Another kind of dual activity was given to type I MAI by incorporating hydroxy-phenyl-propanedione-dioxime (HPO) group alternatively with ordinary azo group [Eq. (5)] [11]. 

Syndiotactic—the methyl groups alternate regularly from one side to the other. 

The oxidation described here was performed in 80% (v/v) acetonitrile — 20 % water (mole fraction of water = 0.42) at 35.0 °C. Figure 2 shows the selectivity as a function of the number of carbon atoms in R2. In the case of oxidation of la and 2a (R2 = branched alkyl groups), the selectivity reaches a sharp maximum (r = 2.4) at the isopentyl group (j = 2)l8). For R2 = straight-chain alkyl groups, alternation in the selectivity is clearly observed 18). The difference between the r value for la and 2a2 and that for la and 2h2 reaches up to 3.7. 

Substituents replacing the hydrogen atom of an alcoholic hydroxy group of a saccharide or saccharide derivative are denoted as O-substituents. The 0- locant is not repeated for multiple replacements by the same atom or group. Number locants are used as necessary to specify the positions of substituents they are not required for compounds fully substituted by identical groups. Alternative periphrase names for esters, ethers, etc. may be useful for indexing purposes. For cyclic acetals see 2-Carb-28. 

Polypropylene was not developed until the 1950s when Ziegler and Natta invented coordination catalysts. The structural difference between polyethylene and polypropylene is the methyl group in the propylene unit. Its presence makes a difference because it makes possible three different polymer structures Isotactic, with all methyl groups in the same plane makes the best plastic syndiotactic, in which the methyl groups alternate in the same plane and atactic, with the methyl groups randomly in and out of the plane is soft and rubbery. Polypropylene is used as film and in many structural forms. It is also used as fibers for carpet manufacture and for thermal clothing. 

Answer All three Me groups in diene (34) direct the same way. The product is ortho with respect to CMeg and CHO and para with respect to the other Me group. Alternatively we can argue that all three Me groups in-... 

The term tactidty refers to the configuration of polymer chains when their constituent monomer residues contain a steric center. Figure 1.8 illustrates the three principal classes of tacticity as exemplified by polypropylene. In isotactic polypropylene, the methyl groups are all positioned on the same side of the chain, as shown in Fig. 1.8 a). In syndiotactic polypropylene, the methyl groups alternate from one side to the other, as shown in Fig. 1.8 b). Random placement of the methyl groups results in atactic polypropylene, which is shown in Fig. 1.8 c). We can readily observe the effects of tacticity on the properties of polypropylene isotactic polypropylene is hard and stiff at room temperature, syndiotactic polypropylene is soft and flexible, and atactic polypropylene is soft and rubbery. 

The family of polymers that we refer to as nylons consists of molecules composed of amide groups alternating with short runs of methylene units. These molecules are also known as polyamides, which may be shortened to PA. The generic chemical structure of a nylon molecule is shown in Fig. 23.1. Variations on this basic structure include the length of the polymethylene sequences and the orientation of the amide groups relative to their neighbors. Figure 23.2 shows the chemical structures of nylon 6 and nylon 66, which are the two most common types of nylon. 

In the syndiotactic structure the substituent groups alternate regularly above and below the plane of the main chain.

Wollastonite is calciiun sihcate with a triclinic crystal system (P21). It has infinite-chain structure, with three tetrahedra per unit cell arranged parallel to y, this repeat unit consists of a pair of tetrahedra joined apex to apex as in the [Si07] group, alternating with a single tetrahedron with one edge parallel to the chain direction. Steady-state luminescence of wollastonite has been previously studied and luminescence of Mn, Fe and supposedly Cr has been proposed (Min ko et al. 1978). 

A consequence of the existence of this equilibrium was the formation of a monosulfide (114) in the reaction of the simple dehydrocyclodipeptide (113) with an alanine or phenylalanine residue, as shown in Scheme 36. The reaction could have proceeded by replacement of the OMe by SH, followed by protonation of the exocyclic double bond and intramolecular attack by the thiol group. Alternatively, the m-dithiol could have been in equilibrium with the /rani-dithiol in the latter, a traw.v-annular attack could have generated the monosulfide.
