Excel Templates

This section describes the Excei tempiates available from the book website. All templates have been tested on Excel 2013 and 2010. All should work on Excel 2007 as well. For the few that require special formulae, a separate Excel 2007 version has been included. 

The following are some useful remainders when using the templates  

Adding new rows new rows should be entered inside the thick-bordered area. This will automatically update aU formulae to include the new row. This can be accomplished by right-clicking on the appropriate row name and selecting Insert. A row wiU be inserted above the selected row. See Fig. 8.16 for an example. 

Formulae most formulae can be dragged down or across to fill the new data. It is suggested that you drag from the first row (or column) down to the last to make sure that everything is properly aligned.

Oxadiazole amine 174 serves as an excellent template for the introduction of a wide variety of 5-amido side chains onto the 1,2,4-oxadiazole nucleus (Equation 26), and several such products 175 are potent inhibitors of the tyrosine kinase ZAP-70 <1999BML3009>. Amide or pseudopeptide side chains can also be introduced by the... 

The Aspen Properties implementation of the NRLT-SAC method is available as a template. aprbkp file to license holders of Aspen Properties or Aspen Plus release 12.1 or above, by contacting Aspen s support centre or regional sales offices. The template is distributed with an Excel interface to simplify the data regression process and is suitable for non-expert users of Aspen Properties. Numerous Excel templates are available for data analysis and design calculations, based on the NRTL-SAC model. 

The first five parameters may be regressed against experimental data, however, only parameters that are found in the Property / Parameters folder will be updated automatically at the end of a regression. The KspA parameter should be updated manually this task is done automatically by the Microsoft Excel Template.

We have developed a new process to improve the efficiency of sample reanalysis. This process includes four steps data review, replating, reanalysis, and data alignment. We have also generated an Excel template, a Gilson s Unipoint protocol, and an in-house visual basic program to automate the process. 

A Gilson liquid handler was programmed with the Unipoint software to dilute and reformat failed samples. A volume of 120 pi of solvent (methanol unless specified otherwise) was added to each failed vial. The solution was taken up and released by the sampling needle three times to ensure efficient mixing. A fraction of the liquid was then transferred to the target plate. The fraction volume was determined on the Excel template by the dilution factor, for example 40 pi for 2 1 dilution. Solvent was allowed to evaporate at ambient temperature from the new plate, and 200 pi of solvent was then added to each well in the plate. The new plate, reformatted and compressed, was analyzed with the MUX-LCT system using the sample fist from the template. Using this new format, the 24 samples in the example above (Fig. 6) were reanalyzed in three runs (13.5 min) instead of 24 runs (108 min). This represents an 8-fold improvement in efficiency. 

We speculated earlier whether a fluoride ligand could add catalytic properties to our chiral dialkoxy cyclopentadienyltitanium complexes. Chlorotitanium-TADDOLate 17 - an excellent template for controlling the stereochemistry of stoichiometric additions also to chiral aldehydes... 

The Department of Homeland Security has revised the structure of the NIMS and has required its use for all public safety agencies that request federal grant funds. Developed by communications and disaster experts, the system provides an excellent template to enable and to foster communication and coordination and should provide a foundation for disaster preparedness. All planners must be familiar with NIMS and consider the issues discussed and solutions proposed in this document (Department of Homeland Security, 2006). 

Cyclooctatetraene complexes of hafnium have proved to be excellent templates for the cyclotrimerization of Bu C P, whereby according to the particular reaction conditions complexes of different cyclotrimers were constructed. 

Failure-mode effect analysis is easily carried out using spreadsheets. A Microsoft Excel template is available in the online material at http //books.elsevier.com/companions and is given in Appendix G. Additional information on FMEA is given by Birolini (2004), Dodson and Nolan (1999), and Stamatis (1995). 

After having exploited the use of reconstructed metal surfaces and vicinal surfaces as templates we will now turn to metal films. Since it has been shown that the nanopatterns of the above mentioned surfaces are in many cases excellent templates for overlayer growth the same can be expected for nanostructured metal films. Indeed a number of such systems have been investigated in terms of their potential use as templates. As the first example we refer to the homoepitaxial growth of Ag on the reconstructed 2 ML thick Ag film on Pt(l 11) (see Fig. 10). Already in 1995 Brune et al. were able to show that further Ag deposition at 100 K on this specific surface leads to the ordered growth of Ag islands [169,170]. Later it was reasoned that the ordering occurs due to the confined nucleation of adatoms within the superstructure cells of the periodic surface dislocation network [171]. The same effect is also present for the deposition of mass select Ag7 clusters [172] and Fe film growth on 2 ML Cu on Pt(l 1 1) [170]. 

Fortunately, computers and tools to handle uncertainty and risk are widely available these days Risk (Palisade http //www.palisade.com). Crystal Ball (Decision Engineering, http //www.crystalbaU.com) Risk Analyzer (Macro Systems, http //www.macrosysinc.com/), Risk- -(C/S Solutions, http //www.cs-solutions.com) among many others. In other efforts, Byrd and Chung (1998) prepared a program for DOE to assess risk in petroleum exploration. They use decision trees. There are some Excel templates used in chemical engineering classes (O Donnel etal, 2002). Therefore,... 

Metal ions are excellent templates to build >2 and octupolar second-order NLO chromophores therefore their associations with functionalized bip5nidyl ligands give rise to octahedral and tetrahedral metal complexes with large quadratic hyperpolarizabilities [76]. The adequate functionalization of these octupoles allows their incorporation into macromolecular architectures such as polymers and metal-lodendrimers [76]. Various octupolar tris chelated Ru complexes are characterized by a significant second-order NLO response as evidenced by HRS [18]. 

The helical superstructures of PPy and PEDOT could be prepared via the electrochemical polymerization using anionic synthetic lipid assemblies [234]. Since the oxidative polymerization of corresponding monomers produces cationic intermediates, the anionic assemblies acted as an excellent template owing to the mutual electrostatic attractive force. 

A set of EXCEL templates and macros for analysing AutoMonitor output has been developed by Dr Diana Kombrot, of Hatfield Polytechnic. At present these are tailored for the analysis of monitor output from HyperCard Basic Concepts . Their use is reported by Kombrot and Macleod [6]. Such templates have development potential for more general use. 

Further development of the system is proposed in HyperCard 2.0, together with the design and development of generalisable sets of EXCEL templates for analysis of AutoMonitor output. 

A flow chart for the procedures is shown in Figure 6. The main control program for the automated assay was programmed with Visual Basic . The e-sco unit was remotely controlled through its proprietary ActiveX interface. An EXCEL template file contained all relevant information about the sample and the desired automatic processing (number of samples, spectrum file names, peak position and line width). At the end of the assay, the measurement results and signal intensity plots are generated automatically. 

The rings of carbohydrate derivatives are excellent templates upon which a wealth of stereochemical features may be assembled, as was implied above in discussing the attributes of carbohydrate synthons. Having served its stereochemical purpose the sugar moiety may be destroyed so that it does not exist as a discrete entity in the product, although sections of it may survive.
