Isolated and Proper Efficiencies in Semi-Infinite Vector Optimization Problems

This paper deals with a nonsmooth semi-infinite multiobjective/vector optimization problem (SIMOP, for short). We first establish necessary and sufficient conditions for (local) strongly isolated solutions and (local) positively properly efficient solutions of an SIMOP. Then, we propose a dual problem to the SIMOP under consideration and examine weak and strong duality relations between them.     

Controlled Generation of 9-Boratriptycene by Lewis Adduct Dissociation: Accessing a Non-Planar Triarylborane

A highly bent triarylborane, 9-boratriptycene, was generated in solution by selective protodeboronation of the corresponding tetra-aryl boron ate complex with the strong Brønsted acid HNTf₂. The iptycene core confers enhanced Lewis acidity to 9-boratriptycene, making it unique in terms of structure and reactivity. We studied the stereoelectronic properties of 9-boratriptycene by quantifying its association with small N- and O-centered Lewis bases, as well as with sterically hindered phosphines. The resultant Lewis adducts exhibited unique structural, spectroscopic, and photophysical properties. Beyond the high pyramidalization of the 9-boratriptycene scaffold and its low reorganization energy upon Lewis base coordination, quantum chemical calculations revealed that the absence of π donation from the triptycene aryl rings to the boron vacant p_z orbital is one of the main reasons for its high Lewis acidity.     

Sufficient conditions for pseudo-Lipschitz property in convex semi-infinite vector optimization problems

This paper is devoted to the study of the pseudo-Lipschitz property of the efficient (Pareto) solution map for the perturbed convex semi-infinite vector optimization problem (CSVO). We establish sufficient conditions for the pseudo-Lipschitz property of the efficient solution map of (CSVO) under continuous perturbations of the right-hand side of the constraints and functional perturbations of the objective function. Examples are given to illustrate the obtained results.     

Thermal Decomposition Kinetics of Some Metal Complexes of 2,3-Hydroxyimino-4-phenyl-6-phenyazo-1-thia-4,5-diazacyclohexa-5-diene

The Ni(II), Cu(II) Co(II) and Zn(II) complexes of 2,3‐hydroxyimino‐4‐phenyl‐6‐phenyazo‐1‐thia‐4,5‐diaza‐ cyclohexa‐5‐diene (H₂L) were synthesized. Thermal behavior of these complexes was studied in dynamic nitrogen atmosphere by TA (thermogravimetric analysis), DTA (differential thermal analysis) and DTG (differential thermal gravimetry) techniques. The reaction order, the activation energies, the entropies, the enthalpies, the free energies, and the pre‐exponential factors of the thermal decomposition reactions were calculated from the thermogravimetric curves. The kinetic analysis of the thermogravimetric data was performed by using several methods such as MacCallum‐Tanner (MT), van Krevelen (vK), Madhusudanan‐Krishnan‐Ninan (MKN), Wanjun‐Yuwen‐Hen‐Cunxin (WYHC), Horowitz‐Metzger (HM) and Coats‐Redfern method (CR) based on the single heating rate. Most appropriate methods were determined for each decomposition step according to the least‐square linear regression. The Ni(II), Cu(II) Co(II) and Zn(II) complexes displayed one‐ or two‐stage decomposition pattern when heating in a dynamic nitrogen atmosphere and metal oxides remained as end products of the complexes. The characterization of the end products of the decomposition was performed by X‐ray diffraction.
