    Notes: Propylene was polymerized with rac-ethylene-bis (1-η5-indenyl)dichlorozirconium/methylaluminoxane in solvents of different polarity. The poly (propylene) formed was separated by solvent extraction; 13C-NMR and DSC measurements were made on the polymer fractions. The poly(propylene) in each solvent fraction has its characteristic molecular weight steric pentad distributions, melting transition temperature, and enthalpy for fusion irrespective of the polymerization medium. The results suggest that the medium dielectric constant does not affect the polymerization rate or the intrinsic stereoselectivity, propagation and chain transfer rates a given catalytic species but can alter the occurrence of steric insertion errors through shifting of distributions of the propagating species producing poly(propylenes) of different stereoregularities. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A new silolene-bridged compound, racemic (1,4-butanediyl) silylene-bis (1-η5-in-denyl) dichlorozirconium (1) was synthesized by reacting ZrCl4 with C4H8Si (IndLi)2 in THF. 1 was reacted with trialkylaluminum and then with triphenylcarbenium tetrakis (penta-fluorophenyl) borate (2) to produce in situ the zirconocenium ion (1+). This “constraint geometry” catalyst is exceedingly stereoselective for propylene polymerization at low temperature (Tp = -55°C), producing refluxing n-heptane insoluble isotactic poly(propylene) (i-PP) with a yield of 99.4%, Tm = 164.3°C, δHf = 20.22 cal/g and M̄w = 350 000. It has catalytic activities of 107-108 g PP/(mol Zr · [C3H6] · h) in propylene polymerization at the Tp ranging from -55°C to 70°C, and 108 polymer/(mol Zr · [monomer] · h) in ethylene polymerization. The stereospecificity of 1+ decreases gradually as Tp approaches 20°C. At higher temperatures the catalytic species rapidly loses stereochemical control. Under all experimental conditions 1+ is more stereospecific than the analogous cation derived from rac-dimethylsilylenebis (1-η5-indenyl)dichlorozirconium (4). The variations of polymerization activities in ethylene and in propylene for Tp from -55°C to +70°C indicates a Michaelis Mention kinetics. The zirconocenium-propylene π-complex has a larger insertion rate constant but lower thermal stability than the corresponding ethylene π-complex. This catalyst copolymerizes ethylene and propylene with reactivity ratios of comparable magnitude rE ˜ 4rp. Furthermore, rE.rp ˜ 0.5 indicating random copolymer formation. Both 1 and 4 activated with methylaluminoxane (MAO) exhibit much slower polymerization rates, and, under certain conditions, a lower stereo-selectivity than the corresponding 1+ or 4+ system. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Syndioselective propylene polymerization has been promoted by rac-2,2-dimethylpropylidene (1-η5-cyclopentadienyl) (1-η5-fluorenyl) dichlorozirconium (1). The active catalytic species were generated using either triphenylcarbenium tetrakis (pentafluorophenyl) borate (2) (Zr+ method) or methylaluminoxane (MAO method). The former exhibited much higher activity than the latter, especially at low polymerization temperatures (Tp). Syndiotactic poly (propylene) (s-PP) obtained at Tp = -20°C has Tm approaching 160°C, [rrrr] pentad fraction of 0.92 to 0.95, and 45% crystallinity (Xc). It crystallized in two antichiral unit cells B and C. The C structure is favored by low temperature of polymerization, slow crystallization from melt, and annealing. The s-PP has M̄w/M̄n ranging from 3.6 to 4.4, which can be separated into stereoregular fractions soluble in heptane and hexane and stereoirregular fractions soluble in pentane, ether, and acetone. Therefore, this system cannot be considered to be a single-site catalyst. A parallel study was made on the isopropylidene (1-η5-cyclopentadienyl) (1-η5-fluorenyl) dichlorozirconium (3)/MAO catalyst. Molecular mechanics calculations were performed for all combinations of the configuration of asymmetric centers. The steric energy favors syndiotactic enchainment for both catalysts 1 and 3, with 1 forming the more syndioselective catalyst. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Propylene was polymerized by binary zirconocenium catalysts derived from rac-ethylenebis(1-η5-indenyl)dimethylzirconium and cation forming agents (C6H5)3C+(C6F5)4B- and (C6F5)3B. Polymerizations were also performed with the ternary systems of Et[Ind]2ZrCl2, Et3Al, and the cation forming agents. The catalyst systems, with the inert noncoordinating counter-ion, (C6F5)4B-, have much higher activity and stereoselectivity than the ones with the CH3B-(C6F5)3 counter-ion. Much less active still are catalysts having BF4- or (C6H5)4B- counter-ions. Similar but smaller effects of counter-ion structure on ethylene polymerization were observed. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Background: The contribution of middle-ear development to the overall development of hearing has not been explored in great detail. This presentation describes the maturation of conductive elements in the rat middle ear, and provides the basis on which future studies of middle-ear functional development will follow.Methods: The middle-ear apparatus was examined at nine different ages (between 1 and 80 days postpartum) in Long Evans rats. At each age elements of the conducting apparatus were observed with either light or scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and quantitative measurements were made from video enhanced photomicrographs. Tympanic membrane area and cone depth, the length of the malleus and incus arms, ossicular weight, stapes foot plate and oval window areas, and bulla volume were all measured. Development of the area and lever ratios were derived from these measurements. The data were fitted to exponential equations and the time in days required to reach 90% of the adult level determined.Results: The pars tensa achieved 90% of total area by 17 days. The oval window achieved the 90% criterion by 13 days, while the area ratio was within 10% of its adult size by 8 days. The ossicles took between 26 and 34 days, while bulla volume took 59 days to reach the 90% level.Conclusions: Middle-ear growth was very orderly and systematic in the data reported. When maturation of the area ratio was considered against development of the endocochlear potential or the round window compound action potential, it was clear that the growth of this important aspect of the middle ear preceded the onset of cochlear function. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Solid-state NMR relaxation has been used to explore the distribution of components in poly(phenylene oxide) (PPO) high impact polystyrene (HIPS) and PPO/poly(styrene-b-butadiene-b-styrene) (SBS) blends. The nuclear relaxation of PPO in the former system is single exponential for all compositions, but the relaxation of PS in the blend is simple exponential only when the PPO content is low but is otherwise nonexponential. The nuclear magnetization decay curves were analyzed in terms of statistical compositional fluctuation at the scale of spin diffusion distances of several nm. Distribution functions for nuclear relaxation and for blend composition have been derived. Extraction of low molecular weight occluded PS from HIPS resulted in blends having reduced homogeneity. Addition of low molecular weight PS enhanced homogeneity in both the PPO/HIPS and PPO/SBS blends. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Bombesin (BBS) and its mammalian equivalent, gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) exhibit diverse biological functions, including that of a neurotransmatter, a regulator of gastrointestinal hormone release, and a trophic factor for various normal and neoplastic tissues. Bombesin stimulates the growth of normal cells of the stomach, pancreas, and bronchial epithelium as well as cells in breast cancer, gastrinoma, and small cell lung cancer. The purpose of this study was to determine whether BBS regulates the growth of a human gastric cancer cell line (SIIA) in vitro, and if so, to examine the mechanisms of signal-transduction that are involved. We found that BBS stimulated the growth of SIIA cells in vitro. The GRP receptor antagonists, BIM 26189 and BIM 26226, had no effect on growth of SIIA cells. Although these antagonists blocked the BBS-induced increase of [Ca2+]i, they failed to block the growth-stimulatory effect of BBS. BBS stimulated intracellular tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins, with a predominant protein of apparent molecular weight of 125 kDa. Inhibition of intracellular tyrosine kinases by tyrphostin blocked the growth-stimulatory effect of BBS on SIIA cells. These results indicate that BBS exerts its trophic effect on SIIA cells through a receptor(s) linked to tyrosine kinase pathway, but not to the phospholipase C (PLC) pathway. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
