Interjection (Racine)

Sophie Racine

The first [4+2]-annulation between aminocyclobutanes and aldehydes to access tetrahydropyranyl amines is reported. With phthalimido cyclobutane dicarboxylates and aromatic aldehydes, tetrahydropyrans were obtained in 53-92% yield and 3:117:1 dr using scandium triflate or iron trichloride as catalyst. The use of thymineor fluorouracilsubstituted cyclobutanes gave direct access to six-membered ri...

The Interjection ‘Aiyo’ in Taiwan Mandarin

There are two prominent approaches to interjections, one is based on semantic theory and the other is informed by sociolinguistics. This study focuses on the Taiwan Mandarin interjection aiyo and attempts to show how both these two approaches are workable when conducting research on interjections. The data used was collected from the Academia Sinica Balanced Corpus of Modern Chinese. We analyze...

We have adapted to RNA molecules the ligation-mediated polymerase chain reaction (LMPCR) procedure of genomic sequencing [Mueller, P. R. & Wold, B. (1989) Science 246, 780-786]. This new procedure, the reverse ligation-mediated PCR (RLPCR), is sufficiently sensitive to allow "in vivo" footprinting of minor RNA species. It is based on the ligation of an RNA linker of known sequence to every 5' e...
