Rhodium(II)-catalyzed stereocontrolled synthesis of dihydrofuran-3-imines from 1-Tosyl-1,2,3-triazoles
Rhodium(II) acetate catalyzes the denitrogenative transformation of 5-substituted and 4,5-disubstituted 1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles with pendent allyl and propargyl ether motifs to oxonium ylides that undergo [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement to give substituted dihydrofuran-3-imines in high yield and diastereoselectivity
Measurements of the Ratios and
Using the CLEO~II detector we measure , and .
We find the vector to pseudoscalar ratio, , which is similar to the
ratio found in non strange decays.Comment: 11 page uuencoded postscript file, postscript file also available

Precision Measurement of the Mass Difference
We have measured the vector-pseudoscalar mass splitting , significantly more precise than the previous
world average. We minimize the systematic errors by also measuring the
vector-pseudoscalar mass difference using the radiative
decay , obtaining
. This is
then combined with our previous high-precision measurement of
, which used the decay . We also
measure the mass difference MeV, using the
decay modes of the and mesons.Comment: 18 pages uuencoded compressed postscript (process with uudecode then

Search for Exclusive Charmless Hadronic B Decays
We have searched for two-body charmless hadronic decays of mesons. Final
states include , , and with both charged and neutral kaons

Measurement of the Inclusive Semi-electronic Branching Fraction
Using the angular correlation between the emitted in a decay and the emitted in the subsequent decay, we have measured the branching fraction for the
inclusive semi-electronic decay of the meson to be: {\cal B}(D^0
\rightarrow X e^+ \nu) = [6.64 \pm 0.18 (stat.) \pm 0.29 (syst.)] \%. The
result is based on 1.7 fb of collisions recorded by the CLEO II
detector located at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR). Combining the
analysis presented in this paper with previous CLEO results we find,
\frac{{\cal B} (D^0 \rightarrow X e^+ \nu)}
{{\cal B} (D^0 \rightarrow K^- \pi^+)}
= 1.684 \pm 0.056 (stat.) \pm 0.093(syst.) and
\frac{{\cal B}(D\rightarrow K^-e^+\nu)}
{{\cal B}(D\rightarrow Xe^+\nu)}
= 0.581 \pm 0.023 (stat.) \pm 0.028(syst.).
The difference between the inclusive rate and the sum of the measured
exclusive branching fractions (measured at CLEO and other experiments) is of the inclusive rate.Comment: Latex file, 33pages, 4 figures Submitted to PR

Semileptonic Branching Fraction of Charged and Neutral B Mesons
An examination of leptons in events tagged by reconstructed
decays yields semileptonic branching fractions of for charged and for neutral mesons.
This is the first measurement for charged . Assuming equality of the charged
and neutral semileptonic widths, the ratio is
equivalent to the ratio of lifetimes. A postscript version is available through

Observation of a New Charmed Strange Meson
Using the CLEO-II detector, we have obtained evidence for a new meson

establish its spin and parity, the new meson is consistent with predictions for
an , , charmed strange state.Comment: 9 pages uuencoded compressed postscript (process with uudecode then
