    Notes: Presents the development and implementation of a four-dimensional variational (4D-var) data assimilation technique for a comprehensive Eulerian chemistry-transport model. The method aims at analysing the chemical state of the atmosphere on the basis of trace gas observations with arbitrary distribution in time and space, a chemistry-transport model, and a priori knowledge as available from climatological records or preceding model runs. The model under consideration is the University of Cologne EURAD-CTM2 with the full RADM2 gas phase mechanism. Describes the storage and recalculation strategy of a parallel implementation of the 4D-var method and first experiences of its performance, when model generated data are provided as artificial observations. The problem of pre-scaling the minimization problem is discussed in some detail. It is found that the algorithm is well suited to adapt the model trajectory to the observation data.

    Notes: Reaction of vanadyl sulfate with the Schiff base H2L1 derived from o-vanillin and glycine leads to [VIVO(H2O)L1 (1), treatment of which with acetyl chloride affords cis-[VIVCl2L1] (2). Reaction of [VO(acac)2] with the Schiff base H2L2 derived from o-hydroxynaphthaldehyde and o-hydroxyaniline under aerobic conditions yields [{VVO(L2)}2μ-O] (3), which undergoes methanolysis in excess methanol to form [VVO(MeOH)(OMe)L2] (5a). Complex 5a is also obtained via [VVOCl(L2)] (4) and MeOH. On treatment of 3 with an equimolar amount of ethanol, [VVOCl(L2)] (4) and MeOH. On treatment of 3 with an equimolar amount of ethanol. [VVO(OEt)L2] (5b) is obtained. With the chiral tertiary bis(ethanol)amine (S)- or (R)-(HOCH2CH2)2NCH(Ph)Me, H2L3, [VO(acac)2] loses only one acetylacetonate (1-) ligand, and the complexes (S)- and (R)-[VVO(acac)L3] (6a) are formed. As is evident for the corresponding reaction with (HOCH2CH2)2NPh, H2L4, which affords [VVO(acac)L4 (6b), the substitution is a second-order process (rate constant 0.013 M-1 h-1). 5a…MeOH, 5b, (R)-6a, and (S)-6a have been structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The molecular connectivities have also been established for 1-H2O. All of the structurally characterized complexes contain an O*O3N donor set (O* denotes a doubly-bonded oxo group) and thus model the coordination environment of the active site in vanadate-dependent haloperoxidases. This model character is particularly pronounced in 5b, the coordination geometry of which is half-way to trigonal-bipyramidal. 5a and 6a contain, in addition to the O*O3N set, a labile V-O or V-N bond, respectively, which may mimic substrate binding to the active centre. 6a is also of relevance to the enantioselective peroxide oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides by catalyst systems containing vanadium and H2L3.
