Polymerization of vinyl monomers is promoted by thianthrene cation radical as a part of our research concerning the reactions of various agents with readily isolable, yet highly reactive species and elucidate the biological activity. Thianthrene cation radical initiated the homopolymerization and copolymerization of styrene and ethyl vinyl ether. The polymerization yields decreased as the concentration of phenylacetylene or diphenylethylene increased. Such polymereization by cationic thianthrene radical could provide some clues for the reaction in living animals. Comments on possible polymerization mechanisms were suggested.

Reactions of arenealdehyde 2-pyridylhydrazones (1) with thianthrene cation radical ($Th^{+·}$) and tris(2,4-dibromophenyl)aminium hexachloroantimonate ($Ar_3N^{+·}SbCl_6^-$) were investigated. The major product was switched depending on the cation radical being used. That is, s-triazolo[4,3-α]pyridines (2), an intramolecular cyclization product, and 1-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazoles (3), an intermolecular cycloaddition product, were obtained as a major product when reacted with $Th^{+·}$ and $Ar_3N^{+·}$, respectively in nitrile solvents. The plausible mechanisms are proposed based on both the reduction potentials of $Th^{+·}$ and $Ar_3N^{+·}$ and control experiments.

Chemical and thermal characteristics of cation exchange resins were examined after irradiation of gamma rays. The degradation of cation exchange resins was mainly observed at doses of up to 500 kGy, whereas the balance between degradation and cross-linking reactions was sustained at 700 kGy. While the carbon content decreased significantly up to a maximum dose of 500 kGy, it showed an increase at higher doses. Conversely, the oxygen content exhibited a decrease in contrast to the carbon content. The continuous reduction in sulfur content was attributed to the decomposition of sulfonic groups. Gamma-ray irradiation caused a decrease in the initiation temperature of sulfonic groups and PS-DVB, but unlike the chemical properties of cation exchange resins due to gamma-ray irradiation, the thermal properties of resins remained unaffected.

The structures of 1-fluorosilatrane and the silatranyl cation were calculated by Hartree-Fock (HF), Mofller-Plesset second order (MP2), and various density functional theory (DFT) methods using many different basis sets, demonstrating that the Si-N bonds in two species are quite different. The N${\rightarrow}$Si bond distance of 1-fluorosilatrane from the hybrid DFT calculations $({\sim}2.32{\AA})$ using the Perdew-Wang correlation functional agrees with the gas phase experimental value $(2.324{\AA})$, while other functionals yield larger distances. The MP2 bond distance (2.287${\AA}$ with 6-311$G^{\ast}$) is shorter, and the HF one (2.544 ${\AA}$ with 6-311$G^{\ast}$) larger than those of DFT calculations. The MP2 bond distance is in good agreement with experiment indicating that the electron correlations are crucial for the correct description of the N${\rightarrow}$Si interaction. The silatranyl cation is a stable local minimum on the potential energy surface in all methods employed suggesting that the cation could be a reaction intermediate. The Si-N bond length for the cation is about 1.87 ${\AA}$ for all calculations tested implying that the Si-N bond is mainly conventional. Bonding characteristics of the Si-N bond in two species derived from the natural bond orbital analysis support the above argument based on calculated bond lengths.

$LiNi_{1-y}M_{y}O_{2}(M=Zn^{2+},\;Al^{3+},\;and\;Ti^{4+},\;0.000\{\le}y{\le}0.100)$ were synthesized by the combustion method by calcining in $O_{2}$ stream at $750^{\circ}C$ for 36 h. XRD analyses, observation by FE-SEM and measurement of the variation of discharge capacity with the number of cycles were carried out. The composition $LiNi_{0.99}M_{0.01}O_{2}(M=Zn^{2+},\;Al^{3+},\;and\;Ti^{4+})$ of all the compositions showed relatively good electrochemical properties. $LiNi_{0.99}M_{0.01}O_{2}$ exhibited poor crystallinity and $LiNi_{0.99}M_{0.01}O_{2}$ showed the cation mixing of large fraction. $LiNi_{0.99}M_{0.01}O_{2}$ with improved cycling performance showed good crystallinity and the cation mixing of small fraction.
