    1 Table IR-8.1 Acceptable common names and fully systematic (additive) names for oxoacid and related structures. (March 2004) This Table includes compounds containing oxygen and hydrogen and at least one other element and with at least one OH group; certain isomers; and examples of corresponding partially and fully dehydronated anions. Formulae are given in the classical oxoacid format with the 'acid' (oxygen-bound) hydrogens listed first, followed by the central atom(s), then the hydrogen atoms bound directly to the central atom, and then the oxygen atoms (e.g. HBH2O, H2P2H2O5), except for chain compounds such as e.g. HOCN. In most cases formulae are also written as for coordination entities, assembled according to the principles of Chapter IR-7 (e.g. the Table gives 'HBH2O = [BH2(OH)]' and 'H2SO4 = [SO2(OH)2]'). More names of oxoanions are given in Table IX. Note that Section P-42 of Ref. 1 lists a great many inorganic oxoacid structures for use as parent structures in the naming of organic derivatives, cf. the discussion in Section IR-8.1. Most of those structures, but not all, are included here; a number of di- and polynuclear acids are not explicitly included.

Traylor, organic chemist and professor of chemistry at the University of California, San Diego. Acquisition Information Acquired 1994 Preferred Citation Teddy G. Traylor Papers, MSS 183. Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego. Biography Teddy G. Traylor was born in Sulphur, Oklahoma, on May 21, 1925. He did his undergraduate and graduate work in chemistry at UCLA and received a B.A. in 1949 and Ph.D. in 1952, under the direction of Saul Winstein. Traylor worked at Dow Chemical Company for six years, then as a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University for two years under Paul D. Bartlett. In 1961, Traylor joined the Chemistry Department at UCSD as an assistant professor and was promoted to the rank of professor in 1968. He served as department chairman (1973-1976) and actively participated in the long-range planning for and expansion of the department. Traylor conducted research in the fields of bioinorganic, organometallic and physical organic chemistry. His areas of study included oxymercuration of olefins, electrophilic substitution at saturated carbon, autoxidation of hydrocarbons, radical carbonium ions (and metallocene chemistry), carbon-carbon bond lengths, and biological oxygen transport and activation.

  • Ments on Growth of Aspergillus Niger '
    EFFECTS OF NITROGEN COMPOUNDS AND TRACE ELE- MENTS ON GROWTH OF ASPERGILLUS NIGER ' By RoBEKT A. STEINBERG Associate physiologist^ Division of Tobacco and Plant Nutrition, Bureau of Plant Industry, United States Department of Agriculture INTRODUCTION A further study of the essentiaUty of molybdenum (13) ^ and gallium (14) to Aspgergillus niger Van Tiegh. and of the existence of a direct relation between molybdenum and nitrate utilization is reported in thispjaper. It is generally accepted that ammonia is the form in which nitrogen serves for the elaboration of organic nitrogen by plants, other forms first undergoing transformation to ammonia. Nevertheless there exist in the literature statements to the contrary, the experimental foun- dations of which still lack other explanation. Kossowicz (6) concluded that when grown on rf-mannitol and nitrite, Aspergillus niger and other fungi utilized nitrite directly without previous reduction to ammonia. The studies of Lemoigne and his coworkers (7, 8, 9), on the other hand, have led these investigators to beUeve that hydroxylamine is the form of inorganic nitrogen converted by the organism into organic nitrogen. In the present investigation a study was made of growth with prac- tically all the known forms of inorganic nitrogen and with certain simple forms of organic nitrogen. The oversight sometimes made by previous investigators of neglecting to test the nutrient solution, just prior to inoculation, for purely chemical transformations has led to the assumption that all the compounds present were due to biological action. Perhaps the most serious question raised involves the exist- ence in plants of nitrite and hydroxylamine under normal conditions.
