The average energy per ion pair, W , for the ionization of helium by 1 to 6 MeV α -particles is calculated using the Born approximation, the number of ion pairs produced by secondary, tertiary, etc., electrons being calculated from an integral equation which is solved numeric­ally. The calculated W is nearly constant over this energy range, with average W = 41∙1 eV. This agrees well with the value, W = 42∙7 eV, measured recently by Jesse & Sadauskis for 5∙3 MeV α -particles in helium, and supports their suggestion that the earlier measured values of W for α -particles in helium may have been spuriously low owing to the presence of small amounts of other gases.

Photoelectric diodes with aluminum photocathod.es have been calibrated in the energy range from 0.1 keV to 1 keV with a multielement Henke X-ray tube system using regenerative monochromatic filters. The calibration is performed at six energies: (1) Be - (0.109 keV) , (2) C - Kα (0.277 keV), (3) Ti – Lα1, 2 (0.452 keV) , (4) Fe – Lα1, 2 (0.705 keV), (5) Cu – Lα1, 2 (0.930 keV), and (6) Al – Kαl, 2 (1.487 keV). Several different 99.9%, (1000 series) aluminum foils were calibrated for use as cathodes. In addition, the average energy per electron ion pair, W, has been measured for methane at these same energies.

Air Kerma Rate

The results of development of the national primary standard of air kerma, air kerma rate, exposure, exposure rate and energy flux for X-rays and gamma radiation GET 8-2011 in 2019 are presented according to the recommendations of the ICRU Report No. 90 “Key Data for Ionizing-Radiation Dosimetry: Measurement Standards and Applications”. The following changes are made to the equations for the units determination with the standard: in the field of X-rays, new correction coefficients of the free-air ionization chambers are introduced and the relative standard uncertainty of the average energy to create an ion pair in air is changed; in the field of gamma radiation, the product of the average energy to create an ion pair in air and the electron stopping-power graphite to air ratio for the cavity ionization chambers is changed. More accurate values of the units reproduced by GET 8-2019 are obtained and new metrological characteristics of the standard are stated.

The base-catalyzed rearrangement of arylindenols is a rare example of a suprafacial [1,3]-hydrogen atom transfer. The mechanism has been proposed to proceed via sequential [1,5]-sigmatropic shifts, which occur in a selective sense and avoid an achiral intermediate. A computational analysis using quantum chemistry casts serious doubt on these suggestions: these pathways have enormous activation barriers and in constrast to what is observed experimentally, they overwhelmingly favor a racemic product. Instead we propose that a suprafacial [1,3]-prototopic shift occurs in a two-step deprotonation/reprotonation sequence. This mechanism is favored by 15 kcal mol<sup>-1</sup> over that previously proposed. Most importantly, this is also consistent with stereospecificity since reprotonation occurs rapidly on the same p-face. We have used explicitly-solvated molecular dynamics studies to study the persistence and condensed-phase dynamics of the intermediate ion-pair formed in this reaction. Chirality transfer is the result of a particularly resilient contact ion-pair, held together by electrostatic attraction and a critical NH···p interaction which ensures that this species has an appreciable lifetime even in polar solvents such as DMSO and MeOH.

Combining three features—the high affinity of squaramides toward anions, cooperation in ion pair binding and preorganization of the binding domains in the tripodal platform—led to the effective receptor 2. The lack of at least one of these key elements in the structures of reference receptors 3 and 4 caused a lower affinity towards ion pairs. Receptor 2 was found to form an intramolecular network in wet chloroform, which changed into inorganic–organic associates after contact with ions and allowed salts to be extracted from an aqueous to an organic phase. The disparity in the binding mode of 2 with sulfates and with other monovalent anions led to the selective extraction of extremely hydrated sulfate anions in the presence of more lipophilic salts, thus overcoming the Hofmeister series.

Deuteron Transfer

Rate constants for the proton and deuteron transfer from 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1-nitroethane to cesium n-propoxide in n-propanol have been measured under pseudo-first-order conditions with an excess of base for four temperatures between 5 and 35 °C. Using literature values of the fraction of cesium n-propoxide ion pairs that are dissociated into free ions, separate second-order rate constants for the proton and deuteron transfer to the ion pair and to the free ion have been calculated. The cesium n-propoxide ion pair is about 2.8 times more reactive than the free n-propoxide ion. The primary kinetic isotope effects for the two reactions are the same (kH/kD = 6.1–6.3 at 25 °C) within experimental error. The enthalpy of activation is smaller for the ion-pair reaction and the entropy of activation more negative than for the free-ion reaction. For proton transfer, ΔH±ion pair = 8.3 ± 0.2 kcal mol−1, ΔH±ion = 9.6 ± 1.0 kcal mol−1, ΔS±ion pair = −12.3 ± 0.6 cal mol−1 deg−1, ΔS±ion = −10.1 ± 3.4 cal mol−1 deg−1. The greater reactivity of the ion pair relative to the free ion is interpreted in terms of the weaker solvation shell of the ion pair in the initial state.
