An optically active 2-cyano-2-methyl-alkanoic acid represented by the formula: ##STR1## is produced by optical resolution of the corresponding racemic mixture thereof with an optically active amine and is reduced to provide an optically active 2-cyano-2-methyl-1-alkanol represented by the formula: ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 denotes an alkyl groups having 3-10 carbon atoms, R.sub.2 denotes an alkyl group having 2-10 carbon atoms and C* denotes an asymmetric carbon atom. These compounds are characterized by having a CN group with a large dipole moment directly attached to an asymmetric carbon atom and are effective for controlling the liquid crystal state of a liquid crystal composition when added thereto.

A magnetization reversal device includes a ferromagnetic 12 body which is provided in an interconnection of a non-ferromagnetic dot 11 so that a part or a whole of the ferromagnetic dot is three-dimensionally buried in the interconnection of said non-ferromagnetic dot, and a spin injection source 13 which generates a spin-polarized pure spin current without a flow of charges, and which is provided in the interconnection of the non-ferromagnetic dot 11 to be in contact therewith so that the interconnection of the non-ferromagnetic dot serves as a common electrode, and the pure spin current flows into the ferromagnetic dot 2 through the interconnection of the non-magnetic body by the spin injection source 13 due to a diffusion current, to thereby reverse magnetization of the ferromagnetic dot 12. By injecting the pure spin current, using this planar structure, it is possible to easily carry out the magnetization reversal of the ferromagnetic dot 12 even if it is a thick film ferromagnetic dot without being subjected to limitation of a spin diffusion length.

An air conditioning apparatus 1 includes first start control and second start control as its start control. In the first start control, first outdoor heat exchangers 24a, 24b are controlled to function as evaporators and second outdoor heat exchangers 25a, 25b are controlled to function as condensers. Thus, even when the compressors 21a, 21b are driven on at a given rotation number, the discharge pressures thereof can be prevented from increasing, thereby being able to prevent the internal pressures of the compressors 21a, 21b from increasing. Also, after end of the first start control, the first outdoor heat exchangers 24a, 24b and second outdoor heat exchangers 25a, 25b are all controlled to function as evaporators, and the compressors 21a, 21b are driven on at a given rotation number. This can shorten the rising time of the heating capacity in the start of the normal heating operation.

[Problems to be Solved] In a synthetic resin container closure of a type which includes a body and a tamper evident bottom portion connected to the body via a plurality of breakable bridge portions arranged with spacing in a circumferential direction, and in which the body continues to be connected via unbroken connecting pieces to the tamper evident bottom portion continuously mounted on a mouth-and-neck portion of a container even after the bridge portions are broken to remove the body from the mouth-and-neck portion of the container, an improvement is made so that the container closure can be applied, without posing problems, even when the ascent distance of the body when removed is relatively long.[Means to Solve the Problems] Each of the unbroken connecting pieces is in such a form as to include two tilting portions whose tilting directions are opposite to each other.

A plastic cap with IC tag storing product information provided on the upper surface of a top plate. The top plate is formed by an annular flange and a recessed portion 37, the recessed portion, including a side wall continuous to the inner circumferential edge of the annular flange and a bottom continuous to the lower end of the side wall. The tag 10 is attached to the annular flange to cover the recessed portion. A gap between the tag and the bottom is maintained to such a degree that the transmission and reception of signals to and from the tag are not interrupted when the back surface of the bottom comes in contact with water.
