Codes are built from scratch live and can easily become volatile or unstable because there's often no back-up infrastructure to support or reinforce them. .
Under conditions analogous to the TrOMe reaction conditions, aromatic acetals like benzaldehyde dimethyl acetal and dimethoxymethane were effective (Scheme 3), and in the latter case provided Me2O as an easily removed volatile byproduct.
Headline inflation is easily bent by volatile prices.
(Scientifically speaking, Dr. Dalton said, cat urine is more offensive than dog urine because of the greater amount of sulfur, which is "easily airborne, very volatile, and humans have an incredibly good sensitivity for detecting").
What's more, the poor are easily steered toward volatile behavior.
The halides have properties generally characteristic of nonmetal halides (being volatile, easily hydrolyzed, and soluble in organic solvents).
As Pearlstein acknowledges in his column, "relatively few biotech companies ever succeed — share prices tend to be volatile, easily moved by rumors and news of regulatory action".
Physically, nonmetals tend to be highly volatile (easily vaporised), have low elasticity, and are good insulators of heat and electricity; chemically, they tend to have high ionization energy and electronegativity values, and gain or share electrons when they react with other elements or compounds.
All these solvent constituents, necessary for good bioassay performance, cause significant ionization suppression in ESI MS. In several cases, the phosphate buffer in a bioassay can be easily replaced by volatile and MS-compatible alternatives, for example ammonium formate or ammonium acetate solutions (pH between 6 and 7.5).
If there are any signs that the person you are with might be volatile, easily angered, flares up without provocation, throws things, has tantrums, etc., then move on before you're stuck deeper.
