The title complex, [Co(C(8)H(8)O(5))(H(2)O)(3)]·H(2)O, was synthesized by reaction of cobalt acetate with 7-oxabicyclo-[2.2.1]heptane-2,3-dicarb-oxy-lic anhydride (norcantharidin) in aqueous solution. In the mol-ecule, the Co(II) atom is six-coordinated in a distorted octa-hedral environment, binding to the bridging O atom of the bicyclo-heptane unit, to two O atoms from monodentate carboxyl-at...

The approach of mechanism generation is the accepted one of assigning generic rates to reactions in the same class. The procedure has been successfully applied to higher paraffins that include detailed sub-models of n-hexane, cyclohexane, n-heptane, n-decane, n-dodecane, and n-hexadecane and semi-detailed submodels of iso-octane and methyl cyclohexane, in addition to reactions of aromatic forma...

The phase behavior for systems containing sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl sulfosuccinate) (AOT), with the cationic hydrotrope tetraethyl ammonium chloride (TEAC), in the presence of water and heptane were studied. Formulations of microemulsion for such systems and for systems containing the so called “extended surfactant” were carried out at different salt concentrations. Anisotropy was detected using ...

7-Aza-bicyclo-[2.2.1]heptane (7-aza-norbornane) is a bridged heterocyclic nucleus found in epibatidine, the alkaloid isolated from the skin of the tropical poison frog Epipedobates tricolor. Since epibatidine is known as one of the most potent acetyl-choline nicotinic receptor agonists, a plethora of literature has been devoted to this alkaloid. However, there are no structural data on the unsu...

The surface properties of coal, interactions with gaseous and vapour media, knowledge the pore structure are important in terms preparation, use, utilisation coal. This publication combines new unpublished data analyses included earlier publications by research team to expand systematise information on sorption water vapour, methanol saturated unsaturated hydrocarbons hexane, 1-hexene, heptane,...

We apply to the primary reference fuels n-heptane and iso-octane the chemistry-guided reduction (CGR) formalism for generating kinetic hydrocarbon oxidation models. The approach is based on chemical lumping and species removal with the necessity analysis method. We demonstrate that the lumping technique can be applied to the branched peroxy radical isomers formed by iso-octane oxidation with mi...

In this study, an in-house multi-dimensional code has been developed which simulates the combustion of n-heptane in a Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition (HCCI) engine. It couples the flow field computations with detailed chemical kinetic scheme which involves the multi-reactions equations. A chemical kinetic scheme solver has been developed and coupled for solving the chemical reactions an...
