Novel Stereoselective Phase Transfer Catalytic Synthesis and Some Applications of ( E )-2-Chlorovinylthioarenes and Hetarenes

A novel two-step method for the preparation of ( E )-2-chlorovinylthioarenes (or hetarenes) from thiols and 1,1,2-trichloroethane in the phase transfer catalytic systems solid K 2 CO 3 /solid KI/18-crown-6/xylene and solid KOH/18-crown-6/toluene has been developed. ( E )-2-chlorovinylthioarenes were isolated in yields up to 98%. Utilization of ( E )-2-chlorovinylthioarenes in the Heck and Stille reactions has been shown.     

Asymptotically Constant Solutions of Functional Difference Systems

We consider the functional difference system ( A ) j x i ( n )= f i ( n ; X ), 1 h i h k , where X =( x 1 ,…, x k ) and f 1 (·; X ),…, f k (·; X ) are real-valued functionals of X , which may depend quite arbitrarily on values of X ( l ) for multiple values of l ] Z . We give sufficient conditions for ( A ) to have solutions that approach specified constant vectors as n M X . Some of the results guarantee only that the solutions are defined for n sufficiently large, while others are global. The proof of the main theorem is based on the Schauder-Tychonoff theorem. Applications to specific quasi-linear systems are included.     

On ω-limit Sets of Triangular Maps on the Unit Cube

We consider Sturm–Liouville eigenvalue problems of second order with arbitary seperated boundary conditions and perform a suitabl discretization of them. The obtained discrete Sturm–Liouville eigenvalue problems are examined and the asymptotic behavior of their eigenvalue as the norm of the partition tends to zero is investigated.     

The Different,but Interesting Behaviors of Benzyl Systems in the Willgerodt-Kindler Reaction under Solvent-Free Conditions

On the benzyl system, bearing various functional groups, have been carried out the Willgerodt-Kindler reaction to obtain thiobenzmorpholide ( 1 ). The reactions, under solvent-free conditions, were performed in both classical (reflux, room temperature) and nonclassical (microwave) conditions to attempt our elucidation of the reactions pathways. Unlike benzylamine and benzyl mercaptan, benzyl halides give poor result due to the type of amine. The experimental results suggest that the proposed reaction pathway involves the oxidation coupling of benzylic substrates, followed by a thiolation step and an attack of the amine on the thiolated product to give ( 1 ).     

Probabilistic interpretation of a system of quasilinear parabolic PDEs

Using a forward–backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDE) associated to a transmutation process driven by a finite sequence of Poisson processes, we obtain a probabilistic interpretation for a non-degenerate system of quasilinear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs). The novetly is that the linear second order differential operator is different on each line of the system.     

Controllability of Nonsmooth Discrete Systems with Delay

This paper is concerned with a study of local controllability to discrete inclusions with delay. The sufficient conditions for relative and complete local controllability are obtained on the base of using Mordukhovich's nonsmooth constructions.     

Linguistic cost-sensitive learning of genetic fuzzy classifiers for imprecise data

Cost-sensitive classification is based on a set of weights defining the expected cost of misclassifying an object. In this paper, a Genetic Fuzzy Classifier, which is able to extract fuzzy rules from interval or fuzzy valued data, is extended to this type of classification. This extension consists in enclosing the estimation of the expected misclassification risk of a classifier, when assessed on low quality data, in an interval or a fuzzy number. A cooperative-competitive genetic algorithm searches for the knowledge base whose fitness is primal with respect to a precedence relation between the values of this interval or fuzzy valued risk. In addition to this, the numerical estimation of this risk depends on the entrywise product of cost and confusion matrices. These have been, in turn, generalized to vague data. The flexible assignment of values to the cost function is also tackled, owing to the fact that the use of linguistic terms in the definition of the misclassification cost is allowed.     

Evaluation of SARs for the prediction of skin irritation/corrosion potential–structural inclusion rules in the BfR decision support system†

The German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR) has developed a Decision Support System (DSS) to assess certain hazardous properties of pure chemicals, including skin and eye irritation/corrosion. The BfR–DSS is a rule-based system that could be used for the regulatory classification of chemicals in the European Union. The system is based on the combined use of two predictive approaches: exclusion rules based on physicochemical cut-off values to identify chemicals that do not exhibit a certain hazard (e.g., skin irritation/corrosion), and inclusion rules based on structural alerts to identify chemicals that do show a particular toxic potential. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the structural inclusion rules implemented in the BfR–DSS for the prediction of skin irritation and corrosion. The following assessments were performed: (a) a confirmation of the structural rules by rederiving them from the original training set (1358 substances), and (b) an external validation by using a test set of 200 chemicals not used in the derivation of the rules. It was found as a result that the test data set did not match the training set relative to the inclusion of structural alerts associated with skin irritation/corrosion, albeit some skin irritants were in the test set.
