Efficient palladium–ferrocenylphosphine catalytic systems for allylic amination of monoterpene derivatives
2006
Ferrocenylphosphines added to [Pd(µ-Cl)(η3-C3H5)]2 dimeric precursor produce efficient catalysts to effect the allylic amination of terpenic allylacetates. Particularly convenient are tetrakis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene and 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene, which allow the amination of allylacetates with good to excellent selectivity, and have turnover numbers as high as 80 000, for instance, for the formation of allylaniline. Herein, we report on reactions that selectively transform geranylacetate, nerylacetate, linalylacetate and perillylacetate into the corresponding allylic amines. These preparative methods give facile access to various products of great potential industrial intere…

Rapid automatized naming in early literacy
2019
Esta comunicación se encuentra disponible en la siguiente URL: http://www.infad.eu/RevistaINFAD/OJS/index.php/IJODAEP/article/view/1465/1274 Este número está dedicado a la "Psicología de la Educación y Saberes Originarios". Although the relation between Rapid Automatized Naming (RAN) and Reading is clear, there is no a standardized test to measure the speed of naming in early literacy. The aim is to explore and confirm the factorial structure of the RAN test developed by Wolf and Denkla (2003) in children. RAN test was administred to 442 children aged 4-5 years. Results highlighted two factors: a “nonalphanumeric components” factor which includes “RAN colors” and “RAN images” and an “alphan…
Adopting magnetocaloric heat pumping and refrigeration for electrical vehicle
2017
International audience; Refrigeration process is based on conventional gas compression and expansion techniques. However, this technique has numerous disadvantages since it generates greenhouse gas and is partly responsible for global warming. This paper exposes analternative method: magnetocaloric refrigeration that presents the advantage to combine high-energy efficiency and respect of theenvironment. Magnetic heat pumping and cooling is compared to conventional method applied on vehicle air conditioning system.Simulation results are used to demonstrate the approach.

An Autonomic System for Estimating Human Presence through Bayesian Networks
2010
In the Ambient Intelligence (AmI) context, a relevant research topic is represented by the methods for determining users' presence in order to design context-aware systems capable of monitoring the environment in which they operate, and of timely reacting to changes. This work describes an autonomic software agent comprising a double-level reasoning. At the lower level, a Bayesian network merges the available sensory information related to the users' presence, whereas the upper level performs a meta-reasoning on the system performance and configuration in order to enable the system self-assessment. Experimental results show the validity of the proposed method on a sample scenario.
An AmI-Based Software Architecture Enabling Evolutionary Computation in Blended Commerce: The Shopping Plan Application
2015
This work describes an approach to synergistically exploit ambient intelligence technologies, mobile devices, and evolutionary computation in order to support blended commerce or ubiquitous commerce scenarios. The work proposes a software architecture consisting of three main components: linked data for e-commerce, cloud-based services, and mobile apps. The three components implement a scenario where a shopping mall is presented as an intelligent environment in which customers use NFC capabilities of their smartphones in order to handle e-coupons produced, suggested, and consumed by the abovesaid environment. The main function of the intelligent environment is to help customers define shopp…
The Intelligent e-Therapy system: a new paradigm for telepsychology and cybertherapy
2009
ABSTRACT One of the main drawbacks of computer-assisted psychology tools developed up to now is related to the real time customisation and adaptation of the content to each patient depending on his/her activity. In this paper we propose a new approach for mental e-health treatments named Intelligent e-Therapy (eIT) with capabilities for ambient intelligence and ubiquitous computing. From a technical point of view, an eIT system is based on four fundamental axes: ambient intelligence for capturing physiological, psychological and contextual information of the patient; persuasive computing for changing/reinforcing behaviours; ubiquitous computing for using the system at any place, and at any …
Amino-phosphanes in RhI-Catalyzed Hydroformylation: Hemilabile Behavior of P,N Ligands under High CO Pressure and Catalytic Properties
2005
International audience; The catalytic properties of rhodium complexes containing the α-, β-, or γ-amino-phosphane ligands Ph2PCH2NEt2 (α-P,N-1), Ph2PCH(Ar)NHPh [α-P,N-2; Ar = η6(o-C6H4Cl)Cr(CO)3], Ph2PCH2NPh2 (α-P,N-3), Ph2PCH2CH(Ph)NHPh (β-P,N), Ph2PCH2(o-C6H4–NMe2) (γ-P,N-1), Ph2PCH(o-C6H4–CH2NHPh) (γ-P,N-2), and the α,β-diamino-phosphane ligand Et2NCH2P(Ph)CH2CH(Ph)NHPh (α,β-N,P,N), in styrene hydroformylation have been examined. The results show that the activity increases when the number of backbone carbon atoms linking P and N decreases from 3 to 1. IR and 31P HPNMR studies in solution show that all P,N ligands adopt exclusively a κ1-P coordination mode in rhodium chloride carbonyl co…
