Intramolecular Hydroamination of Selenoalkynes to 2-Selenylindoles in the Absence of Catalyst

In this work, a series of 2-chalcogenylindoles was synthesized by an efficient methodology, starting from chalcogenoalkynes, including a previously unreported tellurium indole derivative. For the first time, these 2-substituted chalcogenylindoles were obtained in the absence of metal catalyst or base, under thermal conditions only. In addition, the results described herein represent a methodology with inverse regioselectivity for the chalcogen functionalization of indoles.     

A profit-maximizing supply chain network design model with demand choice flexibility

We present a profit-maximizing supply chain design model in which a company has flexibility in determining which customers to serve. The company may lose a customer to competition if the price it charges is too high. We show the problem formulation and solution algorithm, and discuss computational results.     

Non-linear Stability of Modulated Fronts¶for the Swift–Hohenberg Equation

We consider front solutions of the Swift–Hohenberg equation ∂ _t u= -(1+ ∂ _x ²)² u + ɛ² u -u ³. These are traveling waves which leave in their wake a periodic pattern in the laboratory frame. Using renormalization techniques and a decomposition into Bloch waves, we show the non-linear stability of these solutions. It turns out that this problem is closely related to the question of stability of the trivial solution for the model problem ∂ _t u(x,t) = ∂ _x ² u (x,t)+(1+tanh(x-ct))u(x,t)+u(x,t) ^p with p>3. In particular, we show that the instability of the perturbation ahead of the front is entirely compensated by a diffusive stabilization which sets in once the perturbation has hit the bulk behind the front.

Crystal structures of two ancylite modifications

The crystal structures of two ancylite specimens from Khibiny massif (the Kola Peninsula, Russia)—ancylite-(Ce) from alkali hydrothermalites (Sr_1.01Ca_0.02Ba_0.01)_Σ1.04(Ce_0.52La_0.28Nd_0.11Pr_0.04 Sm_0.01)_Σ0.96(CO₃)₂(OH_0.83F_0.13)_Σ0.96 · 0.9H₂O and ancylite-(Ce) from carbonatites—have (Sr_0.80Ca_0.05Ba_0.01)_Σ0.86(Ce_0.62La_0.40Nd_0.09Pr_0.03) _Σ1.14(CO₃)₂(OH_0.99F_0.15)_Σ1.14 · 1.0H₂O been refined by the Rietveld method. A focusing STOE-STADIP diffractometer with a bent Ge(111) primary monochromator was used (λ MoK _{α 1} radiation, 2.16° < 2θ < 54.98°; reflection number 237–437). All the computations for ancylite from alkali hydrothermalites were performed within the sp. gr.
