Exploring cocoa bean fermentation mechanisms by kinetic modelling
Compared with other fermentation processes in food industry, cocoa bean fermentation is uncontrolled and not standardized. A detailed mechanistic understanding can therefore be relevant for cocoa bean quality control.

An air-stable bisboron complex: a practical bidentate Lewis acid catalyst
We report an air-stable bisboron complex as an efficient catalyst for the inverse electron-demand Diels–Alder (IEDDA) reaction of 1,2-diazine as well as 1,2,4,5-tetrazine.

Ring-locking enables selective anhydrosugar synthesis from carbohydrate pyrolysis
The selective production of platform chemicals from thermal conversion of biomass-derived carbohydrates is challenging. As precursors to natural products and drug molecules, anhydrosugars are difficult to synthesize from simple carbohydrates in large ...

NeoPHOX – a structurally tunable ligand system for asymmetric catalysis
A synthesis of new NeoPHOX ligands derived from serine or threonine has been developed. The central intermediate is a NeoPHOX derivative bearing a methoxycarbonyl group at the stereogenic center next to the oxazoline N atom.

Tree-Ring Dating and Archaeology in the American Southwest
The relationship between archaeology and tree-ring dating, or dendrochronology, is reviewed. Until the past decade, the applications of tree-ring dating to archaeological problems had not been thoroughly exploited.
