T-duality for string in Hořava–Lifshitz gravity

We continue our study of the Lorentz-breaking string theories. These theories are defined as string theory with modified Hamiltonian constraint which breaks the Lorentz symmetry of target space-time. We analyze the properties of this theory in the target space-time that possesses isometry along one direction. We also derive the T-duality rules for Lorentz-breaking string theories and show that they are the same as that of Buscher’s T-duality for the relativistic strings.     

Electron Ionization Mass Spectra of Organophosphorus Compounds. Part III: Mass Spectrometric Fragmentation of Diethyl Spiro[Pyrimidino[5,3′][1,2]Oxazole] Phosphonate,Diethyl (Oxazolo[5,4-D]Pyrimidine-4,6-Dione)Phosphonate,and Diethyl (Pyrimidino[4,5-B][1,4]Oxazine)Phosphonate Derivatives

Abstract

Fragmentation pathways of 14 organophosphorus compounds derived from diethyl spiro[pyrimidino[5,3][1,2]oxazole] phosphonates, diethyl (oxazolo[5,4-d]pyrimidine-4,6-dione)phosphonates, and diethyl (pyrimidino[4,5-b][1,4] oxazine)phosphonates were investigated by electron impact mass spectrometry (EI-MS). The intensity of the recorded molecular ion peaks showed various values depending on the nature of the compounds. Characteristic fragment ions were formed by successive loss of simple functional groups followed by decomposition of heterocycles connected to pyrimidine rings.     

SOME REACTIONS OF 3-AMINO-2-CARBOETHOXY-4,6-DIMETHYLTHIENO[2,3-b]-PYRIDINE. SYNTHESIS OF SOME NEW THIENOPYRIDOPYRIMIDINES

Abstract

Thienopyridine oxazinone (1) has been prepared and explored as a precursor by its reaction with some reagents namely, ammonium acetate, aliphatic amines, aromatic amines, hydrazine hydrate, thiosemicarbazide, and ethyl glycinate to give pyridothienopyrimidines (11-VII). The pyrimidinone compound (11) was converted to the 4-chloro derivative (X) by its reaction with excess POCl₃ Interaction of the 4-chlorocompound (X) with some reagents namely, hydrazine hydrate, methyl amine, aniline, sodium thiophenolate, ethyl glycinate, thiosemicarbazide and thiourea, yielded pyridothieno-pyrimidine derivatives (XI-XVII) substituted at 4-position, respectively.     

Reaction of Dimethyl Acetylenedicarboxylate With 2-Mercaptoperimidine and 2-Mercaptobenzimidazole

A mixture of equimolar quantities of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate ( 2 ) with either 2-mercaptoperimidine ( 1 ) or 2-mercaptobenzimidazole ( 5 ) was heated in absolute benzene in the presence of triphenylphosphine as a catalyst under reflux conditions for 1 h (the reaction was monitored by TLC until the consumption of the starting materials). The solvent was concentrated under vacuum and the residue was subjected to chromatographic plates using toluene-ethylacetate (2:1) as an eluent. The products in each reaction were separated as two migrating zones. Each zone was removed from the plate and recrystallized from the appropriate solvent. The products of the first reaction are 10-methoxy-11-oxo-11H-8-thia-7,11a-diaza-benzo[de]anthracene-9-carboxylic acid methyl ester ( 3 ) and 8-thia-7,10a-diaza-cyclopenta[a]phenalene-9,10-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester ( 4 ), while the products of the second reaction are 3-methoxy-4-oxo-4H-1-thia-4a,9-diaza-fluorene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester ( 10 ) and benzo[4, 5]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-2,3-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester ( 11 ). The mechanisms of the observed reactions are suggested.     

Photo Polymerized Interpenetrating Polymer Network of Poly(antimony acrylate) and Poly(arsenic acrylate): Synthesis and Characterization

A series of IPN based on poly(antimony acrylate) and poly(arsenic acrylate) have been synthesized by a sequential mode of synthesis. Formation of complex based on “polymer solvent” method reflects the contraction of the polymer coils by determining the value of mutual interaction constant (k_AB) in different solvents such as dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) (k_AB=0.60); dimethylformamide (DMF) (k_AB=0.42); dioxane (k_AB=0.26) predicting weak Vander Waal interaction. The scanning electron microscopy reveals dual phase morphology of both metal acrylates. The infrared spectrum indicates characteristic frequencies of (>C?O) at 1730 cm^?1,thus giving structural evidence for IPN. The properties namely percentage swelling, average molecular weight between crosslinks(M_c),Young's modulus, increases with concentrations of linear polymer(polyantimony acrylate) and initiator (benzoyl peroxide). However, it decreases with concentrations of monomer (arsenic acrylate) and crosslinker (divinyl benzene).The value of activation energy calculated from thermo gravimetric analysis is 15 KJ/mol.     

Quantum dynamics of heavy light heavy reactions: Application to (F + CH4 → FCH3 + H) reaction

We apply the time-dependent theory to the collinear exchange reaction F + CH₄ → FCH₃ + H. We have performed detailed calculations on two-dimensional potential surfaces representing the ground electronic potentials of the collinear F + CH₄ → FCH₃ + H reaction, at incident energies. Transmission coefficients range from zero to unity, depending upon the incident energy. Normal modes of vibrations are displayed along the reaction path.     

Formulation of Risperidone as Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery System in Form of Effervescent Tablets

Risperidone is an atypical antipsychotic drug used to treat schizophrenia. This study aims to formulate risperidone as effervescent tablets to improve patient compliance. Different nanoemulsion combinations were loaded with risperidone to improve its poor water solubility then adsorbed on Aeroperl. The formula showing highest drug dissolution was formulated as effervescent tablets. Factorial design was applied for different tablet formulation variables and the prepared formulae were tested for different criteria in comparison with their corresponding formulae containing drug without nanoemulsion formulation. Statistical analysis was used to determine the most desirable tablet formula considering its Carr index, effervescence time, and drug release.
