Vibrational Spectroscopic Study on Ion Solvation and Association of Lithium Perchlorate in 4-Methoxymethyl-ethylene Carbonate

Solvation interaction and ion association in solutions of lithium perchlorate/4-methoxymethyl-ethylene carbonate （MEC） have been studied by using Infrared and Raman spectra as a function of concentration of lithium perchlorate. The splitting of ring deformation band and ring ether asymmetric stretching band, and the change of carbonyl stretching band suggest that there should be a strong interaction between Li^＋ and the solvent molecules, and the site of solvation should be the oxygen atom of carbonyl group. The apparent solvation number of Li^＋ was calculated by using band fitting technique. The solvation number was decreased from 3.3 to 1.1 with increasing the concentration of LiClO4/MEC solutions. On the other hand, the band fitting for the ClO4^- band revealed the presence of contact ion pair, and free ClO4^- anion in the concentrated solutions.     

Conductance of tetraalkylammonium salts in 2-butanone from −45 to 25°C

Interactions of three types of tetraalkylammonium cations (tetrapropyltetrabutyl-and tri-isoamylbutyl- ammonium) with perchlorate and tetraphenylborate anions were studied by the conductivity method in 2-butanone from –45°C to 25°C. Conductance data obtained for diluted solutions (5×10^–5 – 2×10^–3 mol-dm^–3) were used to calculate the limiting molar conductivities and associationconstants. The conductance equation of Fuoss-Hsia including the Chen term and the chemical model assumption were applied. Limiting ion conductivities were calculated assuming equal limiting conductivities of the i-Am₃BuN⁺ and BPh ₄ ^– ions at all temperatures. Gibbs energies and entropies of ion pair formation, calculated from the dependence of association constants on temperature, are presented including the contributions due to short-range forces.     

Lipschitzian inverse functions,directional derivatives,and applications inC 1,1 optimization

The paper shows that Thibault's limit sets allow an iff-characterization of local Lipschitzian invertibility in finite dimension. We consider these sets as directional derivatives and extend the calculus in a way that can be used to clarify whether critical points are strongly stable inC ^1,1 optimization problems.Many fruitful discussions with colleagues D. Klatte and K. Tammer as well as with H. Th. Jongen and F. Nozicka have influenced the present investigations in a very constructive manner. For the original papers concerning the sets f(x; u), the author is indebted to Prof. L. Thibault.     

Dissociation of photochromic spiroanthrooxazine dimers in the excited state

The influence of temperature and concentration on the spectral polarization properties of the luminescence and absorption of molecules of the original form of photochromic spiroanthrooxazine (SAO) in petroleum ether and polyethylene was investigated. It was shown that the long-wave part of the absorption spectra of the molecules is formed by at least two -*-type electronic transitions, the oscillators of which are mutually orthogonal. It is suggested that the SAO molecules form dimers in nonpolar media through dipole-dipole interaction, and at high concentrations they also form higher associates. Dimers stable in the ground state dissociate when excited to the second electronic transition with a rate constant of 10¹²–10¹³ s^–1.N. N.

Higher-order necessary conditions for infinite and semi-infinite optimization

In this paper, we present a unified theory of first-order and higher-order necessary optimality conditions for abstract vector optimization problems in normed linear spaces. We prove general multiplier rules, from which nearly all known first-order, second-order, and higher-order necessary conditions can be derived. In the last section, we prove higher-order necessary conditions for semi-infinite programming problems.This work was developed within the Forschungsschwerpunkt Dynamische Systeme, Universität Bremen, Bremen, West Germany.The author wishes to thank Prof. Dr. D. Hinrichsen for his helpful remarks and discussions during the preparation of this work.     

Production of ethanol from cellulosic biomass by Clostridium thermocellum SS19 in submerged fermentation

Carotenogenesis of the lactose-negative yeast Rhodotorula rubra GED5 was studied by cocultivation with Kluyveromyces lactis MP11 in whey ultrafiltrate (WU) (35, 50, and 70 g of lactose/L). Maximum yields of cell mass (24.3 g/L) and carotenoids (10.2 mg/L of culture fluid or 0.421 μ g/g of dry cells) were obtained by growing the microbial association in WU (50 g of lactose/L) in a fermentor with an airflow rate of 0.8 L/(L·min), agitation of 220 rpm, and temperature of 30°C. The identified carotenoid pigments—β-carotene, torulene, and torularhodin—reached maximum concentrations (133, 26.9, and 222.3 μg/g of dry cells, respectively) on d 5 for torulene and d 6 for β-carotene and torularhodin.     

PHOTOPHYSICAL STUDY OF SULFONATED POLYSTYRENE

The photophysical properties of a series of sulfonated micromolecule(paratoluenesulfonic acid,HPTS) and macromolecules (linear and crosslinked poiys.tvrene) have been studied by steady-state fluorescence spectra. The results indicate that the ground sulfonated ring associations can form in both the micromolecules and the macromolecules. The fluorescence spectra of the sulfonated crosslinked copolymers appear a red-shift when the copolymers change from hydrogen-type to sodium-t~pe, and some new emission bands appear in the long-wavelength region.These results are explained in terms of synergetic effect of hydrogen bond, π-π interaction and crosslinking effect.
