Abstract A seeded growth method has been used to study the kinetics of crystallization of calcium sulfate dihydrate at various temperatures and at ionic strengths up to 0.6M. Under all conditions, the rate of reaction is proportional to the square of the relative supersaturation and is controlled by a surface process. The same kinetics are applicable for the growth of calcium sulfate hemihydrate at temperatures above 110 C. The organic phosphonates effectively retard scale formation, and diethylenetriaminepenta (methylenephosphonic acid), when present at a concentration as low as 10−7M, completely inhibits the growth of calicum sulfate hemihydrate at 120 C. By assuming that the inhibitor molecules are adsorbed on growth sites on the surface of the crystals, the inhibition can be interpreted in terms of a simple Langmuir adsorption isotherm.

Reaction of bromobis(polyfluorophenyl)thallium(III) compounds, R2TlBr (R = C6F5, p-HC6F4, m-HC6F4 or 3,5-H2C6F3) and (C6F5)2TlOH, with copper powder in boiling 1,4-dioxan (diox) or diethyl ether gave the corresponding tris(polyfluorophenyl)thallium(III) compounds, which were isolated as the complexes R3Tl,diox. By contrast, the derivatives R2TlBr (R = o- HC6F4, 3,6-H2C6F3 or Ph) failed to react, and (C6F5)2TlBr was decomposed by copper powder in boiling toluene yielding decafluorobiphenyl. Formation of tris(polyfluorophenyl)thallium(III) compounds is considered to occur via polyfluorophenylcopper(I) intermediates. Treatment of (C6F5)2TlBr with pentafluorophenylcopper in dioxan gave (C6F5)3Tl,diox. The new bromobis-(polyfluorophenyl)thallium(III) compounds, R2TIBr (R = p-HC6F4, m-HC6F4, o-HC6F4, 3,5-H2C6F3 or 3,6- H2C6F3), were prepared by reaction of thallic chloride with the appropriate Grignard reagents.

1. Retinol and stilbene are both isomerized when they are illuminated anaerobically in the presence of flavins. 2. Triplet quenchers (e.g. oxygen, potassium iodide and paramagnetic ions) inhibit the reaction more efficiently than they quench flavin fluorescence. At 77°C in a diethyl ether–isopentane–ethanol (5:5:2) glass retinol quenches flavin phosphorescence, but not its fluorescence. 3. For the stilbene reaction cis/trans photostationary-state mixtures are obtained with different flavins and these are linearly related to the phosphorescence transition energies of the flavins used. 4. The reaction involves the triplet state of flavin and a scheme for the reaction is suggested. 5. The dependence of the rate of reaction on substrate concentration is explicable in terms of this scheme. 6. The photobleaching of rhodopsin sensitized by flavin is also demonstrated.
