Downloaded from the self-conjugate 4n nuclei which we call a-nuclei are especially stable energetically, therefore the fragmentation (or fission) thresholds of respective nuclei into constituent a-nuclei plus a residual nucleus lie in series starting in the region of quite low excitation energy.Since a-nuclei are strongly bound systems, they are hardly excited even when two a-nuclei are in a close distance. The fact that inter-nucleus forces between spin-isospin saturated nuclei are generally weak promotes further the tendency that a-nuclei preserve their identity in their interaction process.

In the presence of novel iron(II) chloride-diphosphine complexes and magnesium bromide, lithium arylborates react with primary and secondary alkyl halides to give the corresponding coupling products in good to excellent yields. High functional group compatibility is also demonstrated in the reactions of substrates possessing reactive substituents, such as alkoxycarbonyl, cyano, and carbonyl groups.

Baryon-baryon interactions for the complete baryon octet (B 8 ) are investigated in a unified framework of the resonating-group method, in which the spin-flavor SU 6 quark-model wave functions are employed. Model parameters are determined to reproduce properties of the nucleon-nucleon system and the low-energy cross section data for the hyperon-nucleon interaction. We then proceed to explore B 8 B 8 interactions in the strangeness S = −2, − 3 and −4 sectors. The S-wave phase-shift behavior and total cross sections are systematically understood by 1) the spin-flavor SU 6 symmetry, 2) the special role of the pion exchange and 3) the flavor symmetry breaking.
