We present a first-principles calculation of the theoretical shear strength of the Al\ensuremath{\Sigma}3(112\ifmmode\bar\else\textasciimacron\fi{}) tilt boundary. Here we replace the usual \ensuremath{\gamma} surface (defined by rigid atomic translations parallel to the boundary) by a ``generalized \ensuremath{\gamma…

The original structure of calditol--that is, an open-chain branched nonitol--has recently been questioned by various research groups and cyclopentane-based structures have been proposed. To unambiguously clear up this confusion, four isomeric cyclopentane candidates 26-29 have been synthesized. Of these, compound 27 w…

We analyze the beating behavior of the magnetic quantum oscillations in a layered metal under the conditions when the cyclotron energy $\ensuremath{\Elzxh}{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{c}$ is comparable to the interlayer transfer energy t. Using a simple semiclassical model, we show that the positions of the beats in the int…

The preparation of a series of new macrocyclic carbodiazasilane molecules functionalized with the monoanionic [2,6-(CH2NMe2)2C6H3](-)[triple bond]N,C,N-pincer ligand has been accomplished. Palladation of these systems was possible through oxidative addition with [Pd(dba)2] affording exclusive formation of the meso dia…

An AgI-promoted meso–meso coupling reaction has been extended to prepare discrete 100 nm long linear arrays of porphyrins. Oxidation of the resulting phenyl end-capped meso–meso linked porphyrins using a combination of 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) and ScIII(OTf)3 directly produces fully π-conjugated…

Phenylphosphonic acid undergoes a topotactic reation with the available hydroxyls on the gibbsite sheet of kaolin and halloysite during reflux in a water–acteone mixture at 70 °C. The reaction occurs much more rapidly with halloysite than with kaolin and the number of hydroxyls consumed is much higher for the halloysi…
