  2. Abstract 3‐Aminopiperidines are a valuable motif present in small molecule pharmaceuticals and bioactive natural products. Synthesis of these moieties via olefin diamination would be an attractive approach, however significant challenges remain with regards to both regioselectivity and exogenous nucleophile scope. Herein, we report a metal‐free olefin diamination via a “heterocyclic group transfer“ (HGT) reaction of I(III)N‐HVI reagents, giving rise to 3‐aminopiperidines with high selectivity. The HGT strategy leverages heteroarenes as oxidatively masked amine nucleophiles, giving rise to (hetero)arylonium salt products which are isolated via simple trituration and provide a versatile handle for downstream diversification. This represents only the second6‐endoselective I(III)‐mediated diamination reaction and mechanistic studies indicate ring opening of an intermediate aziridinium ion is responsible for the6‐endoselectivity.

  3. This paper presents a voltage control design algorithm for a three-phase voltage source converter (VSC) connected to a linear load using a passive LCL filter. The controller is based on an optimal regulator, combined with the integral of the voltage error, which is called LQI that achieves null tracking of the error. The main objective of this paper is to present an algorithm to design a voltage controller through frequency analysis of the singular values of the system, the weight of the states involved in the system, the movement of the closed poles and their respective step response to evaluate performance and robustness against load changes. The simulation results show a satisfactory operation of the voltage controller with fast recovery after a resistive load change

  4. This paper presents a formal methodology for the analysis and design for discrete time proportional-resonant classic (PR) controllers applied to a single-phase DC/AC converter using Sisotool/Matlab tool. This tool allowed integrating and visualizes the classical control theory requirements (overshoot, settling time, etc.) with the design of Proportional Resonant (PR) controllers. Simulations results demonstrate the effectiveness of the methodology presented for the design of PR controllers.
