An independent investigation of the phase diagram for the solid–liquid system nitric, acid – acetic acid has confirmed the findings of Miskidzh'yan and Trifonov (4), namely, that a 1: 1 molecular compound exists. Conductance measurements at 0°, 25°, and 40°C. have been made for the same system. It does not appear possible to predict compound formation from the conductance measurements alone. A preliminary investigation of the liquid–vapor equilibrium for the system nitric acid – acetic acid indicates the existence of a maximum boiling azeotrope. Diacetylorthonitric acid—(CH3COO)2N(OH)3—discovered by Pictet and Genequaud (8) is, in all probability, identical with this binary azeotrope. Some molecular weight measurements tend to confirm this view.

The freezing-point curves of the two-component systems hydrogen cyanide-water, hydrogen cyanide-formic acid, hydrogen cyanide-formamide and hydrogen cyanide-benzaldehyde have been determined. These systems are all of the simple eutectic type and show no evidence of molecular compound formation. A chemical reaction prohibited the investigation of solid-liquid equilibria in the case of halogen hydride-hydrogen cyanide systems.

The freezing point diagram has been plotted for mixtures of acetic acid and urotropine containing 0 to 42% urotropine. Formation of a solid compound melting at 24.8 °C., and having the approximate composition (C6H12N4)3∙(C2H4O2)13 is indicated. Repeated purification of the materials failed to shift the curve maximum to the expected ratio of 1 mole of urotropine to 4 moles of acetic acid.

The reactions between hydrogen chloride and α-, β-, and γ-butylene have been investigated in both the liquid and gaseous states. The effect of temperature and concentration of the reactants on the reaction velocities was studied and the reaction products were examined. In the liquid state the γ-isomer reacts rapidly, the α- much more slowly and the β- slowest of all. In the gaseous state at atmospheric pressure only γ-butylene shows a measurable reaction which is bimolecular and probably heterogeneous. The liquid reactions were found to be homogeneous. Where possible the freezing-point curves of the systems were determined in order to ascertain the extent of molecular compound formation. The results obtained bear out the conclusions arrived at from previous work on the effect of molecular attraction upon reaction velocity, and indicate the existence of a catalytic factor peculiar to the liquid state. Suggestions as to the mechanism of such a catalysis are offered.

Schumacher and Halbsguth first demonstrated ectodesmata as pores or channels in the epidermal cell walls in haustoria of Cuscuta odorata L. by light microscopy in tissues fixed in a sublimate fixative (30% ethyl alcohol, 30 ml:glacial acetic acid, 10 ml: 65% nitric acid, 1 ml: 40% formaldehyde, 5 ml: oxalic acid, 2 g: mecuric chloride to saturation 2-3 g). Other workers have published electron micrographs of structures transversing the outer epidermal cell in thin sections of plant leaves that have been interpreted as ectodesmata. Such structures are evident following treatment with Hg++ or Ag+ salts and are only rarely observed by electron microscopy. If ectodesmata exist without such treatment, and are not artefacts, they would afford natural pathways of entry for applied foliar solutions and plant viruses.

1,3-Bis(4-nitrophenyl)-1-butene was prepared by nitration of 1,3-diphenyl-1-butene (I) with fuming nitric acid in acetic acid. The double bond in I was protected by addition of bromine which was eliminated after the nitration. The UV, IR and 1H- spectra of the synthesized compounds are interpreted.

AbstractFour coal samples from Jharia basin, India are treated with nitric acid in glacial acetic acid and aqueous media to find out the chemical, petrographic and spatial structure of the organic mass by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. X-ray parameters of coal like interlayer spacing (d002), crystallite size (Lc), aroamticity (fa), average number of aromatic layers (Nc), and coal rank (I26/I20) have been determined using profile-fitting software. Considerable variation is observed in treated coals in comparison to the demineralized coals. The d002 values of treated coals have increased in both the media showing increase in disordering of organic moieties. A linear relationship has been observed between d002 values with the volatile matter of the coals. Similarly, the d002 values show linear relationship with Cdmf contents for demineralized as well as for the treated coals in both the media. The Lc and Nc values have decreased in treated coals corresponding to demineralized coals. The present study shows that nitration in both the media is capable of removing the aliphatic side chains from the coals and aromaticity (fa) increases with increase in rank and shows a linear relationship with the vitrinite reflectance. The corresponding I26/I20 values are least for treated coals in glacial acetic acid medium followed by raw and then to treated coals in aqueous medium. FTIR studies show that coal arenes of the raw coals are converted into nitro-arenes in structurally modified coals (SMCs) in both the media, the corresponding bands at 1550–1490 and 1355–1315 cm−1 respectively. FTIR study confirms that nitration is the predominant phenomenon, though, oxidation and nitration phenomena takes place simultaneously during treatment with nitric acid to form SMCs. In comparison to raw coals, the SMCs show higher aromaticity and may be easily converted to coal derived products like activated carbon and specialty carbon materials.
