Let $R$ be a commutative ring. The purpose of this article is to introduce a new class of ideals of R called weakly irreducible ideals. This class could be a generalization of the families quasi-primary ideals and strongly irreducible ideals. The relationships between the notions primary, quasi-primary, weakly irreducible, strongly irreducible and irreducible ideals, in different rings, has bee...

let $r$ be a ring‎, ‎and let $n‎, ‎d$ be non-negative integers‎. ‎a right $r$-module $m$ is called $(n‎, ‎d)$-projective if $ext^{d+1}_r(m‎, ‎a)=0$ for every $n$-copresented right $r$-module $a$‎. ‎$r$ is called right $n$-cocoherent if every $n$-copresented right $r$-module is $(n+1)$-coprese-nted‎, ‎it is called a right co-$(n,d)$-ring if every right $r$-module is $(n‎, ‎d)$-projective‎. ‎$r$ ...

In 1977 Hartwig and Luh asked whether an element a in a Dedekind-finite ring R satisfying aR = a2R also satisfies Ra = Ra2. In this paper, we answer this question in the negative. We also prove that if a is an element of a Dedekind-finite exchange ring R and aR = a2R, then Ra = Ra2. This gives an easier proof of Dischinger’s theorem that left strongly π-regular rings are right strongly π-regula...

A module $M$ is said to be coretractable if there exists a nonzero homomorphism of every nonzero factor of $M$ into $M$. We prove that all right (left) modules over a ring are coretractable if and only if the ring is Morita equivalent to a finite product of local right and left perfect rings.

A convergent total synthesis of ouabagenin, an aglycon of cardenolide glycoside ouabain, was achieved by assembly of the AB-ring, D-ring and butenolide moieties. The multiply oxygenated cis-decalin structure of the AB-ring was constructed from (R)-perillaldehyde through the Diels-Alder reaction and sequential oxidations. The intermolecular acetal formation of the AB-ring and D-ring fragments, a...

Progress toward a highly convergent, asymmetric synthesis of brevenal is reported. Construction of the AB-ring and E-ring cyclic ether fragments was achieved through asymmetric alkylation/ring-closing metathesis strategies. A Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination was used in a key bond-forming step to couple the advanced cyclic fragments and enable rapid access to the AB-E ring system.

1. Given any associative ring A one can construct from its operations and elements a new ring, the Jordan ring of A, by defining the product in this ring to be a o b = ab+ba for all a, b^A, where the product ab signifies the product of a and b in the associative ring A itself. If R is any ring, associative or otherwise, by a derivation of R we shall mean a function, ', mapping R into itself so ...

Let $alpha$ be an automorphism of a ring $R$. The authors [On skewinverse Laurent-serieswise Armendariz rings, Comm. Algebra 40(1)(2012) 138-156] applied the concept of Armendariz rings to inverseskew Laurent series rings and introduced skew inverseLaurent-serieswise Armendariz rings. In this article, we study on aspecial type of these rings and introduce strongly Armendariz ringsof inverse ske...
