1,1 '-dimethyl-4,4 '-(propane-1,3-diyl)-dipyridinium tetrabromidocadmate(II)

In the cation of the title compound, (C15H20N2)[CdBr4], the dihedral angle between the two pyridine rings is 70.85 (5)degrees. An intermolecular pi-pi interaction between the pyridine rings [centroid - centroid distance = 3.900 (4) angstrom] is observed. The Cd-II atom has a distorted tetrahedral coordination.

DILUTE SOLUTION PROPERTIES OF RING-SHAPED POLYSTYRENE II. THE SECOND VIRIAL COEFFICIENTS

Using a low angle laser light scattering photometer (LALLS) the second virial coefficients(A_2) of ring-shaped and linear polystyrene (RPS and LPS) samples were determined in both toluene and butanone solutions. The A_2 of RPS in the good solvent (toluene) is smaller than that of LPS with the same molecular weight, but in the poor solvent (butanone) these two are very close. For RPS in the molecular weight range of 4×10~4——2.2×10~5, we haveA_(2r)=1.28×10~(-2)M_w~(-0.283) (Toluene 25℃) and A_(2r)=5.06×10~(-2...
