A nonflame method for atomic absorption spectroscopy is
described. A helical tungsten filament from a commercially available
6-V, 4-A light bulb, heated to :incandescence in an argon atmosphere
is used to atomize 2-μl aqueous samples for metals analyses. Studies
of two hollow cathode lamp tungsten filament orientations, a
modulated light...
A new three-phase argon plasma arc was developed for analytical emission spectroscopy. The power supplied to the plasma arc utilized a simple circuit with three-phase as line voltage stepped down via a transformer to 104Vrms. A three concentric quartz tubing assembly was determined to be the optimum configuration for supplying...
This study compares the production rates and yarding costs of prebunching
with a low investment skyline yarder and swinging with a larger
skyline yarder to full-cycle thinning with the larger yarder The study
analyzes two slackpulling techniques (manual and haulback assisted) and
two carriages (a multi-span carriage and a clamping...
Steens Mountain is a major horst block near the northern terminus of the Basin and Range geomorphic province of southeastern Oregon. A section of Miocene volcanic rocks totaling 5000 feet in thickness are exposed in a fault escarpment on the eastern side of Steens Nountain. These include: the Pike Creek...
The State of Oregon possesses a tumultuous relationship with the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and currently experiences one of the lowest participation rates in the country despite attempting several policy reforms. The State of Washington has exhibited a comparatively similar relationship. However, it has adopted a distinctive policy supplementation...
The thermolysis of trans-1 -trimethylsiloxy- 1-vinylcyclotridec-
3-ene (VI-OTMS) led to the formation of two major products: 4-vinylcyclotridecanone
(VII) and cyclopentadec-5-en-l-one (VIII) after
hydrolysis. Ketone VII is produced by a concerted [3, 3] sigmatropic
shift, while ketone VIII is formed by a [1, 3] sigmatropic shift with
a concerted or diradical...
Part I
The pyrolysis of cis- and trans- 1, 2-divinyl-1- trimethylsiloxy -
cyclohexane, II- and III-TMS, under the same conditions as the
pyrolysis of cis-l-vinyl -1-trimethylsiloxycyclooct-3-ene, I-TMS,
confirms that a sequence of concerted reactions for the rearrangement
of II- and III-TMS to trans-l-trimethylsiloxycyclodec-3-ene,
IV-TMS, is a viable pathway in the...
Pyrolysis of 4-cycloheptene-l-methyl acetate under flow conditions at 285° gives only rearranged bicyclic acetates and hydrocarbons rather than the anticipated simple elimination product methylenecyclohept- 4-ene. These rearranged acetates have the same structures and are formed in virtually the same relative percentages as those observed in the "π- route" solvolysis of...
