Chiral metallacyclophanes: self-assembly, characterization, and application in asymmetric catalysis

[structure: see text] A family of chiral metallacyclophanes has been readily assembled based on robust Pt-acetylide linkage and characterized by a variety of spectroscopic techniques and X-ray crystallography. The steric congestion around the chiral dihydroxy groups in rigid metallacyclophane 4 prevents their reactions with Ti(O(i)()Pr)(4) to form active catalysts for enantioselective diethylzinc additions to aromatic aldehydes. In contrast, chiral dihydroxy groups in more flexible unclosed metallacyclophane 5 are effective ligands for enantioselective catalytic diethylzinc additions to aromatic aldehydes.     

激光谐振腔内倾斜误差的自适应校正

我们设计制作了一种性能良好的倾斜镜,试验了两种校正系统:微机控制的试探爬山法系统和高频振动爬山法系统。实验结果表明,这两种校正系统,都可以成功地校正腔内倾斜误差。最后,比较了两种校正系统的优缺点。     

NLS-tupe equations in 2+1 dimensions: New type of solutions and non-isospectral problems

Integrable systems of NLS type in 2+1 dimensions are studied in three ways: their special solutions by Lie point symmetries, breaking-solutions by the ISM, as well as the non-isospectral problems.Department of Mathematics, Statistics and Computing Science, University of New England, Armidale N.S.W. 2351, Australia.

On the Global Stability of Cooperative Systems

Suppose that F is a C¹ cooperative vector field on X, whereX = Rⁿ or Int , or [[p, q]].We prove that the unique equilibrium of F is globally asymptoticallystable if and only if every forward semi-orbit has compact closurein X.     

Comparison of the elastic and inelastic scatterings between152Sm+12C and148 Nd+16O

Angular distributions of elastic and inelastic scattering have been measured for¹⁵²Sm+¹²C at 63.2 MeV and¹⁴⁸Nd+¹⁶O at 90.9 MeV. An evident interference pattern in the inelastic scattering has been observed for the first time in a strong Coulomb coupling system.We are indebted to Dr. S. Pieper for supplying the Ptolemy Program. One of us (Chenglie Jiang) would like to acknowledge the Argonne National Laboratory for the opportunity given, to perform theoretical calculations with the code Ptolemy during his visit there. Thanks are also due to Mr. H. Folger (GSI, Germany) for supplying the targets. This work was supported in part by China National Nature Science Fundation.
