In einem einzigen Schritt erhält man ausgehend von Bipyrrol-Vorstufen in über 70 % Ausbeute Cyclo[8]pyrrole. Diese verkörpern eine neue Klasse von Porphyrin-Analoga und weisen die charakteristische scheibenartige Struktur der Porphyrine auf. Aus der Struktur eines solchen Cyclo[8]pyrrols im Kristall (siehe Bild) geht…

Abstract Colored fibers can be intimately blended in suitable proportions to achieve a specific color. This kind of formulation suffers from a lack of computer‐aided tool to assist the colorist attempting to find a good recipe to reproduce a target color. In this article a color‐matching system based on the theoretica…

Ab initio total-energy density functional theory is used to investigate the low temperature (LT) monoclinic form of Mg2NiH4. The calculated minimum energy geometry of LT Mg2NiH4 is close to that determined from neutron diffraction data, and the NiH4 complex is close to a regular tetrahedron. The enthalpies of the phas…

The electric permittivity of the sodium niobate ceramic was investigated in the temperature range from 15 up to 900 K, at frequencies from 100 Hz to 1 MHz. Three anomalies were found in the permittivity curve. A phase transition for NaNbO3 was assigned to anomaly at around 280 K, while other two ones have previously b…

Abstract The effect of the starting polymer on the reaction of sulfonation of polysulfones was investigated. When concentrated sulfuric acid is used as the sulfonation reagent in an organic solvent‐free reaction, a polymer degradation equally occurs, leading to a decrease in the yield of product recovery.
