Total synthesis of the marine alkaloid halitulin

The structure of the strongly cytotoxic marine alkaloid halitulin (1) has been confirmed by total synthesis and its absolute configuration determined as (15S). The synthesis follows a strategy previously reported by one of us and uses an efficient preparation of the quinoline-7,8-diol unit by modified Baeyer-Villiger and Skraup reactions. The O-benzyl protecting groups were removed in the last step of the synthesis by transfer hydrogenolysis without concomitant reduction of the quinoline ring. The method can be applied for the synthesis of halitulin analogues.

Coulombic Basis for Relative Hydrogen-Bonding Basicities and Conformational Energies of Tertiary Amine Oxides and Phosphine Oxides

The structures, energies, and natural atomic charges of 2-dimethylaminophenol oxide, 2-Me₂N-(O)C₆H₄OH, and 2-dimethylphosphinylphenol, 2-Me₂P(O)C₆H₄OH, in three different conformations were computed at the ab initio MP2/6-31G* level. Computed natural charges indicate distributions of electron density in amine oxides and phosphine oxides that are quite different from what is normally assumed on the basis of the formal charges in the usual representations of these compounds. The charges on nitrogen and phosphorus in these compounds are typically computed to be approximately zero on nitrogen and +2 on phosphorus, and the oxygen is considerably more negative in the phosphine oxide than in the amino oxide. Electronegativity differences thus play a larger role and formal charges a smaller one in determining atomic charges in these compounds than is generally believed. Despite the more negative oxygen in phosphine oxides, amine oxides are computed to be considerably more basic when participating in hydrogen bonding. Calculations treating the computed natural charges on these six conformations as point charges for classical approximations of the coulombic energies support the idea that the quantum mechanically computed relative energies are largely determined by coulombic interactions.     

空间机器人组装超大型结构的动力学分析北大核心CSCD

超大型航天结构具有超大柔性、超低固有频率的特点,空间机器人在轨组装时应尽可能避免激起超大型结构的柔性振动.空间机器人组装超大型结构模块的过程分成抓捕阶段、位姿调整与稳定阶段、安装阶段和爬行阶段.通过对安装阶段的动力学与控制研究,提出共线安装的轨迹规划方法,有效避免了柔性结构振动.首先,采用自然坐标法和绝对节点坐标法建立主结构-空间机器人-待组装结构的在轨组装系统动力学模型.然后,将共线安装的要求转化为空间机器人的轨迹规划约束,要求空间机器人质心到主结构/待组装结构的距离保持不变,实现共线安装的轨迹规划.数值仿真表明:提出的组装方法在组装过程中可有效避免超大型结构的横向运动,降低夹持力矩.最后,分析了系统参数对组装过程动力学响应的影响,为超大型航天器的在轨组装提供了参考.     

非合作博弈两阶段生产系统的效率评价——基于自由处置和管理处置的视角

为了识别被动适应环境和采取创新技术主动适应环境的生产系统的效率差异,基于主从非合作框架和决策者的期望需求,分别从自由处置和管理处置的视角建立了两阶段生产系统效率评价模型,应用模型对2017年中国24省市工业生产系统效率进行了分析。结果表明:两种环境适应策略下,中国24个省市工业生产的两个子系统的效率均值都较高,主要分布在中国东部。24省市在自由处置模式下的技术差距较小,管理处置模式下的技术差距较大。24省市技术创新的重点在于减少工业废水和工业废气的排放,但是对一般工业固体废物减量化的重视程度不足。各省市工业固体废物处理无效的根源包括固体废物减量化无效、固体废物再利用和固体废物处置同时无效,以及混合无效三种方式。     

The diagnonal multivariate natural exponential families and their classification

A natural exponential family (NEF)F in ? ⁿ ,n>1, is said to be diagonal if there existn functions,a ₁,...,a _n , on some intervals of ?, such that the covariance matrixV _F (m) ofF has diagonal (a ₁(m ₁),...,a _n (m _n )), for allm=(m ₁,...,m _n ) in the mean domain ofF. The familyF is also said to be irreducible if it is not the product of two independent NEFs in ? ^k and ? ^n-k , for somek=1,...,n?1. This paper shows that there are only six types of irreducible diagonal NEFs in ? ⁿ , that we call normal, Poisson, multinomial, negative multinomial, gamma, and hybrid. These types, with the exception of the latter two, correspond to distributions well established in the literature. This study is motivated by the following question: IfF is an NEF in ? ⁿ , under what conditions is its projectionp(F) in ? ^k , underp(x ₁,...,x _n )∶=(x ₁,...,x _k ),k=1,...,n?1, still an NEF in ? ^k ? The answer turns out to be rather predictable. It is the case if, and only if, the principalk×k submatrix ofV _F (m ₁,...,m _n ) does not depend on (m _k+1,...,m _n ).     

Spectrum of positive entropy multidimensional dynamical systems with a mixed time

It is shown that if an abelian countable group is such that is a finite group and every aperiodic positive entropy action of on a Lebesgue probability space has a countable Haar spectrum in the subspace , where denotes the Pinsker -
algebra of , then every aperiodic positive entropy action of on has the same property. A positive answer to the question of J.P. Thouvenot is obtained as a corollary.

     

The frequency-domain method reveals the dimeric structure of Na,K-ATPase

Lucifer yellow and lissamine rhodamine sulfonyl hydrazine were used as the donor and the receptor, respectively, for Förster energy transfer measurements to determine the location of the subunit in the native Na,K-ATPase from pig kidney. It was found that (1) the subunits are located in one functional complex, i.e., the dimer ()₂ appears to be the functional complex of Na,K-ATPase, and (2) the subunits in the functional enzyme complex in the membrane are not located next to each other but are rather well separated. The distance between fluorophores covalently attached to the subunits was found to be 5.3 nm.     

Cocycle d'Euler etK2

In this paper we construct a canonical 2-cocycle on the groupP SL(2,k) with values in the Witt groupW(k) of the fieldk. This allows us to produce anatural homomorphism :H ₂(SL(2,k); Z)I ²(k), whereI ²(k) is the square of the fundamental ideal. We prove that this homomorphism is in fact a lift of Milnor's symbol.
