There is provided a complex having a specified chemical structure and an asymmetric catalyst using such a complex. Further, an epoxidation of amine or ketone is enantioselectively conducted by using such an asymmetric catalyst.

A circuit is capable of performing a complex division and dual complex multiplication. The complex division involves dividing a first complex value by a second complex value and the dual complex multiplication involves multiplying a third complex value by a fourth complex value and a fifth complex value by a sixth complex value. The circuit comprises a first input configured to receive the first and second complex values when the circuit is performing the complex division and the third and fourt...

High speed complex logic circuitry powered solely by clock signals. Such circuitry may be implemented in optical, electrical or other means, involving any medium or substrate as desired.

A bromine chloride complex of p-dioxane has been discovered which is useful as a solid source of bromine chloride. A dioxane-bromine chloride complex formed by mixing bromine chloride with dioxane in methylene chloride at 10.degree. C. has been used to selectively brominate salicylanilide to give an 88 percent yield of 3,4',5-tribromosalicylanilide.

Compositions of matter and methods of preparation are described for water and air stable, square planar transition metal double-complex salts which contain isonitrile ligands derivatized with long chain aliphatic groups. These salts are composed of two metal-containing complex ions: the cation is a tetrakis isonitrile metal ion and the anion is a tetrahalometallate or tetracyanometallate. These double-complex salts exhibit the novel property of thermochromism and are useful as temperature indica...

A platinum complex having a superior antitumor activity is disclosed. The platinum complex has a structure represented by the formula: ##STR1## wherein A and B independently represent a lower alkanoyloxy group which may have a halogen atom substituent, or in combination represent a group: ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, or a lower alkyl group, or in combination with each other and with the adjacent carbon atom a cyclobutane ring, an...

The chlorosucrose sweetener known as sucralose is prepared in a thermally stable composition by co-crystallization with a cyclodextrin. The resulting crystalline product may be comminuted to form particles of desired size for use as a sweetener component in place of or in addition to known sweeteners such as sucrose, saccharin and the like, in a variety of foods, comestibles, and oral medications. The preparation of the stabilized sucralose compositions of the present invention constitutes a mol...

This invention relates to hot melt adhesive compositions which includes a polymer complex of an amine containing polymer and a co- or terpolymer, about 3 to about 100 parts by weight of a polymer complex per 100 parts by weight of the highly unsaturated hydrocarbon rubber, wherein the neutralized sulfonated elastomeric polymer has about 0.2 to about 5 weight percent of chemically combined sulfur and about 25 to about 200 parts by weight of a hydrocarbon resin of a petroleum or coal tar distillat...

Novel di(poly-substituted cyclopentadienyl)-allylic uranium complexes can be employed to catalyze the dimerization of propylene to form 4-methyl-1-pentene selectively. The novel catalyst complexes can be prepared from novel di(poly-substituted cyclopentadienyl)-U-(IV) monohalo monoallylic complexes.

A lubricating composition of about 90 to about 99% by weight of a lubricant and about 1 to about 5% by weight of an organometallic phthalocynaine, preferably a polymeric organometallic phthalocyanine complex, including nitrogen-substituted analogues thereof, where the complexed metal ion is preferably a Group IVA metal and provides increased time of machine operation to failure by improving oil lubricated bearing performance. Phthalocynanine peripheral ring substituents and attached to the phtha...
