John L. Boatwright Letters, MSS.1645
No full textAbstract: Twelve letters from John L. Boatwright, Confederate Army ordnance office, to his wife, December 22, 1863-May 14, 1864.Scope and Content Note: This collection consists of twelve letters from Boatwright, an Ordinance officer in the Confederate Army, stationed at Savannah, Georgia, to his wife in Columbia, South Carolina, although the letters suggest that the Boatwrights were from Virginia. The earliest letter is dated December 22, 1863, the last May 14, 1864. The contents are largely personal; Boatwright was deeply devoted to his wife and in virtually every letter states how much he misses her. The strain of separation was doubtless increased by Mrs. Boatwright's pregnancy (see in particular letter of May 1, 1864). Occasionally Boatwright mentions the situation at Savannah and the course of the war; on April 26, 1864, for example, he alludes to the Army's financial straits. The letter of the following day states that "we are making the grandest of efforts in the world to frustrate the plans of the Yankees this spring" and that "Every Regiment from this place except one has been ordered to the front." There is also a fragment of a letter, possibly to Boatwright, from a J. W. Magill, referring to ammunition, no date.Biographical/Historical Note: Confederate Army ordnance office stationed in Savannah, Georgia at the time these letters were written, 1863-64
Vanadium(III)-alpha-Amino Acid Homoleptic Complexes from Non-Protic Solutions: Reactions of [V(Mes)3(THF)] with alpha-Amino Acids and the Structures of tris(L-prolinato)vanadium-Dimethyl Sulfoxide and Tris(D-prolinato)vanadium-Dimethyl Sulfoxide
No full textThe reaction of [V(Mes)3(THF)] [Mes ≡ 2,4,6-Me3C6H2] with free α-amino acids in non-protic solvents led to the synthesis of homoleptic mononuclear hexacoordinate vanadium(III) complexes VA3 [AH = L-proline, 1; AH = D-proline, 2; AH = L-phenylalanine, 3; AH = D-phenylalanine, 4; AH = D,L-phenylalanine, 5; AH = L-tryptophan, 6; AH = L-valine, 7]. The solubility of the products varies according to the nature of the amino acid. The crystalline solids contain solvents of crystallization. The structures of 1·DMSO and 2·DMSO have been elucidated by an X-ray analysis. The configuration of 1 corresponds to the mer Δ diastereoisomeric form which is one of the four possible distereoisomers of the tris(L-prolinato)vanadium complex, while the configuration of 2 is the mer A form which is one of the four diastereoisomers of tris(D-prolinato)vanadium(III). The optical rotations of all complexes are very high when compared with those for uncomplexed α-amino acids ([α]D20 = 312° for 1 vs −85.0° for L-proline; −318° for 2 vs +81.5° for D-proline), the sign of the rotation for 1 being opposite to that seen for complexes 3, 6, and 7. Crystallographic details: 1 is monoclinic, space group P21, a = 10.468(9) Å, b = 19.125(6) Å, c = 11.448(4) Å, α = γ = 90°, β = 109.27(4)°, Z = 4, R = 0.043; 2 is monoclinic, space group P21, a = 10.486(2) Å b = 19.130(3) Å, c = 11.470(2) Å, α = γ = 90°, β = 109.31(2)°, Z = 4, R = 0.040
Iron(II)-alpha-Amino Acid Complexes from Nonprotic Solutions: Reactions of [Fe(Mes)2(phen)] with alpha-Amino Acids and the Structures of Bis(l-Prolinato)(1,10-phenanthroline)iron(II) and Bis(d-prolinato)(1,10-phenanthroline)iron(II)
No full textThe arylation of FeCl2(THF)1.5 in THF with MesMgBr (Mes = 1,3,5-Me3C6H2) in the presence of 9,10-phenanthroline (phen) led to the crystalline [Fe(phen)(Mes)2], 1, which contains a tetrahedral iron(II) sigma-bonded to two aryl groups. They can be removed by a variety of protic ligands under aprotic conditions. The reaction of 1 with amino acids AH led to the isolation of monomeric iron(II)-amino acid complexes [Fe(phen)(A)2] [A = L-prolinato (2), D-prolinato (3), L-phenylalaninato (4), D-phenylalaninato (5), DL-phenylalaninato (6), L-tryptophanato (7), L-Valinato (8)]. They show a diversity in solubility depending on the amino acid residue. All of them have been fully characterized including the X-ray analysis on 2 and 3, which have been shown to be enantiomeric forms. Crystallographic details: 1 is monoclinic, space group I2/a, with a = 13.216(3) angstrom, b = 14.843(3) angstrom, c = 15.904(3) angstrom, alpha = gamma = 90-degrees, beta = 102.32(2)degrees, Z = 4, and R = 0.044. 2 is hexagonal, space group P3(1)21, with a = b = 9.663(2) angstrom, c = 23.743(4) angstrom, alpha = beta = 90-degrees, gamma = 120-degrees, Z = 3, and R = 0.035. 3 is hexagonal, space group P3(2)21, with a = b = 9.692(1) angstrom, c = 23.841(3) angstrom, alpha = beta = 90-degrees, gamma = 120-degrees, Z = 3, and R = 0.053
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Existence of pseudo-equilibria in a financial economy
No full textThis paper proves the existence of a pseudo-equilibrium in a financial economy with incomplete markets in which the agents may have nonordered preferences. We will use a fixed-point-like theorem of [4] that generalizes the results by Hirsch, Magill, Mas-Colell [18] and Husseini, Lasry, Magill [19] to encompass the framework considered by Gale and Mas-Colell ([14],[15]).Pseudo-equilibrium, incomplete markets, nonordered preferences, fixed-point-like theorems, Grassmann manifold.
Autocorrelation of the polarization-dependent loss in fiber routes
No full textWe study the spectral properties of polarization-dependent loss (PDL) in fiber routes with multiple spans and amplifiers. In these systems, PDL stems from asmall number of lumped WDM components interconnected by PDL-free fibers, a configuration that is poorly described by the popular model of distributed PDL. We derive transparent and practical analytical expressions for the autocorrelation functions of the PDL vector and of the square PDL magnitude
and show that they are strongly affected by the order of the individual PDL elements
