A highly strained Al-Al σ-bond in dianionic aluminum analog of oxirane for molecule activation by Koshino, Kota, Kinjo, Rei

“…The structure of 2 has been unambiguously ascertained by spectroscopic analysis as well as X-ray crystallography, and computational studies revealed that 2 bears a highly strained Al-Al σ-bond. 2 readily reacts with the unsaturated substrates such as isocyanide, ethylene, and ketone, concomitant with the cleavage of the Al-Al σ-bond under mild conditions, leading to the four- and five-membered heterocycles 3-5. …”

Fragmentation of white phosphorus by a cyclic (alkyl)(amino)alumanyl anion by Koshino, Kota, Kinjo, Rei

“…Structural and electronic features of the latter were fully characterized by standard spectroscopic means, X-ray diffraction analysis, and computational studies, which revealed that 2 bears highly polarized Al (δ+) and P (δ-) and relatively short Al-P bonds, indicative of the σ-donating and π-accepting nature of CAAAl groups.…”

South and East Asian cinemas across borders: critical trends in transnational cinema by Clini, Clelia, Yangling, Yang, Dasgupta, Rohit K.

“…At a time of resurgent nationalisms and increasing fortifications of (actual and symbolic) borders, the chapters in this book explore cinematic work that challenge these boundaries and promote a reflection on the social, cultural, political and economic value of international exchanges and collaborations within the context of Asia. …”

Development of novel monitors for early detection of fouling in reverse osmosis systems by Sim, Victor Siang Tze

“…As the primary energy use in an RO system is the power required for the high pressure to pump the feed water and is directly related to the feed pressure and flow rate, savings can come in the energy costs in pre‐empting fouling problems. …”

Electrospinning of low density PCL fibers on SLS scaffold by Leong, Yew Meng.

“…In this study, PCL fibers were spun on a spinning mandrel collector and investigated to examine the effects of electrospinning parameters- acceleration voltage and feed rate on fiber diameter. Hence both small (0.5-1um) and large (8-10um) fibers were attempted to be spun by varying acceleration voltage and feed rate. …”
