	abstract = {<p>The activation of inactive Jacobsen{\textquoteright}s chiral salen Co(II) (salen = N,N{\textquoteright}-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine) compound is attained by dinuclear chiral salen Co(III)-OTf complex formation with yttrium triflate. The yttrium metal not only displays a promoting effect on electron transfer, but also assists in forming two stereocentres of a Lewis acid complex with Co(III)-OTf. We found that the binuclear Co-complex significantly enhanced reactivity and enantioselectivity in the hydrolytic kinetic resolution of terminal epoxides compared to its analogous monomer and kinetic data are also consistent with these results.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>We report simple and selective method for detection of vitamins B-1 and B-6 in brown and white rice samples using localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of sucrose capped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as a chemical sensor colorimetrically. Here, detection is based on the color change of AuNPs from pink to blue followed by a red shift of LSPR absorption band in UV-vis region with the addition of vitamins B-1 and B-6 into the NPs solution. A good linear range was observed in the range of 25-1000 ngmL(-1) with detection limit of 8 ngmL(-1) for B-1 and 50-1000 ngmL(-1) with detection limit of 15 ngmL(-1) for vitamins B-6. The employment of AuNPs for detection of B-1 and B-6 vitamins in rice food samples showed remarkable abilities in terms of the simplicity, low cost, stability, reproducibility and sensitivity.</p>},
