TL;DR: In this article, a review of Schiff base-derived homogeneous and heterogeneous palladium catalysts for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions is presented, which provides insights into the state-of-the-art in applications of these Schiff base derived Pd catalysts.

TL;DR: A detailed kinetic study of the reaction of dopamine, 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethylamine, with dioxygen over the pH range 7-9 where it reacts spontaneously without the necessity of metal ion catalysis was carried out in this paper.
Abstract: A detailed kinetic study has been carried out of the reaction of dopamine, 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethylamine, with dioxygen over the pH range 7–9 where it reacts spontaneously without the necessity of metal ion catalysis. The reaction was found to be accurately first-order in [O2] and in [dopamine] and first-order in [H+]–1 and, furthermore, stoichiometric amounts of H2O2 were shown to be produced. The other product of oxidation is, initially, the pink dopaminochrome which, however, is not stable and reacts further (without the consumption of dioxygen) to form the insoluble polymeric material known as ‘melanine’. The rate-determining step is assumed to be hydrogen atom abstraction from the monodeprotonated species by O2(as with many other catecholamines, dopamine is stable towards oxidation in acidic media in the complete absence of metal ions) with a second-order rate constant of k1= 0.47 ± 0.05 dm3 mol–1 s–1 at 25 °C in a solution of ionic strength 0.1 mol–1 dm–3(KCl).

TL;DR: Improved hydrogen bond donor (HBD) strength parameters of 1-butyl-3methylimidazolium room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), acceptor number (AN) of Gutmann and α of Kamlet-Taft, have been determined using [Fe(phen)2(CN)2]ClO4 as an original solvatochromic probe as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: Improved hydrogen bond donor (HBD) strength parameters of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), acceptor number (AN) of Gutmann and α of Kamlet–Taft, have been determined using [Fe(phen)2(CN)2]ClO4 as an original solvatochromic probe. Each of the parameters shows an excellent correlation with the independently determined HBA strength β (Kamlet–Taft) of the anion which demonstrates that empirical polarity parameters of RTILs can be utilized independently of each other.

TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Abstract: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one. I remember first hearing about it at school. It seemed an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.
Usually familiarity dulls this sense of the bizarre, but in the case of i it was the reverse: over the years the sense of its surreal nature intensified. It seemed that it was impossible to write mathematics that described the real world in …
