Abstract Conditions were selected for simple and rapid determination of the percentage of 1,4, 3,4 and 1,2 units in synthetic isoprene rubbers from the curves of the rate of their oxidation by benzoyl hydroperoxide. The content of 1,4, 3,4 and 1,2 units in synthetic isoprene rubbers was determined by comparing the curves of the rate of their oxidation by benzoyl hydroperoxide with the curves of oxidation of model compounds, i.e. limonene and gutta percha.

The arrangement of isoprene units in pig liver dolichol-18, -19 and -20 was determined by 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopies. The alignment of trans and cis isoprene units was found to be in the order: dimethylallyl unit, two trans units, a sequence of 14-16 cis units, and a saturated isoprene unit terminated with a hydroxyl group, which verified the presumed chemical structure of dolichol. The absence of geometric isomers was confirmed. A slight amount of impurity was detected in each reversed-phase h.p.l.c. fraction of dolichol obtained by a conventional method. Detailed assignments of the 13C-n.m.r. spectrum were given for these dolichols by using model compounds and INEPT (insensitive nuclei enhanced by polarization transfer) measurement. The chemical structure of synthetic dolichol-19, which was prepared by the addition of a saturated isoprene unit to the polyprenol-18 isolated from Ginkgo biloba, was confirmed to be identical with that of pig liver dolichol-19.

In studying ion implanted semiconductors and fast neutron irradiated metals, the need for characterizing small dislocation loops having diameters of a few hundred angstrom units usually arises. The weak beam imaging method is a powerful technique for analyzing these loops. Because of the large reduction in stacking fault (SF) fringe spacing at large sg, this method allows for a rapid determination of whether the loop is faulted, and, hence, whether it is a perfect or a Frank partial loop. This method was first used by Bicknell to image small faulted loops in boron implanted silicon. He explained the fringe spacing by kinematical theory, i.e., ≃l/(Sg) in the fault fringe in depth oscillation. The fault image contrast formation mechanism is, however, really more complicated.
