Other Observations of Hydrogenation

While all of these effects are interesting from a research viewpoint, they clearly do not fall into the category of technologically useful hydrogenation methods.

The experiences which found expression in Dumas substitution theory led to a second type of names. The sensational observation of hydrogen replaced by other elements without fundamental change of type was immediately visualized by Dumas (19) as having a bearing on nomenclature. Lavoisier s binary nomenclature was now no longer sufficient. Dumas writes ... 

Figure 2. The dipole moment of the absorbed water molecules varies from approximately 1.8 to 0.9 for the polyimides and from 1.1 to 0.7 for the polyamide-imides corresponding to fractional polarizabilities of l.O/i -0.4/x. The low values of p (<0.5p ) as seen in all the amide-imide po ymers and several of the ° polyimides, indicate restricted mobility of the water molecules. In the amide-imide polymers, we believe this is due to increased water-polymer interactions such as hydrogen bonding. Other evidence of hydrogen bonding in polyamide-imides is the water-induced plasticization and Tg lowering frequently observed.

Aware of only these four hues, Balmer calculated 1 for a fifth hue lyn = 7). A hue with a wavelength very close to the predicted value was observed experimentally. Balmer suggested that his formula might also predict wavelengths of other series of spectral fines by using integer values for n other than 2 and rw n L 1. Other series of hydrogen lines were not known then, but were subsequently discovered (the Lyman, Paschen, Brackett, and Pfund series of fines). 

The only other observation of chemisorbed hydrogen was made by Pickering and Eckstrom (11) on rhodium films. They found a total of 18 absorption bands between 2193 cm-1 and 1416 cm-1 which they did not attempt to interpret. It is possible that the bands represent adsorption on different crystal faces of a highly polycrystalline material. 

Other evidence of hydrogen formation playing a role includes Fukunaka et al., who were able to observe an increase in Ni nanotube wall thickness when the electrodeposition bath s pH was increased. These nanotubes were produced in an unmodified polycarbonate template. They associate the nanotube formation with the depression of the H2 bubble formation, a schematic of which is found in Figure 10.13. It can be inferred that H2 generation is less at higher pHs resulting in smaller diameter bubble formation and thus thicker-walled nanotubes. Thus, H2 gas bubble formation and/or suppression must be considered as a possible aspect of the metal nanotube formation mechanism. 

Catalytic hydrogenation of 1 4 dimethylcyclopentene yields a mixture of two products Iden tify them One of them is formed in much greater amounts than the other (observed ratio =10 1) Which one is the major product" ... 

Weak to moderate chemiluminescence has been reported from a large number of other Hquid-phase oxidation reactions (1,128,136). The Hst includes reactions of carbenes with oxygen (137), phenanthrene quinone with oxygen in alkaline ethanol (138), coumarin derivatives with hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid (139), nitriles with alkaline hydrogen peroxide (140), and reactions that produce electron-accepting radicals such as HO in the presence of carbonate ions (141). In the latter, exemplified by the reaction of h on(II) with H2O2 and KHCO, the carbonate radical anion is probably a key intermediate and may account for many observations of weak chemiluminescence in oxidation reactions. 

Two observations relevant to ECM can be made. (/) Because the anode metal dissolves electrochemicaHy, the rate of dissolution (or machining) depends, by Faraday s laws of electrolysis, only on the atomic weight M and valency of the anode material, the current I which is passed, and the time t for which the current passes. The dissolution rate is not infiuenced by hardness (qv) or any other characteristics of the metal. (2) Because only hydrogen gas is evolved at the cathode, the shape of that electrode remains unaltered during the electrolysis. This feature is perhaps the most relevant in the use of ECM as a metal-shaping process (4). 

As the amount of acrylic acid in the polymer increases, the degree of hydrogen bonding between polymer chains also increases causing the cohesive strength to improve without the need for crosslinking. Very similar observations can be made for other polar monomers, such as acrylamide. 

Constitution. When coniine is distilled with zinc dust or heated with silver acetate/ a new base, coiiyrine, CgH N, differing from coniine by six atoms of hydrogen, is formed. This on oxidation yields pyridine-2-carboxylic acid and, since it is not identical with 2-isopropylpyridine, must be 2-propylpyridine (I). When coniine is heated with hydriodic acid at 300° it yields w-octane (II). These and other observations due mainly to A. W. Hofmann, made it clear by 1885 that coniine was probably a-propylpiperidine (III), and this has been amply confirmed by other reactions of the alkaloid and by syntheses. Thus, Wolffenstein showed that on oxidation with hydrogen peroxide, coniine is converted into amino-w-propylvaleraldehyde (IV) ... 

Constitution. On oxidation with chromic acid, conhydrine yields Z-piperidyl-2-earboxylic acid. It is converted into Z-coniine either by reduction of the iodo-derivative (iodoconiine), C,HijNI, formed by the action of hydriodic acid and phosphorus at 180° or by hydrogenation of the mixture of coniceines produced, when it is dehydrated by phosphorus pentoxide in toluene. These and other observations indicate that the p- ygen atom must occur as a hydroxyl group, in the w-propyl side-chain in either the a- (XV) or (XVI) position, since the y-position would involve...
