Resonance Analysis for Tilted Support Spring Coupled Nonlinear Packaging System Applying Variational Iteration Method
submitted by pedretti 8 minutes ago - Topic: Civil Engineering
The coupled nonlinear dynamical equations were developed for a tilted spring packaging system with critical components. The approximate solution and resonance conditions of system were obtained applying a variational iteration method. The resonance conditions, which should be avoided in the packa...



Maximum Likelihood Estimation of the VAR(1) Model Parameters with Missing Observations
submitted by pedretti 8 minutes ago - Topic: Civil Engineering
Missing-data problems are extremely common in practice. To achieve reliable inferential results, we need to take into account this feature of the data. Suppose that the univariate data set under analysis has missing observations. This paper examines the impact of selecting an auxiliary complete d...

Iron-Salt-Promoted Highly Regioselective α and β Hydrophosphination of Alkenyl Arenes
submitted by ditzler 8 minutes ago - Topic: Engineering
Iron(ic) phosphination: The iron-promoted hydrophosphination of alkenyl arenes with diphenylphosphine as phosphinating agent has been established. This method provides efficient access to diarylalkylphosphines. The regioselectivity of the reaction can be fine-tuned by the choice of the iron salts...

Experimental and Computational Studies on the Formation of Three para-Benzyne Analogues in the Gas Phase
submitted by ditzler 8 minutes ago - Topic: Engineering
Experimental and computational studies on the formation of three gaseous, positively-charged para-benzyne analogues in a Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) mass spectrometer are reported. The structures of the cations were examined by isolating them and allowing them to react with...

Bisguanidines with Biphenyl, Binaphthyl, and Bipyridyl Cores: Proton-Sponge Properties and Coordination Chemistry
submitted by ditzler 8 minutes ago - Topic: Engineering
Herein, we report on the synthesis, protonation, and coordination chemistry of chelating guanidine ligands with biphenyl, binaphthyl, and bipyridyl backbones. The ligands are shown to be proton sponges, and this protonation was studied experimentally and by using quantum-chemical calculations. Gr...



Salimabromide: Unexpected Chemistry from the Obligate Marine Myxobacterium Enhygromxya salina
submitted by ditzler 8 minutes ago - Topic: Engineering
Marine myxobacteria (Enhygromyxa, Plesiocystis, Pseudoenhygromyxa, Haliangium) are phylogenetically distant from their terrestrial counterparts. Salimabromide is the first natural product from the Plesiocystis/Enhygromyxa clade of obligatory marine myxobacteria. Salimabromide has a new tetracycli...

Ion-Pair-Based Assemblies Comprising Pyrrole–Pyrazole Hybrids
submitted by ditzler 8 minutes ago - Topic: Engineering
Modified 3,5-dipyrrolylpyrazole (DPP) derivatives in their protonated form produce planar [2+2]-type complexes with trifluoroacetate (TFA) ions. These complexes serve as constituent components of ion-pair-based assemblies. An essential strategy for the construction of dimension-controlled organiz...

Multistimuli-Responsive Supramolecular Organogels Formed by Low-Molecular-Weight Peptides Bearing Side-Chain Azobenzene Moieties
submitted by ditzler 8 minutes ago - Topic: Engineering
This work demonstrates that the incorporation of azobenzene residues into the side chain of low-molecular-weight peptides can modulate their self-assembly process in organic solvents leading to the formation of stimuli responsive physical organogels. The major driving forces for the gelation proc...

Quantum Chemical Study of the Reactions between Pd+/Pt+ and H2O/H2S
submitted by ditzler 8 minutes ago - Topic: Engineering
The study of the reactions of water and hydrogen sulfide with palladium and platinum cations has been completed in this work, in both low- and high-spin states. Our calculations predict that only the formation of platinum sulfide is exothermic (in both spin states), whereas for the remaining spec...
