    Notes: Examines the effects of four factors (the bundle: pure or mixed, the price discount, the functional complementarity of bundle components, and the number of bundle components) on consumers' intentions to purchase product and service bundles. The findings were relatively consistent across product (automobile) and service (automotive service) contexts, and illustrate that pure bundles are preferred to mixed bundles, and a greater price discount is preferred to a lesser one. The results also indicate that five component bundles generate greater purchase intention than either three or seven component bundles, and that "very related" bundle components result in greater purchase intention than either moderately or not related components. Additionally, several interactions are present.

    Notes: The price at which a product is offered often does not consist of a single item of information, for example VW Golf, price; DM25,476. Instead, a multidimensional pricing system is used, e.g. the price comprises a down payment, monthly installments and a repayment period in months. Despite the considerable significance of offers of this type for marketing policy, no information is presently available to describe how a consumer integrates the individual price dimensions (e.g. down payment, monthly installments and number of repayment periods) to form a global judgment. This article derives hypotheses to explain the formation of a price judgment about multidimensional prices. Then, an empirical study designed to verify the formulated hypotheses is described. Finally, this article discusses the implications of the results of the study.

    Notes: Market demarcation is based on the idea that a sales market is notan undifferentiated set of products, but that it rather embodies anentity made up of separate groups of products which differ with regardto certain demand-relevant characteristics. The term market demarcationis defined first as a market structure explained by drawing boundaries.Carrying on from this idea, describes a procedure for demarcatingmarkets. The procedure comprises three steps: the first aim is to definethe products which make up the overall market that has to be structured.The second task is to determine the centre on the basis of which theoverall market can be divided up into different submarkets. Finally,these submarkets must be identified using statistical methods.

    Notes: Abstract Existing models view variety seeking as the result of differences in the level of attribute satiation across attributes. An alternative within-attribute variety-seeking (WAVS) model is proposed. The model posits that variety seeking occurs among the nested features, or meaningful value ranges, of an underlying dimension. The resulting pattern of consumption is represented as an oscillation about a consumer's ideal point on the dimension. An empirical study that illustrates different oscillation patterns is reported.

    Notes: Abstract We have studied the kinetics of low pH-induced fusion between influenza virus A/PR 8/34 and human erythrocyte membranes in suspension by using an assay based on fluorescence dequenching (FDQ) of the lipophilic dye octadecylrhodamine B chloride (R 18). As shown previously (Clague et al. 1991) the onset of FDQ is preceded by a characteristic lag time (t lag) following pH reduction. Whereas t lag represents only a subpopulation of fusing viruses with the shortest delay time we suggest here that a representative mean lag time µ1ag of virus-cell fusion can be deduced from the R 18-assay. Kinetics of FDQ reflects the cumulative distribution function of lag times τlag of single fusion events with the mean value µlag. We show that t lag obtained from the onset of FDQ does not always reflect the fusion behaviour of the whole population of fusing viruses. While both lag times, t lag and µlag exhibit a similar temperature dependence we found a significantly different dependence of both delay times on virus inactivation by low pH-pretreatment. We conclude that the mean lag time µlag appears to be a more appropriate parameter describing the kinetics of virus-cell fusion. The analysis of delay times offers a new approach to test the validity of different kinetic models of HA-mediated fusion and to gain valuable information about HA-mediated fusion. The analysis confirms that the inactivation process proceeds via steps of the formation of the fusion pore. Although the increase of lag times can be explained by a depletion of fusion competent HA's, our data suggest that intermediate structures of HA along the inactivation pathway can still transform into a fusion site.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Deux multitraçages ont été réalisés dans l'une des zones principales de failles du bassin de Lange Bramke (massif du Harz, Allemagne); les résultats confirment le rôle prédominant de la zone de failles pour l'écoulement souterrain et le transport de soluté. Les traceurs, possédant des coefficients de diffusion différents (deutérium, bromure, uranine et éosine), ont fourni des courbes de restitution qui ne peuvent être expliquées que par un modèle qui associe un transport advectif-dispersif dans les fractures à un échange par diffusion moléculaire dans la matrice. A l'échelle des expériences (distance maximale de 225 m), l'influence des fractures adjacentes a été négligée. Ce modèle a fourni pour chaque traceur pratiquement les mêmes paramètres pour la roche et le transport, ce qui signifie que l'approximation de la fracture unique est acceptable et que la diffusion dans la matrice joue un rôle important. La conductivité hydraulique de la zone de faille fournie par les traçages est d'environ 1,5×10–2 m/s, alors que la conductivité hydraulique régionale de la roche fracturée dans son ensemble est de l'ordre de 3×10–7 m/s, selon l'estimation tirée des âges tritium et de la porosité de la matrice d'environ 2%. Ces valeurs montrent que la conductivité hydraulique le long de la faille est supérieure de plusieurs ordres de grandeur à celle de la partie fracturée restante de l'aquifère, ce qui confirme le rôle prédominant joué par les zones de failles comme drains de l'eau et comme axes d'écoulement rapide.
    Abstract: Resumen Dos ensayos con múltiples trazadores realizados en una de las zonas más fracturadas de la cuenca de Lange Bramke (Montes Harz, Alemania) confirman el papel dominante de la zona de fractura en el flujo de agua subterránea y el transporte de solutos. Trazadores con distintos coeficientes de difusión molecular (deuterio, bromuro, uranina y eosina) dieron curvas de llegada que sólo pueden ser explicadas mediante un modelo que acople el transporte advectivo-dispersivo en las fracturas con la difusión en la matriz. Para la escala de los ensayos (distancia máxima de 225 m), se usó como aproximación que la influencia de las fracturas adyacentes podía despreciarse. Este modelo dio lugar para cada trazador a valores muy similares de los parámetros de transporte, lo que supone que la aproximación de fractura única es aceptable y que la difusión en la matriz es un mecanismo importante. La conductividad hidráulica de la zona fracturada obtenida de los ensayos es de unos 1.5×10–2 m/s, mientras que la conductividad hidráulica regional para la matriz rocosa es de unos 3×10–7 m/s, valor estimado de la edad del tritio y la porosidad de la matriz es del 2%. Estos resultados indican que la conductividad hidráulica a lo largo de la fractura es varios órdenes de magnitud mayor que la correspondiente al resto de la parte fracturada del acuífero, lo que confirma el papel dominante de las fracturas como zonas conductoras preferentes de agua.
    Notes: Abstract  Two multitracer tests performed in one of the major cross-fault zones of the Lange Bramke basin (Harz Mountains, Germany) confirm the dominant role of the fault zone in groundwater flow and solute transport. Tracers having different coefficients of molecular diffusion (deuterium, bromide, uranine, and eosine) yielded breakthrough curves that can only be explained by a model that couples the advective–dispersive transport in the fractures with the molecular diffusion exchange in the matrix. For the scale of the tests (maximum distance of 225 m), an approximation was used in which the influence of adjacent fractures is neglected. That model yielded nearly the same rock and transport parameters for each tracer, which means that the single-fracture approximation is acceptable and that matrix diffusion plays an important role. The hydraulic conductivity of the fault zone obtained from the tracer tests is about 1.5×10–2 m/s, whereas the regional hydraulic conductivity of the fractured rock mass is about 3×10–7 m/s, as estimated from the tritium age and the matrix porosity of about 2%. These values show that the hydraulic conductivity along the fault is several orders of magnitude larger than that of the remaining fractured part of the aquifer, which confirms the dominant role of the fault zones as collectors of water and conductors of fast flow.

    Notes: The regioselectivity of multiple cyclopropanations of C70 with 2-bromopropanedioates in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) as base (Bingel reaction) was investigated in a systematic study. Bisadduct formation occurred preferentially at the 6—6 bonds formed by the most pyramidalized sp2-C-atoms at the two opposite poles of the fullerene and, in the reaction with achiral bis[(ethoxycarbonyl)methyl]2-bromopropanedioate (13a), yielded three constitutionally isomeric bis(methano)fullerenes (Scheme 2). Two of them, C2-symmetrical (±)-1 and (±)-2, are chiral; a fact which had not been considered in previous investigations. Formation of the third, C2v-symmetrical isomer 3 was observed for the first time. Configurational descriptions for fullerene derivatives which possess a chiral chromophore as a result of specific functionalization patterns are proposed. Cyclopropanations of C70 with optically active bis[(S)-1-phenylbutyl] 2-bromopropanedioate (13b) yielded five optically active, C2-symmetrical bis-adducts 7-11 which could be separated by preparative HPLC and fully characterized (Scheme 3, Fig.4). Compounds 7/8 and 9/10 represent two constitutionally isomeric pairs of diastereoisomers, and their circular dichroism (CD) spectra show pronounced Cotton effects mainly due to strong chiroptical contributions from the chirally functionalized fullerene chromophores (Fig.7). Since the addition patterns on the fullerene surface in each pair of diastereoisomers have an enantiomeric relationship, their CD spectra closely resemble those expected for two enantiomers. In the third constitutional isomer 11, the addition pattern on the fullerene surface is C2v-symmetrical, and optical activity only results from the chiral addends. Its CD spectrum shows weak Cotton effects mainly from induced circular dichroism originating from the perturbation of the achiral fullerene chromophore by the attached chiral addends. Addition of diethyl 2-bromopropanedioate (2 equiv.) to the C2-symmetrical racemic bis-adduct (±)-2 yielded a mixture of tris-adducts and one major, C2-symmetrical tetrakis-adduct (±)-4 which was isolated in pure form (Scheme 4). Starting from the achiral C2v-symmetrical bis-adduct 3, one single Cs-symmetrical tris-(5) and one C2v-symmetrical tetrakis-adduct (6) were obtained as major products which were isolated and fully characterized (Scheme 5). The regioselectivity for introduction of a second addend in the same hemisphere of C70 is high and resembles the preferred pattern of bis-addition seen in the functionalization of C60.

    Notes: The synthesis of (E)-hex-3-ene-l, 5-diynes and 3-methylidenepenta-1, 4-diynes with pendant methano[60]-fullerene moieties as precursors to C60-substituted poly(triacetylenes) (PTAs, Fig. 1) and expanded radialenes (Fig. 2) is described. The Bingel reaction of diethyl (E)-2, 3-dialkynylbut-2-ene-1, 4-diyl bis(2-bromopropane-dioates) 5 and 6 with two C60 molecules (Scheme 2) afforded the monomeric, silyl-protected PTA precursors 9 and 10 which, however, could not be effectively desilylated (Scheme 4). Also formed during the synthesis of 9 and 10, as well as during the reaction of C60 with thedesilylated analogue 16 (Scheme 5), were the macrocyclic products 11, 12, and 17, respectively, resulting from double Bingel addition to one C-sphere. Rigorous analysis revealed that this novel macrocyclization reaction proceeds with complete regio- and diastereoselectivity. The second approach to a suitable PTA monomer attempted N, N′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide(DCC)-mediated esterification of (E)-2, 3-diethynylbut-2-ene-l, 4-diol (18, Scheme 6) with mono-esterified methanofullerene-dicarboxylic acid 23; however, this synthesis yielded only the corresponding decarboxylated methanofullerene-carboxylic ester 27 (Scheme 7). To prevent decarboxylation, a spacer was inserted between the reacting carboxylic-acid moiety and the methane C-atom in carboxymethyl ethyl 1, 2-methano[60]fullerene-61, 61-dicarboxylate (28, Scheme 8), and DCC-mediated esterification with diol 18 afforded PTA monomer 32 in good yield. The formation of a suitable monomeric precursor 38 to C60-substituted expanded radialenes was achieved in 5 steps starting from dihydroxyacetone (Schemes 9 and 10), with the final step consisting of the DCC-mediated esterification of 28 with 2-[1-ethynyl(prop-2-ynylidene)]propane-1, 3-diol (33). The first mixed C60-C70 fullerene derivative 49, consisting of two methano[60]fullerenes attached to a methano[70]fullerene, was also prepared and fully characterized (Scheme 13). The Cs-symmetrical hybrid compound was obtained by DCC-mediated esterification of bis[2-(2-hydroxy-ethoxy)ethyl] 1, 2-methano[70]fullerene-71, 71-dicarboxylate (46) with an excess of the C60-carboxylic acid 28. The presence of two different fullerenes in the same molecule was reflected by its UV/VIS spectrum, which displayed the characteristic absorption bands of both the C70 and C60 mono-adducts, but at the same time indicated no electronic interaction between the different fullerene moieties. Cyclic voltammetry showed two reversible reduction steps for 49, and comparison with the corresponding C70 and C60 mono-adducts 46 and 30 indicated that the three fullerenes in the composite fullerene compound behave as independent redox centers.

    Notes: Nucleophilic Bingel cyclopropanation of D2-C76 with bis[(S)-1-phenylbutyl] 2-bromomalonate in toluene in the presence of base yielded three constitutionally isomeric pairs of diastereoisomeric mono-adducts together with one other constitutional isomer. All seven mono-adducts were isolated in optically pure form by prep. HPLC on a (S,S)-Whelk-O1 chiral stationary phase. They represent the first optically pure adducts of an inherently chiral fullerene. Characterization by UV/VIS, CD, 13C- and 1H-NMR spectroscopy allowed identification of pairs of stereoisomers and symmetry assignments: the two pairs of diastereoisomers which were isolated as the major product possess C1 symmetry, whereas the third pair of diastereoisomers, which is a minor product, is C2-symmetrical. The circular dichroism spectra of the optically active C76-adducts showed very pronounced Cotton effects resulting from strong chiroptical contributions of the chiral fullerene chromophore with the maximum observed Δε values being twice as high than those previously measured for optically active adducts of achiral fullerenes with a chiral addition pattern. Whereas the regioselectivity of mono-additions to C70 correlates with the degree of local bond curvature and the regioselectivity of multiple Bingel cyclopropanations of C60 with electronic parameters such as coefficients of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), no such simple predictive correlations exist for the nucleophilic addition to C76. Despite full spectral characterization, an unambiguous structural assignment of the isolated compounds was not possible, except for the two C2-symmetrical isomers. Based on considerations of local bond curvature and the previous experiences with the chemistry of C70, the structures of the C2-symmetrical stereoisomers were assigned as (S,S,fC)-3 and (S,S,fA)-3, resulting from addition to the polar α-type C(1)—C(6) bond.
