Isomerically pure cis,cis,trans-1-pheny1-1,3,5-
heptatriene was prepared and cyclized. Ring closure
was followed by a 1,5 hydrogen shift, and the only product
observed was 1-phenyl -6-methyl -1,3-cyclohexadiene.
Rough first order rate constants for thermolysis and
the hydrogen shift were determined. Kinetic estimates
indicate that the report of disallowed product in a...
Part 1
The pyrolysis of cis-1-trimethylsiloxy-1-cyclopr opyl-3-cyclononene in the temperature range 285-350° is described. Instead
of siloxy-Cope rearrangement, undesired desiloxylation took place.
Part 2
Gas-phase pyrolytic rearrangement of 2-phenyl-1-trimethylsiloxy-1-vinylcyclononane was investigated in a static system
in the temperature range 213-330°. It was discovered that
three major products resulted: cis- and...
Both oxy-Cope and siloxy-Cope rearrangements involve
(1, 3) and (3, 3) sigrnatropic shifts. Both the concerted mechanism,
and the stepwise mechanism via a diradical intermediate are possible.
In a cyclic system such as cis-l-vinylcyclooct-3-en-l-ol, the thermal
rearrangement takes place preferably through a diradical intermediate.
At high temperature, the reaction also...
Certain 2- chioroethyl nitrosoureas have been demonstrated
to be highly specific inactivators of chymotrypsin
in vitro and glutathione reductase, both in vivo and in
isolated rat hepatocytes. The inactivation of glutathione
reductase in isolated hepatocytes resulted in an increased
sensitivity toward an adriamycin induced oxidative
challenge.
Prolonged incubation of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-([1-¹⁴...
This thesis examines the interconnection between the in vitro and in
vivo phosphorylation of rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase. The first goal
of the project was to show whether a novel site of rabbit muscle
phosphofructokinase that is subject to in vitro phosphorylation, serine 376,
may also become phosphorylated in vivo. Evidence...

Lead-free Bi(Mg₁/₂Ti₁/₂)O₃-(Bi₁/₂K₁/₂)TiO₃-(Bi₁/₂Na₁/₂)TiO₃ (BMT-BKT-BNT) ceramics have
been shown to exhibit large electromechanical strains under high electric fields along with
negligible fatigue under strong electric fields. To investigate the role of point defects on the
fatigue characteristics, the composition 5BMT-40BKT-55BNT was doped to incorporate acceptor and
donor defects on the A and...
Tenure has often been situated as a non-negotiable tenet of modern academia, a status granted after a probationary period and extensive review, and critical for academic freedom. However, the processes by which promotion and tenure (P&T) are vetted depart in practice from the meritocratic ideal that is frequently used to...
Continuous integration (CI) systems automate the compilation, building, and testing of software. Despite CI being one of the most widely used processes in software engineering, we do not know what motivates developers to use CI, and what barriers and unmet needs they face. Without such knowledge developers make easily avoidable...
Neryl pyrophosphate, rather than geranyl pyrophosphate, is
believed to be the immediate biological precursor of the cyclohexanoid
monoterpenes because the cis-2, 3-double bond readily permits cyclization.
Biosynthesis of neryl pyrophosphate could occur by either of
two principal mechanisms: direct cis condensation of dimethylallyl
pyrophosphate with isopentenyl pyrophosphate or trans-cis isomerization...
Materials based on BiMO₃-modified BaTiO₃ have been shown to exhibit a number of attractive electrical and electromechanical properties. In addition, many of the materials in this broad family exhibit reduced sintering temperatures for densification as compared to pure BaTiO₃. We report here a study of the phase evolution and sintering...
By inverting EarthScope long-period magnetotelluric (MT) data from the southeastern United States (SEUS), we obtain electrical conductivity images that provides key insights into the geodynamics of this region.

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is an enveloped, single-stranded positive-sense RNA virus. The BVDV genome is about 12.5 kb long and consists of a single open reading frame (ORF) flanked by untranslated regions at the 5' and 3' ends (5'-UTR and 3'- UTR, respectively). To investigate the role of cis-sequences...
Coreplication experiments have revealed that replication of
turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV) RNA in turnip protoplasts is cis-preferential.
Genomes encoding mutant p141 or p66, proteins
essential for virus replication, were inefficiently rescued by a
helper genome. One model for the cis-preferential replication of
TYMV is that p66 and p141 form...
