A practical neutron shielding code based on data base interpolation.

Abstract

This work presents an interactive code, WRNS, based on data base interpolation for preliminary neutron shielding design. A wide-range data base of transmission factors is also generated for nine shielding materials having thicknesses up to 200 cm and for neutron energies up to 400 MeV by using adjoint calculations of a one-dimensional discrete ordinates code. In addition, calculation details of the interpolation code are clearly interpreted along with WRNS code applications presented as well.

Synthesis of highly substituted 5-(trifluoromethyl)ketoimidazoles using a mixed-solid/solution phase motif.

Using a combination of solid phase synthesis for the preparation of N-substituted-N-acylglycines 7 followed by solution-phase ring transformation of trifluoromethylacyl munchnone intermediate 8, a library of 200 trisubstituted-5-trifluoromethylketo (TFMK) imidazoles 9 was prepared. In a sublibrary, bromoacetate resin 4 was treated with 5 amines in parallel to give N-substituted glycines 5 followed by acylation with 12 acid chlorides to provide, upon cleavage from the resin, 60 individual N-substituted-N-acylglycines 7. The glycines 7 were converted to munchnones 8 by treatment with trifluoroacetic anhydride followed by reaction with benzamidine to give trisubstituted-5-TFMK-imidazoles 9. The structural content of the library was analyzed using PlateView of the LCMS results, and individual members were isolated by automated preparative LCMS.
