Beiträge zur Chemie der Alkylverbindungen von Übergangsmetallen. XLIV. Tetrakis(alkoxycarbonylmethyl)titan-Verbindungen

Contributions to the Chemistry of Transition Metal Alkyl Compounds. XLIII. Tetrakis(alkoxycarbonylmethyl)titanium Compounds Organotitanium(IV) compounds of the type (ROCOCH₂)₄Ti (R ? C₂H₅, i-C₃H₇, t-C₄H₉, C₆H₅, C₆H₅CH₂) were obtained by reactions of ROCOCH₂Li derivatives with TiCl₄ at low temperature. The compounds which decompose only above 90°C were characterized by the hydrolysis products, anaerobic reactions with iodine, and the i.r. spectra. The bond conditions are discussed.     

On the determination of polarity parameters of silica by means of solvatochromic probe dyes

Empirical solvent parameters of silica surfaces are determined by means of solvatochromic dyes, e.g., Cu(tmen) (acac)⁺ ClO ₄ ^– /B(C₆H₅) ₄ ^– , Fe(phen)₂(CN)₂, and Michlers Ketone dissolved in 1,2-dichloroethane or cyclohexane. The values obtained by UV/VIS-measurements are compared with both the polarity scales of Kamlet and Taft and with Gutmann's donor and acceptor numbers. Kamlet and Taft's -parameter (the hydrogen-bond donation capacity of a solvent) is determined independently by means of salicylideneaniline. The ^* of silica is determined using 5-N,N-dimethylamino-5-nitro-2,2-bithiophene and the complex of tetracyanoethylene with Michlers Ketone, respectively. Further on the reliabilities of the obtained Kamlet-Taft parameters , , and ^* are checked by comparism with experimental and calculated values of theE _T(30)-parameter of silica by means of multi-parameter regression analysis. The surface properties of silica are influenced mainly by HBD-properties (75%) and dipolarity/polarizability ^* (20%), but hardly by the HBA-properties (<5%). UV/VIS-measurements were carried out in a special equipment with glass fiber optics, A drawing of the apparatus is given.     

Die Strommer-Zykliden des Flaggenraumes

According to H. BRAUNER a flag space is a three-dimensional affine space with an absolute {,f,F}, wheref is a line in the plane of infinity andF a point onf. A cyclide is a surface of order 4 that intersects only atf. A STROMMER-cyclide is a cyclide generated by translation of a circle in an isotropic plane. In this paper we proof that all STROMMER-cyclides can be generated by translation of an isotropic circle along a divergent Newton-parabola or a conic in a full isotropic plane. We give normal-forms and CAD-pictures of these surfaces. Finaly some geometrical results about STROMMER-cyclides are developed.

On locally optimal nonparametric tests

Summary There is an abundancy of problems in which no parametric model realistically describes the situation and in which, accordingly, we have to resort to nonparametric methods. As the numerical problems connected with nonparametric tests are becoming less and less important, rank tests, permutation tests and the like are becoming more and more part of the standard armatory of applied statisticians. The lack of tabulated critical values, for instance, should no longer be a serious objection against the use of permutation tests in practice; cf. Edgington (1987).The rationale underlying permutation and rank tests has been outlined in quite a number of text books and papers; cf. Fraser (1957), Lehmann (1959), Hájek-Sidák (1967) or Witting (1970). Roughly speaking, permutation tests are constructibel if the data can be condensed by means of a sufficient and complete statistic allowing for the proper kind of conditioning. Rank tests arise if the underlying problem is invariant with respect to (w.r.t.) a large group of transformations which leads to a maximal invariant statistic consisting of (signed) ranks.Most practical nonparametric problems, however, are too complex to be tractable by just one of those approaches. Many of them, however, can be handled by a combination of both techniques. In this paper we outline the logic underlying that combined reduction method and apply it to construct locally most powerful tests. Moreover, we discuss what we label Hoeffding's transfer problem, i.e. the uniformity aspect of locally most powerful tests with respect to the starting point at the boundary. We are concentrating on the discussion of the nonparametric two-sample location and scale problem. Further important problems are mentioned in Section III.This is a written account of an invited lecture delivered by the third author on occasion of the 14th Symposium über Operations Research, Ulm, September 6–8, 1989.

Ein Algorithmus zur Lösung eines Verteilungsproblems

Zusammenfassung Bei der Lastverteilung eines Elektrizitätsversorgungsunternehmens besteht die Möglichkeit, durch eine Tonfrequenzrundsteueranlage die Last optimal aufzuteilen. Eine Zielsetzung besteht darin, durch Zu- und Wegschalten von Verbrauchergruppen die Lastspitze möglichst klein zu halten. Dabei muß allerdings jedem Verbraucher in einem gewissen Zeitraum eine gewisse Einschaltdauer garantiert sein. Der zur Lösung herangezogene Algorithmus basiert im wesentlichen auf dem Prinzip der dynamischen Optimierung und der Idee von Branch- and-Bound-Verfahren.

Summary One aim of electric load management is to keep load peaks low by switching on and off water heaters of different groups of customers. There is a restriction that those heaters have to be switched on within a certain period of time for some fixed time. The optimal switching strategy for this distribution problem is computed using dynamic programming and the idea of branch and bound methods.

     

1H-NMR-spektroskopische Analyse von 2-Chlor-1.3.2-dioxarsolan

The¹H-NMR-spectral data of 2-chloro-1.3.2-dioxarsolane are presented and discussed. The protons of the methylene groups form in concentrated solutions by rapide chlorine exchange anAAAA spin system. In dilute solutions the protons form anAABB spin system, which is changed to anAAAA system by addition of chlorine ions.The vicinal H–C–C–H-coupling constants indicate a twist-envelope conformation.

Resonance type dielectric behavior in solids

Experimental evidence now indicates that the microwave dielectric properties of solids are strongly influenced by the infrared active phonon modes. The “real dielectric constant”, ε′, of polar materials, i. e. those in which ?′ is noticeably greater than the square of the optical index of refraction, exhibits a temperature dependence dominated by the change of integrated infrared absorption. The microwave dielectric loss, ?″, is influenced by the low frequency “tail” of the infrared resonance type absorption, as may be inferred from the monotonic increase with temperature and proportionality to frequency. It is suggested that the one dimensional coupling of the electric field to the acoustic modes of a dielectric solid would lead to additional low frequency “background” dielectric losses which are essentially frequency independent, in agreement with experimental observations.     

Approximations of inventory models

Summary A general procedure is presented for constructing approximations of discrete review single product dynamic inventory models. Bounds are derived for the approximations and compared with the ones ofHinderer [1978],Whitt [1978] for the approximation of a general dynamic program. Good order-policies are constructed. Finally, conditions are given under which the sequence of bounds associated with a sequence of approximating models converges to zero.

Zusammenfassung Es wird ein allgemeines Verfahren zur Approximation periodisch inspizierter dynamischer Ein-Produkt-Lagerhaltungsmodelle betrachtet. Dazu werden Fehlerschranken gegeben. Diese werden verglichen mit denen vonHinderer [1978],Whitt [1978] für ein allgemeines dynamisches Entscheidungsmodell. Außerdem werden gute Bestellpolitiken konstruiert und hinreichende Bedingungen gegeben, unter denen die Fehlerschranken einer Folge von approximierenden Modellen gegen Null konvergiert.

     

Periodic,multiplicative number-theoretical functions

D. Leitmann andD. Wolke [3] proved that multiplicative functions, which are restrictions of continuous, periodic functionsF: with irrational period, are constant equal to 0 or 1. In this note a simpler proof for this result is given.
