The 5v 3 bands of 18O enriched ozone: line positions of 16O16O18O, 16O18O16O, 16O18O18O and 18O16O18O

The four 5v ₃ bands of ¹⁸O enriched ozone have been observed and analysed for the first time. Two species (¹⁶O¹⁸O¹⁶O and ¹⁸O¹⁶O¹⁸O) belong to the C_2v symmetry group and two other (¹⁸O¹⁸O¹⁶O and ¹⁶O¹⁶O¹⁸O) to the C_s symmetry group. They have been recorded at a resolution of 0.008 cm^?1 with a pathlength of 32.16 m. Despite the very weak absorptions observed, almost 250 energy levels have been derived for each of the 4 species, with J ? 35 and K _a ? 13, and suitable sets of Hamiltonian parameters have been determined. For 3 species it has been necessary to account for the resonance between the (005) and (311) states to correctly reproduce the spectra observed. These resonances, anharmonic for C_2v, and hybrid (both anhar-monic and Coriolis) for C_s symmetry confirm the accidentally extremely strong coupling between the (005) and (311) states for ¹⁶O₃, due in that case to the very close distance between unperturbed energy levels. This work also confirms the excellent prediction of band centres of these four species derived from the recently determined isotopically invariant molecular potential function.     

Roughness effects in low-<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Re</Emphasis><Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic"> θ</Emphasis></Subscript> open-channel turbulent boundary layers

This paper reports velocity measurements obtained on a smooth and two geometrically different types of rough surfaces in an open channel. The measurements were obtained using a laser-Doppler anemometer. The recent boundary layer theory proposed by George and Castillo (1997) and conventional scaling laws are used to analyze the data. The present flow shows a strong structural similarity to a canonical turbulent boundary layer in the inner layer. The results demonstrate that surface roughness increases the wake parameter. Surface roughness also enhances the levels of turbulence intensities, Reynolds shear stress and triple correlations over most of the boundary layer, but decreases the stress anisotropy.     

A short regiospecific total synthesis of furoventalene,a marine natural benzofuran

Synthesis of a naturally occurring irregular isoprenoid benzofuran, furoventalene ( 3 ), has been achieved in high yield via the nickel catalyzed coupling of 4-methyl-3-penten-1-ylmagnesium bromide ( 1 ) with 3-methyl-6-chlorobenzofuran ( 2 ).     

ELLIPSOMETRY OF BLACK LIPID MEMBRANES OF EGG LECITHIN AND CHLOROPLAST EXTRACTS

Abstract— Ellipsometric angles and reflectivity of black lipid membranes containing either egg lecithin or chloroplast extracts were measured at a wavelength of 6328 Å. Evidence was found for positive uniaxial anisotropy in membranes of lecithin. If the thickness of those films is assumed to be 62 Å, the refractive index normal to the film surface is 1.471 ± 0.004, and the refractive index parallel to the film surface is 1.454 ± 0.003. The results for membranes of chloroplast extracts also indicate a positive anisotropy in the indices of absorption.

A Simple Model for the Variation of Permeability due to Partial Saturation in Dual Scale Porous Media

The main focus of this work is to model macroscopically the effects of partial saturation upon the permeability of dual scale fibrous media made of fiber bundles when a Newtonian viscous fluid impregnates it. A new phenomenological model is proposed to explain the discrepancies between experimental pressure results and analytical predictions based on Darcy's law. This model incorporates the essential features of relative permeability but without the necessity of measuring saturation of the liquid for its prediction. The model is very relevant for the small scale industrial systems where a liquid is forced to flow through a fibrous porous medium. It requires four parameters. Two of them are the two permeability values based on the two length scales. One length scale is of the order of magnitude of the individual fiber radius and corresponds to the permeability of the completely staurated medium, the other is of the order of magnitude of the distance between the fiber bundles and corresponds to the permeability of the partially saturated medium. The other two parameters are the lengths of the two partially saturated regions of the flow domain. The two lengths of the partially saturated region and the permeability of the fully saturated flow domain can be directly measured from the experiments. The excellent agreement between the model and the experimental results of inlet pressure profile with respect to time suggests that this model may be used to describe the variation of the permeability behind a moving front in such porous media for correct pressure prediction. It may also be used to characterize the fibrous medium by determining the two different permeabilities and the relative importance of the unsaturated portion of the flow domain for a given architecture.     

A combination chemical and enzymatic approach for the preparation of azole carboxamide nucleoside triphosphate

Alternative substrates for DNA and RNA polymerases offer an important set of biochemical tools. Many of the standard methods for nucleoside triphosphate synthesis fail in the cases of nonpurine and nonpyrimidine nucleosides. An efficient preparation of the 5'-O-tosylates for both the deoxy- and ribonucleosides enabled preparation of the diphosphate esters by displacement with tris(tetra-n-butylammonium) pyrophosphate. Enzymatic synthesis of the azole carboxamide deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate was based on ATP as the phosphate donor, nucleoside diphosphate kinase as the catalyst, coupled with phosphoenol pyruvate (PEP) and pyruvate kinase as an ATP regeneration system. Ribonucleoside triphosphate synthesis required PEP as the phosphate donor and pyruvate kinase as the catalyst. An optimized purification procedure based upon boronate affinity gel was developed to yield highly purified nucleoside triphosphates. The strategy outlined here provides a new and efficient method for preparation of nucleoside 5'-triphosphate and is likely applicable to a broad variety of base and sugar modified nucleoside analogues.
