Palladium-Catalyzed Carbo-Oxygenation of Propargylic Amines using in Situ Tether Formation

Jérôme Waser, Phillip Gulliver Dominic Greenwood, Erwann Stefan Grenet

1,2-Amino alcohols and -aminocarbonyls are frequently found in natural products, drugs, chiral auxiliaries, and catalysts. This work reports a new method for the palladium-catalyzed oxyalkynylation and oxyarylation of propargylic amines. The reaction is pe ...

Fast Potentiometric CO2 Sensor for High-Resolution in Situ Measurements in Fresh Water Systems

Nadezda Pankratova, Bernhard Wehrli

We present a new potentiometric sensor principle and a calibration protocol for in situ profiling of dissolved CO2 with high temporal and spatial resolution in fresh water lakes. The sensor system is based on the measurement of EMF between two solid-contac ...

Signatures of selection and environmental adaptation across the goat genome post-domestication

Stéphane Joost, Estelle Rochat

Background: Since goat was domesticated 10,000 years ago, many factors have contributed to the differentiation of goat breeds and these are classified mainly into two types: (i) adaptation to different breeding systems and/or purposes and (ii) adaptation t ...

Inferring species interactions in ecological communities: a comparison of methods at different levels of complexity

Andrea Rinaldo, Andrea Giometto, Francesco Carrara, Florian Altermatt

Natural communities commonly contain many different species and functional groups, and multiple types of species interactions act simultaneously, such as competition, predation, commensalism or mutualism. However, experimental and theoretical investigat ...

Atypical relaxation of structural constraints in Hox gene clusters of the green anole lizard

Denis Duboule

Hox genes control many aspects of embryonic development in metazoans. Previous analyses of this gene family revealed a surprising diversity in terms of gene number and organization between various animal species. In vertebrates, Hox genes are grouped into ...

In-Situ vs. Ex-Situ Nanocrystallization of Mn-Doped ZnO

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Zlatko Mickovic

Following the current interest in transition metal doped dielectrics for spintronic applications, Mn-doped ZnO is being made by thermal decomposition of Mn-doped hydrozincite,  (MnxZn1–x)5(OH)6–2n (CO3)1+n, precursors that have been prepared by a novel syn ...

On biodiversity in river networks: A trade-off metapopulation model and comparative analysis

Andrea Rinaldo

A discrete, structured metapopulation model is coupled with the strictly hierarchical competition-colonization trade-off model, in which competitively superior species have lower fecundity rates and thus lower colonizing ability, to study the resulting bio ...
