In an earlier work, we have proposed a theoretical procedure for the spectroscopy of antiferromagnetically (AF) coupled transition-metal dimers and have successfully applied this approach to the electronic absorption spectrum of model 2-Fe ferredoxin. In this work we apply this same procedure to the [Fe2in - 82) P o - CeH48)2)2 complex in order to better understand the electronic structure of this compound. As in our previous work" we base our analysis on the Intermediate Neglect of the Differential Overlap model parameterized for spectroscopy (INDO/S), utilizing a procedure outlined in detail in Reference 4. 

The H,H COSY spectrum of model compound 1 is shown in Fig. 24. In fact you can see a total of three spectra the central square which is the actual 2D spectrum and two proton ID spectra at the top and on the left. The computer software generates this combination of spectra automatically using a previously recorded ID proton spectrum. 

The concept of the reaction-rate model should be considered to be more flexible than any mechanistically oriented view will allow. In particular, for any reacting system an entire spectrum of models is possible, each of which fits certain overlapping ranges of the experimental variables. This spectrum includes the purely empirical models, models accurately describing every detail of the reaction mechanism, and many models between these extremes. In most applications, we should proceed as far toward the theoretical extreme as is permitted by optimum use of our resources of time and money. For certain industrial applications, for example, the closer the model approaches...

In theoretical population ecology, there is a broad spectrum of model types. Although in principle this spectrum is a continuum, some major types can be identified. Different classifications exist (Grimm and Railsback 2005, Chapter 10), but in the context of pesticide risk assessment, it is sufficient to distinguish 3 main classes differential and difference equations, matrix models, and individual- or agent-based simulation models (IBMs or ABMs). These model types are described in more detail in Chapters 3, 5, 6, and 7.

Habli et al. [19] propose a process for model-based assurance for justifying automotive functional safety. They use SysML and GSN as graphical notations. Their goal and ours is similar. We both want to support a method based on ISO 26262 to derive functional safety requirements. In contrast to their work, we use UML, which gives us a broader spectrum of modeling possibilities. Furthermore, we provide tool support for our method and equipped our approach with formal consistency checks on the model. These checks can be automatically checked by our tool. In addition, our way of modeling allows us to trace elements within our models. 

In order to find out, if transesterification of the acetate groups of 8 is steri-cally hindered, a model reaction with silylated 4-methylbenzoic acid was conducted (eq. 7). The NMR spectrum of model compound 9 proved diat diis condensation reaction was successfiil. The results of the analogous polycondensations of 1 and 8 are summarized in Table 4. In preliminary experiments not listed in Table 4, it was found that reaction times of 8 h are required to obtain nearly quantitative conversions. Correspondingly, both the inherent viscosities and the DP s determined fi om the NMR spectra (Figure 4) parallel the monomer/star-center ratio.
