Synthesis of Silicon-Functionalized Dimethylsilyl Enol Ethers from Ketones

Symmetrical dimethylsilyl bis-enol ethers are obtained in good yield by reaction of ketones with dichlorodimethylsilane in the presence of triethylamine and sodium iodide. Reaction of ketones with N, N - diethylaminodimethylchlorosilane in the presence of triethylamine and sodium iodide followed by subsequent conversions provides a useful synthesis of silicon-functionalized dimethylsilyl enol ethers including unsymmetrical dimethylsilyl bis-enol ethers     

Finite-difference approach for the high-precision analysis of rotating-frame diffusion images

A finite-difference approach has been developed for precisely determining diffusion coefficient and T₁ relaxation time in fluid samples analyzed by magnetization-grating rotating-frame imaging (MAGROFI) with either a surface coil or a toroid cavity detector (TCD). This approach avoids shortcomings of phenomenologically based approximations, such as neglect of sample geometries with singularities at the confines of the sample volume, and accounts for the diffusive edge enhancement observed in fluid imaging. Error limits are discussed. The new method has been applied to the determination of the self-diffusion coefficient for MAGROFI experiments using TCDs filled with acetone.     

An improved error bound for a finite element approximation of a model for phase separation of a multi-component alloy

Using the approach of Rulla (1996 SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 33, 68-87)for analysing the time discretization error and assuming moreregularity on the initial data, we improve on the error boundderived by Barrett and Blowey (1996 IMA J. Numer. Anal. 16,257-287) for a fully practical piecewise linear finite elementapproximation with a backward Euler time discretization of amodel for phase separation of a multi-component alloy.
