Hypocretin-1 receptors regulate the reinforcing and reward-enhancing effects of cocaine: pharmacological and behavioral genetics evidence. [PDF]
Considerable evidence suggests that transmission at hypocretin-1 (orexin-1) receptors (Hcrt-R1) plays an important role in the reinstatement of extinguished cocaine-seeking behaviors in rodents.

Acid Catalyzed Formation of C–C and C–S Bonds via Excited State Proton Transfer
The behavior of 2-naphthol and 7-bromo-2-naphthol as organic photoacids are exploited in organic synthesis for the preparation of benzyl sulfides (using a trichloroacetimidate derivative as the starting substrate) and polycyclic amines via acid catalyzed

Preparation of substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines by Pd(II)-catalyzed NH2-directed insertion of Michael acceptors into C-H bonds followed by NH2-conjugated additions [PDF]
3,3-Disubstituted tetrahydroisoquinolines are prepared in one step from Michael acceptors and 2-phenylethylamines under Pd catalysis and Ag2CO3 as an oxidant. Presumably, activation of an ortho C-H bond of the aromatic ring with Pd(II) is directed by the
