Abstract:
Not a poison! In contrast to the high reactivity of 1, the corresponding trihydride [ReH3 (PMe3 )4 ] is kinetically inert. Thus, the usual view that sulfur poisons catalysts is clearly inappropriate in this case. The catalytic properties of 1 result from its difunctional nature with both protic (SH) and hydridic (ReH) sites; these sites communicate by an intramolecular exchange process (see scheme; X=OMe, SH).

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
Definition
An electrocardiogram (ECG) visualizes the heart's electrical activity by tracing the electrical movement associated with each heartbeat on a graph or monitor. As the heart beats, an electrical wave passes through it, correlating with the cardiac cycle events.
