[reaction: see text]. A new method for efficient radical deoxygenation of alcohols is described for preparing bulk chemicals avoiding scale-up problems. Treatment of various thiocarbonyl derivatives with (Bu(4)N)(2)S(2)O(8) and HCO(2)Na in DMF afforded the corresponding deoxygenated products in excellent yields. The deoxygenation appears to be initiated by the transfer of a single electron to thiocarbonyl
The lipid extract of the Sclerophytum so. of soft coral, collected off the coast of the Andaman and Nicober Islands, afforded a new sterol 1a. The structure of 1a was shown to be (24S)-3β-hydroxyergost-5-en-21-oic acid, the first member of a class of marine sterols having a C-21 carboxylic acid, by spectral analyses and conversion to(24S)-ergostane.

The formation of antiwear tribofilms plays a critical role in the longevity of automotive gears. The focus of this experimental study was on the lubrication efficacy of gear oils with different contents of borate-, phosphorus-, and sulfur-containing additives leading to the formation of protective tribofilms. Experiments were performed with AISI 52100 steel balls sliding against AISI 52100 steel disks in baths of different oils at ambient (similar to32degreesC) and elevated (similar to100degreesC) temperatures under load and speed conditions favoring sliding in the boundary lubrication regime. Friction coefficient responses accompanied by electrical contact voltage measurements provided real-time information about the formation and durability of the antiwear tribofilms. The wear resistance of the tribochemical films was quantified by wear rate data obtained from surface profilometry measurements of wear tracks on the disk specimens and sliding tests performed at ambient temperatures after the formation of the tribofilms during elevated-temperature sliding. Results indicate a strong dependence of tribofilm formation on temperature and type of additives. The slightly lower friction and higher wear resistance obtained at elevated temperatures with blended oils is attributed to the increased chemical reactivity of additives containing borate, phosphorus, and sulfur, leading to the formation of durable tribofilms. Relatively higher wear resistance and faster tribofilm formation were obtained with the borate-enriched gear oil formulations.

In multiple-target systems, the signal factor is varied based on the signal-response relationship to achieve different targets for the response specified by the customer. Robust parameter design aims to make the signal-response relationship insensitive to the noise variation by choosing appropriate levels for the control factors. Taguchi's dynamic signal-to-noise ratio has several limitations for the optimization in multiple target systems. We give a theoretical formulation of the problem and develop A practical approach for optimization that overcomes these limitations. The methodology is illustrated using a temperature controller example.
