Organoboron Derivatives of Stereoregular Phenylcyclosilsesquioxanes

This study presents the synthesis of organoboron derivatives of stereoregular 4-, 6-, and 12-unit phenylcyclosilsesquioxanes. All compounds obtained were isolated in good yields (70–80 %) and were fully characterized by ¹H, ¹³C, ²⁹Si, ¹¹B NMR, IR spectroscopy, HRMS ESI, and elemental microanalysis. The structure of the key modifier, obtained for the first time, 4-(tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl) dimethylvinylsilane, was also confirmed by single-crystal XRD.     

Electrochemical synthesis of α,α-dihaloacetophenones from terminal alkyne derivatives

By virtue of electrochemistry, a series of α,α-dihaloacetophenones were easily obtained with good to excellent yields. This electrochemical procedure was taken in a divided cell with constant current in aqueous media. The reaction can be carried out smoothly at room temperature under metal and oxidant free condition, which provides an eco-friendly synthesis for the α,α-dihaloacetophenone derivatives.     

Partitioning of Selected Anisole and Veratrole Derivatives between Water and Anionic Surfactant Micelles

The UV absorption spectra of six structurally related derivatives of anisole and veratrole, i.e., anisaldehyde, (E)-anethole, estragole, veratraldehyde, methyleugenol and (E)-methylisoeugenol, were recorded at various concentrations of the anionic surfactants, either sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) or sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES) at T = 298 K. In addition, conductivity and density measurements were made for the SLS and SLES solutions to determine the volumetric properties of the studied surfactants. Next, using the W. Al-Soufi, L. Pińeiro and M. Novo model (APN model) including the pseudo-phase model for micellar solubilization, the values of micelle-water partition coefficients for each perfume-surfactant system were determined. In addition, the relations between the molecular structures of the solute and the head group of the surfactant and the value of the micelle-water partition coefficient as well as the octanol-water one were discussed.     

Extreme compression behaviour of equations of state

The extreme compression (P→∞) behaviour of various equations of state with K′_∞>0 yields (P/K)_∞=1/K′_∞, an algebraic identity found by Stacey. Here P is the pressure, K the bulk modulus, K^′=dK/dP, and K′_∞, the value of K^′ at P→∞. We use this result to demonstrate further that there exists an algebraic identity also between the higher pressure derivatives of bulk modulus which is satisfied at extreme compression by different types of equations of state such as the Birch–Murnaghan equation, Poirier–Tarantola logarithmic equation, generalized Rydberg equation, Keane's equation and the Stacey reciprocal K-primed equation. The identity has been used to find a relationship between λ_∞, the third-order Grüneisen parameter at P→∞, and pressure derivatives of bulk modulus with the help of the free-volume formulation without assuming any specific form of equation of state.     

Fourier Analysis of Semistable Distributions

We consider the generalized convolution powers G _α ^*u (x) of an arbitrary semistable distribution function G _α (x) of exponent α∈(0,2), and prove that for all j, k∈{0,1,2,…} and u>0 the derivatives G _α ^(k,j)(x;u)=∂ ^k+j G _α ^*u (x)/∂ x ^k ∂ u ^j , x∈ℝ, are of bounded variation on the whole real line ℝ. The proof, along with an integral recursion in j, is new even in the special case of stable laws, and the result provides a framework for possible asymptotic expansions in merge theorems from the domain of geometric partial attraction of semistable laws.

Divergent reaction pathways for one-pot,three-component synthesis of novel 4H-pyrano[3,2-h]quinolines under ultrasound irradiation

The present paper deal with the multi-component condensation of 8-hydroxy quinoline, aromatic aldehydes, and sulfone derivatives catalyzed by p-toluenesulfonic acid for the synthesis of a series of 4H-pyrano[3,2-h]quinoline derivatives in ethanol under ultrasonic irradiations. We provide a series of quinoline derivatives containing sulfone moiety interesting for biological screening tests. The reactions were carried out under both conventional and ultrasonic irradiation conditions. In general, improvement in rates and yields were observed when reactions were carried out under sonication compared with classical silent conditions. Also, also, sonochemical reaction give different reaction pathway other than silent reaction. These remarkable effects appeared in sonicated reactions can be reasonably interpreted in terms of acoustic cavitation phenomenon. Structures of the products were established on analytical and spectral data.     

On the zeros ofζ (1)(s) — a (on the zeros of a class of a generalized Dirichlet series — XVII)

Some very precise results (see Theorems 4 and 5) are proved about thea-values of thelth derivative of a class of generalized Dirichlet series, forl≥l _o =l _o(a) (l _o being a large constant). In particular for the precise results on the zeros ofζ ⁽¹⁾ (s) —a (a any complex constant andl≥l _o) see Theorems 1 and 2 of the introduction.

Smoothing Properties and Approximation of Time Derivatives for Parabolic Equations: Variable Time Steps

We study smoothing properties and approximation of time derivatives for time discretization schemes with variable time steps for a homogeneous parabolic problem formulated as an abstract initial value problem in a Banach space. The time stepping methods are based on using rational approximations to the exponential function which are A()-stable for suitable (0,/2] with unit bounded maximum norm. First- and second-order approximations of time derivatives based on using difference quotients are considered. Smoothing properties are derived and error estimates are established under the so-called increasing quasi-quasiuniform assumption on the time steps.
