SYNTHESIS AND X-RAY CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE OF AN ORGANOLANTHANIDE COMPLEX [(BU(T)CP)3NDBRLI(THF)3]

(ButCp)2NdCl.2THF reacts with one equivalent of phenyllithum in THF yielding tris(tert-butylcyclopentadienyl)neodymium lithium bromide tetrahydrofuran, [(ButCP)3 NdBrLi(THF)3], as a by-product, whose structure has been determined by X-ray crystallography. The 10-coordinated neodymium atom is bonded to three tert-butyl-cyclopentadienyl groups and one bromine atom, forming a distorted pseudo-tetrahedron.

稀土-其它过渡金属混合催化剂用于共轭双烯烃的聚合——Ⅳ.(NdCl_3+FeCl_3)·nphen-HAI(i-Bu)_2体系对异戊二烯的聚合

本文报道由(NdCl_3+FeCl_3)·nphen-HAl(i-Bu)_2催化体系引发异戊二烯聚合的结果。在适当Nd/Pe比下,该体系对异戊二烯聚合的活性可超过单一钕或铁催化剂的活性,同时随催化剂中钕和铁含量的不同,所得产物的微观结构变化很大,当体系中钕含量由100％→0时,产物的顺-1,4结构含量由94.4％→22.1％,而3,4结构含量由5.6％→77.9％。Al/M(N=Nd+Fe)比、单体浓度和聚合温度不仅对聚合活性有影响,对产物的微观结构影响也较大。事实表明,该聚合体系中存在着两种过渡金属(Nd和Fe)活性中心,它们按各自的机理进行异戊二烯的聚合。

丁二烯在NdCl_3·2Phen-HAl(i-Bu)_2催化体系下的聚合动力学

氯化稀土的某些配合物与烷基铝组成的双烯烃定向聚合催化剂用于丁二烯聚合时,大多得到分子量较高的产物。最近我们报道了可在较宽范围内改变聚丁二烯分子量的三氯化钕邻菲啰啉配合物(NdCl_3·2Phen)与氢化二异丁基铝[HAl(i-Bu)_2]所组成的新的二元氯化稀土定向聚合催化剂。本文报导该体系下的丁二烯聚合动力学,测定了聚合反应速率对

A working paper written for Boston University Libraries to foster discussion about how to provide better support for BU faculty authors.

Integrated Chest Image Analysis System "BU-MIA"

We introduce "BU-MIA," a Medical Image Analysis system that integrates various advanced chest image analysis methods for detection, estimation, segmentation, and registration. BU-MIA evaluates repeated computed tomography (CT) scans of the same patient to facilitate identification and evaluation of pulmonary nodules for interval growth. It provides a user-friendly graphical user interface with a number of interaction tools for development, evaluation, and validation of chest image analysis methods. The structures that BU-MIA processes include the thorax, lungs, and trachea, pulmonary structures, such as lobes, fissures, nodules, and vessels, and bones, such as sternum, vertebrae, and ribs.

BU Computer Science 1998 Proxy Trace: Release Notes

In a recent paper (Changes in Web Client Access Patterns: Characteristics and Caching Implications by Barford, Bestavros, Bradley, and Crovella) we performed a variety of analyses upon user traces collected in the Boston University Computer Science department in 1995 and 1998. A sanitized version of the 1995 trace has been publicly available for some time; the 1998 trace has now been sanitized, and is available from: http://www.cs.bu.edu/techreports/1999-011-usertrace-98.gz ftp://ftp.cs.bu.edu/techreports/1999-011-usertrace-98.gz This memo discusses the format of this public version of the log, and includes additional discussion of how the data was collected, how the log was sanitized, what this log is and is not useful for, and areas of potential future research interest.
