Combined chemical and optical methods for monitoring the early decay stages of surrogate human models
(2011)As the body decays shortly after death, a variety of gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) constantly emanate. Ethical and practical reasons limit the use of human corpses in controlled, time-dependent, intervening ...

Electron affinities of a homologous series of tertiary alkyl radicals and their C-H bond dissociation energies (BDEs)
(2009)Heats of formation have been derived from G3(MP2)//B3LYP and G3MP2B3(+) atomization energies for tert-butyl radical (6R), cubyl radical, bicyclooctyl radical (1R), and tricyclo[3.3.n.03,7]alk-3(7)-yl (n=0-3, 2R-5R) radicals, ...

Preliminary investigation of using volatile organic compounds from human expired air, blood and urine for locating entrapped people in earthquakes
(2005)A preliminary investigation on the possibility of using volatile organic compounds (VOCs) determination of expired air, blood and urine, for the early location of entrapped people in earthquakes, has been carried out. A ...

Singlet hydrocarbon carbenes with high barriers toward isomerization: A computational investigation
(2003)A prerequisite for a stable singlet hydrocarbon carbene is the existence of high barriers toward isomerization. Four derivatives of cyclopentylidene (1-4) with rigid and varying carbon cages are examined computationally ...
