Autour du théorème de Ferrand–Obata (Concerning the Theorem of Ferrand–Obata)

The aim of this article is to give a new dynamical proof of the Ferrand–Obata theorem when the manifold is compact. This will give us a generalisation of this theorem to transversally conformal foliations ofcodimension greater than three and constant basic functions.

Preparation and Mechanical Properties of Fe3Al Nanostructured Intermetallics

Nanostructured Fe₃Al intermetallic compounds were produced by using hydrogen arc plasma method. The transmission electron microscopy experiments showed that the average particle size of the as-synthesized was about 40-nm. The change in hardness of Fe₃Al nanostructured intermetallic compounds with annealing temperatures was observed and evaluated.

The Effect of Boundary Conditions on Gas-phase Synthesised Silver Nanoparticles

We have prepared spherical non-agglomerated silver nanoparticles by an evaporation–condensation–dilution/cooling technique. Silver was evaporated from a crucible in a tubular flow reactor. A porous tube diluter was used to quench the carrier gas at the outlet of the reactor to enhance the formation of small particles and to suppress agglomeration and other particle growth mechanisms. The number size distribution of the prepared particles was measured with a differential mobility analyser–condensation nucleus counter combination and the size and the shape of the particles were analysed with transmission electron microscope. The system was modelled using a sectional aerosol dynamics computer code to estimate the importance of different aerosol processes. In all conditions the particles obtained were non-agglomerated and spherical. The mean particle diameter varied from 4 to 10-nm depending on boundary conditions. From the modelling studies it can be concluded that the nucleation rate is the most important parameter controlling the final particle size.     

Asymmetric reduction of ketones using recombinant E. coli cells that produce a versatile carbonyl reductase with high enantioselectivity and broad substrate specificity

The gene encoding a versatile biocatalyst that shows high enantioselectivity for a variety of ketones, SCR (Saccharomyces cerevisiae carbonyl reductase), has been identified, cloned, and expressed in Escherichia coli. Two types of expression systems with high NADPH-regenerating capacities have been constructed. One is the tandem system, where the genes encoding SCR and GDH (glucose dehydrogenase) are located in the same plasmid, and the other is the two-plasmid system, where each of the SCR and GDH genes is located in separate plasmids that can coexist in one E. coli cell. Asymmetric reduction of ketones with the recombinant E. coli cells gave synthetically useful 20 alcohols, 11 of which were enantiomerically pure. The productivity of one of these products was as high as 41 g/L.

Toward phenanthridin-2-ylidene: electrophilicity versus acidity in planar-constrained C-aryl iminium salts

A phenanthridinium salt was prepared in four steps, including an intramolecular CH-arylation and a hydride abstraction reaction. Treatment with sterically demanding bases does not lead to the corresponding carbene, but rather to addition products: the planar-constrained geometry significantly enhances the electrophilicity over the acidity of C-aryl iminium salts.     

Microkinetic modelling of the formation of C1 and C2 products in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis over cobalt catalysts

The heats of adsorption of different C₁ and C₂ molecules assumed to be present during the initial steps of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and activation energies for elementary steps envisioned to occur in the synthesis are calculated for Co by using the unity bond index-quadratic exponential potential (UBI-QEP) method. The preexponential factors for the elementary steps are calculated from transition-state theory, and the rate constants are calculated according to the Arrhenius equation. The activation barrier for hydrogenation of CO is found to be lower compared to hydrogen assisted dissociation of CO, which has a smaller activation barrier than direct dissociation of CO. The reaction steps with high activation barriers are eliminated. Based on this elimination two sets of elementary steps for formation of C₁ and C₂ alkenes and alkanes in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis are established: one based on hydrogen assisted CO dissociation (carbide mechanism) and one based on CO hydrogenation (CO insertion mechanism). In addition, one mechanism of producing CO₂ from the water-gas shift reaction is proposed. The resulting mechanisms are combined and used in the microkinetic model, which are fitted to experimental results at methanation conditions (T = 483 K or 493 K, p = 1.85 bar and H₂/CO = 10) over a Co/Al₂O₃ Fischer-Tropsch catalyst. A good tuning is obtained by adjusting the C-Co and H-Co binding strengths. The microkinetic modelling based on these assumptions indicates that CO is mainly converted through hydrogenation of CO and that C₂ compounds are mainly produced by insertion of CO into a metal-methyl bond. Thus, from the surface coverages and reaction rates predicted by the microkinetic modelling the mechanism can be further reduced to only include the CO insertion mechanism. Hydrogenation of CHO to CH₂O is found to be the rate determining initiation step, and insertion of CO into a metal-methyl bond is found to be the rate determining step for chain growth. By using the UBI-QEP method for calculation of activation energies, the activation barriers for dissociation of CO and hydrogenation of surface carbon are found to be too large for the carbide mechanisms to occur. However, experimental data or another theoretical method is necessary in order to support or disprove the calculated activation energies in this work.
