Effect Of Solvent On Properties Of The Liquid Metal Surface, J. P. Badiali, M. I. Rosinberg, Jerry Goodisman Jan 1981

Effect Of Solvent On Properties Of The Liquid Metal Surface, J. P. Badiali, M. I. Rosinberg, Jerry Goodisman

Chemistry - All Scholarship

We calculate the difference in the surface potentials between the free surface of a liquid metal and the same metal in an ideally polarizable interface at the point of zero charge. This difference, δXm, is due to the deformation of the electronic cloud of the metal by the solvent molecules. The simple model used for the free (metal-metal vapor) surface yields qualitatively correct work functions for a number of metals (Hg, Cd, In, Zn, Pb, Ga, A1). Two simple ways to model the metal-solvent interaction are proposed and calculations of δXm made for each. One, the dielectric film model, considers …


A Matrix Isolation Study Of The Reactions Of Oxygen(Singlet-D) With The Chlorofluoromethanes Fluorotrichloromethane, Dichlorodifluoromethane And Chlorotrifluoromethane, Richard Thomason Burke Jan 1981

A Matrix Isolation Study Of The Reactions Of Oxygen(Singlet-D) With The Chlorofluoromethanes Fluorotrichloromethane, Dichlorodifluoromethane And Chlorotrifluoromethane, Richard Thomason Burke

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

We have studied the reactions of O(1D) with CC13F, CC12F2 and CC1F3 in CO2, SF6 and N2O matrices, and in neat mixtures. Photolysis of cryogenic mixtures of ozone and the chlorofluoromethanes in various matrix hosts resulted in production of O(1D) which migrated through the matrix to react with the Freon molecules. Products were detected by infrared spectroscopy of the matrix deposits, with assignments confirmed by comparison of 16O and 18O absorption bands with literature values. Evidence for oxygen atom insertion into a C-C1 …


Method For Direct Preparation For 1,2,4-Triazole From Hydrazine And Formamide, Harris E. Petree, Joseph R. Pociask, John T. Gupton Jan 1981

Method For Direct Preparation For 1,2,4-Triazole From Hydrazine And Formamide, Harris E. Petree, Joseph R. Pociask, John T. Gupton

Chemistry Faculty Publications

Process for the preparation of 1,2,4-triazole comprises contacting hydrazine or its aqueous solutions with at least about 2.5 moles of formamide at a temperature of 140° to 210° C. and then recovering the resultant 1,2,4- triazole in yields of 92-98% with 94-98% purity. The formamide is maintained in an excess over about the 2.5 molar amount consumed in the reaction with the hydrazine. Recovery steps for isolating the 1,2,4-triazole are disclosed.
