Synthesis and structures of heterasumanenes having different heteroatom functionalities

After the protection of two α-carbons of the dibenzothiophene moiety in triphenylenothiophene 1 by trimethylsilyl groups, the resulting compound 4 reacted with butyllithium followed by dichlorodimethylsilane to afford 10H-silolo[2′,3′,4′,5′:4,5]triphenyleno[1,12-bcd]thiophene 8, which reacted with butyllithium followed by dichlorodimethylsilane to afford novel heterasumanene 11. Using dichlorodimethylstannane instead of dichlorodimethylsilane afforded heterasumanene 12, which is the first example of a heterasumanene having three different heteroatom functionalities.     

HVPE growth of semi-polar (1 1 2¯ 2)GaN on GaN template (1 1 3)Si substrate

The hydride-vapour-phase-epitaxial (HVPE) growth of semi-polar (1 1 2¯ 2)GaN is attempted on a GaN template layer grown on a patterned (1 1 3) Si substrate. It is found that the chemical reaction between the GaN grown layer and the Si substrate during the growth is suppressed substantially by lowering the growth temperatures no higher than 900 °C. And the surface morphology is improved by decreasing the V/III ratio. It is shown that a 230-μm-thick (1 1 2¯ 2)GaN with smooth surface is obtained at a growth temperature of 870 °C with V/III of 14.     

Periodic orbits and binary collisions in the classical three-body Coulomb problem

In the helium case of the classical three-body Coulomb problem in two dimensions with zero angular momentum, we develop a procedure to find periodic orbits applying two symbolic dynamics for one-dimensional and planar problems. Focusing our attention on binary collisions with these tools, a sequence of periodic orbits are predicted and are actually found numerically. A family of periodic orbits found has regularity in their actions. For this family of periodic orbits, it is shown that thanks to its regularity, a partial summation of the Gutzwiller trace formula with a daring approximation gives a Rydberg series of energy levels.     

Reversible maps in two-degrees of freedom Hamiltonian systems

It has been shown that a sub-class of two-degrees of freedom Hamiltonian systems possesses a reversing symmetry discovered by Birkhoff in the restricted problem of three bodies. This mixed space-time reversing symmetry, which is different from the classical time reversal symmetry, can be shared by time-reversible as well as time-irreversible systems. Examples of time-irreversible systems which possess this reversing symmetry are the restricted problem of three bodies as shown by Birkhoff in 1915, and a special case of the motion of a rigid body with a fixed point discussed in this paper. If a Hamiltonian system possesses this Birkhoff reversing symmetry, then there exists a surface of section for which the corresponding Poincare map is Birkhoff-reversible. The Birkhoff-reversibility of this map may be used to study its global dynamics such as the locations and the distribution of the stable and unstable periodic points, the distribution of stable and chaotic regions, and the identification of the scattering regions.

Anisotropy in conductance of a quasi-one-dimensional metallic surface state measured by a square micro-four-point probe method

We have devised a "square micro-four-point probe method" using an independently driven ultrahigh-vacuum four-tip scanning tunneling microscope, and succeeded for the first time to directly measure anisotropic electrical conductance of a single-atomic layer on a solid surface. A quasi-one-dimensional metal of a single-domain Si(111)4 x 1-In had a surface-state conductance along the metallic atom chains (sigma(axially)) to be 7.2(+/-0.6) x 10(-4) S/square at room temperature, which was larger than that in the perpendicular direction (sigma(radially)) by approximately 60 times. The sigma(axially) was consistently interpreted by a Boltzmann equation with the anisotropic surface-state band dispersion, while the sigma(radially) was dominated by a surface-space-charge-layer conductance.

Electron-phonon interaction and localization of surface-state carriers in a metallic monolayer

Temperature-dependent electron transport in a metallic surface superstructure, Si(111)sqrt[3] x sqrt[3]-Ag, was studied by a micro-four-point probe method and photoemission spectroscopy. The surface-state conductivity exhibits a sharp transition from metallic conduction to strong localization at approximately 150 K. The metallic regime is due to electron-phonon interaction while the localization seemingly originates from coherency of electron waves. Random potential variations, caused by Friedel oscillations of surface electrons around defects, likely induce strong carrier localization.     

Synthesis of (R)-curcumene and (R)-xanthorrizol based on 1,2-Aryl migration via phenonium ion

Solvolysis reaction of methyl (4S,5S)-4-(4'-methoxyphenyl)-5-tosyloxy-2(E)-hexenoate 5 in water-saturated MeNO(2) gave the 1,2-migration product, (4S,5S)-5-hydroxy-4-(4'-methoxyphenyl)-2-(E)-hexenoate 6 (55% yield), which was converted to methyl (R)-(4'-methylphenyl)hexanoate 11 in 25% overall yield (5 steps). Treatment of (R)-11 with MeLi gave tertiary alcohol congener 12, which was subjected to dehydration to afford (R)-(-)-curcumene 1. An introduction of hydroxyl group at meta-position of the aromatic ring in (R)-11 was achieved based on consecutive treatment [1) selective iodination, 2) conversion of aryl iodide to aryl boronate, 3) conversion of aryl boronate to phenol]. Thus obtained phenol (R)-16 was treated with MeLi to give tertiary alcohol congener 17, which was subjected to dehydration to afford (R)-(-)-xanthorrizol 2.     

Synthesis and structure of an optically active π‐stacked poly(dibenzofulvene) bearing chiral terminal group

Dibenzofulvene (DBF) affords a polymer having π‐stacked conformation by anionic, cationic, and free‐radical polymerization. In this study, DBF was polymerized anionically using potassium menthoxide as initiator to obtain optically active poly(DBF) having a chiral menthoxy group as a terminal group. The obtained polymer indicated circular dichroism (CD) absorption bands in the absorption wavelength range of fluorenyl group, indicating that chiral conformation was induced to the stacked main chain by the influence of the terminal group. The CD intensity was reversibly affected by temperature of measurement; hence, the chiral conformation may be rather dynamic. The effect of the terminal group was found to decrease as the chain length increased. Theoretical CD calculation indicated that the obtained polymer has a left‐handed helical conformation and that the dihedral angle between neighboring monomeric units might be about 10–20°. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
