The interface control domain decomposition (ICDD) method of Discacciati, Gervasio, and Quarteroni [SIAM J. Control Optim., 51 (2013), pp. 3434-3458, doi:10.1137/120890764; J. Coupled Syst. Multiscale Dyn., 1 (2013), pp. 372-392, doi:10.1166/jcsmd.2013.1026 ...
Metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are powerful and widespread methods for the carbon-carbon bond formation. Among the electrophile partners, non-activated alkyl halides remain challenging substrates because of their reluctance towards oxidative addi ...
This paper demonstrates that an array of cantilever sensors can be operated simultaneously at resonance using a single actuator and a single photodetector. Self-sustained oscillations (SSOs) of cantilevers can be achieved in a feed-back loop using gain sat ...
Methyltransferases (MTases) form a large family of enzymes that methylate a diverse set of targets, ranging from the three major biopolymers to small molecules. Most of these MTases use the cofactor S-adenosyl-l-Methionine (AdoMet) as a methyl source. In r ...
Transition metal catalyzed cross-coupling reactions occupy a privileged position in chemistry because of their ability to link myriad functional groups. The numerous variants of this reaction types (e.g., Suzuki, Kumada, Negishi, etc.) differ in the transm ...
(Hetero)Aryl amines, an important class of organic molecules in medicinal chemistry, are most commonly synthesized from anilines, which are in turn synthesized by hydrogenation of nitroarenes. Amine synthesis directly from nitroarenes is attractive due to ...
Reaction of alkyl isocyanides, phenyl vinyl selenone, and water in the presence of a catalytic amount of Cs2CO3 afforded oxazolidin-2-ones in good yields. This unprecedented heteroannulation process created four chemical bonds in a single operation with th ...
A new series of Ni NNN pincer complexes were synthesized and characterized. The main difference among these complexes is the substituents on the side arm amino group(s). No major structural difference was found except for the C-N-C angle of the various sub ...
In this review, a personal account of our work in the field of hypervalent iodine reagents is presented. Pioneering experiments, which led to the discovery of the exceptional reactivity of EthynynnnlBenziodoXol( on)e (EBX) reagents as electrophilic alkyne ...
In an M/M/1/C queue, customers are lost when they arrive to find C customers already present. Assuming that each arriving customer brings a certain amount of revenue, we are interested in calculating the value of an extra waiting place in terms of the expe ...
