The resolution of a NMR structure of a poplar dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) coupled to kinetic analysis and GSSG-mediated oxidation treatments revealed that DHARs are highly specialized for dehydroascorbate reduction and adopt different redox states depending on the number of cysteine residues.

1,3-Enynamides underwent oxygenative coupling with carbon- and heteroatom nucleophiles with high remote selectivity. Kinetic analysis revealed a continuum mechanism between concerted SN2′′ and via a carbocation, depending on the nucleophiles used.

Four experiments were aimed at elucidating some aspects of the preference for facelike patterns in newborns. Experiment 1 showed a preference for a stimulus whose components were located in the correct arrangement for a human face. Experiment 2 showed a preference for stimuli that had optimal sensory properties for the newborn visual system. Experiment 3 showed that babies directed their attention to a facelike pattern even when it was presented simultaneously with a non-facelike stimulus with optimal sensory properties. Experiment 4 showed the preference for facelike patterns in the temporal hemifield but not in the nasal hemifield. It was concluded that newborns' preference for facelike patterns reflects the activity of a subcortical system which is sensitive to the structural properties of the stimulus.
