Building chemistry

After the fight, one of your lieutenants tells you he s never seen anyone fight like that, and that he s glad to serve under you. My guess is you ll like that junior officer. We all love admiration, and thus this builds Chemistry. 

Cold setting inorganic networks are in the research focus of building chemistry because these materials show an advantageous binder behaviour and can be produced under environmentally friendly conditions. The amorphous networks formed keep up their binder action in the high-temperature range, which is in contrast to the conventional binders like gypsum, lime or cement. 

There is the possibility of building up an extensive systematic chemistry of compounds containing boron-nitrogen bonds, analogous to the chemistry of carbon-carbon bonds but the reactivity of the B—bond is much greater than that of the C—C bond, so that we get physical, but not chemical, resemblances between analogous compounds.

In the fall of 1976 I had a call from a friend, Sid Benson, who, after a decade at the Stanford Research Institute, just returned to the University of Southern California (USC) in Los Angeles. He invited me for a visit, telling me about USC s plans to build up seleeted programs, ineluding chemistry. I visited USC and found it, with its close to downtown urban campus, quite different from the sprawling expanse of the eross-town eampus of UCLA, whieh I had visited on a number of oe-... 

I still did not have suitable low-temperature instrumentation of my own to carry out the low-temperature NMR studies, but Martin Saunders at Yale did. Thus our samples now traveled the Massachusetts Turnpike from Boston to New Haven, where with Marty we were able to study solutions of the norbornyl cation at increasingly lower temperatures using his home-built variable-temperature NMR instrumentation housed in the basement of the old Yale chemistry building. We...

As m most aspects of chemistry and biochemistry structure is the key to function We 11 explore the structure of proteins by first concentrating on their fundamental building block units the a ammo acids Then after developing the principles of peptide structure we 11 see how the insights gamed from these smaller molecules aid our under standing of proteins...

In collaboration with Wavefunction we have created a cross function CD ROM that contains an electronic model building kit and a rich collection of molecular models that reveal the interplay between electronic struc ture and reactivity m organic chemistry... 

In the next section we shall examine the mixing process for molecules which differ greatly in size, building on the principles reviewed in this section. The reader who desires additional review of these ideas will find this material discussed in detail in textbooks of physical chemistry. 

The assessment of the contribution of a product to the fire severity and the resulting hazard to people and property combines appropriate product flammabihty data, descriptions of the building and occupants, and computer software that includes the dynamics and chemistry of fires. This type of assessment offers benefits not available from stand-alone test methods quantitative appraisal of the incremental impact on fire safety of changes in a product appraisal of the use of a given material in a number of products and appraisal of the differing impacts of a product in different buildings and occupancies. One method, HAZARD I (11), has been used to determine that several commonly used fire-retardant—polymer systems reduced the overall fire hazard compared to similar nonfire retarded formulations (12). 

The catalytic oxidation of isophorone (259—261) or P-isophorone (262,263) to ketoisophorone [1125-21 -9] (2,6,6-trimethyl-2-cyclohexen-l,4-dione) has been reported. Ketoisophorone is a building block for synthesis in terpene chemistry and for producing compounds of the vitamin A and E series.
