Mechanisms of Regulation in Intraflagellar Transport.

Cilia are eukaryotic organelles essential for movement, signaling or sensing. Primary cilia act as antennae to sense a cell's environment and are involved in a wide range of signaling pathways essential for development. Motile cilia drive cell locomotion or liquid flow around the cell.

Anatomy of phobanes. diastereoselective synthesis of the three isomers of n-butylphobane and a comparison of their donor properties.

Three methods for the large scale (50-100 g) separation of the secondary phobanes 9-phosphabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (s-PhobPH) and 9-phosphabicyclo[4.

Pd(I) phosphine carbonyl and hydride complexes implicated in the palladium-catalyzed oxo process.

Reduction of compound "Pd(bcope)(OTf)2" [bcope = (c-C8H14-1,5)PCH2CH2P(c-C8H14-1,5); OTf = O3SCF3] with H2/CO yields a mixture of Pd(I) compounds [Pd2(bcope)2(CO)2](OTf)2 (1) and [Pd2(bcope)2(mu-CO)(mu-H)](OTf) (2), whereas reduction with H2 or Ph3SiH in the absence of CO leads to [Pd3(bcope)3(mu3-H)2](OTf)2 (3). Exposure of 3 to CO leads to 1 and 2. The structures of 1 and 3 have been determined by X-ray diffraction.

Autoionization of homogeneous nickel(II) diphosphane hydrogenation catalysts. An NMR study and crystal structures of [Ni(o-MeO-dppe)I2] and [Ni(o-MeO-dppe)I2](PF6)2.

The synthesis of a number of nickel(II) complexes containing the didentate phosphane ligand 1,2-bis(di(o-methoxyphenyl)phosphino)ethane (o-MeO-dppe) is reported. Two types of complexes have been synthesized, i.e.
