title: Alkynyl and poly-ynyl derivatives of carbon-tricobalt clusters

authors: Antonova, Alla B.

subjects: carbon-tricobalt cluster

abstract: A series of alkynyl-tricobalt carbonyl clusters, Co₃(μ₃-CnR)(μ-dppm)(CO)₇ [R = But, Ph, C₆H₄I, C₆H₄C≡CPh, SiMe₃, Fc, Au(PPh₃)] containing three, five or seven carbons in the chain, have been prepared by elimination of phosphine–gold(I) halides in reactions between Co₃(μ₃-CBr)(μ-dppm)(CO)₇ and Au(C≡CR)(PPh₃) or between Co₃{μ₃-CC≡CAu(PR₃)} (μ-dppm)(CO)₇ (R = Ph, tol) and IC≡CR′ (R′ = SiMe₃, Fc). The use of poly-substituted arenes or ferrocenes has enabled preparation of the complexes 1,4-{(OC)₇(μ-dppm)Co₃ (μ₃-CC≡C)}₂C₆H₃X-5 (X = H, Br), 1,3,5-{(OC)₇(μ-dppm)Co₃(μ₃-CC≡C)}₃C₆H₃ and 1,1′-{(OC)₇(μ-dppm)Co₃ (μ₃-CC≡C)}₂Fc′ [Fc′ = Fe(η-C₅H₄-)₂]. The X-ray determined molecular structures of 12 of the complexes are reported.

title: Pattern and process of vegetation change (succession) in recent volcanic landscapes of New Zealand and Hawaii

authors: Clarkson, Bruce D.

subjects: volcanic landscapes

abstract: Volcanic activity (including lava flows, debris flows and tephra eruptions) is a regular feature of many landscapes of the North Island of New Zealand and the Hawaiian archipelago. Over the last 35 years, we have been using a combination of the chronosequence and direct monitoring methodologies (Clarkson 1998; Walker et al. 2010) to research the pattern and process of vegetation change (succession) in these landscapes. The following account summarizes pattern and process from our main study sites: Whakaari (White Island), Rangitoto Island, Mt Tarawera, Mt Ngauruhoe, Mt Ruapehu, and Mt Taranaki in New Zealand and Mauna Loa in Hawaii. The main focus of this account is forest development following significant eruptions.
