Emotion regulation strategy use and forecasting in response to dynamic, multimodal stimuli.

Successful emotion regulation (ER) requires effective strategy selection. Research suggests that disengagement strategies (e.g.

Ni-Catalyzed Enantioselective Desymmetrization: Development of Divergent Acyl and Decarbonylative Cross-Coupling Reactions.

Ni-catalyzed asymmetric reductive cross-coupling reactions provide rapid and modular access to enantioenriched building blocks from simple electrophile precursors. Reductive coupling reactions that can diverge through a common organometallic intermediate to two distinct families of enantioenriched products are particularly versatile but underdeveloped. Here, we describe the development of a bis(oxazoline) ligand that enables the desymmetrization of -anhydrides.

Ni-Catalyzed Asymmetric Reductive Arylation of α-Substituted Imides.

α-Aryl imides are common structural motifs in bioactive molecules and proteolysis-targeting chimeras designed for targeted protein degradation. An asymmetric Ni-catalyzed reductive cross-coupling of imide electrophiles and (hetero)aryl halides has been developed to synthesize enantioenriched α-arylglutarimides from simple starting materials. Judicious selection of electrophile pairs allows for coupling of both electron-rich and electron-deficient (hetero)aryl halides in good yields and enantioselectivities.

Reductive samarium (electro)catalysis enabled by Sm-alkoxide protonolysis.

Samarium diiodide (SmI) is a privileged, single-electron reductant deployed in diverse synthetic settings. However, generalizable methods for catalytic turnover remain elusive because of the well-known challenge associated with cleaving strong Sm-O bonds. Prior efforts have focused on the use of highly reactive oxophiles to enable catalyst turnover.

Temporal memory for threatening events encoded in a haunted house.

Despite the salient experience of encoding threatening events, these memories are prone to distortions and often non-veridical from encoding to recall. Further, threat has been shown to preferentially disrupt the binding of event details and enhance goal-relevant information. While extensive work has characterised distinctive features of emotional memory, research has not fully explored the influence threat has on temporal memory, a process putatively supported by the binding of event details into a temporal context.
