Imino‐Pyrrole Zn(II) Complexes for the Rapid and Selective Chemical Recycling of Commodity Polymers

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Three imino‐pyrrole zinc (II) catalysts were prepared and applied to the chemical recycling of PLA, PET, and BPA‐PC. Rapid PLA degradation was accomplished in solution and under solvent‐free conditions, the latter giving full conversion at relatively mild temperatures after 11 min.

Production Planning, Scheduling and SME

open access: yes, 2014
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) are the backbone of central Europe's economies and have a significant contribution to the gross domestic product. Production planning and scheduling (PPS) is still a crucial element in manufacturing industries of the 21st century even though this area of research is more than a century old.

A Bench‐Stable Fluorophosphine Nickel(0) Complex and Its Catalytic Application

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We herein present the synthesis of a bench‐stable Ni(0) complex, [Ni(PFPh2)4], stabilized by vastly underexplored fluorophosphine ligands. The application of [Ni(PFPh2)4] in Suzuki–Miyaura and Kumada‐Tamao‐Corriu cross‐coupling reactions as well as in Buchwald–Hartwig C─N bond formation reactions, indicates its promising potential as alternative to ...

Higher-order Lorentz violations in electrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Standard-Model Extension (SME) provides a theoretical framework for tests of Lorentz invariance. To date, most studies have focused on the minimal SME, which restricts attention to operators of renormalizable dimension. Here, we review recent studies involving the nonrenormalizable photon sector of the SME.
