Stable BF2 Boracycles as Versatile Reagents for Selective Ortho C–H Functionalization

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We report a robust, metal‐free and scalable synthesis of stable BF2 boracycles via directed ortho CH borylation, delivering isolable, shelf‐stable reagents without chromatographic purification. These BF2 boracycles exhibit unique and tunable reactivity, enabling highly selective ipso‐functionalization across a broad range of transformations.

The impact of the Russia–Ukraine war on stock prices, profits and perceptions in the food supply chain

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
Abstract The Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 had profound consequences for the global economy. As both countries are major commodity exporters, the food value chain was also affected. This study investigates the impact of the invasion on stock prices, profitability and sentiments of agribusinesses along the food supply chain by using an ...

Unlocking the Continuous Flow Asymmetric Hydrogenation of Olefins Through the Development of a Non‐Deactivating Immobilized Iridium Catalyst

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We have developed stable, robust, and reusable heterogeneous metal catalysts for an efficient continuous flow asymmetric hydrogenation (AH) of a variety of olefins, far beyond the typical benchmark AH. The products are produced continuously over long periods of time with high catalytic performance (up to 99% ee).

Agrochemical Poisoning [PDF]

, 2006
A general increase in the use of chemicals in agriculture has brought about a concomitant increase in the incidence of agrochemical poisoning. Organophosphates are the most common agrochemical poisons followed closely by herbicides. Many agricultural poisons, such as parathion and paraquat are now mixed with a coloring agent such as indigocarmine to ...

Photothermal Conversion Promotes Challenging SNAr for Facile C─N Bond Formation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Photothermal conversion enables facile aromatic C─N bond formation via red light irradiation. A variety of inter‐ and intramolecular SNAr transformations are achieved under mild, schematically simple conditions. Additionally, a thermally promoted halogen exchange mechanism provides access to aryl bromides, chlorides, and fluorides – making this ...

Assessing Agricultural Green Total Factor Productivity in Latin America

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The agricultural sector in Latin America plays a vital role in ensuring food security while impacting the environment. However, there remains a lack of analysis regarding the inputs responsible for pollution within its sub‐technologies. Hence, this article aims to assess agricultural green total factor productivity (TFP) through a novel ...
