✦ Synopsis

Coordinate and point transformations are studied in the context of conformal symmetry. When invariance requirements on arbitrary rank tensors are involved in both contexts, the similitudes and differences in transformation laws and invariance conditions are analysed in connection with those on tensor densities of weight IV. Physically interesting tensors like the metric tensor, the electromagnetic field and the energy-momentum tensor are specifically examined. Some remarks on scalar fields and densities are added.

Arenes and aromatic heterocycles have cyclic skeletons made up completely of unsaturated carbons. Through their dihapto coordination to a transition metal, controlled addition reactions can be accomplished with good stereocontrol, relative to the position of the metal. The metal can readily undergo
