Performance triggers structures

Loan structure is more than just leverage (an area previously discussed). It includes such elements as the loan amortisation schedule and any performance triggers such as minimum debt service cover ratios. These should also be considered in any credit analysis. 

The well balanced electronic and coordinative unsaturation of their Ru(II) center accounts for the high performance and the excellent tolerance of these complexes toward an array of polar functional groups. This discovery has triggered extensive follow up work and carbenes 1 now belong to the most popular metathesis catalysts which set the standards in this field [3]. Many elegant applications to the synthesis of complex target molecules and structurally diverse natural products highlight their truely remarkable scope. 

A family of molecular rotors (e.g., compound 4 in Fig. 17.4 a) has been designed to perform rotation under electrochemical stimulation.59 60 The molecules have a piano-stool structure with a stator meant to be grafted on an oxide surface and a rotor bearing redox-active groups, so that addressing the molecule with nanoelectrodes would trigger rotation (Fig. 17.4 b). To avoid intramolecular electron transfer between two electroactive units, which would compete with rotation, insulating... 

A striking example of the importance of the primary structure of polypeptides can be seen in the differences between oxytocin and vasopressin. Both of these molecules are nine-unit polypeptides that differ by only two amino acids (Fig. 22.19), yet they perform completely different functions in the human body. Oxytocin is a hormone that triggers contraction of the uterus and milk secretion. Vasopressin raises blood pressure levels and regulates kidney function.
