Cross-dehydrogenative coupling reactions between -ketoesters and electron-rich arenes, such as indoles, proceed with high regiochemical fidelity with a range of -ketoesters and indoles. The mechanism of the reaction between a prototypical ketoester, ethyl 2-oxocyclopentanonecarboxylate and N-methylindole, has been studied experimentally by monitoring the temporal course of the reaction by 1 ...

Picture Poetry, Mannerism, and Sign Relationships

This article explores some cognitive and aesthetic principles about picture poems. It regards language as a hierarchy of signs: the graphemic string signifies a phonological string, which signifies units of meaning, which signify referents in extralinguistic reality. Our linguistic competence urges us to reach the final referents as fast as possible. Poetic language draws attention to itself, t...

Cover Picture Story: Experiments with Modular State Spaces

The main analysis techniques for critical systems use state space exploration. However, one is often quickly limited by the so-called state space explosion problem, even if the systems models are relatively small. Several methods have been proposed to tackle this problem in order to get a manageable state space. One of these takes advantage of the modular structure of the model in order to buil...
