Various N-substituted phenylacetAMides were
alkylated using different alkylating agents under neutral and basic conditions.
Reactions were performed at different reaction temperatures and in various
solvents. Also, a number of various catalysts were used including
phase-transfer catalysts. Reactions were followed using GC or GC-MS technique
and the presence as well as the yields of the alkylation products were
established. Generally, the best yield and high selectivity in the studied
reactions were achieved under basic conditions where in the certain cases some
products, mostly N-product, were obtained solely in quantitative yields.
Keywords: alkylation, AMides, phenylacetAMides, alkylation under neutral
conditions, alkylation under basic conditions, phase-transfer conditions.

A stereoselective free radical introduction of a
phenylthio group onto a nonactivated methyl group in the d-position, adjacent to a prochiral carbon atom, was achieved by
photolysis of (-)-menthyl benzenesulfenate in the presence of hexabutylditin
and (1R, 3R, 4S, 8S)-9-phenylthiomenthol (4)
was obtained with 91 % optical purity. High stereoselectivity of the reaction
was calculated (ab initio MP2/6-31G**) to be the consequence of the
difference in the transition state eneregies (DDG# = 5.08
kJ/mol) favouring 4 relative to (1R,3R,4S,8R)-9-phenylthiomenthol
(5). The absolute configuration of a the new chiral carbon atom was
confirmed by its correlation with the corresponding menthane-3,9-diol of known
stereochemistry.
Keywords: radical reactions, stereoselective reactions, C-H activation, absolute
configurations, ab initio calculations, menthyl benzenesulfenate,
9-phenylthiomenthol.

Chemistry, Faculty of Technology and Metallurgy, University of Belgrade, P. O.
Box 3503, 11120 Belgrade, Serbia and Montenegro
(Received 20 January,
revised 19 April 2004)
A series of alkyl 1,3-diketones were used to
study the temperature dependence of the Kovats retention indices in the
temperature range 130–190 ºC (403–463 K). The temperature dependence is
described by the empirical equation I = B + B/T + ClnT.
On the basis of this equation, the activation enthalpy, DH#, and the chemical potential of the partitioning
of one methylene group between the two phases of the chromatographic system, Dmp(CH2), were calculated. Also,
the Kovats retention indices – boiling point correlations (linear and
reciprocal) for alkyl 1,3-diketones were studied and Dmp(CH2) was calculated.
Keywords: retention indices, alkyl 1,3-diketones, temperature dependence.

Using a recently developed method for computing
the effect of non-bonding molecular orbitals (NBMOs) on the total p-electron energy (E), it was found that the dependence of E
on the number n0 of NBMOs is almost perfectly linear. We
now show that this regularity remains valid for very large values of n0,
in particular, to hold up to n0 = 20.
Keywords: total p-electron energy,

The complexed oxides Nd2–xSrxCoO4
(0.4 < x < 1.2) and LnSrCoO4 (Ln = Pr, Nd, Eu)
having the K2NiF4 structure were synthesized by the
citric-acid-complexion method. The results of XRD confirmed that the complexed
oxides have the K2NiF4 structure. Other phases were found
when x = 0.4 and x = 1.2. The influences of Nd, Pr, Eu on the
activities of LnSrCoO4 for CO oxidation and C3H8
oxidation were different. The oxidative activities, average crystalline size
and lattice distortion of Nd2–xSrxCoO4
increased with increasing x value in the oxides. When x > 0.8, the
lattice distortion decreased with increasing x. The results of O2–TPD
showed that AMount of desorption of lattice oxygen over Nd2–xSrxCoO4
increased with x, however, the AMount of chemidesorption of oxygen decreased.
With increasing x, the high-temperature reduction peak in H2–TPR of
Nd2–xSrxCoO4 shifted to higher temperatures,
however, the low-temperature reduction peak shifted to lower temperatures,
which showed that the activity of the lattice oxygen and the thermal stability
of Nd2–xSrxCoO4 increased with increasing x.
Keywords: rare earths, Co-based mixed oxides, perovskite-like, oxidation.

monolayers of alkanethiols in aqueous
solution

(Received 18 August
2003, revised 1 March 2004)
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of three n-alkanethiols,
1-octadecanethiol (C18SH), 1-dodecanethiol (C12SH), and 1-hexanethiol (C6SH),
were formed on fresh, oxide-free copper surfaces obtained by HNO3 etching.
The corrosion protection abilities of the three alkanethiol SAMs were evaluated
in 0.2 mol cm-3 NaCl, 0.2 mol cm-3 HCl and 0.2 mol dm-3
H2SO4 solutions using the electrochemical impedance
spectroscopy (EIS) method. The SAMs act as a hydrophobic barrier layer, which
effectively prevents the copper substrate from contacting corrosive ions,
thereby inhibiting corrosion of the copper to a considerable degree. A general
equivalent circuit for the SAM-covered electrodes was proposed, by means of
which the impedance behavior of the electrodes was interpreted and the
corresponding electrochemical parAMeters were acquired. In addition, the
quality of the SAMs and development of defects in the SAMs were also been
evaluated based on the equivalent circuit. The dependence of the capacitance of
the SAMs on the applied potentials was used to determine the stability of the
SAMs at the applied potentials.
Keywords: electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), self-assembled
monolayers (SAMs), alkanethiol, corrosion protection, equivalent circuit.

Zn–Fe alloy electrochemically deposited on steel
under various deposition conditions were investigated using anodic linear sweep
voltAMmetry (ALSV) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis for phase structure
determination, energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis for determination of
chemical composition, and polarization measurements and open circuit potential
measurements for determination of corrosion properties. The influence of
deposition current density on the chemical composition, phase structure and
corrosion stability of Zn–Fe alloys was studied. It was shown that deposition
current density strongly affects the corrosion stability of Zn–Fe alloys, while
Zn–Fe alloy electrodeposited at 4 A dm-2 exhibited the lowest
corrosion rate.
Keywords: electrodeposition, Zn–Fe alloy, corrosion, surface modification.

The structure of powder
particles was analysed by considering their cross sections. It was shown that
the structure of powder particles of nonsieved flowing powders is sufficiently
dense to produce a continuous surface, which does not allow the particles to
jAM and hence permits the free flow of nonsieved powder. It was also shown that
the representative powder particle, the elementary cell of which can be
presented by a 3D-cross, describes the properties of the powder relative to its
flowability well.
Keywords: copper powder
flowability, nonsieved flowing powder, cross section of powder particles.

A heat exchanger network
(HEN) for the process of methanol synthesis has been studied by pinch design
analysis. Great economic and energy savings were realized by the pinch analysis
in comparison to the existing plant. Also, it was found that it is possible to
reduce the requirements for the consumption of utilities. The HEN was
reconstruded by adding new heat exchangers. In order to produce new HEN, the
capital costs had to be increased, but the total cost trade-off between the
capital and energy costs will be decrease by 30 %.
Keywords: energy
recovery, pinch technology, HEN design, plant for methanol synthesis.
