Diastereoselective hydroalkylation of aryl alkenes enabled by remote hydride transfer by Gandamana, Dhika Aditya, Gagosz, Fabien, Chiba, Shunsuke

“…Leveraging of 1,5-hydride shift enabled diastereoselective hydroalkylation of aryl alkenes, allowing for construction of consecutive vicinal stereogenic centers in a single process. The transformation is triggered by electrophilic alkylation of aryl alkenes with in-situ generated carbocations, that is followed by diastereoselective 1,5-hydride shift to the resulting benzylic carbocation through a rigid 6-membered ring chair-like transition state.…”

Disruption of the Broadcast by Packer, Randall

“…And conversely, with the emerging tools of the Web, self-publishing blogs, and social media, artists are increasingly engaged in reporting news and opinion, becoming their own media outlets, distribution centers, and independent news feeds. In this sense, the new media artist uses technological means to take control of media information and broadcast it according to their own perspective.…”

NiMn-based bimetal-organic framework nanosheets supported on multi-channel carbon fibers for efficient oxygen electrocatalysis by Cheng, Weiren, Lu, Xue Feng, Luan, Deyan, Lou, David Xiong Wen

“…X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the strong synergetic effect of adjacent Ni and Mn nodes within MCCF/NiMn-MOFs effectively promotes the thermodynamic formation of key *O and *OOH intermediates over active NiO6 centers towards fast ORR and OER kinetics.…”

Three essays on corporate finance by Fu, Kangkang

“…Moreover, from the principal customers’ perspective, a higher level of environmental risk lowers a supplier firm’s probability of being selected relative to its industry peers by its potential customer. Conditional on an ongoing relationship with principal customers, supplier firms with high environmental risk have lower sales to principal customers and shorter relationship durations. …”

A two-part mixed-effects model for analyzing clustered time-to-event data with clumping at zero by Zhao, Jian, Zhao, Yun, Xiang, Liming, Khanal, Vishnu, Binns, Colin W, Lee, Andy H.

“…Furthermore, subjects are often clustered within hospitals, communities or health service centers, resulting in correlated observations. The framework of the two-part model has been developed and utilized widely to analyze semi-continuous data or count data with excess zeros, but its application to clustered time-to-event data with clumping at zero remains sparse.…”

The effects of processing conditions on the morphology of single conjugated polymers. by Yeo, Hui Lin.

“…Spun-cast single chains were largely found to give neat intensity traces exhibiting discrete emission levels and clear off-states, suggesting a compact and collapsed disordered conformation favoring efficient energy funneling to one or a few low-energy exciton traps. These emissive centers of the collapsed chain were proposed to be intrachain aggregates consisting of closely π-stacked segments, therefore possessing weak oscillator strength and an extended radiative lifetime. …”
