Kinetic studies of polyene exchange and substitution in low valent octahedral metal complexes
Thesis
Ashford, N. F. (1987). Kinetic studies of polyene exchange and substitution in low valent octahedral metal complexes

The kinetics of polyene exchange and substitution in (polyene)Cr(CO)3 complexes has been investigated. The exchange reaction involving displacement of complexed polyene for free polyene (Chapter 2) has shown two competing rate determining pathways to...

Mechanisms and conditions of deformation in quartzites from the Cantabrian and west Asturian-Leonese zones, north Spain
Thesis
Blenkinsop, T. G. (1987). Mechanisms and conditions of deformation in quartzites from the Cantabrian and west Asturian-Leonese zones, north Spain

Deformation mechanisms and conditions have been studied, principally in Ordovician quartzites, from the Cantabrian and West Asturian-leonese zones, north Spain. The quartzites have been strongly deformed at shallow crustal levels during the Variscan...
