Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of compounds of formula I wherein the substituents are as defined in claim 1, by conversion of a compound of formula II reaction of that compound with a compound of formula IV X—C(O)-Q (IV), wherein X is a leaving group, to form a compound of formula V and treatment of that compound in the presence of a base with catalytic amounts of cyanide ions.
Abstract:
A filtration cartridge faucet assembly contains a filtration body that is concealed beneath a sink deck through the use of an escutcheon mount. The escutcheon mount permits access to a renewable filtration core from above the sink deck while concealing and protecting the filtration body.
Abstract:
Compounds obtained by the addition of unsaturated esters to the >NH group of compounds of formula II ##STR1## are useful as light stabilizers for polymeric materials, particularly for thermoplastic polymers and automotive finishes. Preferred compounds are those in which R, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are all hydrogen and R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 together with the carbon atom to which they are attached form a cyclododecylidene ring.
Abstract:
Novel pyrrole derivatives of formula I wherein X is oxygen or sulfur; R1 is C1–C4alkyl unsubstituted or substituted, with the exception of CF3; C3–C6cycloalkyl unsubstituted or substituted; or halogen; R2 is hydrogen, C1–C4alkyl unsubstituted or substituted, C1–C4alkoxy unsubstituted or substituted, cyano or halogen; R3 is C1–C4alkyl unsubstituted or substituted; and A is orthosubstituted aryl; orthosubstituted heteroaryl; bicycloaryl unsubstituted or substituted; or bicycloheteroaryl unsubstituted or substituted. The novel compounds have plant-protective properties and are suitable for protecting plants against infestations by phytopathogenic microorganisms.
Abstract:
In a process for controlling a closing device in a motor vehicle driven by an electric motor, in particular for controlling a motor vehicle sunroof, to protect a body part from being crushed during a closing motion, a closing resistance variable is detected. The closing resistance variable is characteristic of a force counteracting the closing motion, and is used to determine whether a crush situation exists. For this purpose, an additional auxiliary variable indicative of wind load forces at a certain speed is used. If a crush situation exists, a protective measure is initiated.
Abstract:
A process for determining the combustion pressure of an internal combustion engine is proposed. Conventional processes of this type have the disadvantage that the determination methods are very costly. Furthermore, stringent requirements are made of the sensors to be used. By comparison, the process proposed here is distinguished in that the combustion pressure is calculated from the combustion chamber pressure (p(.alpha.)) determined with simple sensors, by determining the compression pressure (p.sub.k (.alpha.)). These values for the compression pressure are subtracted from the combustion chamber pressure in order to calculate the combustion pressure p*(.alpha.)). Preferably, the course of the compression pressure is obtained by measuring the combustion chamber pressure values during the compression until top dead center in the working phase and storing them in a memory. The compression values occurring after top dead center are obtained by reflection at an axis extending through top dead center, resulting in a symmetrical curve course for the compression pressure. In this way, the combustion pressure can be calculated particularly simply.

Abstract:
There is disclosed a process for the direct reduction of iron-oxide-containing materials by a gasification gas produced in a gasifier by reacting carbon with oxygen and, if desired, with steam, upon the addition of sulfur acceptors in a fluidized bed. The gasification gas is supplied to a direct reduction shaft furnace after separation of solid particles carried therewith. At least part of the top gas withdrawn from the direct reduction shaft furnace is compressed after dust scrubbing and is recycled to the gasifier. The sulfur acceptors are supplied as fine particles separated from the coal in cocurrent with, and/or counterflow to, the fluidized-bed forming gases. The top gas from the reduction shaft furnace, which has a concentration of from 15 to 30% CO.sub.2 and a temperature of from 80.degree. to 800.degree. C., is recycled laterally through the wall of the gasifier into the region of the fluidized bed, which is maintained at a temperature of at least 1,150.degree. C. The slag, which is in the molten state with the temperature prevailing in the gasifier, containing ashes and sulfur compounds and collecting under the formation of a bath, is removed via a tap in the vicinity of the bottom of the gasifier. The solid particles separated from the gasification gas are mixed with dust coal having a grain size of up to 3 mm and are recycled into the bottom region of the gasifier above the surface of the slag bath.
