Variety of characteristics

Reaction of Enolate Anions. In the presence of certain bases, eg, sodium alkoxide, an ester having a hydrogen on the a-carbon atom undergoes a wide variety of characteristic enolate reactions. Mechanistically, the base removes a proton from the a-carbon, giving an enolate that then can react with an electrophile. Depending on the final product, the base may be consumed stoichiometricaHy or may function as a catalyst. Eor example, the sodium alkoxide used in the Claisen condensation is a catalyst ... 

All of the material outlined in this introductory section suggests strongly that the coals of the world almost certainly will show a wide variety of characteristics, due to differing... 

Good laboratory practice (or good scientific practice) is the term used to describe how chemists, and indeed other scientists, should go about their day-to-day work. It covers a variety of characteristics, such as tidiness, cleanliness, care, thoughtfulness, safety, organization and self-discipline. A chemist who has these qualities and uses them is more likely to get the correct results, and get them first time, than someone who does not have them. 

Attribute Ratings. Panelists perceive a variety of characteristics in products. When the product developer systematically varies the formulation over a systematically wide range, the panelist may perceive an entire spectrum of different characteristics. One can trace these characteristics back to the specified formulation levels, but only if the panelist has had a chance to evaluate the characteristics by means of scaling. In this study the panelists rated a variety of different attributes after tasting each digestive sample. 

Reaction of Enolate Anions. In the presence of certain bases, eg. sodium alkoxide. an ester having a hydrogen on the or-carbon atom undergoes a wide variety of characteristic enolale reactions. 

Numerous studies about phases and phase transitions detected by optical investigations of f elements have been published by Haire, Peterson, and co-workers. In many cases they used the Eu3+ ion to correlate the luminescence properties with structural changes. The Eu3+ ion exhibits a variety of characteristic transitions serving as a fingerprint for the structure (Chen et al., 1992e). However, in view of the problematic situation with respect to the local symmetry in the case of doped ions mentioned above, there has been some discussion on whether the Eu3+ ion or f elements in general can be used as indicators of the actual host structure or not (Tanner and Rudowicz, 1993 Stump et al., 1993). In summary, it must be concluded that the spectral/structural correlation has limitations especially in the case of doped ions where deviations between local and real site symmetry may readily occur. 

Following a variational solution of the ground (Is) and first excited state (2p) of the electron in this potential well, various other polarization terms are added and a variety of characteristics for the solvated electron (optical transition energy, heat of solution, etc.) can be calculated (101,105). For illustrative purposes, we shall utilize this simple model because of its obvious transparency in relating certain (macroscopic) features of solvent properties to the energy levels and wave functions for the solvated electron in polar solvents. 

Soils exhibit a large variety of characteristics that are used to classify them for various purposes, including crop production, road construction, and waste disposal. The parent rocks from which soils are formed obviously play a strong role in determining the composition of soils. Other soil characteristics include strength, workability, soil particle size, permeability, and degree of maturity. 

Molecular dynamics in an intense laser field (1012 to 1015 W/cm2) has proved to be one of the most attractive research fields in molecular science over the last few decades. From pioneering studies [1—5], it has been revealed that a molecule present in an intense light held exhibits a variety of characteristic dynamical processes, such as alignment of its principal molecular axis, ultrafast structural deformation, enhanced ionization, and bond-breaking associated with multiple ionization (known as a Coulomb explosion ). 

The ratio of reagents affects dramatically the composition of the complexes resulted. In this respect PCMU differ greatly from LMWM which in most cases are distinguished by the formation of complexes with the same composition irrespective of the ratio of the starting reagents. In PCMU chemistry, however, such a relationship has a marked effect on a variety of characteristics of corresponding complexes, such as composition, solubility, etc. 

An inhomogeneous broadening refers to the collective motion frequency of the adsorbate and is the consequence of an inhomogeneous distribution of individual molecules either due to heterogeneity of adsorption sites or to nonhomogeneous in-termolecular distances. Whilst for a perfect ordered layer a sharp, symmetric band is expected, random occupation, island formation, and repulsive or attractive interactions give rise to a variety of characteristic lineshapes [21]. 

Supercritical fluids (SCF) possess a variety of characteristics that make them particularly attractive for separation processes. These Include both high dlffuslvlty, low viscosity and high solubilities of heavy organic solutes. A wide range of applications have been proposed and are compiled In several review articles and monographs (1-4). 

The effect of the acidity of polyfunctional zeolite catalysts on their activity in benzene alkylation by propene has been examined.Crystalline zeolites exist with a variety of characteristic pore and channel sizes. In the case of ZSM-5 zeolite, the interconnected channels formed by 10-membered rings of oxygen atoms allows certain benzene derivatives to fit rather closely, diffuse into the pores, and, after undergoing a reaction, diffuse out. This is the origin of the high para selectivity in reactions such as alkylation of toluene by methanol catalyzed by zeolites like ZSM-5 and related modifications. ... 

The liver possesses a variety of characteristics that make this organ very attractive for gene therapy. The proportion of administered macromolecules internalized by hepatocytes depends on their particle size and biochemical characteristics. Only relatively small molecules can pass the fenestrae of sinusoidal endothelial cells in... 

A key element is the method of allocating subjects to the treatment groups. Subjects may possess a variety of characteristics that could influence... 

Libraries used for lead finding are, by nature, diverse, but screening places the added demand that this diversity be describable we need to be able to register and store a variety of characteristics associated with each individual compound, as well as collate chemical and biological information. Not only is it necessary to keep track of each compound, the... 

Since the first edition of this book was issued in 1984, a number of new mac-rolides with a variety of characteristics involving not only the structure but also the biological activity have been discovered. Many of these compounds are the results of research achievements on marine natural products that have seen remarkable development during these 18 years. And macrolides having peculiar structures have been chosen as targets for organic syntheses and have contributed greatly to the development of this field.
