In this work, the structural framework of bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane has been utilized as a core building block in the synthesis of novel supramolecular architectures. The solid state of variously functionalized derivatives of this bicyclic compound has also been addressed from a supramolecular point of view. An improved methodology for the large scale preparation of bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,6-dione was d

Finally the article presents the mechanisms of shrink
How can qualitative, ethnographic and emotional aspects from probe users be mapped at the same time as they get something meaningful in return?
