Syndiotactic polymerization of styrene catalyzed by alkenyl‐substituted cyclopentadienyltitanium trichlorides

CH₂?CHCH₂CpTiCl₃ (1), CH₂?CHCH₂CH₂CpTiCl₃ (2) and CH₃CH₂CH₃CpTiCl₃ (3) have been synthesized and characterized. The influence of the alkenyl substituent groups on the catalyst activities in the syndiotactic polymerization of styrene was investigated. The catalyst activities decreased in the order CH₂?CHCH₂CH₂CpTiCl₃ > CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂CpTiCl₃ > CH₃CH₂CH₂CpTiCl₃ > CH₂?CHCH₂CpTiCl₃ (Cp?C₅H₄). By using complex 1, the dependence of the activity on the concentration of methylaluminoxane, triisobutylaluminum and diisobutylaluminum hydride was investigated.

On harmonic analysis of causal operators

We follow the group representation theory approach to define causal operators on Banach modules and present some of their spectral properties.     

On the existence of f-local subgroups in a group

We prove the existence of infinite subgroups with nontrivial locally finite radicals and of locally finite subgroups in the groups with almost finite almost solvable elements of prime orders and in the groups with generally finite elements.

We study combinatorial properties of the alternating subgroup of a Coxeter group, using a presentation of it due to Bourbaki.     

G-spaces and Fixed Point Sets

For a compact connected group G, in a compact free G-space M every closed subset is the fixed point set of an autohomeomorphism if the weight of M is not bigger than that of G. In a compact group with nonsingleton components, every closed subset is the fixed point set of an autohomeomorphism if and only if the weight of the whole group is not bigger than that of the component of the identity.     

Weight functions on groups and an amenability criterion for Beurling algebras

The paper is devoted to the study of weights on groups. A connection between weight functions and harmonic functions is established. A relationship between the weight theory on groups with the “Tychonoff property” and the theory of bounded cohomology is presented. It is proved that the Beurling algebraℓ1 (G, ω) constructed for the weightω is amenable if and only if the groupG is amenable and the weightω is equivalent to a multiplicative characterχ:G→ℝ₊.

Group of Self-Equivalences of Sum Object

In general category, the group of self-equivalences of sum object can decompose as the product of its two subgroups under certain conditions and also several split short exact sequences are obtained. Subsequently, we apply the above results to the category of space under a space and get some results which are dual to those in fibrewise category.

Living cationic ring‐opening polymerization of five‐membered cyclic dithiocarbonate controlled by neighboring group participation of carbamate group

A five‐membered cyclic dithiocarbonate having phenylcarbamate moiety 1 underwent cationic ring‐opening polymerization by using methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate as an initiator in nitrobenzene at 60 °C. Both of the corresponding first‐order kinetic plot and conversion‐molecular weight plot showed linearity to suggest the living fashion of the polymerization, which was then supported by two‐stage polymerization experiment. The living fashion as well as the regioselective formation of the repeating unit suggested significant contribution of the neighboring group participation of the carbamate group to form a stabilized cationic propagating end, of which structure was confirmed by performing an equimolar reaction of 1 and methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate with analyzing the resulting species by NMR spectroscopy. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
