Climate Change Mitigation in the Dairy Sector: Uncovering Heterogeneity Through Eco‐Efficiency Clubs

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combining climate change goals with economic targets is crucial for the dairy sector, which is a significant contributor to agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions worldwide. In this paper, we assess economic and climate change implications of dairy production with panel data of Irish dairy farms from 2013 to 2021.

Catalytic Enantioselective Multicomponent Reactions of Sulfoxonium Ylides Enabled by a Formal Rearrangement—A Versatile Entry to Enantioenriched α‐Sulfanyl Carbonyl Compounds

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A catalytic network embedding a formal rearrangement enables the first catalytic enantioselective multicomponent reaction (MCR) of sulfur ylides. In the presence of a bulky chiral phosphoric acid, the reaction combines sulfoxonium ylides, aldehydes and thiols, and affords synthetically versatile β‐hydroxy‐α‐sulfanyl carbonyl compounds in ...
