Sodium/silver substitution

In ion exchange, ions are exchanged between two different environments so, zeolites, hydrotalcite-like materials, and clays can exchange nonframework ions when suspended in aqueous solutions of other ions in some cases, the process can also be performed in molten salts at moderate temperatures. Sodium/silver substitution in p-alumina takes place at 300 °C according to the reaction ... 

The use of chemisorption allows the selectivity to be increased considerably, which usually permits acceleration of separations. Janak was one of the first to apply chemisorption for analytical separation purposes [98]. For example, for hydrogen analysis he used a zeolite the surface of which was coated with palladium [98], and for olefin determinations he used a zeolite in which sodium was substituted with silver [99]. Duffield and... 

Silver substituted zeoUthes are most widely used as polymer additives for food applications (12,13). The silver is incorporated by the substitution of the sodium ions in the zeolithes. These substituted zeolites are incorporated into polymers like PE, poly(propylene), poly(amide) at levels of 1-3%. 

Simple ABO compounds in addition to BaTiO are cadmium titanate [12014-14-17, CdTiO lead titanate [12060-00-3] PbTiO potassium niobate [12030-85-2] KNbO sodium niobate [12034-09-2], NaNbO silver niobate [12309-96-5], AgNbO potassium iodate [7758-05-6], KIO bismuth ferrate [12010-42-3], BiFeO sodium tantalate, NaTaO and lead zirconate [12060-01 -4], PbZrO. The perovskite stmcture is also tolerant of a very wide range of multiple cation substitution on both A and B sites. Thus many more complex compounds have been found (16,17), eg, (K 2 i/2) 3 ... 

In the examples, a nitro group is substituted for a hydrogen atom, and water is a by-product. Nitro groups may, however, be substituted for other atoms or groups of atoms. In Victor Meyer reactions which use silver nitrite, the nitro group replaces a hahde atom, eg, I or Br. In a modification of this method, sodium nitrite dissolved in dimethyl formamide or other suitable solvent is used instead of silver nitrite (1). Nitro compounds can also be produced by addition reactions, eg, the reaction of nitric acid or nitrogen dioxide with unsaturated compounds such as olefins or acetylenes. 

The poor efficiencies of coal-fired power plants in 1896 (2.6 percent on average compared with over forty percent one hundred years later) prompted W. W. Jacques to invent the high temperature (500°C to 600°C [900°F to 1100°F]) fuel cell, and then build a lOO-cell battery to produce electricity from coal combustion. The battery operated intermittently for six months, but with diminishing performance, the carbon dioxide generated and present in the air reacted with and consumed its molten potassium hydroxide electrolyte. In 1910, E. Bauer substituted molten salts (e.g., carbonates, silicates, and borates) and used molten silver as the oxygen electrode. Numerous molten salt batteiy systems have since evolved to handle peak loads in electric power plants, and for electric vehicle propulsion. Of particular note is the sodium and nickel chloride couple in a molten chloroalumi-nate salt electrolyte for electric vehicle propulsion. One special feature is the use of a semi-permeable aluminum oxide ceramic separator to prevent lithium ions from diffusing to the sodium electrode, but still allow the opposing flow of sodium ions. 

A novel route to synthesize l,3 -triazine-2,4(l//,3//)-diones through the desulfurization of thiocarboamides, such as 1,3-disubstituted 2-thioureas, trisubstituted thioureas and N-substituted thioamides by silver cyanate has been reported <00H(53)929>. Treatment of urazole 23 with one equivalent of sodium hydride under anhydrous conditions, followed by addition of dimethyl sulfate, leads to l,3,5-triazine-2,4-dione 24 in 80% yield . 

In this section we are concerned with the properties of intrinsic Schottky and Frenkel disorder in pure ionic conducting crystals and with the same systems doped with aliovalent cations. As already remarked in Section I, the properties of uni-univalent crystals, e.g. sodium choride and silver bromide which contain Schottky and cationic Frenkel disorder respectively, doped with divalent cation impurities are of particular interest. At low concentrations the impurity is incorporated substitutionally together with an additional cation vacancy to preserve electrical neutrality. At sufficiently low temperatures the concentration of intrinsic defects in a doped crystal is negligible compared with the concentration of added defects. We shall first mention briefly the theoretical methods used for such systems and then review the use of the cluster formalism. 

Poor to modest yields of trinitromethyl compounds are reported for the reaction of silver nitroform with substituted benzyl iodide and bromide substrates. Compounds like (36), (37), and (38) have been synthesized via this route these compounds have much more favourable oxygen balances than TNT and are probably powerful explosives." The authors noted that considerable amounts of unstable red oils accompanied these products. The latter are attributed to O-alkylation, a side-reaction favoured by an SnI transition state and typical of reactions involving benzylic substrates and silver salts. Further research showed that while silver nitroform favours 0-alkylation, the sodium, potassium and lithium salts favour C-alkylation." The synthesis and chemistry of 1,1,1-trinitromethyl compounds has been extensively reviewed. The alkylation of nitronate salts has been the subject of an excellent review by Nielsen." ... 

Azetidin-2-one can be synthesized by treating 1-ethoxy-1-hydroxycy-clopropane with aqueous sodium azide at pH 5.5 (Scheme 8.7a). This type of construction has wider applications and A-substituted derivatives are formed from 1-amino-1-hydroxycyclopropanes in two steps first A-chlorination with tert- miy hypochlorite [2-methylpropan-2-yl chlo-rate(I)], and then treatment with silver ion in acetonitrile (ethanenitrile) to release chloride ion and trigger ring expansion of the tricycle (Scheme 8.7b).
