Coordinatively unsaturated metal organic frameworks for olefin separations
(University of St Andrews, 2013-06-26) - ThesisThe research presented in this thesis aims to assess the capacity of metal organic frameworks with open metal sites for the separation of olefin mixtures. Chapter 1 provides a background to the field, including industrial ... -
Coordinatively unsaturated ruthenium complexes as efficient alkyne-azide cycloaddition catalysts
(2012-01-23) - Journal articleThe performance of 16-electron ruthenium complexes with the general formula Cp*Ru(L)X (in which L = phosphine or N-heterocyclic carbene ligand; X = Cl or OCH2CF3) was explored in azide−alkyne cycloaddition reactions that ... -
COP 17 and accountants : where next?
(Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, 2011-11-01) - ReportThis paper introduces the 17th meeting of the signatories to the UN Framework Convention for Climate Change (UNFCCC), taking place in Durban, South Africa, in late 2011 (COP 17). The paper summarises the opinions of a panel ... -
Coping with Asad: Lebanese prime ministers’ strategies
(Centre for Syrian Studies, School of International Relations, University of St Andrews, 2015-03-24) - Journal article -
Coping with asthma : investigation and intervention using the self-regulation model
(University of St Andrews, 1995) - ThesisThe Self-Regulation Model (Leventhal, Nerenz & Steele, 1984) highlights the roles of patients' illness representations, coping, emotional reactions and appraisal of coping in the progression of chronic disease. This thesis ... -
Copper isotope evidence for large-scale sulphide fractionation during Earth’s differentiation
(2015-06-04) - Journal articleAbstract The differentiation of Earth into a metallic core and silicate mantle left its signature on the chemical and isotopic composition of the bulk silicate Earth (BSE). This is seen in the depletion of siderophile ... -
Copper(I)-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes : synthesis, characterisation and applications in synthesis and catalysis
(University of St Andrews, 2016) - ThesisThe work described herein focuses on the synthesis and characterisation of copper(I) complexes bearing N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands, their use in catalysis as well as organometallic synthesis and related reaction ... -
Copper-NHC complexes in catalysis
(2015-06-15) - Journal articleAlthough the chemistry of copper has a long history [1a-d], the relatively recent discovery of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) as transition-metal supporting ligands has permitted novel vistas to be explored in copper reactivity ... -
Coprime invariable generation and minimal-exponent groups
(2015-08) - Journal articleA finite group G is coprimely invariably generated if there exists a set of generators {g1,. .,gu} of G with the property that the orders |g1|,. .,|gu| are pairwise coprime and that for all x1,. .,xu∈G the set {g1x1,. ... -
Copulae on products of compact Riemannian manifolds
(2015-09) - Journal articleAbstract One standard way of considering a probability distribution on the unit n -cube, [0 , 1]n , due to Sklar (1959), is to decompose it into its marginal distributions and a copula, i.e. a probability distribution on ... -
Copy number variation screen identifies a rare de novo deletion at chromosome 15q13.1-13.3 in a child with language impairment
(2015-08-11) - Journal articleA significant proportion of children (up to 7% in the UK) present with pronounced language difficulties that cannot be explained by obvious causes like other neurological and medical conditions. A substantial genetic ... -

Coralline algae as a globally significant pool of marine dimethylated sulfur
(2015-11-11) - Journal articleMarine algae are key sources of the biogenic sulfur compound dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP), a vital component of the marine sulfur cycle. Autotrophic ecosystem engineers such as red coralline algae support highly ... -
Coralline algal structure is more sensitive to rate, rather than the magnitude, of ocean acidification
(2013-12) - Journal articleMarine pCO2 enrichment via ocean acidification (OA), upwelling and release from carbon capture and storage (CCS) facilities is projected to have devastating impacts on marine biomineralisers and the services they provide. ... -
Corals concentrate dissolved inorganic carbon to facilitate calcification
(2014-12-22) - Journal articleThe sources of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) used to produce scleractinian coral skeletons are not understood. Yet this knowledge is essential for understanding coral biomineralization and assessing the potential impacts ... -
Core disgust is attenuated by ingroup relations
(2016-03-08) - Journal article -
Corkscrew seals : grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) infanticide and cannibalism may indicate the cause of spiral lacerations in seals
(2016-06-02) - Journal articleLarge numbers of dead seals with characteristic spiral lesions have been washing ashore around the North Atlantic over the past two decades. Interactions with ship propellers and shark predation have been suggested as the ... -
Coronal density structure and its role in wave damping in loops
(2016-05-19) - Journal articleIt has long been established that gradients in the Alfvén speed, and in particular the plasma density, are an essential part of the damping of waves in the magnetically closed solar corona by mechanisms such as resonant ... -
Coronal heating and nanoflares : current sheet formation and heating
(2013-12) - Journal articleAims: Solar photospheric footpoint motions can produce strong, localised currents in the corona. A detailed understanding of the formation process and the resulting heating is important in modelling nanoflares, as a mechanism ...
