Authors: Minoura Mao , Kanamori Yuka , Miyake Akira , Akiba Kin-ya 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
Azabisomocine derivatives having a pentavalent bismuth and a nitrogen at 1,5-position were synthesized. The X-ray structural analysis reveals that these compounds have hexacoordinate distorted octahedral geometry which is caused by transannular bond formation between the bismuth and the nitrogen.

Authors: Kakizawa Taeko , Kawano Yasuro , Shimoi Mamoru 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
Heating of a benzene-d6 solution of BH3·L (L = PMe3, NMe3) and [ReH7(PPh3)2] resulted in the formation of the deuterated boranes, BH3−nDn·L (n = 0–3). Deuteration of BH3· L with [ReH5(PR3)3] (PR3 = PPh3, PPhMe2) required photoirradiation. The mechanism of the H-D exchange is discussed.

Abstract
The partial oxidation of CH4 by N2O was investigated in a dielectric-barrier discharge system at atmospheric pressure. CH4 converted to CH3OH, HCHO, and CO in this system. Total yield of CH3OH and HCHO reached about 10% in the Ar stream. It was suggested that excited Ar species and electrons might behave important role to promote the partial oxidation reaction.

Authors: Matsuda Takeshi , Hirata Yasuyoshi , Suzuki Masaki , Sakagami Hirotoshi , Takahashi Nobuo 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
Catalytic activities of reduced MoO3 for the conversions of heptane and 2-propanol were markedly enlarged by an increase in the flow rate of H2 in reduction. The degree of reduction and the surface area were found to depend on the H2 flow rate. These phenomena seem to be induced by action of H2O produced by reduction.

Abstract
Convenient syntheses of novel tripodal calix[4]cryptand and the first example of 1,2,4-tripodal calix[6]cryptand were reported by direct condensation of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene or p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene with 1,1,1-tri(tosyloxyethoxyethoxymethyl)-propane. Besides, a novel type of doublecalix[4]arenes and a novel type of calix[6]crown, were co-prepared, respectively. It was suggested that the synthetic strategy described in this paper may be genegally useful to explore the little-known field of calixcryptands.

Published: September 2003

Abstract
The reactivities of a silyl radical and porphyrins or phthalocyanines were studied using the index, ΔN, derived from “hard and soft acids and bases” concept. The silyl radical and titanyl derivatives were assigned as an electron donor and acceptors, respectively, in the reaction system. The order of the value of ΔN was in well agreement with the experimental result of the discoloration reaction.
Photodecomposition of 4-Chlorophenol Catalyzed by Titanium Silicalite-2
Authors: Kang Man Gu , Hong Jin Sup , Kim Kang-Jin 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
The photodegradation reaction rate of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) with a titanium silicalite–2 (TS-2) catalyst is found to be faster in the initial stage than with TiO2. This is primarily due to the stronger adsorption of 4-CP on the hydrophobic surface of the TS-2 catalyst. The hydrophobicity is evaluated by determining the distribution coefficients (D) between TS-2 and aqueous medium using a variety of aromatic hydrocarbons. The larger the D, the faster the initial reaction rate. The D correlates with solubility in water and partition coefficient, log Poct.

Authors: Yanagawa Akihisa , Hatae Tomomi , Yada Satoru , Sugimori Akira , Takagi Yuzuru 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
Partial hydrogenation of the exo-olefinic bond in limonene to carvomenthene proceeds smoothly by photocatalytic hydrogen transfer from 2-propanol using [Rh6(CO)16] as a catalyst under UV-irradiation in the presence of acetone. Hydrogen gas evolves after the formation of carvomenthene has been completed. 1-Hydroxy-1-methylethyl radical formed in the reaction of photochemically excited acetone with 2-propanol serves both as an activator for the catalyst and as a hydrogen source.

Abstract
We have prepared a new molybdenum polycyanide K0.9MnII1.05[MoI(CN)5(NO)]·5H2O·1.9MeOH with a face-centered cubic structure with a lattice constant of 10.72 Å. This compound exhibited a spontaneous magnetization with a Curie temperature of 39 K and a saturated magnetization value (IS) of 3.8 μB. This IS value and magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate that the magnetic coupling between MnII and MoI ions is antiferromagnetic.

Published: September 2003

Abstract
Hydrothermal synthesis of brookite was performed at 110-200 °C within 24 h using amorphous TiO2 and sodium salts as the starting material. Brookite was obtained as an almost single phase at 200 °C and TiO2 / NaOH mole ratio ≅ 1. By the results of XPS and UV-vis measurements, brookite was considered to be formed from sodium titanate by releasing Na+ and H+ of the surface accompanied by oxidation of Ti in the structure.

Abstract
A new purple vanadyl complex, bis(1-oxy-2-pyridinethiolato)oxovanadium(IV), VO(OPT), with VO(S2O2) coordination mode, was prepared by mixing 2-mercaptopyridine-N-oxide or 1-hydroxy-2-pyridinethione and VOSO4, and characterized by UV, IR and EPR spectra, magnetic susceptibility and partition coefficient. Based on the higher in vitro insulin-mimetic activity of VO(OPT) (IC50 = 0.19 mM) than that of VOSO4 (IC50 = 0.9 mM), the complex was found to be a potent agent for treating insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in rats when given by daily intravenous injection or oral administration.

Authors: Fraenkel Dan 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
The kinetics of the catalytic conversion of isobutane under gas-phase fixed-bed flow conditions over sulfated zirconia (SZ), when compared with those of other strong solid acids of known acidity, suggests that SZ may be a very strong solid superacid; this conclusion disagrees with recent reports claiming that SZ is not a superacid, and supports older claims, based on acidity tests with Hammett indicators, that SZ may have H0 of &lt; −16.

Authors: Yokoyama Hidekatsu , Sato Toshiyuki , Fukui Kouich , Ohya-Nishiguchi Hiroaki , Kamada Hitoshi 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
A new type RF ESR resonator for pulse techniques was developed. The resonator is an LC circuit that consists of a single turn coil (inner diameter, 45 mm) and ceramic capacitors. A two-turn coil-shaped polyethylene tube is located inside of the loop and an aqueous sodium chloride solution is perfused into the tube at a rate of 6 cm3/min. Its resonant frequency is approximately 300 MHz, with a Q of less than 70. Using this resonator, pulsed-longitudinally detected ESR measurements of a phantom (inner diameter, 20 mm) containing a triaryl methyl spin probe were performed. The Q value was sufficiently low for irradiation over wide frequency band in the pulsed radiowave where the pulse width was 200 ns. The apparatus can handle a sufficient high power (maximum, 100 W) adjusted according to the sample size.

Authors: Xu Zhang-Lin , Kunii Katsuyuki , Fukuoka Hiroshi , Yamanaka Shoji 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
A Iayer structured manganese titanate RbXMnXTi2−XO4 (x = 0.75) of the lepidoclocite type structure was oxidized with Ce4+ in sulfuric acid solutions. Although the titanate layer was dissolved into the acidic solutions without the oxidant, the layer showed high resistivity against the dissolution with the presence of Ce4+ ions, even in the same acidic conditions. A portion of the Rb ions were deintercalated corresponding to the amount of Mn3+ oxidized to Mn4+ in the manganese titanate layers.
A Novel Attempt to Control the Aggregation Number of Dendrons with a Saccharide
Authors: Ikeda Astushi , Numata Munenori , Shinkai Seiji 
Published: September 2003

Abstract
New dendrons containing a saccharide core were synthesized. In organic solvents these dendrons formed self-assembled particles due to the hydrogen-bonding interaction and the particle size decreased with the increase in the generation of dendrons. In this system the saccharide moieties provide a driving-force for aggregation whereas the dendritic moieties provide steric crowding for deaggregation. These two opposing effects balance with each other to control the particle size.

Abstract
Exhaustive reduction of dibromo(2,6-diisopropylphenyl){2,4,6-tris[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]phenyl}silane with excess amount of lithium naphthalenide (more than 4 molar amounts) in tetrahydrofuran at −78 °C gave the corresponding dilithiosilane, the effective formation of which was confirmed by the trapping experiments with a variety of electrophiles. The diaryldilithiosilane thus generated was found to be stable at −78 °C but undergo an intramolecular proton abstraction to give the lithium-migrated dilithiosilane.1
