Development of remote C-H bond functionalization of redox-active alcohol derivatives and oxidative transformations under photoredox catalysis

The development of radical-based remote C(sp3)-H functionalizations of redox-active alcohol derivatives, oxidative cycloaddition and rearrangement transformations under visible light photocatalysis constitute the basis of this thesis. The first chapter des ...

Tosyloxybenziodoxolone: A Platform for Performing the Umpolung of Alkynes in One-Pot Transformations

Jérôme Waser, Julien Aymeric Borrel

Ethynylbenziodoxolones (EBXs) are commonly encountered reagents for the electrophilic alkynylation of nucleophiles. Herein, we report a one-pot, two-step process for EBX generation and their direct application in substrate functionalization. Our approach e ...

Comparing performance of discomfort glare metrics in high and low adaptation levels

Marilyne Andersen, Mandana Sarey Khanie, Jan Wienold, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek

Current discomfort glare prediction metrics usually account for at least one of the two categories of effects that induce discomfort glare – the saturation and contrast effects. Saturation-driven metrics (overall illuminance on the eye) are suited for brig ...

Benefiting From Bicubically Down-Sampled Images for Learning Real-World Image Super-Resolution

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Mohammad Saeed Rad, Claudiu-Cristian Musat, Hazim Kemal Ekenel, Seyedbehzad Bozorgtabar, Thomas Yu

Super-resolution (SR) has traditionally been based on pairs of high-resolution images (HR) and their low-resolution (LR) counterparts obtained artificially with bicubic downsampling. However, in real-world SR, there is a large variety of realistic image de ...

Ordinary varieties with trivial canonical bundle are not uniruled

Zsolt Patakfalvi, Maciej Emilian Zdanowicz

We prove that smooth, projective, K-trivial, weakly ordinary varieties over a perfect field of characteristic p>0 are not geometrically uniruled. We also show a singular version of our theorem, which is sharp in multiple aspects. Our work, together with La ...

Global Frobenius liftability I

Maciej Emilian Zdanowicz

We formulate a conjecture characterizing smooth projective varieties in positive characteristic whose Frobenius morphism can be lifted modulo p(2)-we expect that such varieties, after a finite stale cover, admit a toric fibration over an ordinary abelian v ...

Colloidal Synthesis of Cu-M-S (M = V, Cr, Mn) Nanocrystals by Tuning the Copper Precursor Reactivity

Raffaella Buonsanti, Seyedehbehnaz Varandili, Valeria Mantella, James Richard Pankhurst

New ternary and higher order inorganic materials are needed for a large variety of applications, yet their synthesis still represents a chemistry challenge. Herein, we focus on the synthesis of Cu-M-S nanocrystals (where M = V, Cr, Mn) via a wet-chemistry ...

Motility-Induced Microphase and Macrophase Separation in a Two-Dimensional Active Brownian Particle System

Pasquale Digregorio

As a result of nonequilibrium forces, purely repulsive self-propelled particles undergo macrophase separation between a dense and a dilute phase. We present a thorough study of the ordering kinetics of such motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) in activ ...
