An alternative to the Co-rich perovskites is the Sr-doped LaFe03 which has a lower thermal expansion coefficient and a superior chemical compatibility with doped Ce02 electrolyte. LaFe03 is expected to be more stable than Ni- and Co-based perovskites because the Fe3+ ion has the stable electronic configuration 3d5. It is, therefore, expected that compositions in the system (La,Sr)(Co,Fe)03 will have desirable properties for intermediate temperature SOFC cathode applications. 

Wade expanded the 1971 hypothesis to incorporate metal hydrocarbon 7T complexes, electron-rich aromatic ring systems, and aspects of transition metal cluster compounds [a parallel that had previously been noted by Corbett 19) for cationic bismuth clusters]. Rudolph and Pretzer chose to emphasize the redox nature of the closo, nido, and arachno interconversions within a given size framework, and based the attendant opening of the deltahedron after reduction (diagonally downward from left to right in Fig. 1) on first- and second-order Jahn-Teller distortions 115, 123). Rudolph and Pretzer have also successfully utilized the author s approach to predict the most stable configuration of SB9H9 (1-25) 115) and other thiaboranes. 

Different design concepts have been proposed to match the severe requirements of catalytic combustors. A main classification criterion is based on fuel/air stoichiometry in the catalyst section, which has a dominant effect on the selection of catalytic materials and on the operating characteristics of the combustor. In this section, only configurations based on lean catalytic combustion will be described. The peculiar characteristics of rich catalytic combustion will be described in a separate section. 

The first family is represented by peptides based on a, 3-dehydro a-amino adds in which a C=C bond confers rigidity and electronic Y-conjugation on the system (Section 11.1). Peptides rich in these amino acids are widespread in nature, particularly as antibiotics, and possess interesting conformational properties. 1-11 In addition to the E and Z configurational isomers, occurring when two different atoms (substituents) on CP are present, fully-extended, characteristically flat conformations or p-tums and 310/a-helices may be induced by u,p-dehydro a-amino acids. 

Assuming that the above enzymatic reaction was run in an ether-rich medium, the products can be isolated by thin-layer chromatography. Thus, the fatty acids released from the sn-2 position can be easily recovered as well as the lysophosphatidylethanolamine. The latter derivative will contain the fatty acyl groups associated with the sn-1 ester position. Base-catalyzed metha-nolysis of the lyso compound will produce the methyl esters. In the usual instance, these will contain mainly saturated chains. In any event the attack by phospholipase A2 can proceed smoothly to completion. These results would strongly support an sn-3 stereochemical configuration for the parent diacylphosphatidy lethanolamine.
