Reactions between niobium(V), tantalum(V), and protactinium(V) chlorides and bromides and sodium N,N-diethyldithiocarbamate (Nadtc) have been examined in non-aqueous, non-oxygenated organic solvents. Complexes obtained are of the types Mdtc4X, Mdtc3X2, Mdtc3S, Mdtc2X3, and Mdtc2X3.nC6H6 (n = 0.7–1.0); not all complexes have been isolated for each metal. Within each group the niobium(V) and tantalum(V) complexes are isostructural; possible structures are discussed in the light of results from infrared (i.r.) and nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectra, molecular weight, and electrical conductivity measurements.

To determine the molecular weight of graft chains in grafted films, the polystyrene graft chains of PVDF–g–St films synthesized by a pre-irradiation graft method are cleaved and separated by boiling xylene extraction. The analysis of the extracted material and the residual films by FTIR, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) analyses indicates that most graft chains are removed from the PVDF–g–St films within 72 h of extraction time. Furthermore, the molecular weight of the residual films decreases quickly within 8 h of extraction and then remains virtually unchanged up to 72 h after extraction time. The degradation is due to the cleavage of graft bonds, which is mainly driven by the thermal degradation and the swelling of graft chains in solution. This allows determination of the molecular weight of graft chains by GPC analysis of the extracted material. The results indicate that the PVDF–g–St prepared in this study has the structure where one or two graft chains hang from each PVDF backbone.

The capsular polysaccharide of Haemophilus pleuropneumoniae serotype 2 (ATCC 27089) is composed of D-glucose (two parts), D-galactose (one part), glycerol (one part), and phosphate (one part). Hydrolysis, dephosphorylation, methylation, enzymic studies, and 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance experiments showed that the polysaccharide is a high molecular weight polymer of a tetrasaccharide repeating units, linked by monophosphate diester and having the following structure:[Formula: see text]

1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the high-molecular-weight (> 104) polyphenol fraction from Fucusvesiculosus, before and after acetylation or methylation, demonstrates that it is composed of phloroglucinol units (48.9 ± 3.5%) and 2,2′,4,4′,6,6′-hexahydroxybiphenyl, 2,2′,2″,4,4′,4″,6,6′,6″-nonahydroxy-1,1′:3′1″-terphenyl, and related quater-and polyphenyl groups (together, 51.1 ± 3.5%) linked by ether bonds, each bond involving the carbinol and methine carbons of different units and the formal loss of a molecule of hydrogen. The polymer is highly branched, with ca. 20 – 22% of the constituent units being chain termini; there is no evidence for large rings of units. Approximately 5 – 10% of the phloroglucinol and 54 – 82% of the directly bonded units occur on the exterior of the molecule, whereas the interior backbone consists predominantly of ether-linked phloroglucinol units.
