    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Metal-Catalyzed Hydrofunctionalization Reactions of Haloalkynes

    No full text
    Metal-catalyzed hydrofunctionalization reactions of alkynes, i.e. the addition of E–H units (E = heteroatom or carbon) across the C≡C bond, are of key importance in modern synthetic chemistry. In recent years, haloalkynes have been successfully involved in these types of transformations, thus opening new atom-economical routes for the generation, among others, of haloalkenes, a pivotal class of compounds for cross-coupling processes. In particular, several catalytic systems able to promote the selective addition of C–H, O–H, N–H, S–H and X–H (X = halide) bonds to haloalkynes have been reported. This chemistry is comprehensively discussed in this Minireview article
