In contrast to the $\pi$ -conjugated polymers which typically absorb light only in the visible spectral region, the $\sigma$-conjugated polymers can be used as efficient material absorbing light in the UV region. In this work, the electronic and optical properties of I$_2$-doped $\sigma$ -conjugated poly (methyl-phenylsilylene) (PMPSi) polymer were investigated. DC conductivity up to 1.2$\times$10$^{-4}$ S/cm was obtained by I$_2$-doping. In UV/Vis absorbance spectrum, a new peak was observed near 370 nm, which was explained by polaron model. The photoluminescence (PL) intensity decreased with increasing degree of I$_2$-doping, and the Infrared (IR) spectrum analysis revealed that the dopants are not directly coupled to the polymer, but effect motions of the methyl and phenyl groups.

A combination of conjugate gradient and Levenberg-Marquardt method is used to estimate the spatially varying scattering coefficient, ${\sigma}(r)$, in the solid and hollow spheres by utilizing the measured transmitted beams from the solution of an inverse analysis. The direct radiation problem associated with the inverse problem is solved by using the $S_{12}-approximation$ of the discrete ordinates method. The accuracy of the computations increased when the results from the conjugate gradient method are used as an initial guess for the Levenberg-Marquardt method of minimization. Optical thickness up to ${\tau}_0=3$ is used for the computations. Three different values of standard deviation are considered to examine the accuracy of the solution from the inverse analysis.

The basicities of 16 substituted azoxybenzenes have been measured by U.V. spectrophotometric method. The effects of substituents on the basicities are discussed in terms of Hammett's equation. The reaction constants, ${\rho}^X_Y$ and ${\rho}^Y_X$ , in a modified equation, log $K_{XY}/K_{\infty}={\sigma}_X{\rho}^Y_X+{\sigma}_Y{\rho}^X_Y$, are $2.46{\pm}0.12$ and $2.25{\pm}0.26$ respectively. The validity of the equation is analysed by a statistical method, and the structure of the conjugate acid of the substituted azoxybenzenes is proposed.

Consider the oblique factor model X=Af＋$\varepsilon$, with defining relation $\Sigma$=Λ$\Phi$Λ'＋Ψ. This paper is concerned with suggesting an optimal Bayes criterion for determining the number of factors in the model, i.e. dimension of the vector f. The use of marginal likelihood as a method for calculating posterior probability of each model with given dimension is developed under a generalized conjugate prior. Then based on an appropriate loss function, a Bayes rule is developed by use of the posterior probabilities. It is shown that the approach is straightforward to specify distributionally and to imploement computationally, with output readily adopted for constructing required cirterion.

Rate constants for the hydrolysis of cinnamonitrile in the concentration range of 1 ∼ 5M of perchloric acid at 25$^{\circ}$C have been determined by UV spectrophotometry and from the Bunnett equations, hydration parameters (${\omega}$ = 9.8, ${\omega}^*$ = 0.42 & ${\phi}$=1.6) were obtained. CNDO/2 MO calculations were performed to determine relative stability, net charges, and overlap population of various conformational isomers. The results show that the (E)-planar is more stable than the (Z)-planar and protonation is favored on the nitrogen atom. On the basis of above findings, the acid hydrolysis is initiated by the protonation of the nitrogen atom of cinnamonitrile and then water molecule acting as nucleophile and as a proton transfer agent in the rate determining step. In the transition state of the acid hydrolysis, nucleophilic addition of water molecule occurs by sigma approach to the positively charged $C_7({\alpha}$) atom of the conjugate acid. As the results, we may conclude that the hydrolysis of cinnamonitrile in the strong acidic media proceeds through the A-2 type mechanism.
