Heavier Alkyne‐Ni0 Complexes, [R2E2·Ni] (E = Sn, Pb), Exhibiting σ‐Complex Character

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 32, 3 August 2026.
Using a reductive group elimination strategy, heavier alkyne (LEEL; E = Sn, Pb) complexes of Ni0 are accessed. In contrast to classical alkyne coordination, these systems are best described as σ‐complexes, driven by ligand‐induced constraints and the established poor π‐bonding in heavier alkyne analogues.

Abstract Few have asked what happens to gender when a noun is heteroclitic – when its inflection draws on more than one inflection class. While heteroclisis has moved from being treated as a marginal irregularity to a theoretically revealing phenomenon, its implications for gender assignment remain largely unexplored.

Dative Alternation and Dative Case Syncretism in Greek: The Use of Dative, Accusative and Prepositional Phrases in Documentary Papyri [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the Philological Society, 2016
AbstractThis paper explores the evidence for dative case syncretism with personal pronouns in post‐Classical Greek based on documentary papyri (300BCE–800CE). Three alternative encodings are examined for the animate goal of transfer verbs: the prepositionsprósandeis(with accusative) and the bare accusative case. It is shown that the dative case and the

Targeting protein–protein interactions with reversible covalent modalities: Non‐cysteine chemistries

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are central to diverse cellular functions, and represent a rapidly expanding class of therapeutic targets. Advancements in covalent drug design have enabled small‐molecule drugs to overcome challenges associated with engaging these targets, such as limited durations of action and difficult‐to‐drug (expansive,

Hedgehog Pillows and Squirrel Plates: Priming Semantic Structure in Children's Comprehension

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract We report three expression–picture‐matching experiments targeting preschoolers’ semantic processing. We assessed whether 3‐ and 4‐year‐olds’ interpretations of ambiguous novel noun–noun combinations (e.g., hedgehog pillow) were affected by immediate language experience and what role lexical items played in this process.

Language Dominance Shapes Protracted Development of Nonpersonal Clitics (Even) in Cases of Widespread Bilingualism

open access: yesLanguage Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Little research has explored how language dominance may affect the development and ultimate attainment of morphosyntax in a situation of widespread and social bilingualism, where exposure to both languages starts early on and can be sustained over time.
