Magnetic Field Effects Prior to 1970 there were several reports of the effects of magnetic fields on chemical reactions, though there was much rebuttal and retraction in this early literature (1-3). Since 1970, the number of reproducible examples has grown rapidly. Most contemporary theories explaining these effects stem from the development of the radical pair theory of Chemically Induced Dyna...

a simple mathematical model of steady state  oxygen distribution subject to diffusive transport and non- linear uptake in a retinal cylinder has been developed. the approximate analytical solution to a reaction- diffusion equation are obtained by using series expansions. the computational results for the scaled variables are presented through graphs. the effect of the important parameters (1) d...

Allyl phenyl ether has an absorption band in the ultraviolet region (l o 400 nm); therefore, irradiation with few-optical-cycle ultraviolet pulses (l = 360–440 nm) causes a transition to the ultraviolet band, which leads to an electronic state and a photo-Claisen rearrangement (radical reaction) in the electronic excited state. However, the reaction scheme of allyl phenyl ether under irradiatio...

The Staudinger reactions of substituted phosphanes and azides have been investigated by using density functional theory. Four different initial reaction mechanisms have been found. All systems studied go through a cis-transition state rather than a trans-transition state or a one-step transition state. The one-step pathway of the phosphorus atom attacking the substituted nitrogen atom is always...
