Why Pot

Pot economy and one-pot synthesis

The one-pot synthesis of a target molecule in the same reaction vessel is widely considered to be an efficient approach in synthetic organic chemistry. In this review, the characteristics and limitations of various one-pot syntheses of biologically active molecules are explained, primarily involving organocatalytic methods as key tactics. Besides catalysis, the pot-economy concepts presented he...

Classification with the pot-pot plot

We propose a procedure for supervised classification that is based on potential functions. The potential of a class is defined as a kernel density estimate multiplied by the class’s prior probability. The method transforms the data to a potential-potential (pot-pot) plot, where each data point is mapped to a vector of potentials. Separation of the classes, as well as classification of new data ...

6 The " Pot - in - Pot " System Enhances the Water Stress Tolerance Compared with Above - Ground Pot

Application of Ionic Liquids in Pot-in-Pot Reactions.

Pot-in-pot reactions are designed such that two reaction media (solvents, catalysts and reagents) are isolated from each other by a polymeric membrane similar to matryoshka dolls (Russian nesting dolls). The first reaction is allowed to progress to completion before triggering the second reaction in which all necessary solvents, reactants, or catalysts are placed except for the starting reagent...

Pot/Lid Illusion

A new everyday visual size illusion is presented-the Pot/Lid illusion. Observers choose an unduly large lid for a pot. We ask whether the optic slant of the pot brim would increase its apparent size or if vision underestimates the size of tilted lids.
