Tandem aziridine ring opening-disulfide formation-reduction-Michael addition in one-pot mediated by tetrathiomolybdate

A detailed study of tetrathiomolybdate mediated tandem regio- and stereoselective ring opening of aziridine, disulfide formation, reduction of disulfide bond and Michael reaction in a one-pot operation is reported. This constitutes four reactions that take place in one-pot operation. In the reaction of BnEt3N](4)MoS4 with an aziridine derived from cyclohexene and in the absence of Michael acceptor intermediates sulfonamidodisulfide and sulfonamidothiol were isolated and fully characterized. It has also been shown that it is possible to carry out selective opening of the aziridine ring in the presence of an epoxide. By incorporating a suitable Michael acceptor as part of the substrate, intramolecular 1,4-addition could be performed, to achieve the synthesis of sulfur containing acyclic, cyclic amino acid ester derivatives and thia-bicyclo3.3.1]nonane derivatives in good yields.

Bearing Capacity Factors for Ring Foundations

Bearing capacity factors because of the components of cohesion, surcharge, and unit weight, respectively, have been computed for smooth and rough ring footings for different combinations of r(i)= r(o) and. by using lower and upper bound theorems of the limit analysis in conjunction with finite elements and linear optimization, where r(i) and r(o) refer to the inner and outer radii of the ring, respectively. It is observed that for a smooth footing with a given value of r(o), the magnitude of the collapse load decreases continuously with an increase in r(i). Conversely, for a rough base, for a given value of r(o), hardly any reduction occurs in the magnitude of the collapse load up to r(i)= r(o) approximate to 0.2, whereas for r(i)= r(o) > 0.2, the magnitude of the collapse load, similar to that of a smooth footing, decreases continuously with an increase in r(i)= r(o). The results from the analysis compare reasonably well with available theoretical and experimental data from the literature. (C) 2015 American Society of Civil Engineers.

Gold catalyzed intramolecular hydroalkoxylation assisted ring opening of furans to the corresponding saturated gamma-keto esters

A facile ring opening of furans in furyl propargyl alcohols to the corresponding saturated gamma-keto esters is observed in the gold(III) chloride catalyzed reaction with MeOH. It is found that the ring opening of furan is driven by the intramolecular hydroalkoxylation. Mitigating the intramolecular hydroalkoxylation led to the expected conjugated enyne resulting from the dehydration. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Thermal Strain Analysis of a Flip-Chip Package by a Modified Hybrid Method

介绍一种可用于微电子封装局部应变场分析的实验/计算混合方法,该方法结合了有限元的整体/局部模型和实时的激光云纹干涉技术,利用激光云纹干涉技术所测得的应变场来校核有限元整体模型的计算结果,并用整体模型的结果作为局部模型的边界条件,对实验难以确定的封装结构局部位置的应力、应变场进行分析.用这种方法对可控坍塌倒装封装结构在热载荷作用下焊球内的应变场分布进行了分析,结果表明该方法能够提供封装结构内应力-应变场分布的准确和可靠的结果,为微电子封装的可靠性分析提供重要的依据. For the reliability analysis of electronic packages, strains in very localized areas, such as an interconnection or a corner, need to be determined. In this paper, a modified hybrid method of global/local modeling and real time moire interferometry is presented. In this method, a simplified, coarsely meshed global model is developed to get rough information about the deformation of the microelectronic package. In order to make sure the global model has been reasonably simplified and the material properties ...

Diagnóstico de la brucelosis bovina por el método del "ring-test"

El presente trabajo se llevó a cabo entre los meses de Julio a Septiembre del año 1965, en los Laboratorios de la Escuela Nacional de Agricultura y Ganadería. Se recurrió a la prueba del Ring-Test, para diagnosticar la Brucelosis en hatos situados en los departamentos de Managua, León, Carazo, Masaya, Granada, Rivas y Boaco; se obtuvieron ciertos datos estadísticos al objeto de hacer un estudio de productividad de leche. Los resultados de este trabajo fueron: 1). Las fincas positivas se encuentran localizadas en los departamentos de Managua, Carazo, Granada y Rivas. 2). Los porcentajes de hatos Negativos, positivos y sospechosos por departamento fueron los siguientes: % de hatos N., Managua 80,76. % de hatos P. 9.62, % de hatos S. 3.91, Leon % de hatos N. 100.00, % de hatos P. 9.62, % de hatos S. 0, Granada % de hatos N. 86.66, % de Hatos P. 0, % de hatos S. 0, Rivas % de hatos N. 46.15, % de hatos P. 53.85, % de hatos S. 0. No se hace mención de los porcentajes de los departamentos de Masaya, Carazo y Boaco, debido a los pocos hatos examinados en ellos. 3). El porcentaje de vacas en producción del total de vacas adultas es de 54.10% en la cuenca lechera y la zona del pacifico y el 54% en los hatos examinados. 4). La cantidad de leche para la venta es de 3.22 litros por vaca.

Static equilibrium of horizontal ring prominence

In 1980 the Beijing Observatory had successively observed sevesal rare completely closed ring prominences whose ring plane was approximately parallel to the solar surface with a characteristic life about 1—2 days. In this paper we discuss the static equilibrium of this kind of horizontal ring plasma under the simultaneous actions of magnetic force, gravity and pressure gradients. Assuming ring plasma with axisymmetry and rectangular plasma cross-section and adopting closed magnetic field boundary condition from the basic equations we obtain the exact zero order general solutions for magnetic field (force-free field) and density (pressure). We further obtain an eigen-solution for the zero order magnetic field and density as well as the first order magnetic field, thus giving a kind of the possible distribution of magnetic field and density for the horizontal closed ring prominence. The closed magnetic structure of ring prominence as presented in this paper, has no link with the force lines of the outside corona magnetic field. This is helpful to explain the great temperature difference between prominenee and corona.
