Among the myriad of organic transformations that have been developed in the area of gold catalysis, the addition of HX to alkynes has been a field of intense investigation. This chapter presents the main and recent contributions in the field of gold-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of HX to alkynes. The presentation includes the addition of O-nucleophiles (including water, alcohols and carboxylic acids), of N-nucleophiles and other heteroatom nucleophiles (including thiols and halogens) to alkynes. The historical background for inter- and intramolecular additions, the domino processes and the applications to natural products synthesis are highlighted.

Product Description:
Aging ex-quarterback Paul Blake (Scott Bakula) enrolls in college in order to fullfill his adolescent high school dream of playing college football. Unfortunately, his new team has been put on notice for violating NCAA rules, and all the veterans have been kicked out. Undaunted, Blake helps put together a team comprised of football-playing misfits and a female placekicker. In the midst of all this, he falls in love with one of the professors and must outwit the dean of the college, who is trying to cancel the football program.

Anyone here got much experience of using the 16-50 power zoom lens with a NEX-C3?
Jun 20, 2013
I'm considering getting the 16-50 lens for my C3. I'm aware of the distortion/vignetting problems which I am not too concerned about, because I always shoot raw and correct in Lightroom anyway.
My main concerns are if there are any other compatibility issues that I should be aware of. I have seen people complain about time delays between switching the camera off and the lens retracting on some older NEX models. I've also seen reports that the lens auto-retracts if you press image review. It then has to extend the lens again when you half-press the shutter.
To anyone out there who has used a C3 with a 16-50, how do you find the experience of the 2 parts operating together?
This question has not been answered yet.
