Corporate ESG Greenwashing: Does Regulatory Proximity Matter?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) greenwashing undermines sustainable development, yet the influence of regulatory proximity on oversight is understudied. By introducing the “distance decay effect” from geoeconomics into ESG misconduct research and using a sample of Chinese listed firms from 2009 to 2022, this study reveals a ...

CEO Compensation and the ESG Activities of Compensation Peers

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between executive compensation at focal firms and the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance of compensation peer (CP) firms. Despite the growing integration of ESG metrics into executive compensation design, and the mandatory disclosure of CP groups, no prior research has examined ...

Alkali‐Metal Base Catalyzed Electrocyclization of Isoprene Derivatives

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Simple and abundant alkali‐metal base catalysis in combination with Lewis basic polyamines enables the electrocyclization of isoprene‐derived trienes to cycloheptadienes under neat conditions. Mechanistic insight supported by DFT guides a scalable route to seven‐membered carbocycles which, after reduction, give saturated cycloalkanes relevant as ...

Fluorogenic Sydnones for Bioorthogonal Labeling of DNA

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Conjugates of sydnones with cyanine‐styryl dyes combine bioorthogonal reactivity with fluorogenicity. The reactivity with bicyclo[6.1.0]non‐4‐yne (BCN)‐modified DNA showed second‐order rate constants of up to k2 = 2,300 M−1s−1 and fluorescence turn‐on by one magnitude of order.

Release of multicomponent pheromones from porous fibres

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface engineering empowers a polymer exclusion net to serve dual functions: physical exclusion and pheromonal release, allowing for pest control in agricultural crops. In previous work, a net woven from porous fibres releasing simple, single‐component alarm pheromones showed promising results in field tests.

Corporate Social Responsibility and Corporate Tax Avoidance in Europe: Evidence From the Anti‐Tax Avoidance Directives

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and corporate tax avoidance (CTA) in the European Union, exploiting institutional variation arising from CSR disclosure regimes and the introduction of the Anti‐Tax Avoidance Directives (ATAD).

Redox‐Active Bisphosphines Based on a W(II)‐Propargyl Complex Backbone

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Three bisphosphine ligands based on tungsten(II) propargyl‐type alkyne complexes were synthesized and characterized. The methanolate derivative was used as a metalla‐ligand for the preparation of a binuclear bisphosphine‐κ2‐PdCl2 complex. In both cases, IR spectroelectrochemistry (IR‐SEC) measurements revealed a successive process following oxidation ...

Safracin B as a Synthetic Linchpin: From Natural Product to Drug Intermediate and Beyond

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Safracin B is employed as a key precursor for the streamlined preparation of cyanosafracin B and safracin A. Careful tuning of the reaction parameters affords these derivatives in high efficiency, and full nuclear magnetic resonance signal assignments are established for the complex safracin frameworks.

The second unprovoked seizure in a cohort of treated patients with a first unprovoked seizure

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the rate of a second unprovoked seizure in antiseizure medications (ASMs)‐treated patients following a first unprovoked seizure and to identify potential risk factors associated with its occurrence. Methods A retrospective review of the computerized database and the medical records of all the patients who presented to ...

Epilepsy in emerging adulthood: Clinical, psychosocial, and surgical challenges

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Emerging adulthood (EAs; ages 19–29 years) is a unique developmental stage marked by major psychological, social, and occupational transitions. We sought to characterize the clinical, psychosocial, and surgical features of epilepsy in emerging adulthood, considering both current age and age at epilepsy onset.
