“…Most of crops are experiencing crop-raiding due to wild animals.We analysed GPS records and data collected during two years (February 2009 to February 2011) of chimpanzee habituation at Sebitoli using records of direct observations, vocalizations, and dungs. In addition, we obtained a topographical map that allowed us to digitalize the hydrographical system of Sebitoli. …”

Understanding Dioxygen Activation in the Fe(III)-Promoted Oxidative Dehydrogenation of Amines: A Computational Study by Ricardo D. Páez-López, Miguel Á. Gómez-Soto, Héctor F. Cortés-Hernández, Alejandro Solano-Peralta, Miguel Castro, Peter M. H. Kroneck, Martha E. Sosa-Torres

“…The DFT calculations show that (i) ³O₂ abstracts a hydrogen atom from the α-pyridine aliphatic C-H moiety, introducing a double bond regio-selectively at the C₇N₈ position, via the hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) mechanism, (ii) O₂ does not coordinate to the iron center to generate a high-valent Fe oxo species observed in enzymes and biomimetic complexes, and (iii) the experimental activation parameters (ΔH^≠ = 20.38 kcal mol⁻¹, ΔS^≠ = −0.018 kcal mol⁻¹ K⁻¹) fall within in the range of values reported for HAT reactions and align well with the computational results for the activated complex [Fe^IIL³_N8•]²⁺···³O₂.…”
