Abstract
Catalytic cascade transformations of simple starting materials into highly functionalized molecules bearing a stereochemically defined multisubstituted alkene, which are important in medicinal chemistry, natural product synthesis, and material science, are in high demand for organic synthesis. The development of multiple reaction pathways accurately controlled by catalysts derived from different ligands is a critical goal in the field of catalysis. Here we report a cobalt-catalyzed strategy for the direct coupling of inexpensive 1,3-enynes with two molecules of acrylates to construct a high diversity of functionalized 1,3-dienes containing a trisubstituted or tetrasubstituted olefin. Such cascade reactions can proceed through three different pathways initiated by oxidative cyclization to achieve multiple bond formation in high chemo-, regio- and stereoselectivity precisely controlled by ligands, providing a platform for the development of tandem carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions.

Photoredox cobalt-catalyzed regio-, diastereo- and enantioselective propargylation of aldehydes via propargyl radicals. Nat Commun 2023; 14:4825.

Abstract
Catalytic enantioselective introduction of a propargyl group constitutes one of the most important carbon-carbon forming reactions, as it is versatile to be transformed into diverse functional groups and frequently used in the synthesis of natural products and biologically active molecules. Stereoconvergent transformations of racemic propargyl precursors to a single enantiomer of products via propargyl radicals represent a powerful strategy and provide new reactivity. However, only few Cu- or Ni-catalyzed protocols have been developed with limited reaction modes. Herein, a photoredox/cobalt-catalyzed regio-, diastereo- and enantioselective propargyl addition to aldehydes via propargyl radicals is presented, enabling construction of a broad scope of homopropargyl alcohols that are otherwise difficult to access in high efficiency and stereoselectivity from racemic propargyl carbonates. Mechanistic studies and DFT calculations provided evidence for the involvement of propargyl radicals, the origin of the stereoconvergent process and the stereochemical models.

Abstract
Catalytic enantioselective coupling of 1,1-disubstituted allenes and aldehydes through regiodivergent oxidative cyclization followed by stereoselective protonation or reductive elimination promoted by chiral phosphine-Co complexes is presented. Such processes represent unprecedented and unique reaction pathways for Co catalysis that enable catalytic enantioselective generation of metallacycles with divergent regioselectivity accurately controlled by chiral ligands, affording a wide range of allylic alcohols and homoallylic alcohols that are otherwise difficult to access without the need of pre-formation of stoichiometric amounts of alkenyl- and allyl-metal reagents in up to 92 % yield, >98 : 2 regioselectivity, >98 : 2 dr and >99.5 : 0.5 er.

Abstract
Catalytic enantioselective functionalization of cyclobutenes constitutes a general and modular strategy for construction of enantioenriched complex cyclobutanes bearing multiple stereogenic centers, as chiral four-membered rings are common motifs in biologically active molecules and versatile intermediates in organic synthesis. However, enantioselective synthesis of cyclobutanes through such a strategy remained significantly limited. Herein, we report a series of unprecedented cobalt-catalyzed carbon-carbon bond forming reactions of cyclobutenes that are initiated through enantioselective carbometalation. The protocols feature diastereo- and enantioselective introduction of allyl, alkynyl, and functionalized alkyl groups. Mechanistic studies indicated an unusual 1,3-cobalt migration and subsequent β-carbon elimination cascade process occurred in the allyl addition. These new discoveries established a new elementary process for cobalt catalysis and an extension of diversity of nucleophiles for enantioselective transformations of cyclobutenes.

Abstract
Catalytic generation of ambiphilic π-allyl-metal complexes and their utility in enantioselective transformations constitutes a powerful approach for introduction of allyl groups to a molecule. Herein an unprecedented cobalt-catalyzed highly site-, diastereo-, and enantioselective protocol for stereoselective formation of nucleophilic allyl-Co(II) complexes followed by addition to aldehydes is presented. The reaction features diastereo- and enantioconvergent conversion of easily accessible allylic alcohol derivatives to diversified enantioenriched homoallylic alcohols with a remarkably broad scope of allyl groups that can be introduced. Mechanistic studies indicated that allyl radical intermediates were involved in this process. These new discoveries establish a new strategy for development of enantioselective transformations through capture of radicals by chiral Co complexes, pushing forward the frontier of Co complexes for enantioselective catalysis.

Short communication: Preweaning socialization and environmental enrichment affect short-term performance after regrouping in commercially reared pigs. Animal 2020; 15:100115.

Abstract
On-farm practices like premature weaning and frequent regrouping induce stress to pigs. Early socialization or environmental enrichment in piglets reduce weaning stress, as suggested in previous studies. Little research with both effects and in commercial settings was found. The aim was to investigate the effects of preweaning socialization and environmental enrichment on life-long performance in 661 Danbred pigs. Two treatments were distinguished during the suckling period: control (CON, 24 litters) and enriched (ENR, 24 litters). Control piglets were raised in barren farrowing pens; ENR piglets were provided with six enrichment objects from birth, and two neighboring litters were socialized from Day (D) 14. Pigs were regrouped on D25 (weaning) and D71 (fattening), while keeping the same treatment. Individual body weight was recorded on D1, 14, 23, 27, 31, 38, 69, 79, and after slaughter (carcass weight, CW). Pigs were slaughtered in six batches. Estimated slaughter weight (ESW) was calculated by CW × 1.25. Body weight, CW, and average daily gain (ADG) were analyzed by linear mixed models. Slaughter age was analyzed by Wilcox Rank-Sum test. Body weight and ESW were adjusted to non-linear models to obtain the predicted growth curves of CON and ENR, from birth to the targeted market weight (TMW, 105 kg). Average daily gain during the suckling, nursery, and fattening periods, and from birth to slaughter, did not differ between treatments. However, ADG of ENR when moving pigs from farrowing to nursery (4-day period) and from nursery to fattening (10-day period), revealed a better performance than CON (+20.6 g/day, P = 0.02; +53 g/day, P = 0.03, respectively). Enriched pigs tended to be slaughtered 2.8 days earlier than CON (P = 0.08). On the other hand, the predicted growth curves showed a non-significant 2-day window of reaching TMW between treatments (P = 0.23). Results suggested that enriching the neonatal environment improved the short-term performance after regrouping, and may benefit the life-long performance by reducing time to reach TMW.

Abstract
Dehong humped cattle (DHH) is an indigenous zebu breed from southwestern China that possesses characteristics of heat tolerance and strong disease resistance and adapts well to the local tropical and subtropical climatic conditions. However, information on selection signatures of DHH is scarce. Herein, we compared the genomes of DHH and each of Diqing and Zhaotong cattle breeds using the population differentiation index (FST ), cross-population extended haplotype homozygosity (XP-EHH) and cross-population composite likelihood ratio (XP-CLR) methods to explore the genomic signatures of heat tolerance and disease resistance in DHH. Several pathways and genes carried selection signatures, including thermal sweating (calcium signaling pathway), heat shock (HSF1) and oxidative stress response (PLCB1, PLCB4), coat color (RAB31), feed intake (ATP8A1, SHC3) and reproduction (TP63, MAP3K13, PTPN4, PPP3CC, ADAMTSL1, SS18L1, OSBPL2, TOX, RREB1, GRK2). These identified pathways and genes may contribute to heat tolerance in DHH. Simultaneously, we also identified LIPH, TP63 and CBFA2T3 genes under positive selection that were associated with immunity.

Abstract
1,1'-Spirobiindane has been one type of privileged skeleton for chiral ligand design, and 1,1'-spirobiindane-based chiral ligands have demonstrated outstanding performance in various asymmetric catalysis. However, the access to enantiopure spirobiindane is quite tedious, which obstructs its practical application. In the present article, a facile enantioselective synthesis of cyclohexyl-fused chiral spirobiindanes has been accomplished, in high yields and excellent stereoselectivities (up to >99% ee), via a sequence of Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of α,α'-bis(arylidene)ketones and TiCl4 promoted asymmetric spiroannulation of the hydrogenated chiral ketones. The protocol can be performed in one pot and is readily scalable, and has been utilized in a 25 g scale asymmetric synthesis of cyclohexyl-fused spirobiindanediol (1 S,2 S,2' S)-5, in >99% ee and 67% overall yield for four steps without chromatographic purification. Facile derivations of (1 S,2 S,2' S)-5 provided straightforward access to chiral monodentate phosphoramidites 6a-c and a tridentate phosphorus-amidopyridine 11, which were evaluated as chiral ligands in several benchmark enantioselective reactions (hydrogenation, hydroacylation, and [2 + 2] reaction) catalyzed by transition metal (Rh, Au, or Ir). Preliminary results from comparative studies showcased the excellent catalytic performances of these ligands, with a competency essentially equal to the corresponding well-established privileged ligands bearing a regular spirobiindane backbone. X-ray crystallography revealed a close resemblance between the structures of the precatalysts 20 and 21 and their analogues, which ultimately help to rationalize the almost identical stereochemical outcomes of reactions catalyzed by metal complexes of spirobiindane-derived ligands with or without a fused cyclohexyl ring on the backbone. This work is expected to stimulate further applications of this type of readily accessible skeletons in development of chiral ligands and functional molecules.

Abstract
Catalytic enantioselective Cu-B(pin) (pin = pinacolato) addition to N-heteroaryl-substituted alkenes followed by protonation promoted by phosphine-Cu complexes is presented. The resulting alkylboron products that contain a N-heteroaryl moiety are afforded in up to 97% yield and 99:1 enantiomeric ratio. The highly versatile C-B(pin) bond can be converted to a range of useful functional groups, delivering a variety of enantiomerically enriched building blocks that are otherwise difficult to access. The utility of this method is further demonstrated by application to a fragment synthesis of biologically active molecule U-75302. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed that the adjacent N atom of the heterocycles plays a unique role in high reactivity and enantioselectivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) recipients are at high risk of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). We investigated the incidence and risk factors of IPD in alloHSCT recipients from 4 regional transplant centers over an 11-year period. This study aimed to inform future improvements in post-transplant care. METHODS We conducted a retrospective nested 1:2 case-control study in patients aged ≥18 years who underwent alloHSCT between 2001 and 2011 in 4 major allogeneic transplant centers. Controls were matched with IPD cases on the basis of conditioning intensity and donor relationship (related or unrelated). Demographics and clinical characteristics of cases and controls were summarized. Univariate analysis of risk factors in matched case-control sets, and multivariate conditional logistic regression to control for confounding, were performed. RESULTS In 23 alloHSCT recipients, 26 IPD episodes were identified. The cumulative incidence over 11 years was 2.3% (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.45-3.15) and the incidence density 956 per 100,000 transplant years of follow-up (95% CI 580-1321). Multivariate risk factor analysis and backwards elimination showed a significant positive association between mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), hyposplenism/asplenia, and IPD, whereas trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP/SMX) prophylaxis for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) was associated with lower odds of IPD cases. Of alloHSCT recipients with IPD, 38.5% required intensive care, and, of deaths documented in cases over the period of review, 30% were attributable to IPD. Serotypes causing IPD matched currently available vaccines in 15/22 (68.1%) episodes. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of IPD in alloHSCT recipients is an important cause of morbidity and mortality, with rates of disease being many fold higher than the general population. Patients with evidence of hyposplenism/asplenia define a high-risk group in the alloHSCT population for IPD, and the independent association with IPD and MMF in the adjusted model from this study requires further evaluation. The occurrence of post-transplant IPD may be reduced by measures such as vaccination with both 13-valent and 23-valent pneumococcal vaccines. TMP/SMX prophylaxis for the prevention of PJP may offer incidental protection against IPD in alloHSCT recipients.
