DEARYLATION IN THE INTERACTIONS BETWEEN (Et3NH)HC2O4 OR (Et3NH)2C2O4 AND SnPh3Cl: INFRARED STUDY by GORGUI AWA SECK, LIBASSE DIOP, ABOUBACARY SENE

“… Five new oxalato, hydrogenoxalato and hydrogenocarbonato adducts (three) and complexes (two) obtained on allowing (Et3NH)HC2O4 or (Et3NH)2C2O4 to react with SnPh3Cl have been studied by infrared spectroscopy, then discrete structures suggested on the basis of spectroscopic data. The anions behave as monochelating ligands, the environments around the metallic centres being octahedral. …”

Is there a “Meditative-polemic-May”? by Maruszka Eve-Marie Meinard

“…Two types of extraposed subordinate clauses will be compared, one in which MAY and MIGHT have an epistemic meaning and one in which they behave like the meditative-polemic-Should. The examples extracted from Google reveal that this specific use of MAY and MIGHT is mostly found in American English, that it is mostly used in journals, and that the subclause refers to past events that could logically be expected. …”

Short Paper - Quadratic minimization: from conjugate gradient to an adaptive Polyak’s momentum method with Polyak step-sizes by Goujaud, Baptiste, Taylor, Adrien, Dieuleveut, Aymeric

“…This method happens to also be equivalent to a variation of the classical conjugate gradient method, and thereby inherits many of its attractive features, including its finite-time convergence, instance optimality, and its worst-case convergence rates.The classical gradient method with Polyak step-sizes is known to behave very well in situations in which it can be used, and the question of whether incorporating momentum in this method is possible and can improve the method itself appeared to be open. …”
