A study of the relative rates of benzylic hydrogen abstractions
from a series of meta and para substituted neopentylbenzenes by the
bromine radical and trichloromethyl radical at 70°C has been carried
out. Application of the Hammett equation yields p values of -0.75
for the bromine atom and -0.94 for the...
The relative rates of bridgehead hydrogen abstraction from a
series of 1-substituted adamantanes by the trichloromethyl radical
at 40.0°C. has been carried out. Utilizing the Hammett-Taft equation
a p* value of -0.40 was obtained for this reaction. Application
of the Kirkwood-Westheimer model for the transmission of substituent
effects gave an...
A study of the relative rates of the alkyl hydrogen abstraction
from a series of meta and para substituted t-butylbenzenes by the
chlorine atom at 70°C has been carried out. Application of the
Hammett equation yielded a ρ value of -0.44 for the para compounds.
Possible explanations for the non-linearity...
A mechanism is a constrained kinematic chain composed of
gears, links, cams, or the like. Mechanisms are the building blocks
of all machines, and, as such, their evaluation is of considerable
importance to the mechanical designer. Because the mathematical
analyses of systems with four or more moving members has been...
A study of the immature stages of the subfamily Troginae in
North America was conducted from the spring of 1963 through the
spring of 1965, Larvae of Trox and Omorgus were easily reared in
the laboratory, but all attempts to rear the larvae of Glaresis were
unsuccessful,
The suberosus group,...
A liquid-extraction procedure for the concentration of zinc in
sea water was developed. The metal ion in sea water was chelated
with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate and extracted into an organic
solvent, methylisobutylketone, at the normal pH of sea water. A
back-extraction into HCl followed, providing a concentration of 30X
for the...
