(Received 25 September 2001)
In this model study an alternative synthetic approach to the C1–C7 fragment of epothilones was investigated. Starting from 4,4-dimethylcyclopentenone, a 7 step reaction sequence afforded the key intermediate 7 in 27 % overall yield. Surprisingly, the attempted deprotection of latent functionalities in 7 failed, indicating the incompatibility of the ethoxyethyl protective group with the reaction conditions employed.

Keywords: epothilones, epoxides, enol ethers, alkylations, Lewis acids.

Chemistry Department, Faculty of Education, Ain Shams University, Roxy, Cairo, Egypt

(Received 12 September, revised 6 December 2001)
Proton-ligand formation constants of isatin-3-thiosemicarbazone (HIT) ; N-acetylisatin-3-thiosemicarbazone (HAIT) and 5-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-1,2,4-triazino[5,6-b]indole-3-thione (HBITr) ligands and their corresponding metal-ligand formation constants with Mn2+, Fe3+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, UO22+ and Th2+ ions were determined pH-metrically at 10, 20, 30 and 40°C in 75 %(v/v) ethanol–water. The thermodynamic parameters (DG, DH and DS) were also evaluated. It was found that both log K1 and –DH1, for HIT and HAIT-complexes are somewhat larger than log K2and –DH2, indicating a change in the dentate character of these ligands from tridentate (ONN-donors) in 1:1 chelates to bidentate (ON-donors) in 1:2; M:L chelates. In contrast, the values of log K2 and – DH2 for HBITr-complexes are somewhat larger than log K1 and –DH1, indicating a strong trans-effect for the second coordination. The dissociation process is non-spontaneous, endothermic and entropically unfavourable while the complexation process is spontaneous, exothermic and entropically favourable. The thermodynamic parameters were separated into their electrostatic (el) and non-electrostatic (non) constituents.

Keywords: dissociation, stability constants, thermodynamic parameters, isatin-3-thiosemicarbazone, N-acetylisatin-3-thiosemicarbazone, 5-(p-nitrobenzoyl)-1,2,4-triazino[5,6-b]indole-3-thione.

Heats of formation for the azine series: A Gaussian-3 study

MEI-FUN CHENG, HO-ON HO, CHOW-SHING LAM and WAI-KEE LI

Department of Chemistry, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shatin, N.T., Hong Kong

(Received 28 November 2001)
Applying the Gaussian-3 (G3) model and its variant G3(MP2), and using the atomization scheme, the heats of formation (DHf) at 0 K and 298 K have been calculated for twelve monocyclic azines with the general formula Nn(CH)6-n,n = 1, 2, …, 6. Upon comparing the calculated results with available experimental data, it is found that the calculated structural parameters agree very well with the experimental ones. Additionally, most of the calculated DHf values are well within ±10 kJ mol-1 of the available experimental data. Thus, it is concluded that the unfavorable accumulation of component errors found in the Gaussian-2 methods is greatly reduced in the G3 models. Also, the calculated DHf values for those azines for which no experimental data exists should be reliable estimates.

Keywords: azines, heats of formation, Gaussian-3 calculation.

Solvent extraction of Sc(III) from sulfuric acid solution by bis (2-ethylhexyl) phosphinic acid in toluene

DEVENDRA V. KOLADKAR and PURSHOTTAM M. DHADKE

Inorganic Chemistry Laboratory, Department of Chemical Technology, University of Mumbai, Matunga, Mumbai 400019, India

(Received 2 July, revised 30 October 2001)
Liquid-liquid extraction of scandium(III) from sulfuric acid solution using bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphinic acid (PIA-8) in toluene has been studied. The extraction of scandium(III) was found to be quantitative with 0.03 M PIA-8 in toluene in the acidic range of 0.1–0.5 M and 6.0–8.0 M H2SO4. The effect of the reagent concentration and other parameters on the extraction of scandium(III) was also studied. The stoichiometry of the extracted species of scandium(III) was determined on the basis of the slope analysis method. The extraction reaction proceeds via the cation exchange mechanism in the H2SO4 concentration range of 0.1–0.5 M and the extracted species is ScR3.3HR. However, at higher acidity (6.0 M –8.0 M H2SO4) it proceeds by solvation. The extracted species is HSc(SO4)2.4HR. The temperature dependencies of the extraction equilibrium constants were examined to estimate the apparent thermodynamic functions (DH, DS and DG) for the extraction reaction.

Keywords: scandium(III), solvent extraction, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphinic acid, sulfate.

(Received 25 July, revised 1 November 2001)
A new method for the determination of the ability of an electrolyte to distrubute uniformly current density in an electrochemical cell is proposed. It is based on the comparison of the current in cells in which the electrode edges touch the cell side walls with the current in cells with different electrode edge – cell side wall distances. The effects of cell geometry, process parameters and current density are discussed and illustrated using the results presented in the previous papers from this series.

Keywords: metal electrodeposition, electrochemical cell, current distrubution.

(Received 11 May 2001)
Single crystals of Bi12SiO20 were grown from the melt by the Czochralski technique. The critical crystal diameter dc = 10 mm and the critical rate of rotation wc = 20 rpm were calculated by equations from the hydrodynamics of a melt. The rate of crystal growth was experimentally obtained to be 5 mm/h. The crystal growth was in the [ 111]  direction. The lattice parameter a = 1.0096 nm was determined by X-ray powder diffraction. The reflectance spectra were recorded in the wave numbers range 20–5000 cm-1 at different temperatures. For all the recorded spectra the values of the vibrational TO and LO modes were found using the Kramers-Kronig analysis (KKA). Twentyfive TO and LO modes were found at 70 K, and eighteen at 295 K. The obtained results are discussed and compared with published data.

Keywords: bismuth silicon oxide single crystals, Czochralski technique, critical diameter, critical rate of rotation, optical properties.

(Received 17 October, revised 17 December 2001)
Y3Al5O12 doped with 0.8 % wt. Nd (Nd:YAG) single crystals were grown by the Czochralski technique under an argon atmosphere. The conditions for growing the Nd: YAG single crystals were calculated by using a combination of Reynolds and Grashof numbers. The critical crystal diameter and the critical rate of rotation were calculated from the hydrodynamics of the melt. The crystal diameter Dc = 1.5 cm remained constant during the crystal growth, while the critical rate of rotation changed from wc = 38 rpm after necking to wc = 13 rpm at the end of the crystal. The value of the rate of crystal growth was experimentally found to be 0.8–1.0 mm/h. According to our previous experiments, it was confirmed that 20 min exposure to conc. H3PO4 at 603 K was suitable for chemical polishing. Also, one-hour exposure to conc. H3PO4 at 493 K was found to be suitable for etching. The lattice parameter a = 1.201 (1) nm was determined by X-ray powder diffraction. The obtained results are discussed and compared with published data.

Keywords: Czochralski technique, Nd:YAG, growth, single crystal, etching.

In memoriam: Professor Ernest B. Yeager

Ernest B. Yeager, the Frank Hovorka Professor of Chemistry at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, USA, died on March 8, 2002. Prof. Yeager was an Honorary Member of the Serbian Chemical Society and a Member of the Editorial Board of this journal.
To keep the memory of Professor Yeager's colossal contribution to electrochemistry and physical acoustics it is not necessary to dwell long on nearly 50 years of teaching at the Case Western Reserve University, advising 80 PhD thesis and 45 postdoctoral fellowships (domestic and international), 270 scientific papers and 20 books edited or co-edited.
Ernest B. Yeager graduated summa cum laude with his B.A. degree from Montclair State University in 1945. He enrolled as a graduate student in chemistry at Western Reserve University in 1945. After earning his Ph.D. in 1948, he joined the Department of Chemistry of the Case Western Reserve University, where he served until his retirement in 1990. He became a full professor in 1958.
Prof. Yeager founded the Case Center of Electrochemical Studies in 1976 which later become the Yeager Center of Electrochemical Sciences. The Center is one of the largest University research groups in the United States working in the field of electrochemistry. In 1994 the Center was rededicated in his honor as the Ernest B. Yeager Center for Electrochemical Sciences.
During his career he served as president of the Electrochemical Society 1963-66 and the International Society of Electrochemistry 1969-71, as well as vice president of the Acoustical Society of America.
Among the awards he received are the Acheson Medal and the Vittoria de Nora Medal – both from the Electrochemical Society. He also received the Biennial Award of the Acoustical Society of America and a Navy Certificate of Commendation, for work as a member of the committee on undersea warfare. Prof. Yeager's research and teaching made him internationally known. Yugoslav electrochemists, especially those from the Belgrade electrochemistry school, considered him not only an outstanding scientist, but also a generous person. We enjoyed travelling with him through our country, listening to his lectures during his visits to Belgrade, having scientific, but also general discussions with him. The members of the Serbian Chemical Society recognized his warm feelings and were honored to have him as a friend. Those who had the privilege to work with him, to familiarize themselves with his huge scientific knowledge, also had the oportunity to familiarize themselves with a man of honor, simply a great man. We will mourn Prof. Yeager's death with the permanent feeling that a real personality has left us.
