Abstract: For many years, universities around the world have been developing and enhancing the First Year Experience (FYE), with a view to improving retention, performance and student satisfaction. This feature practice report outlines a strategic initiative, launched in 2018 at Victoria University in Melbourne, Australia that aims to transform the experience of Victoria University’s first-year students on an unprecedented scale. This unique model reconceptualises the design, structure and delivery of first year units of study in order to deliver a program that deliberately focuses on students’ pedagogical, transition and work/life balance needs. This initiative required the disruption and redevelopment of all university systems to ensure students experience a supportive and seamless transition into, and journey through, their first year of study at university.

Abstract: [formula: see text] The bakers' yeast mediated reduction of 3-oxo-3-phenylpropanenitrile (1) proceeds at 4 degrees C to give exclusively (S)-3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropanenitrile (3) in 59% yield. This is in contrast to the corresponding reaction at room temperature which yields a mixture of reduction and alkylation products. This work demonstrates the use of low temperature to improve yeast selectivity.

Abstract: The hydrocyanation of a range of amino alkyne derivatives has been studied by using nickel-based catalyst systems. The phthalimido derivatives have been shown to give good yields of unsaturated cyano amine derivatives, and some of these have been converted into both saturated and unsaturated amino acids.

Abstract: The regioselectivity of hydrocyanation of a range of protected α- and β-hydroxyalkynes has been investigated and shown to be highly susceptible to steric effects. Some of the products from hydrocyanation of protected β-hydroxyalkynes have been converted into α-alkylidene γ- lactones.

Abstract: We have detected alpha-tocopheryl phosphate in biological tissues including liver and adipose tissue, as well as in a variety of foods, suggesting a ubiquitous presence in animal and plant tissue. Alpha-tocopheryl phosphate is a water-soluble molecule that is resistant to both acid and alkaline hydrolysis, making it undetectable using standard assays for vitamin E. A new method was therefore developed to allow the extraction of both alpha-tocopheryl phosphate and alpha-tocopherol from a single specimen. We used ESMS to detect endogenous alpha-tocopheryl phosphate in biological s les that also contained alpha-tocopherol. Due to the significance of these findings, further proof was required to unequivocally demonstrate the presence of endogenous alpha-tocopheryl phosphate in biological s les. Four independent methods of analysis were examined: HPLC, LCMS, LCMS/MS, and GCMS. Alpha-tocopherol phosphate was identified in all instances by comparison between standard alpha-tocopheryl phosphate and extracts of biological tissues. The results show that alpha-tocopheryl phosphate is a natural form of vitamin E. The discovery of endogenous alpha-tocopheryl phosphate has implications for the expanding knowledge of the roles of alpha-tocopherol in biological systems.

Abstract: The subtilisin Carlsberg catalysed transesterification of N-acetyl phenylalanine methyl ester (1), N-acetyl phenylalanine ethyl ester (2), N-trifluoroacetyl phenylalanine methyl ester (3) and N-trifluoroacetyl phenylalanine ethyl ester (4) was studied in supercritical carbon dioxide. The water content of the reaction affects the reactivity of the system for the transesterification of the methyl esters with ethanol the optimum concentration of water was determined to be about 0.74 M, while for the transesterification of the ethyl esters with methanol the optimum concentration of water was about 1.3 M. The conversion is also dependent upon the concentration of alcohol for ethanol, 2% v/v gives the maximum conversion, whilst for methanol, only 0.8-1.2% v/v is required. This is probably due to a difference in the solubility of the substrates in the two alcohol/supercritical carbon dioxide mixtures. The reaction is highly stereoselective, in all cases no evidence for reaction of the D-isomer could be detected by chiral gas chromatography.

Abstract: Beta-cyclodextrin (β-CD) inclusion complexes with naturally derived antimicrobial (AM) agents: thymol, carvacrol and linalool were prepared using a co-precipitation technique. Conditions including solvent composition, temperature, reaction time and total solvent volume were investigated to optimise the inclusion efficiency (IE) and yield. Electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry was used to confirm the formation of the thymol/β-CD complex and gas chromatography was used to quantify the amount AM agent that was encapsulated, absorbed onto the surface, or remaining in the filtered solvent. The systematic optimisation of the conditions improved both the yield of the complex and the IE of the AM agents compared to previously reported methods that have been applied to other agents. Using a 1:1 mole ratio of the AM agent to β-CD, the optimised parameters resulted in maximum yields of 87, 84 and 86% (w/w) for thymol, carvacrol and linalool, respectively, with IE's close to 100% (w/w) for each agent.

Abstract: The yeast-mediated acyloin condensation of benzaldehyde and pyruvic acid to form l-PAC occurs in a petroleum spirit solvent system at room temperature with moderate conversion (30%) and high enantioselectivity (86%ee) after 24 h. The addition of a small amount of ethanol (0.5% mL) to the reaction mixture inhibits the formation of the side product benzyl alcohol and increases the conversion to l-PAC. Conducting the reaction using 13C labeled pyruvate indicated that the pyruvate was incorporated into the l-PAC and that the excess pyruvate was converted into ethanol. Conducting the reaction at 5 degrees C results in similar conversion but higher enantioselectivity.

Abstract: We report what is believed to be the first use of a photorefractive polymer in erasable-rewritable three-dimensional bit optical data storage under two-photon excitation. We successfully demonstrate writing, erasing, and rewriting of multilayered information in a photorefractive polymer consisting of 2,5-dimethyl-4-(p-nitrophenylazo)anisole, 2,4,7-trinitro-9-fluorenone, 9-ethylcarbazole, and poly(N-vinylcarbazole). A three-dimensional bit density of 5 Gbits/cm(3) is achieved by two-photon absorption under pulsed beam illumination at an infrared wavelength of 800 nm in the recording process. Complete erasing of the recording information is achieved by use of ultraviolet illumination.

Abstract: The regioselectivity of hydrocyanation of a range of alkynols using nickel-based catalyst systems involving either triphenyl phosphite or α,α′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-o-xylene (phmep) has been investigated. The regioselectivity of the hydrocyanations involving the phosphine catalyst reflected dominant steric effects whereas results from the phosphite catalyst system showed some evidence for chelation control. Yields of nitriles from reactions based on the phosphite system were variable, whereas moderate to good yields of distilled products could be obtained consistently by using the phosphine -based system. An explanation for this variation in yield is proposed.
