The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of acyclic 2-diazo-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (DDC) and thioketones preferably occurs with Z,E-conformers and leads to the formation of transient thiocarbonyl ylides in two stages. The thermodynamically favorable further transformation of C=S ylides bearing at least one acyl group is identified as the 1,5-electrocyclization into 1,3-oxathioles. However, in the case of diazomalonates, the dominating process is 1,3-cyclization into thiiranes followed by their spontaneous desulfurization yielding the corresponding alkenes. Finally, carbocyclic diazodiketones are much less reactive under similar conditions due to the locked cyclic structure and are unfavorable for the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition due to the Z,Z-conformation of the diazo molecule. This structure results in high, positive values of the Gibbs free energy change for the first stage of the cycloaddition process.

The thermodynamic calculation is valuable for judging the feasibility of a reaction. In the present paper, the enthalpy change (∆HR), entropy change (∆SR) and Gibbs free energy change (∆GR) among various components in AZ91D Mg alloy-Cenosphere composites (FAC/AZ91D) were calculated. Through the calculation, we obtained the relationships between the Gibbs free energy changes and temperatures. The difficulty degree of every potential reaction could be directly reflected by the correlation curve between the temperature and the Gibbs free energy change. The analysis result provided the theoretical basis for the reaction temperature and the solution treatment temperature of the FAC/AZ91D system. At the same time, the analysis based on the minimum principle of the reaction free energy revealed the final components (MgO, Mg2Si and MgAl2O4), which was partially similar to the result of XRD analysis (MgO, Mg2Si and Mg17Al12).

Preparing titanium powders by calcium vapor reduction of titanium oxide directly is a new way with short flow sheet and CaTiO3 is the very important intermediate compound in this process. In this paper, the behavior of intermediate CaTiO3 in the reduction process of TiO2 was investigated. The thermodynamic calculation indicated that the Gibbs free energy change of the reaction to produce CaTiO3 by CaO and TiO2 was always negative below 1000 °C; The reaction Gibbs free energy change of the calciothermic reduction of CaTiO3 was lower than that of TiO, which would be the most predominant step from TiO2 to Ti. The experimental results showed that CaTiO3 phase derived from the reaction between TiO2 and the reduction by-product CaO, and the reaction between TiO2 and the decomposition product CaO from the additive of CaCl2 with crystal water as well in the calcium vapor reduction process of titanium oxide. But CaTiO3 could be reduced to Ti much easier than that of TiO2 by calcium vapor.
