The calculations correctly predicted the stability order of the enantiomers in acetonitrile solution when the distinction between the enantiomers was above the declared threshold reliability value of 1 kcal mol;1 for computations at this level of theory. Thus, the calculations can not only be applied to predict the likely success of undertakings using the analytical method, it can also, provided ;E is sufficient, potentially be used to determine the absolute configuration of chiral analytes with at least the racemate in hand. The previously successful enantiodifferentiations of various amino acids and alcohols using chiral ion mobility spectroscopy (CIMS) with (S)-2-butanol as the chiral selector were also evaluated by DFT calculations. The calculations again correctly predicted the stability order of the enantiomers when the calculated ;E was above the threshold value though cases not providing a value for ;E above the threshold value was problematic for this system. Attempts to address this shortcoming included an expanded conformational evaluation, a broader analytical approach, and an extended basis set.}, language = {en} } @article{ModarresiNajafiRostamizadehetal.2007, author = {Modarresi, Ali Reza and Najafi, Parisa and Rostamizadeh, Mohsen and Keykha, Hossein and Bijanzadeh, Hamid-Reza and Kleinpeter, Erich}, title = {Dynamic 1H NMR study of the barrier to rotation about the C-N bond in primary carbamates and its solvent dependence}, year = {2007}, abstract = {The dynamic 1H NMR study of some primary carbamates in the solvents CDCl3 and CD3COCD3 between 183 and 298 K is reported.

This is particularly evident in, but not limited to, academia. In this paper, we propose a power analytical take on academic rankings as a transnational(izing) phenomenon. In doing so, we make two contributions. First, we develop a conceptual definition of rankings as consecratory institutions. After providing an overview of the most prominent types of rankings in the academic field and discussing the different forms they can take, we suggest that rankings operate through subjectivation, zero-sum comparisons, quantification, publication and generating a doxical belief. Second, we propose that rankings fulfil a strategic double function. As a particularly momentous consecratory institution, rankings propel power shifts in the academic field and beyond by preferring (and being pushed by) specific academic milieus, types of agents, paradigms, and strategies. As a dispositif, rankings operate at the intersection of different fields, open academic fields up for a lay audience and advance processes of transnationalization by facilitating new modes of governance for hubs of state institutions, private corporations, media corporations, and data providers. Concluding, we argue that the consecration and dispositif functions rely on some basic principles of the practical functioning of rankings.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BrandenburgerTeichmann2022, author = {Brandenburger, Bonny and Teichmann, Malte}, title = {Looking for participation}, series = {12th Conference on Learning Factories}, booktitle = {12th Conference on Learning Factories}, publisher = {Social Science Electronic Publishing}, address = {[Erscheinungsort nicht ermittelbar]}, issn = {1556-5068}, pages = {1 -- 6}, year = {2022}, abstract = {A stronger learner orientation through participatory learning increases learning motivation and results.
