The selectivity for less reactive amines over competing alcohols was achieved using TCFH and catalytic Oxyma as a highly reactive, inexpensive, and safe reagent combination. By temporarily masking more reactive amines as imines through the use of electron-deficient aldehydes, the hindered amines could be similarly coupled with high efficiency and selectivity.

Reliable population-based data is critical to understand the magnitude and nature of the problem, and inform evidence-based prevention.
Objective: To determine the prevalence of nonconsensual sharing of sexual images of the child by any perpetrator, and of online sexual solicitation by any adult perpetrator; and to determine the characteristics of these experiences.
