Quantifier Elimination and Rectilinearisation Theorem for Generalised Quasianalytic Algebras

2013

International audience; An algebra of germs of real functions is generalised quasianalytic if to each element of the algebra we can associate, injectively, a power series with nonnegative real exponents. We prove a quantifier elimination and a rectilinearisation result for generalised quasianalytic algebras.

Expecting the unexpected: Quantifying the persistence of unexpected hypersurfaces

2021

If $X \subset \mathbb P^n$ is a reduced subscheme, we say that $X$ admits an unexpected hypersurface of degree $t$ for multiplicity $m$ if the imposition of having multiplicity $m$ at a general point $P$ fails to impose the expected number of conditions on the linear system of hypersurfaces of degree $t$ containing $X$. Conditions which either guarantee the occurrence of unexpected hypersurfaces, or which ensure that they cannot occur, are not well understand. We introduce new methods for studying unexpectedness, such as the use of generic initial ideals and partial elimination ideals to clarify when it can and when it cannot occur. We also exhibit algebraic and geometric properties of $X$ …

Bi-Level ventilation decreases pulmonary shunt and modulates neuroinflammation in a cardiopulmonary resuscitation model

2020

Background Optimal ventilation strategies during cardiopulmonary resuscitation are still heavily debated and poorly understood. So far, no convincing evidence could be presented in favour of outcome relevance and necessity of specific ventilation patterns. In recent years, alternative models to the guideline-based intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) have been proposed. In this randomized controlled trial, we evaluated a bi-level ventilation approach in a porcine model to assess possible physiological advantages for the pulmonary system as well as resulting changes in neuroinflammation compared to standard measures. Methods Sixteen male German landrace pigs were anesthetized a…

Reazione di eliminazione di Kemp in liquidi ionici: uno studio cinetico

Avvocatura, deontologia e concetto di diritto ovvero: perché studiare la deontologia forense fa bene alla filosofia del diritto

2021

The contribution examines the different versions of eliminativism concerning the concept of law (pragmatism, realism and reductivism), and shows that the very practice of law needs to focus on its concept.

Reinvestigation of the Pd-catalysed bis(silylation) of alkynes with 1,1,2,2-tetramethyl-1,2-bis(phenylthiomethyl)disilane: Unexpected formation of th…

2013

International audience; The bis(silylated) alkenes Z-(PhSCH2)Me2SiC(H)=C(Fc)SiMe2(CH2SPh) (2) and Z-(PhSCH2)Me2SiC(H)=C(bipheny)SiMe2(CH2SPh) (3) have been prepared by Pd-catalysed double silylation of ethynylferrocene and 4-ethynyl-1,1'-biphenyl in the presence of 1,1,2,2-tetramethyl-1,2-bis(phenylthiomethyl)disilane (1). A reinvestigation on the interaction of 1 with [PdCl2(PhCN)2] in technical-grade CH2Cl2 as solvent revealed competition between reduction to elemental palladium (due to oxidative addition of the Si-Si bond across Pd(II) and subsequent reductive elimination) and formation of an unusual eight-membered chelate complex cis-[PdCl2{(PhSCH2SiMe2)2O}] (4), which is fluxional in s…

Electrochemical and DFT studies of the oxidative decomposition of the trihydride complexes Cp*M(dppe)H3 (M = Mo, W) in acetonitrile

2006

International audience; A detailed electrochemical study of the oxidative decomposition of the trihydride complexes Cp*M(dppe)H3 (M = Mo, W) in acetonitrile is presented. For the Mo complex, the decomposition occurs by four different pathways involving classical and non-classical tautomers, whereas only the classical form is accessible for the W derivative. Each of the decomposition pathways has been quantitatively assessed by analyses of the linear sweep voltammograms. In addition to the previously established (B. Pleune, D. Morales, R. Meunier-Prest, P. Richard, E. Collange, J. C. Fettinger and R. Poli, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1999, 121, 2209–2225) deprotonation, disproportionation, and H2 red…

Generation, Characterization, and Electrochemical Behavior of the Palladium-Hydride Cluster [Pd3(dppm)3(3-CO)(3-H)]+ (dppm=Bis(diphenylphosphinometha…

2007

Addition of formate on the dicationic cluster [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3)-CO)](2+) (dppm=bis(diphenylphosphinomethane) affords quantitatively the hydride cluster [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3)-CO)(mu(3)-H)](+). This new palladium-hydride cluster has been characterised by (1)H NMR, (31)P NMR and UV/Vis spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The unambiguous identification of the capping hydride was made from (2)H NMR spectroscopy by using DCO(2) (-) as starting material. The mechanism of the hydride complex formation was investigated by UV/Vis stopped-flow methods. The kinetic data are consistent with a two-step process involving: 1) host-guest interactions between HCO(2) (-) and [Pd(3)(dppm)(3)(mu(3…

An unprecedented, bridged dihydrogen complex of a cofacial metallodiporphyrin and its relevance to the bimolecular reductive elimination of hydrogen

1990

Recently, the authors characterized the first metalloporphyrin dihydrogen complex, Os(OEP)(H{sub 2}), and proposed that a similar ruthenium porphyrin dihydrogen complex, Ru(OEP)(H{sub 2}), is involved as an intermediate in the catalytic H/D isotopic exchange between water and hydrogen. They now report that treatment of a metal-metal-bonded cofacial ruthenium porphyrin dimer with a sterically bulky ligand in the presence of hydrogen gas has yielded the first known complex containing a dihydrogen ligand bound between two metals. Such a bridged dihydrogen complex is proposed as an intermediate in the bimolecular elimination of dihydrogen from two metalloporphyrin hydrides.

Unique distal size selectivity with a digold catalyst during alkyne homocoupling

2015

Metal-catalysed chemical reactions are often controlled by steric hindrance around the metal atom and it is rare that substituents far away of the reaction site could be differentiated during reaction, particularly if they are simple alkyl groups. Here we show that a gold catalyst is able to discriminate between linear carbon alkynes with 10 or 12 atoms in the chain during the oxidative homocoupling of alkynes: the former is fully reactive and the latter is practically unreactive. We present experimental evidences, which support that the distal size selectivity occurs by the impossibility of transmetallating two long alkyl chains in an A-framed, mixed-valence digold (I, III) acetylide compl…
