. Moderate to large amounts of chloride, sulfate, or nitrate cause little or no interference. Chlorate is slightly extracted but the interference can be corrected."

Pressure-Volume-Temperature Measurements on Solids (open access)

Pressure-Volume-Temperature Measurements on Solids

From abstract: "The results of recent measurements on the equations of state of sodium and xenon are discussed. The experimental data for each of these are analyzed to show that the isothermal compressibility is solely a function of volume within experimental accuracy. The basic differences between the low temperature PV relationships for sodium and xenon are shown to be easily understandable in terms of the elementary theories of these substances. The range of experimental pressures (to 20 kbars) and temperatures (20°K to the triple point) is sufficiently great so as to produce significant changes in the lattice thermal properties in each case. These changes are indicated through the use of zero pressure heat capacity data in combination with the equation of state data to calculate the volume and temperature dependence of the Debye Θ. The result is quite spectacular for xenon, where a pressure of 20 kbars roughly doubles ΘD."

Molecular Spectra and Structure of the Compound, AlH3-2N(CH3)3

This technical report discusses an infrared study of AlH3-2N(CH3)3 while the compound was in its gas phase. This investigation was then extended to include the Raman spectrum observed in liquid trimethylamine.

Electron Requirements of Bonds in Metal Borides (open access)

Electron Requirements of Bonds in Metal Borides

From abstract: "Electrical measurements have been made on CaB6, SrB6, BaB6, YB2, YB4, YB6, and YB12 for the purpose of testing models of the electronic structure of the boron atoms in the four boride types represented. The compounds CaB6, SrB6, and BaB6 were found to be semiconductors. The Hall coefficients of YB4 was also measured, but could not be interpreted because the free electron theory does not provide a theoretical value for comparison with experiment. The results are in agreement with the models proposed."

Discussion of Quadrupole Precession (open access)

Discussion of Quadrupole Precession

From abstract: "In this paper the motion of a nucleus with an intrinsic quadrupole moment in an external electrostatic field gradient is discussed from a classical point of view. It is shown that in the classical approximation the angular momentum may precess about the direction of strongest field gradient or about the direction of intermediate field gradient, but not about the direction of weakest field gradient. The classical precession frequencies are found to be related to the quantum mechanical dipole transition frequencies."

Effect of Oxygen on Mechanical Properties of Niobium (open access)

Effect of Oxygen on Mechanical Properties of Niobium

From abstract: "The effects of oxygen on some mechanical properties of niobium were studied over the composition range of 20 ppm to 2400 ppm oxygen. The tensile properties of samples of these compositions were studied over the temperature range from room temperature to 500°C. Hardness values were obtained at room temperature only. The following observations and conclusions were made during these studies: 1. Oxygen additions to high purity niobium increase both the yield and tensile strengths of niobium at all temperatures investigated. As the temperature is increased above 250°C the effect of the first 200 ppm of oxygen has more influence than further additions on these strengths of niobium. 2. Strain aging behavior is observed. The peaks in the tensile strength versus temperature curves can be predicted with reliability by the relationship proposed by Cottrell, 3. A mechanism is proposed which, along with Cottrell's segregated atmosphere mechanism, can account for the serrated stress-strain curves obtained. This mechanism offers an explanation of the occurrence of serrations at room temperature, and the mechanism is composition dependent."

Mass Spectrometric Evidence for the Pyridoxal-Leucine Reaction Mechanism

From Abstract : "The mass spectrum of leucine-dn, prepared by the reaction of pyridoxal with excess leucine in D2O medium, has been established using the crucible source techniques. ... The reaction can be used for the selective α, β-deuteration of amino acids other than leucine.

Reinvestigation of the CC Stretching and CH3 Rocking Assignments In Isopropyl and tert-Butyl Halides

From report: "In a series of paper (1-3) Sheppard has analyzed the vibrational spectra of simple alkyl halides. During the course of an investigation of the spectra of similar alkyl thiocyanates certain anomalies appeared in the assignments of the CC stretching and methyl rocking vibrations in isopropyl and tert.-butyl halides."

Cation Exchange in Acetone-Water-Hydrochloric Acid (open access)

Cation Exchange in Acetone-Water-Hydrochloric Acid

Abstract: Distribution coefficients have been measured for the partition of metal ions between cation exchange resin and acetone-water-hydrochloric acid solutions. the differences in distribution coefficients of metal ions are greater in acetone-water media than in aqueous media of the same hydrochloric acid concentration. Using distribution coefficient data, conditions for column separations of mixtures can be selected. Column separations of metal ion mixtures can be effected by eluting with acetone-water-hydrochloric acid solutions of different compositions. Successful separations of a number of mixtures are reported.
