The prefixes "ortho-," "meta-" and "para-," along with their corresponding abbreviations ("o-," "m-" and "p-"), appear in italics and are ignored in alphabetizing. According to the actual chemical nomenclature rules in organic chemistry (in 2003), the numbers designating the positions of the disubstitution groups (1,2- for "ortho-," 1,3- for "meta-" and 1,4- for "para-") are to be preferred to the symbols "o-," "m-" and "p-." Furthermore, the prefixes "ortho-," "meta-" and "para-" should not be used anymore, and their corresponding abbreviations ("o-," "m-," and "p-") will soon be judged to be avoided, if not totally condemned.

An oxide of lead made by controlled heating of metallic lead having the formula PbO or OPb, appearing under the form of yellow crystals, insoluble in water, soluble in acids and alkalies, used chiefly in making plates for lead-lead acid cells, in compounding rubber, in glass, glazes, paints, varnishes and vitreous enamels, and in the manufacture of other lead compounds.

OBS

Commercial grades are yellow to reddish, depending on treatment and purity.

OBS

Not to be confused with "massicot" (q.v.), which refers to the natural lead monoxide (lead ocher).

OBS

litharge: This term is sometimes used broadly as a synonym for lead monoxide, but it refers specifically to lead monoxide obtained in flake or powdered form by processes carried out at temperatures above the melting point of the oxide.

C10H21Cl
formula, see observation
DEF

A commercial term referring to a chemical compound comprising mixed isomers, having the formula C10H21Cl, appearing under the form of a combustible, colorless liquid, used as a solvent for oils, fats, greases, resins, gums, in extractants and cleaning compounds, as an intermediate for insecticides, pharmaceuticals, plasticizers, polysulfide rubbers, resins and cationic surfactants.

OBS

The decyl "chain" as shown in formulas 5 through 9 is termed a "straight chain", as one carbon follows another, like the links of a chain. Structures 15 or 16 are termed "branched chains". [An illustration of the formulas follows.] The overall formula for 5-7, C10H21Cl, is the same. Formulas 5-7 each represents "decyl chloride." However 15 and 16 differ in a crucial way. The difference is that formulas 15 and 16 have two "CH3" groups near the left end of the molecule. This is seen more easily in 17, a "condensed formula" that is equivalent to the "line formula" 15. Furthermore, 15 to 17 have a single "CH" group present, whereas 7 has no "CH" groups, only "CH3" and "CH2" groups. The new structure 15 or 17 carries a different name: "isodecyl chloride."

In the funding of a pension plan, a contribution to reduce an unfunded actuarial liability arising from experience losses or the provision of benefits for a past service.

CONT

Defined benefit pension plans are one of the categories of pension plans that are subjected to the Supplemental Pension Plans Act. Because the benefits under such plans are set in advance under the plan's pension formula, such plans must meet very specific funding requirements. Thus, every defined benefit plan must undergo periodic valuations and if a deficit is identified, it is eliminated by as series of amortization payments to the pension fund.

Ils sont soumis à des exigences de financement très spécifiques compte tenu de la nature des prestations qu'ils promettent : une rente dont la formule est fixée à l'avance. Il est donc nécessaire que chaque régime à prestations déterminées soit soumis à des évaluations actuarielles périodiques et que des cotisations spéciales permettent de renflouer la caisse du régime lorsque des déficits apparaissent.

Chirality about the trigonal axis. The quenchers are 6-coordinate Co(III) complexes with the general stoichiometric formula Co(NH3) 4(ndp) or Co(NH3) 4(ntp), where ndp denotes a diphosphate nucleotide ligand and ntp denotes a triphosphate nucleotide ligand. In these complexes the nucleotide ligand is coordinated to Co(III) via bidentate chelation in which the donor moieties are oxygen atoms from adjacent phosphate groups(beta, alpha in ndp and gamma, beta in ntp nucleotides). The nucleotides used as ligands in Ln in this study are the following : adenosine diphosphate and triphosphate(adp and atp), guanosine diphosphate and triphosphate(gdp and gtp), inosine diphosphate and triphosphate(idp and itp), cytidine triphosphate(ctp), uridine triphosphate(utp), and deoxythymidine triphosphate(ttp). The Co(NH3) 4(nucleotide) complexes have dissymmetric structures both within and external to the Co(NH3) 4(phosphate) coordination unit, but under the conditions employed in this study, they exist as mixtures of diastereomers that are quasi-racemic with respect to chirality within the Co(NH3) 4(phosphate) coordination units.
