T-violation neutron experiment and polarized3He

An experimental scheme of the spin detailed balance in polarized neutron transmission through a polarized nuclear target is discussed for the T-violation test. The value of the spin detailed balance is estimated by using the data of the scattering amplitudes. The nuclear polarizations of proton,³He and¹³⁹La are discussed for the T-violation experiment.     

Synthesis of 4,5-diaminopyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoline derivatives by annulation of N,N-dialkyl[2-(pyrrol-1-yl)benzylidene]ammonium salts in the presence of an isocyanide

A facile synthetic method for 4,5-diaminopyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoline derivatives has been developed. Treatment of 2-(pyrrol-1-yl)benzaldehydes with secondary amine hydrochloride/NaI/TMSCl/Et₃N in the presence of an isocyano compound leads to the formation of 4-alkyl(or aryl)amino-5-dialkylaminopyrrolo[1,2-a]quinolines.     

A concise route to the right wing of ciguatoxin

A concise route to the HIJKLM-ring fragment 10 of ciguatoxin (CTX) and 51-hydroxyCTX3C was developed in which oxiranyl anion addition and intramolecular carbonyl olefination were utilized as key transformations. The present procedure requires only 23 steps from the I-ring 5, while 35 steps were employed in a previous synthesis of the corresponding right wing 11 of CTX3C. The high efficiency of the present synthesis ensures a supply of 10 for total synthesis and biomedical applications.     

Synthesis of 9-arylamino- and (Z)-9-arylimino-9H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles by reactions of 2-(pyrrol-1-yl)benzaldehydes with aryl amines

Heating mixtures of 2-(pyrrol-1-yl)benzaldehydes and aryl amines under argon afforded 9-arylamino-9H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles, via cyclization of the resulting 2-(pyrrol-1-yl)benzaldimine intermediates. Heating in the presence of oxygen afforded (Z)-9-arylimino-9H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]indoles, which were successfully hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid to give pyrrolo[1,2-a]indol-9-ones.     

Potentiometric determination of stability constants of inorganic cyclophosphate complexes with copper(II), cadmium(II) and lead(II) ions

The stability constants of the complexes of cyclophosphate anions and copper(II), cadmium(II) and lead(II) ions were determined by potentiometry with the use of ion-selective electrodes. For each metal ion, the stability constant of the 1:1 complex increases linearly with the charge on the phosphate ion. For the same cyclophosphate ion, the stability constants also increase with increase in the crystal radii of the cation, i.e. in the order: Cu²⁺ < Cd²⁺ < Pb²⁺. These results suggest that the complex formed is a typical outer-sphere type based on electrostatic forces.

Initial step of anthracene‐sensitized photoacid generation from diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate in an epoxy matrix studied by steady‐state and laser‐flash photolyses

The anthracene‐sensitized photodecomposition of diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate was studied in an epoxy matrix. From steady‐state photolysis, the generation of protons, which are considered to be the actual initiators of the polymerization of epoxides, was confirmed. In addition, 9‐phenylanthracene was detected as a main product from anthracene. From time‐resolved laser‐flash photolysis, a broad absorption band with a peak at about 500 nm was observed that was thought to be due to the precursor of 9‐phenylanthracene. On the basis of these results, we propose electron transfer from anthracene in the excited singlet state to the diphenyliodonium cation as the initial step of photoacid generation. This process is followed by fast chemical reactions, which generate 9‐phenylanthracene and protons, and back electron transfer from the diphenyliodine radical to the anthracene cation radical. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

On the theory of Pfaffians based on exponential maps in exterior algebras

Based on the relation of exponential maps and interior products in exterior algebras, some formulas of Pfaffians, including expansion formulas and the Cayley-Jacobi formula for determinants of alternating matrices, are deduced with new proofs. As an application, Pfaffian powers of alternating bilinear forms [O. Loos, Discriminant algebras and adjoints of quadratic forms, Beiträge Algebra Geom. 38 (1997) 33-72] are interpreted in terms of exponential maps in algebras of alternating multi-linear forms.     

Spin Groups Over a Commutative Ring and the Associated Root Data

 Usual constructions of spin and Clifford groups, restricted to the case where the basic quadratic spaces is hyperbolic, are examined as those of group schemes over a commutative ring. Not surprisingly they yield indeed smooth and reductive group schemes, but the proof involves a lot of calculation and uses a connection with Jordan pairs. Maximal tori and their associated root data are also constructed explicitly. Received November 6, 2001; in revised form September 5, 2002 Published online May 9, 2003
