    Pre-abstinence smoke intake and smoking motivation as predictors of severity of cigarette withdrawal symptoms (1985)
    Springer
    Psychopharmacology 87 (1985), S. 334-336

    Notes: Abstract Twenty-nine cigarette smokers completed a smoking motivation questionnaire and had expired-air carbon monoxide (CO) and plasma nicotine concentrations measured prior to abstaining from smoking for 24 h. Before and after the abstinence period, the subjects rated mood and physical symptoms known to be affected by cigarette abstinence (e.g. irritability, restlessness). Scores on the “dependent smoking” subscale of the smoking motivation questionnaire correlated significantly with overall withdrawal severity, craving, and increased irritability. “Indulgent smoking” scores correlated positively with increased hunger. Pre-abstinence plasma nicotine concentration significantly pedicted craving, hunger, restlessness, inability to concentrate and overall withdrawal severity, while expired-air CO predicted craving and restlessness only. Usual daily cigarette consumption did not significantly predict any withdrawal effects. The data indicate that pre-abstinence measures of smoking motivation and smoke intake may provide a guide to withdrawal severity on smoking cessation and that smokers with a high pre-abstinence nicotine intake experience the greatest discomfort.

    Properties of some polysilane polymers: (n-PrSiMe) n , (i-PrSiMe) n , and (sec-BuSiMe) n (1995)
    Springer
    Journal of inorganic and organometallic polymers and materials 5 (1995), S. 31-42

    Notes: Abstract Three polysilane polymers, (n-PrSiMe) n , (i-PrSiMe) n , and (sec-BuSiMe) n , were synthesized and characterized by DSC. UV spectroscopy, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, and optical microscopy, all at variable temperatures. The known thermochromic transition of (n-PrSiMe) n at ∼48 C is associated with a change from an orthorhombic to an isotropic phase. (i-PrSiMe) n was examned as an insoluble and soluble (lowM w) fraction, both existing mainly in an orthohombic lattice at room temperature. (sec-BuSiMe) n has a mesophase structure at 25 C, undergoes a weak endothermic transition to a second (nematic) mesophase near 65 C, and becomes isotropic at ∼160 C.

    Synthesis and characterization of alternating silane copolymers: (Me2Si−R2Si−Me2Si) n (1995)
    Springer
    Journal of inorganic and organometallic polymers and materials 5 (1995), S. 217-236

    Notes: Abstract Bimodal molecular weight distributions of alternating copolymers of the type (Me2Si−R2Si−SiMe2) n , where R=hexyl and butyl, were obtained by polymerization of BrSiMe2−R2Si−Me2SiBr, using the Wurtz coupling method. Analysis of the samples by pyrolysis GC MS and solution29Si NMR indicated that some randomization occurred, due to cleavage of the original Si−Si bonds in the monomer. The extent of randomization was significantly greater in the high molecular weight fractions. Based on the nature of the rings from the py MGC/MS traces and the number on nonads found in the29Si spectra, two types of randomization processes have been proposed, involving backbiting followed by (1) ring expulsion or (2) redistribution.
