Spectrophotometric measurements on solutions of stannic iodide were found to provide evidence for complex formation with aromatic hydrocarbons. Calculations, based on spectra for mixed solutions of benzene and stannic iodide in carbon tetrachloride, yield values of 0.26 for the equilibrium constant (mole fraction), 28 400 1/mole cm for the molar extinction coefficient of the benzene – stannic iodide complex. Kinetic evidence indicates that the order of decreasing complex stabilities is from xylene to toluene to benzene. The formation of stannic iodide – aromatic hydrocarbon complexes provides an explanation for the discrepancy between measured solubilities of stannic iodide in benzene, toluene, and xylene, and the solubilities predicted by the Hildebrand theory of regular solutions.

The excess volumes of twenty binary mixtures of four aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and p-xylene) and five linear alkanols (methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, and 1-pentanol) at 20 °C are reported. The excess volume of systems with the same alkanol increases with increasing size and number of substituents on the benzene ring. For systems with the same aromatic hydrocarbon it increases with the length of the alkanols. The dependence of ∆V/φ1ϑ2 values on composition is noticeably asymmetric. Systems with benzene as one of the component show larger ∆V/φ1ϑ2 values than other systems and systems with methanol show different compositional dependence patterns.

We show that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) chromophores that are linked between two five-membered rings can access planarized structures with reduced optical gaps and redox potentials. Two aceanthrylene chromophores were connected into dimer model systems with the chromophores either projected outward (2,2’-biaceanthrylene) or inward (1,1’-biaceanthrylene) and the optical and electronic properties were compared. Only the planar 2,2’-biaceanthrylene system showed significant reductions of the optical gaps (1 eV) and redox potentials in relation to the aceanthrylene monomer.<br>

The conversion of n-heptanes into aromatic hydrocarbons benzene, toluene and xylenes (BTX), by the chromatographic pulse method in the temperature range of 673 - 823K was performed over the HZSM-5 and Ag-HZSM-5 zeolites modified by ion exchange with AgNO3 aqueous solutions. The catalysts, HZSM-5 (SiO2/Al2O3 = 33.9), and Ag-HZSM-5 (Ag1-HZSM-5 wt. % Ag1.02, Ag2-HZSM-5 wt. % Ag 1.62; and Ag3-HZSM-5 wt. % Ag 2.05 having different acid strength distribution exhibit a conversion and a yield of aromatics depending on temperature and metal content. The yield of aromatic hydrocarbons BTX appreciably increased by incorporating silver cations Ag+ into HZSM-5.


In the first paper of this series (Burgoyne 1937) the kinetics of the isothermal oxidation above 400° C of several aromatic hydrocarbons was studied. The present communication extends this work to include the phenomena of ignition in the same temperature range, whilst the corresponding reactions below 400° C form the subject of further investigations now in progress. The hydrocarbons at present under consideration are benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, n -propylbenzene, o-, m - and p -xylenes and mesitylene.
