(Received 16 May 1997)
In the acid (H2SO4) catalysed reaction of 4-tert-butyl-4-penten-1-ol (3), the products of 1,2-methyl rearrangement were obtained (the tetrahydripyran-type ether 8 and the aldehyde 9). The "normal" and rearranged cyclisation products 7 and 8 were formed in approximately equal amounts (34% and 36%, respectively), while the open-chain aldehyde with a rearranged skeleton 9 was also formed in significant yield (29%). The oxymercuration/demercuration reaction of 3 and its reaction with meta-chloroperbenzoic acid afforded in high yields exclusively Markovnikov-type products, i.e., the THF ether 7 and the THF-hydroxy ether 17.

Key words: intramolecular cyclisation, 4-tert-butyl-4-pentenl-ol, electrophilic regents.

(Received 27 July 1997)
The effect of various phenyl substituents on the reactivity of the carboxy groups of 3-N-(4-substituted phenyl)-5-carboxy uracils has been investigated. The substitutents at the phenyl nucleus were as follows: H, Br, I, NO2, OMe. The rate constants of the investigated acids in their reaction with diasodiphenylmethane (DDM) were determined in methanol and in ethanol at 30°C, using the known spectrophotometric method. The obtained kinetic data, as well as the values of the IR stretching vibrations of the principals of linear free energy correlations. Considering that the substituted phenyl group resides at the nitrogen atom, having two carbonyl groups as ortho substituents, it is very probable that the effect of the substituents in position 4 of the phenyl nucleus is influenced by resonance interactions between the nitrogen electron pair, the carbonyl groups and the substituent itself. The polarity of the reaction medium also affects the complex resonance interactions in the molecules of the investigated compounds.

Key words: 3-N-(4-substituted phenyl)-5-carboxy uracils, diazodiphenylmethane, transmission of substituent effects, solvent effects.

(Received 1 July 1997)
The hydriding and dehydriding process of a graphite powder doped with palladium was investigated. It was shown that, based on the spillover hydrogen effect the graphite powder is transformed into a very active hydrogen absorber. Kinetic and thermodynamic investigations of the hydriding and dehydriding processes have been conducted. The activation energy of the hydriding process and the enthalpies of the hydriding and dehydriding processes have been determined. The absorbed hydrogen and absorber (R) ratio has been determined and it has been shown that the prepared powder graphite acts as a very active hydrogen absorber.

Key words: Hydriding and dehydriding of graphite, spillover hydrogen effect.

The electron transfer reaction between trans-dichlorbis(1,2-diaminoethane)cobalt(III) ion and hexacyanoferrate(II), which proceeds via the formation of a precursor complex, has been investigated in aqueous mixtures of methanol, ethanol, tert-butanol and 1,4-dioxan. The association constant of the formation of the precursor complex and the rate constant for the electron transfer step have been experimentally determined in these binary solvent mixtures. The reaction was carried out at three different temperatures and the activation parameters have been computed. The effect of the solvent on the reaction rate has been analysed in the light of various solvent parameters.

Key words: cobalt(III), reduction, solvent effect, iron(II).

In the presence of the dispersing effect, the impedance of a double-layer behaves as a Constant Phase Element (CPE) rather than as an ideal capacitor. In this paper, the origin of the dispersing effect is satisfactorily accounted for by combining the CPE and the resistance element. The derived impedance expression for a single dispersing capacitive arc is consistent with the Cole-Cole formula. According to the manifestation of the dispersing effect in impedance (or admittance) complex planes, several linear relations have been proposed to calculate accurately and conveniently the electrochemical parameters from a single dispersing sapacitive loop using the linear least squares regression method. The method has also been applied to the analysis of inductive loops, as well as more complicated EIS.

Key words: dispersing effect, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), constant phase element (CPE), double-layer, circuit description code (CDC).

(Received 4 April, revised 9 July 1997)
The influence of iodine, iodide, iodate and manganese(II), as well as the pretreatment of the platinum electrode, on the potentiometric determination of arsenic(III) and antimony(III) with dichromate in sulphuric and hydrochloric acid solutions, respectively, has been investigated. The bipotentiometric curves obtained during the determination of arsenic(III) with dichromate in 2.0-5.0 mol. dm-3 sulphuric acid solutions, indicate the presence of two reversible redox pairs in the solution. The redox systems As(V)/As(III) in 1.0-5.0 mol dm-3 hydrochloric acid solutions and Sb(V)/Sb(III) in 1.0-5.0 mol dm-3 sulphuric acid solutions are irreversible. Antimony(III) cannot be determined by the bipotentiometric method in hydrochloric acid solutions. A decrease in the polarization current of the indicator electrodes and an increase in the concentration of the acid lead to more pronounced potential difference changes at the end-point. Under optimal working conditions, the errors in the potentiometric and bipotentiometric determination of samples containing 15-40 mg of arsenic(III) or 25-60 mg of antimony(III) are not greater than ± 1.5%.

Key words: arsenic(III), antimony(III), dichromate, potentiometric and bipotentiometric titrations, induced reaction.

A kinetic method for the determination of the insecticide endosulfan (6,7,8,9,10,10-hexachloro-1,5,5a,6,9,9a-hexahydro-6,9-methano-2,4,3-benzodioxathpiepin,3-oxide) is proposed. The activation effect of the insecticide on the oxidation of carminic acid by hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by copper(II) has been used. The reaction was carried out in an alkaline medium in a solution of acetone (0.17 mol dm-3) and dimethylformamide (0.13 mol dm-3), thus enabling the determination of endosulfan in the presence of the pesticides bifenox and isoproturon. The method enables the determination of endosulfan in the concentration range of 0.76-3.04 µg cm-3 with a relative standard deviation of 2.7%. The effect of other pesticides on the accuracy of these determinations was investigated. In addition, a kinetic expression for the proposed indicator reaction was formulated, and the effect of temperature on the reaction rate was investigated. The correlative activation parameters were also calculated.

Key words: insecticide kinetic determination; endosulfan 6,7,8,9,10,10-hexachloro-1,5,5a,6,9,9a-hexahydro-6,9-methano- 2,4,3-benzodioxathiepin, 3-oxide), oxidation of carminic acid; hydrogen peroxide.
