Solid maleic anhydride undergoes spontaneous polymerization when it is heated to 100-170�0 at pressures above 20000 atm. On a pressure- temperature diagram, the regions of monomer stability and of polymerization are separated by a rather well-defined line, which possibly marks the occurrence of a physical polymorphic transition. The structure of the polymer is discussed. Efforts to polymerize some other 1,2-disubstituted ethylenes have been unsuccessful. The following substances were recovered unchanged after being heated to 160-180�0 at 30000-45000 atm: maleic acid, fumaric acid, crotonic acid, sorbic acid, coumarin, and trans-stilbene.�The melting temperature of maleic anhydride has been measured to 3770 atm and the parameters in the Simon melting equation are reported.

ABSTRACTCarbon atoms form very strong bonds to each other, yielding materials like: (i) crystalline graphite, diamond and their many “amorphous” hybrids; (ii) crystalline forms of giant closed–surface molecules such as the fullerenes; and (iii) liquid and gas phases which have molecular contents which are complicated and not yet defined or understood. Because of the high bonding energy the melting and vaporization temperatures of the solid forms are very high, and the activation energies required to transform one solid form to another are large. One consequence is that at lower temperatures the different solid phases may continue to exist metastably far into a P, T region in which another solid phase is the thermodynamically stable one.In the thermodynamic sense the vapor pressure line of graphite, the graphite/liquid/vapor triple point, the graphite melting line, the graphite/diamond equilibrium line, and the graphite/diamond/liquid triple point are quite well established. Data for the melting temperature of diamond vs. pressure are sparse and rough, but they indicate that the melting temperature increases with pressure,-in agreement with some theories. Although carbon should transform to a solid metallic state at very high pressures, experimental evidence shows diamond to be stable to over 400GPa, and theoretical calculations indicate that it could be the stable form up to pressures of 1200 to 2300GPa. Attention is given to the solid state transformations which can take place when graphite is compressed and heated along different P, T paths under different conditions.

The complexes C5H5Co(PMe3)2 (1), C9H7Co(PMe3)2 (2) and (C5H4CF3)Co(PMe3)2 (3) react with mono- and disubstituted ethenes such as styrene, acrylic acid methylester, methylvinylketone, acroleine, acrylic acid amide, acrylonitrile, maleic anhydride, maleic and fumaric acid dimethylester, and fumaric dinitrile to give the olefin(phosphane)cobalt compounds (ring)Co(PMe3)(olefin) (4-32) in good to excellent yields. With acrylonitrile, two different rotamers are obtained which indicates that there is a considerable energy barrier for rotation around the metal-olefin bond. The reactions of 1 and 3 with maleic acid dimethylester (MDE) lead not only to the formation of the expected products (ring)Co(PMe3)(MDE) (22, 23) but also to the thermodynamically favored isomers (ring)Co(PMe3)(FDE) (24, 26) containing fumaric acid dimethylester (FDE) as ligand. A similar isomerization has been observed upon treatment of 2 and 3 with fumaric dinitrile (FDN) which gives besides the complexes (ring)Co(PMe3)(FDN) (29, 31) also the maleic dinitrile (MDN) derivatives (ring)Co(PMe3)(MDN) (30, 32). The olefin(trimethylphosphane)cobalt compounds are surprisingly inert and neither on photolysis nor on heating give the isomeric hydrido(vinyl)metal complexes.

Summary1. The presence of citrate in the normal fibrin enhanced the fibrinolytic activity of plasminogen activators, including trypsin. The effect of proteases (on normal or on heated fibrin, containing citrate) was not significantly influenced.2. The effect of plasminogen activators was also increased when excess of plasminogen was present in the normal fibrin plates.3. Fumaric acid and maleic acid belong to the polycarboxylic acids producing an enhancing effect.

A series of 1,4:5,8-diepoxynaphthalenes, annellated with carbo- and heterocycles, was synthesized based on the tandem intermolecular/intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition of bis-furyl dienes with moderately to highly reactive cyclic dienophiles (maleic anhydride and maleinimides).
