Content. After a brief overview of molecular collisions and interactions, dipole radiation, and instrumentation (Chapter 2), we consider examples of measured collision-induced spectra, from the simplest systems (rare gas mixtures at low density) to the more complex molecular systems. Chapter 3 reviews the measurements. It is divided into three parts translational, rototranslational and rotovibrational induced spectra. Each of these considers the binary and ternary spectra, and van der Waals molecules we also take a brief look at the spectra of dense systems (liquids and solids). Once the experimental evidence is collected and understood in terms of simple models, a more theoretical approach is chosen for the discussion of induced dipole moments (Chapter 4) and the spectra (Chapters 5 and 6). Chapters 3 through 6 are the backbone of the book. Related topics, such as redistribution of radiation, electronic collision-induced absorption and emission, etc., and applications are considered in Chapter 7. 

Mechanistic studies of the C-H activation by aqueous platinum complexes and related topics have been also desaibed in recent publications [42], Some reactions with participation of platinum derivatives and their mechanisms are discussed also in other chapters of this book.

At least twelve major books or ries of books relating to petroleum refining were published prior to 1939, but only a few cf these have been revised and scarcely any new publications have appeared. Undoubtedly the rapidly growing complexity of the industry and the enormity of the current literature have been a discouragement to authors. To properly explore the current literature would require the continuous services of... 

However, in the case of a root cause analysis system, a much more comprehensive evaluation of the structure of the accident is required. This is necessary to unravel the often complex chain of events and contributing causes that led to the accident occurring. A number of techniques are available to describe complex accidents. Some of these, such as STEP (Sequential Timed Event Plotting) involve the use of charting methods to track the ways in which process and human events combine to give rise to accidents. CCPS (1992d) describes many of these techniques. A case study involving a hydrocarbon leak is used to illustrate the STEP technique in Chapter 7 of this book. The STEP method and related techniques will be described in Section 6.8.3. 

In this chapter we discuss host-guest complexes of arenediazonium salts with crown ethers and related compounds. Transition metal complexes of arenediazonium ions are treated together with those of dinitrogen and of diazoalkanes in our second book (Zollinger, 1995, Sec. 10.1). 

Certain groups of organocobalt(III) complexes have been dealt with in previous reviews. The organo-corrinoids have been mentioned in all reviews on vitamin B, 2 since 1961, when the coenzyme form was identified as an organometallic compound [see, for example, (79, 178) and references therein]. The literature on the corrinoids is too extensive to be treated comprehensively here and for details and references readers are referred to the book on The Inorganic Chemistry of Vitamin B,2 (136)certain other aspects of the organometallic chemistry of cobalt corrinoids are treated elsewhere (137). The pentacyanides were reviewed in 1967 (105), the DMG complexes (cobaloximes) in 1968 (145), and some aspects of salen, BAE, and related complexes in 1970 (17). 

Cyclophosphazenes are a fascinating group of inorganic heterocyclic compounds whose chemistry is multi-faceted, well developed and reasonably well understood. They are closely related to the linear poly-phosphazenes this relationship is unlike any other existing between ring-polymer systems. Although cyclic siloxanes and polysiloxanes have a close interrelationship, the number and types of cyclophospha-zene derivatives that are known, together with their exact counterparts in polyphosphazenes, underscore the utility of cyclophosphazenes as models for the more complex polyphosphazenes. The literature on cyclophosphazenes has appeared earlier in the form of books (1,2), chapters of books (3-5), authoritative compilations of data (6,7), and several reviews (8-21). The current literature on this subject is reported annually in the Specialist Periodic Reports published by the Royal Society of chemistry (22). This review deals mostly with chlorocyclo-... 

In 1966, Nozaki et al. reported that the decomposition of o-diazo-esters by a copper chiral Schiff base complex in the presence of olefins gave optically active cyclopropanes (Scheme 58).220 221 Following this seminal discovery, Aratani et al. commenced an extensive study of the chiral salicylaldimine ligand and developed highly enantioselective and industrially useful cyclopropanation.222-224 Since then, various complexes have been prepared and applied to asymmetric cyclo-propanation. In this section, however, only selected examples of cyclopropanations using diazo compounds are discussed. For a more detailed discussion of asymmetric cyclopropanation and related reactions, see reviews and books.17-21,225... 

Owing to the 7tCc-ocrc CT interactions, the usual equivalence between the two Kekule structures of benzene is broken and the ring distorts strongly to D3h symmetry, with pronounced alternation (by 0.02 A) of C=C bond lengths. Complexes of this type are evidently closely related to the metallocene sandwich compounds discussed elsewhere in this book (Section 4.9.5), with the benzene molecule described as a tridentate ligand in the language of metal coordination chemistry. 

The sodium nitrate was used as a fertilizer. The evolution of the process was complex the book referenced below lists 63 patents relating to it. It was installed by the Solvay Process Company at Hopewell, VA in the 1930s it was in operation there, subsequently under the management of the Allied Chemical Corporation until the 1950s.
