Theoretical Study of Acenaphthylene and its Derivatives

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (PAH) plays an important role in the formation of combustion-generatedparticles such as soot, and their presence in atmosphere aerosols has been widely shown. The formation of five-membered rings, detected in combustion effluent, is of great interest due to their genotoxic activity.The present study reports an investigation of the electronic structure of Acenapht...

Local aromaticity of the five-membered rings in acenaphthylene derivatives.

In this paper, a detailed study of the local aromaticity in a series of cyclopenta-fused linear polyacenes (acenaphthylene derivatives) was performed using several different criteria of aromaticity. Namely, the energy effect (ef), bond resonance energy (BRE), harmonic oscillator model of aromaticity (HOMA) index, multi centre delocalization indices (MCI), electron density at ring critical point...

The integrated Rule Oriented Data Management System (iRODS) is a policy-driven data management system that is starting to be used by projects with large data volume requirements that require a highly available system. In this paper we describe an approach to provide a Highly Availability load-balanced iRODS System (HAIRS). We also describe the advantages and disadvantages of the approach and fu...
