The Euclidean plane and Euclidean space themselves do not contain imaginary elements by definition, but are inextricably linked with them through special cases, and this leads to the need to propagate geometry into the area of imaginary values. Such propagation, that is adding a plane or space, a field of imaginary coordinates to the field of real coordinates leads to various variants of spaces of different dimensions, depending on the given axiomatics. Earlier, in a number of papers, were shown examples for solving some urgent problems of geometry using imaginary geometric images [2, 9, 11, 13, 15]. In this paper are considered constructions of orthogonal and diametrical positions of circles on a complex plane. A generalization has been made of the proposition about a circle on the complex plane orthogonally intersecting three given spheres on the proposition about a sphere in the complex space orthogonally intersecting four given spheres. Studies have shown that the diametrical position of circles on the Euclidean E-plane is an attribute of the orthogonal position of the circles’ imaginary components on the pseudo-Euclidean M-plane. Real, imaginary and degenerated to a point circles have been involved in structures and considered, have been demonstrated these circles’ forms, properties and attributes of their orthogonal position. Has been presented the construction of radical axes and a radical center for circles of the same and different types. A propagation of 2D mutual orthogonal position of circles on 3D spheres has been made. In figures, dashed lines indicate imaginary elements.

The chlorodecarboxylation reaction (Kochi reaction) of a series of cyclohexane and cyclohexene carboxylic acids was investigated. Competitive acetoxy decarboxylation occurs, and the proportion of acetates is shown to increase with steric hindrance due to the R-substituent relative to the radical center. A partial evolution involving high energy conformers is suggested to explain the difference of stereoselectivities in the formation of acetates and chlorides.

The technique of enhancing adhesion of PFPE (perfluoropolyether) lubricants to the carbon overcoat of magnetic media discs by irradiation with far-UV (185 nm) was reported some time ago.[1] It was later suggested that photoelectrons emanating from the carbon layer was responsible for the observed efficacy.[2] Capture of these low energy electrons by PFPE molecular chains would lead to detachment of a fluoride anion and formation of a radical center on the polymer backbone. Adhesion occurs when the radical center reacts with the carbon layer. Most recently this mechanism was challenged, and photo-cleavage of a CF2O unit from the molecular chain thus generating two radical chain fragments was proposed as the primary happening.[3] In either case the reaction commences at a point randomly selected on the molecular chain. The UV-curing process was not adopted into the production process until recently. The process is now being used for such lubricant mixtures as A20H/Z-dol and A20H/Z-tetraol. In these mixtures, however, an electro- or photo-chemistry involving the phosphazene moiety of A20H appears to play a major role.[4] One negative issue with the far-UV curing process is production of ozone if oxygen is present.
