Although photolysis of phenyazide has been widely reported to give 3H-azepine, the thermal deoxygenation reaction of alkylnitrobenzene derived similar products hitherto unexplored. Novel synthesis of 2-methoxy-3H-azepine derivatives was carried out using alkylnitrobenzene with tributylphosphine (Bu3P) reacted at 150°C for 24 hours in the presence of methanol. Reaction of m-nitrobenzene with the above methods gave two isomers of 3H-azepine, namely, 2-methoxy-6-methyl-3H-azepine and 2-methoxy-4-methyl-3H-azepine in 61%. Reaction of 2,3-dimethylnitrobenzene with Bu3P afforded the three isomers, that is, 2-methoxy-6,7-dimethyl-3H-azepine; 2-methoxy-3,4-dimethyl-3H-azepine and 7-methoxy-5,6-dimethyl-4H-azepine. Reaction of 3,5-dimethylnitrobenzene gave the sole product of 2-methoxy-4,6-dimethyl-3H-azepine in 42%. In contrast, reaction of 2,6-dimethylnitrobenzene didn’t give any product because the steric effect of methyl groups attached on C2 and C6. Structure elucidation of all novel products have confirmed by HETCOR.

The research on microtremor and geoelectric resistivity around Trans Timor Primary Artery Road to disaster mitigation, has been done. The aims of this research were to obtain the Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) value, the soil dominant frequency, seismic vulnerability index and to estimate the thickness of sediment layer. Microtremor data collection was done by using a three-component seismometer, DS-4A feedback short-period, at 52 points with 250 m interval. Dominant frequency and amplification factors were obtained by using curve analysis method, horizontal to vertical spectral ratio (HVSR). The PGA value was calculated using Kanai empirical equations, where the data of dominant period were obtained from the inversion of frequency values while the parameters of the earthquake were based on seismic events in the last 50 years, from 1963 to 2013 with magnitude of ≥ 3. Geoelectric measurements were conducted using a Resistivity-meter OYO, based on Wenner Schlumberger configuration and it was divided into two lines, with length of 400 m each. From the results obtained by PGA value is ranged between 80 and 500 gal with level of risk moderate two to very large one. The distribution value of the soil dominant frequency was 0.62 Hz-18.27 Hz, while the distribution of the seismic vulnerability index ranged from 0.21 to 21.83. The type of soil is dominated by clay and alluvium as top soil and its thickness varies from 10 m to 50 m, strengthened by limestone as bedrock.

A research regarding seeping in Bajulmati Dam of Banyuwangi Regency based on lithology analysis by geomagnetic data has been done to discover the location of zone with seeping potential. This research is done by analyzing lithology from magnetic data (primary data) that was acquired from the field that covers the area of Bajulmati Dam. The research began with the acquisition of magnetic data using PPM (proton procession Magnetometer). Acquired data is then corrected by diurnal and IGRF correction, reduction in to even surface, upward continuation as well as reduction to the pole. Local anomaly contour is acquired with the value ranging from -1000 nT up to 700 nT at loop 1 and ranging from -2800 nT up to 1600 nT at loop 2. Based on the result of data processing by magnetic method, the subsurface layers beneath the said dam consist of the layer of clay (tuff), sandstone, gravel, and volcanic lava. By analyzing the mentioned results, some cracks are located in AA’ line with the measurement point of 20 m and 90 m, and in the 120 m and 160 m, 80 m and 100 m measurement point of BB’, and CC’ line respectively. Those cracks can be expected to cause seepage in Bajulmati Dam.

Vibration can be measured by measuring each of several parameter, for example displacement, velocity and acceleration.There are many sensor that can be used in this measurement. Velocitymeter and accelerometer are the examples of vibration sensors. Accelerometer, generally use to measure acceleration, can be modified to measure velocity of vibration as the velocitymeter done. Accelerometer MEMS MMA7361L with the signal conditioning circuits, that is band pass filter and integrator, had been designed and assembled to measure the velocity of vibration. Velocity signal is produced in this circuit because of the integration process from integrator circuit. In design application, this circuits have a good performance in low frequency measurement like the velocitymeter done. But in practical, there are some deficiencies. This circuits can measure 0,86 Hz – 2,99 Hz frequency of low amplitude signal. The signal that is measured is about 1 volt below. Signal also have some distortion in negative swing. Hence, other new component for this real design is very needed to upgrade the performance of circuit in producing a good and non distortion signal for recording and displaying system easily. The output signal of circuit is velocity signal but it is still cannot be said to be the true measuring data. By adding calibration and the right formula, the magnitude of velocity can be gainned, so that this circuit can be said to be feasible as velocitymeter.

The effective method in making chromosome prepararation was able to count the number of chromosome easier, especially for analysis the ploidy level in plants. Garlic (Allium sativum L.) is one of the plants that the chromosome is difficult to be counted because their chromosomes are long and difficult to spread during the squashing. This research was to find out the effect of hydroxiquinoline on making chromosome preparation of root and callus in garlic. The steps of making chromosome preparation were fixation in Farmer’s fluid, put in hydroxiquinoline for an hour, hydrolysis in 1N HCl for two minutes at 60°C, put in Carnoy for 30 minutes, and stained in 1% aceto orcein for 20 minutes. The treatment were gift hydroxiquinoline for an hour after put in fixative fluid and the control were making preparation without gift hydroxiquinoline. The result of this research suggest that the method of making preparation by treatment with hydroxiquinoline for an hour after fixation produced the chromosomes that the stain were sharp and contrast, and also it produced well spread chromosomes that were clearly defined of both callus and root tip in garlic.

Survival analysis is a collection of statistical procedures for data analyzing, where respon variables caused by time until an event occurs. One of application of survival regression’s purpose is to know dengue hemorragic fever. Since the spread of dengue hemorragic fever caused by the spread of mosquito, there is probability that event in one location affects other event in another locations thus, it is better to model with Bayessian method of spatial survival. Model includes random spatial effect CAR to overcome the spatial effect in survival model using queen contiguity type weight. This study aimed to obtain spatial survival model one survival data year of 2013 which was the event of dengue hemorragic fever in city of Malang. Based on the data, moran value I was -0.5930 with Z-test value equal to -2,002, which means there is a spatial autocorelation on the event of dengue hemorragic fever in city of Malang. Spatial survival model with Weibull-3 Parameter (Weibull-3P) distribution obtained the factors significantly affecting dengue hemorragic fever, which were sex, hematrocit rate, thrombocyte volume had equal rate of healing in each subdistrict.
