Nickel-Catalyzed Enantio- and Regioconvergent Synthesis of Allyl Aryl Thioethers from α- or γ-Silylated Allylic Chlorides

An enantio- and regioconvergent allylic substitution of non-symmetrical 1,3-disubstituted allylic chlorides with thiophenols under nickel catalysis is reported. The use of 18-crown-6 as an additive is crucial for obtaining good yields. Despite competing uncatalyzed nucleophilic d...

In situ electron microscopy of LaNiO3 transformation during reduction and methane dry reforming

Abstract By in situ electron microscopy we show the intermediate phase formation during decomposition of LaNiO 3 , a model methane dry reforming (DRM) catalyst, under different gas atmospheres. By combining dark- and bright-field imaging with secondary-electron contrast and opera...

Elucidating the Impact of Bacterial Composition and Diversity on Skin Homeostasis Using a Human 3D In Vitro Skin Model

The importance of the skin microbiome in human health has become increasingly evident. Despite considerable advancements, complex host–microbe interactions remain largely unexplored, primarily due to a paucity of models mimicking human skin and maintaining bacterial diversity in...

What law students need

Abstract This paper explores the specific expectations and needs of law students with regard to an introductory Python course tailored to their unique academic and professional requirements. The study involved semi-structured interviews with law students at the University of Mann...

Key factors for growth and phosphate uptake by Acinetobacter tjernbergiae

Abstract Phosphorus-containing fertilisers are essential for global food production but depend on finite phosphate rock reserves. Recovery of phosphorus from waste streams, such as those in wastewater treatment plants, will be required to follow future regulations. Certain Acinet...

Probabilistic surrogate modeling for gas foil bearing stability

Abstract In the context of Industry 4.0, improving the reliability and efficiency of rotating machinery remains a relevant challenge, particularly for systems employing Gas Foil Bearings (GFBs). This paper investigates the development of surrogate models based on Bayesian Neural...
