A Scalable Synthesis of Chiral Himbert Diene Ligands for Asymmetric Catalysis (2023)
Journal Article

Chiral dienes are important ligands in asymmetric catalysis but they are less accessible than other commonly used ligands such as chiral bisphosphines. Here, we show that intramolecular [4 + 2] cycloaddition of a simply attained chiral allenecarboxan... Read More about A Scalable Synthesis of Chiral Himbert Diene Ligands for Asymmetric Catalysis.

“We Just Don’t Know Where They Are”: The Geographical Distribution of Exercise Classes for Older People, Including Those Living with Dementia in the East Midlands (2023)
Journal Article

Older people living with dementia are advised to exercise to remain independent. Although several exercise classes for older people take place across the UK, there is limited information about the geographical distribution of these classes. This stud...

Losses from cross-holdings in a duopoly with convex cost and strategic input price determination (2023)
Journal Article

It is well-known that positive output externality on the outside firms is the reason for unprofitable passive cross-holding, which refers to a situation where a producer holds non-controlling shares in rival firms. Considering a final goods market wi... Read More about Losses from cross-holdings in a duopoly with convex cost and strategic input price determination.
