The structure of 11[alpha]-hydroxycon-1,4-dienine-3-one monohydrate

C22H31NO2.H2 O, M r = 359" 5, orthorhombic,P2~212 ~, a= 10.032 (1), b= 11.186 (1), C = 17.980 (1)/~,, U= 2017.48/~3, Z = 4, D x = 1.276 Mg m -a, 2(Cu Kct) = 1.5418/~, # = 0.69 mm -~,F(000) = 784, T = 293 K. Final R = 0.05 for 1972 unique reflections with I > 3o(/). Ring A is planar, and rings B and C adopt a chair conformation. Rings D and E are envelopes, with C(14) and C(20) displaced from their respective ring planes by 0-616 (2) and 0.648 (3)/~. The A/B ring junction is quasi-trans,whilst ring systems B/C and C/D are trans fused about the bonds C(8)-C(9) and C(13)-C(14) respectively.The D/E junction shows cis fusion.

Dissimilar friction stir welding between aluminum alloy and magnesium alloy at a low rotational speed

A sound weld was obtained between 2024-T3 Al alloy and AZ31B-O Mg alloy dissimilar metal plates of 5 mm thickness, at a rotational speed of 300 rev min(-1) and at a welding speed of 50 mm min(-1). One of the parameter studied was, the effect of interface offset variation, on the quality and properties of the welded samples and on the thickness of intermetallic layer formed in the welded samples. The intermetallic layer at the midst of the weld volume contains intermetallic compounds Al12Mg17 and Al3Mg2. Highest tensile strength of 106.86 MPa, corresponding tensile joint efficiency of 44.52% and corresponding elongation 1.33% were obtained for the tensile sample, with interface offset of 0.66 mm from zero interface offset in retreating side and with approximate least intermetallic thickness of 1.2 mu m. Dissimilar friction stir welded joint samples had failed completely in brittle fracture mode; the position of tensile fracture was located at the midst of intermetallic layer, which had maximum hardness and minimum ductility. The nano hardness values fluctuate in the weld nugget owing to dynamic recrystallization of alloy materials and formation of brittle intermetallic compounds of alloy materials in the weld nugget; maximum hardness of 10.74 GPa occurred for the sample with least intermetallic thickness of 1.2 mu m.
