Solid phase synthesis of N-aminodipeptides in high optical purity

N-Aminodipeptide derivatives can be easily prepared with high optical purity on solid phase via a Mitsunobu protocol between a solid supported α-hydroxyacid and a free phthaloylated α-Z-N-aminohydrazide.     

Application of a fusion model using collective variables and microscopically related mass parameters

A calculation of nucleus-nucleus collisions is presented, using a model which starts from a TDHF equation and leads to classical equations of motion for a set of four collective variables. Restricting to axial symmetry and assuming the liquid drop mass formula to hold, a differential equation is derived, which describes nuclear deformations and energies and is used to construct a potential energy surface for the collective variables. The nuclear deformations are obtained without the need of shape parameters. The equations of motion for the collective variables are solved numerically.     

Untersuchungen über die photometrische Bestimmung von Tantal mit Pyrogallol

The optimum conditions for the photometric determination of tantalum with pyrogallol in sulphuric acid solution at 405 nm have been elaborated. The method has been checked statistically.     

Rational approximation of vertical segments

In many applications, observations are prone to imprecise measurements. When constructing a model based on such data, an approximation rather than an interpolation approach is needed. Very often a least squares approximation is used. Here we follow a different approach. A natural way for dealing with uncertainty in the data is by means of an uncertainty interval. We assume that the uncertainty in the independent variables is negligible and that for each observation an uncertainty interval can be given which contains the (unknown) exact value. To approximate such data we look for functions which intersect all uncertainty intervals. In the past this problem has been studied for polynomials, or more generally for functions which are linear in the unknown coefficients. Here we study the problem for a particular class of functions which are nonlinear in the unknown coefficients, namely rational functions. We show how to reduce the problem to a quadratic programming problem with a strictly convex objective function, yielding a unique rational function which intersects all uncertainty intervals and satisfies some additional properties. Compared to rational least squares approximation which reduces to a nonlinear optimization problem where the objective function may have many local minima, this makes the new approach attractive.     

Ein Radioimmunoassay zur simultanen Bestimmung von T3 und T4 im Blutserum mit Hilfe kleiner Ionenaustauschers?ulen

Zusammenfassung Eine radioimmunologische Methode zur simultanen Bestimmung der beiden Schilddrüsenhormone T₃ und T₄ im Blutserum wird beschrieben. Die Abtrennung der Hormone von den Serumproteinen, die Reaktion mit dem Antiserum und die bound-free-Trennung erfolgen auf kleinen lonenaustauschersäulen. Als Säulenfüllung dient ein Mischbettaustauscher, bestehend aus QAE- und SP-Sephadex. Die Analysenergebnisse sind mit der G-25 Säulenmethode vergleichbar. Der Materialaufwand bei Einmalsäulen kann durch die Verwendung des beschriebenen Ionenaustauschers stark gesenkt werden.Herrn a.o. Univ.-Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr. techn. Wladimir Limontschew zum 60.
