1,4‐Brook Rearrangement of β‐Silyl Allylic Alcohols: Trisubstituted Alkenes by Copper‐Mediated Stereoretentive ipso‐Substitution Reactions

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
To fully leverage the power of the ruthenium‐catalyzed trans‐hydrosilylation of propargyl alcohols, it was necessary to develop a practical and robust method for the activation of those products that carry the silyl group distal to the hydroxy substituent.

Ecosystem functioning, ecosystem services and rooibos production as affected by connectivity to natural vegetation and agrochemical use in rooibos tea (Aspalathus linearis) farming [PDF]

, 2011
Globally, increasing land-use intensity has led to more intensive farming practices at the local scale and the loss of non-crop habitats at the landscape scale which may affect various ecosystem services.

Crystal Structure Prediction of Inorganic Materials: A Benchmark and Modern Evaluation

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Predicting a crystal’s structure from composition alone is a long‐standing challenge in materials discovery. The CSP180 benchmark of 180 inorganic crystals evaluates thirteen crystal structure prediction algorithms requiring no density functional theory (DFT) against DFT‐based baselines across twelve metrics.

The Strategic Role of Sustainability Certifications: A Multi‐Theoretical Framework and Comparative Analysis in the Global Wine Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainability certifications are increasingly embedded in the governance and competitiveness of the wine sector, yet their strategic role remains under‐theorised. This study conceptualises certifications as multidimensional strategic mechanisms and conducts a comparative analysis of 50 schemes used in the global wine industry.

From Global Standards to Local Compliance: Implementation Heterogeneity in Cocoa Certification in Indonesia

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certified companies translate voluntary sustainability standards (VSS) into local practice, yet little is known about how company‐level implementation of VSS relates to farmer compliance. This paper examines Rainforest Alliance (RA) implementation by three certified companies in the Indonesian cocoa sector. Drawing on compliance and regulatory

Dual‐Function Electrocatalysis: Simultaneous Wastewater Remediation and Hydrogen Evolution—A Comprehensive Review

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Replacing the oxygen evolution reaction with the electro‐oxidation of pollutants and waste streams offers an energy‐efficient route for simultaneous hydrogen production and pollutant remediation. This review summarizes the reaction mechanisms, catalyst design principles, and emerging paired‐electrolysis strategies that govern activity, selectivity ...

Amino Acid and Biogenic Amine Profiles in Sausages Reformulated With Processed, Fermented Oyster Mushrooms

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
This research showed that sausage reformulation preserves high essential amino acid and branched‐chain amino acid content, as well as increasing free amino acids (FAA) related to umami flavor and health‐promoting components such as GABA in the products.
