Secondary Phosphine Oxides: Bifunctional Ligands in Catalysis
(Willey, 2020-06-10)
Metal complexes of secondary phosphine oxides (SPOs) were introduced as homogeneous catalysts in the 1980s for hydroformylation and hydrogenation with platinum as the metal. As neutral species, the ligand properties resemble ...
Salt-Marsh Foraminiferal Distributions from Mainland Northern Georgia, USA: An Assessment of Their Viability for Sea-Level Studies
(Ubiquity Press, 2020-03-26)
We investigated foraminiferal distributions from two salt-marsh sites at Thunderbolt and Georgetown, in mainland northern Georgia, U.S. Atlantic coast. We analyzed modern epifaunal foraminiferal assemblages across multiple ...
Probing α‐Amino Aldehydes as Weakly Acidic Pronucleophiles: Direct Access to Quaternary α‐Amino Aldehydes by an Enantioselective Michael Addition Catalyzed by Brønsted Bases
(Wiley, 2020-10-09)
The high tendency of α-amino aldehydes to undergo 1,2-additions and their relatively low stability under basic conditions have largely prevented their use as pronucleophiles in the realm of asymmetric catalysis, particularly ...
