In this article, we examine the arithmetic aspect of the Kummer-surface-type CY 3-folds T̂/G, characterized by the crepant resolution of 3-torus-orbifold T/G with only isolated singularities. Up to isomorphisms, there are only two such space T̂/G with |G| = 3, 7, and both T carrying the structure of triple-product structure of a CM elliptic curve. The (Griffiths) intermediate Jacobians of these T̂...

Article history: Received January 21, 2015 Received in revised form March 29, 2015 Accepted 9 April 2015 Available online 9 April 2015 This study investigated the selective synthesis of aryl-bis(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)methane for the first time under microwave irradiation in solvent-free medium within 5 min using 10 mol % of B(HSO4)3 (BSA) as reusable solid acid catalyst. The same reaction could ...

Controlling the ratio of 2,2'-bpy to benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid produces two interesting complexes, namely [Co(2,2'-bpy)₃]·(SO₄)·8.5H₂O (1) and [Cu₂(BTCA) (2,2'-bpy)₄] (OH)·(2,2'-bpy)₀.₅·14H₂O (2) (H₃BTCA = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid, 2,2'-bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine). We report the structural evidence in the solid state of discrete lamellar water cluster conformations. These units are fo...

The antimicrobial activity of ethanol and chloroform extracts of Pentanema divaricatum Cass. was studied using the conventional disk diffusion method. The extracts' highest antimicrobial activity was observed against Aspergillus niger. Bioassay-guided fractionation of the crude extract by preparative thin layer chromatography (PTLC) showed one antimicrobial fraction which was especially effecti...

A simple and environmentally benign procedure for the synthesis of 14-aryl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes by a one-pot condensation of 2-naphthol with aromatic aldehyde in the presence of [Et3NH][HSO4] as an acidic ionic liquid catalyst under solvent-free conditions has been developed. The reaction work-up is very simple and the catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused s...

Abstract In this paper, enthalpies of formation and electronic structures long period stacking ordered phases in ternary Mg-Zn-Y alloys are calculated by first-principles. Through calculations the formation, it was found that 10H phase 14H negative, enthalpy less than phase. It shows both can form stable structure. The energy transformation show is more analysis structure difference between str...

Brachypodium distachyon is a non-domesticated cereal. Nonetheless, Brachypodium was recently introduced as a model plant for temperate cereals. This study compares grain starch metabolism in Brachypodium and barley (Hordeum vulgare). In Brachypodium, we identified and annotated 28 genes involved in starch metabolism and identified important motifs including transit peptides and putative carbohy...

The reactions of new chiral organic ligands trimesoyltri(L-alanine) (L-TMTAH(3)) or trimesoyltri(D-alanine) (D-TMTAH(3)) with transition metal salts in the presence of an ancillary ligand of 4,4'-bipyridine gave two pairs of three dimensional frameworks [Co(3)(L-TMTA)(2)(4,4'-bpy)(4)]·28H(2)O (1), [Co(3)(D-TMTA)(2)(4,4'-bpy)(4)]·28H(2)O (2) [Ni(3)(L-TMTA)(2)(4,4'-bpy)(4)]·2C(2)H(5)OH·14H(2)O (3...
