A highly enantioselective (>95% ee) strategy to affect the desymmetrization of a maleimide has been performed by temporary attachment to an anthracene template followed by asymmetric reduction with an oxazaborolidine catalyst. A stereoablative over-reduction process was partially responsible for the high levels of enantioselectivity. Exemplification of the strategy by stereoselective functional...

Coventry University has made a strategic commitment to address the dimension of ‘race’ in its learning and teaching. Central this is establishment cross-institution curriculum change initiative called ‘Curriculum 2025’. The case study shared here details how we are approaching task some early reflections. Two things explained: first, provision resources for staff who want learn more about possi...

Selective exposure provides a useful lens for exploring how attention to competing information within exemplification theory (i.e., exemplars versus base-rate data) can impact viewing outcomes. Sports highlights reflect an ideal context examining this selectivity, as are often presented concomitantly alongside measures of performance. To examine experiment was conducted where viewers watched se...

Virtual simulations allow individuals to concretely view the future negative health consequences of present dietary choices. Integrating exemplification theory with risk communication research, the effect of using virtual simulations to exemplify the health risks of soft drink consumption was assessed across 3 weeks. A three-group pretest, posttest, and delayed posttest design (N = 62) compared...

By combining the linearization method with Dougall's sum for well– poised 5 F 4-series, we investigate the generalized Watson series with two extra integer parameters. Four analytical formulae are established, which can be used to evaluate also the extended Whipple and Dixon series via the Thomae transformation. Twelve concrete formulae are presented as exemplification.
