The Problem

Introduction

The traditional philosophy that a college-or a university is an exclusive institution in which only highly selected individuals receive a concentrated training in the traditional liberal arts no longer exists. In America, for instance, as early as 1870, Harvard, the colonial college with a narrow curriculum, was transformed rather rapidly into a modern university with many new subjects and the elective system (Garrett, 1949). Also, since 1642, when the first entrance requirements were instituted for American higher education, a continuing debate has developed over what constitutes a sound curriculum for education. There are those who …

Linear Operators Between Nonarchimedean Banach Spaces, Krishnamachari S. Nadathur Aug 1973

Linear Operators Between Nonarchimedean Banach Spaces, Krishnamachari S. Nadathur

Dissertations

I Preliminaries

The purpose of this dissertation is to extend some classical results on compact and Fredholm operators to the case in which the linear spaces involved are non-archimedean normed linear spaces over a valued field.

In Section I are listed some definitions and basic concepts that are needed for a study of non-archimedean valuation theory. The concepts of tensor products of nonarchimedean Banach spaces over a spherically complete field F, and of the tensor product of operators, are also dealt with in this section.

The proofs of most of the results in Section II are based on the known …

Dissertations

Introduction

Although the stereochemical capabilities of carbonium ions have been extensively investigated, the stereochemical fate of carbanions has been subjected relatively little to systematic scrutiny. The fact that only a limited number of clean-cut sources of carbanions are available has added difficulty to such investigations.

The stereochemical capabilities of carbanions has been extensively and thoroughly examined in recent years by Cram and coworkers. However, the carbanion carbon developed in the reactions employed was bonded in every case to an unsaturated (usually aromatic) group. No fully aliphatic carbanion has been subjected to such a stereochemical study.

The reaction of lead tetraacetate …

Dimethyl Sulfoxide Oxydation Of Hydroxy-Steroids And Studies On The Oxidation Of The 5’–Hydroxy Group Of Nucleosides, Carmen V. Zenarosa

Dissertations

Introduction

In our earlier work we demonstrated the usefulness of the acidcatalyzed reaction between N-(p -tolyl)diphenylketenimine (21) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) for the oxidation of secondary alcohols. This was exemplified by the oxidation of 2',3'-O-isopropylideneadenosine and other secondary alcohols.1 We have now extended this procedure to the oxidation of hydroxy-steroids.

Alkynylamines or ynamines can be written in two resonance forms: R-C≡C-N R'2 and R-C=C=NR'2. Because of the close similarity between the latter structure and the structure of a ketenimine (R2C=C=N-R') and the ability of sulfoxide-ketenimine to effect the oxidation of secondary alcohols, we …
