Analisis Adopsi Inovasi Teknologi Pertanian Berbasis Padi di Sumatera Selatan dalam Perspektif Komunikasi

Analysis of Adoption of Agricultural Technology Innovation Rice-based Farming in Sumatra inthe perspective of communications. Assessment Institute of Agricultural Technology (AIAT) South Sumatrahas produced innovative rice-based farming technology in various agroecosystem. However, adoption ratesare still relatively low. Evaluation of four assessments aimed to identify the factors that predominantly affectthe adoption of technological innovation based local-specific farming rice and to know the level of adoption.This activity is carried out in OKI, East OKU and Banyuasin regencies with 67 respondents interviewedin July-September 2007. The results of this assessment showed that the factors that influence the adoption oftechnological innovations such as the level of selective exposure of technology innovation, cosmopolite,triability, complexity of technology and agricultural extension intensity. The average adoption index for thepacket of rice cultivation technology was 50.32%. As many as 93.02% of respondents have positive perceptionsof the researcher-extension AIAT South Sumatra as the communicator in delivering information technology.Most respondents (80%) expressed a desire to obtain agricultural information generated AIAT South Sumatra.Key words: Adoption, innovation, rice, communication Balai Pengkajian Teknologi Pertanian (BPTP) Sumatera Selatan sudah menghasilkan inovasi teknologipertanian berbasis padi di berbagai agroekosistem.

Rh/DuanPhos-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of β‑Acetylamino Vinylsulfides: An Approach to Chiral β‑Acetylamino Sulfides

Rh/DuanPhos-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging β-acetylamino vinylsulfides has been developed, affording chiral β-acetylamino sulfides with high yields and excellent ee’s (up to 99% ee). This novel methodology provides an efficient and concise synthetic route to chiral β-acetylamino sulfides. The potential utility of this protocol in the synthesis of Apremilast has also been disclosed

Rhodium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of β‑Acetylamino Acrylosulfones: A Practical Approach to Chiral β‑Amido Sulfones

The efficient and highly enantioselective catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of β-acetylamino acrylosulfone has been achieved by employing Rhodium-TangPhos as catalyst. A series of β-amido sulfone products are obtained with excellent yields and good enantioselectivities

Rhodium-Catalyzed Enantioselective Hydrogenation of Oxime Acetates

Rh-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of oxime acetates was first reported, which afforded a new approach for chiral amine synthesis

Rhodium-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation of α,β-Unsaturated Carbonyl Compounds via Thiourea Hydrogen Bonding

The strategy of secondary interaction enables enantioselectivity for homogeneous hydrogenation. By introducing hydrogen bonding of substrates with thiourea from the ligand, α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, such as amides and esters, are hydrogenated with high enantiomeric excess. The substrate scope for this chemical transformation is broad with various substituents at the β-position. Control experiments revealed that each unit of the ligand ZhaoPhos is irreplaceable. No nonlinear effect was observed for this Rh/ZhaoPhos-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation

Direct Catalytic Asymmetric Reductive Amination of Simple Aromatic Ketones

A green method for chiral amine synthesis, the direct catalytic asymmetric reductive amination, was developed. Phenylhydrazide is an ideal nitrogen source for reductive amination. Molecular sieves play dual roles in this reaction. They help to remove H₂O to form imine, as well as promote an imine reduction. f-Binaphane minimizes the inhibition effect from amines and helps the coordination of sterically demanding imines to the iridium center, thus leading to a smooth reaction

Cascade Synthesis of Fenpiprane and Related Pharmaceuticals via Rhodium-Catalyzed Hydroaminomethylation

A novel rhodium catalytic system with Naphos as ligand was developed for an efficient hydroaminomethylation of 1,1-diphenylethene under relatively mild conditions. This will allow for an atom-economic and environmentally benign synthesis of fenpiprane and related pharmaceuticals

A Novel Triphosphoramidite Ligand for Highly Regioselective Linear Hydroformylation of Terminal and Internal Olefins

The first triphosphorus ligand has been designed and synthesized for highly regioselective linear hydroformylations. A very high <i><i>l</i></i>/<i><i>b</i></i> ratio (up to 471, 99.8% linear selectivity) was obtained in the linear hydroformylation of representative terminal and internal olefins. For the range of substrates tested, the regioselectivities achieved utilizing the novel triphosphoramidite ligand were much better than those of the bisphosphoramidite ligand and close to those of the tetraphosphoramidite ligand

Highly Efficient Synthesis of Chiral α‑CF₃ Amines via Rh-Catalyzed Asymmetric Hydrogenation

Highly enantioselective catalytic asymmetric hydrogenation of α-CF₃-enamides has been achieved by employing rhodium–DuanPhos as the catalyst, which provides a readily accessible method for the synthesis of chiral trifluoromethylated amines. The reaction has a broad substrate scope; both aryl- and alkyl-substituted α-CF₃-enamides worked smoothly and afford the corresponding chiral amines in high yields and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee)

Stereodivergent Synthesis of Enantioenriched 2‑Pyrrolidones via Diastereoselective Hydrogenation of α,β-Unsaturated γ‑Lactams

Synthesis of optically enriched racetam analogues was achieved via highly remote diastereocontrolled and enantiocontrolled Pd/C-catalyzed hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated γ-lactams. Various mono- and disubstituted 2-pyrrolidones were obtained in excellent yields and stereoselectivities, and a concise and large-scale synthesis of brivaracetam was developed from inexpensive l-2-aminobutyric acid. Surprisingly, stereodivergent hydrogenation was observed by modifying remote functionalized stereocenters and additives, which would provide alternative stereochemical options of chiral racetams synthesis
