Exploring the pathways for photocatalytic dissolution of precious metals (PMs) is crucial for
optimizing recovery. In this work, we systematically investigated the selectivity and solvation …

Homoleptic cyanide compounds exist of almost all main group elements. While the alkali
metals and alkaline earth metals form cyanide salts, the cyanides of the lighter main group …

Noble gases (Ngs) are recognized as the least reactive elements due to their fully filled
valence electronic configuration. Their reluctance to engage in chemical bond formation …

Recently, two-dimensional (2D) metal halides have triggered an enormous interest for their
tunable mechanical, electronic, magnetic, and topological properties, greatly enriching the …

We report a family of systems having a planar pentacoordinate carbon (ppC) based on the
next heavier analogue of CAl5+, the ppC system par excellence. Although because of the …

This Review presents the current status of the noble gas (Ng)‐noble metal chemistry, which
began in 1977 with the detection of AuNe+ through mass spectroscopy and then grew from …

Noble gases (Ngs) are the least reactive elements in the periodic table towards chemical
bond formation when compared with other elements because of their completely filled …

MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ calculations have been performed on π-hole triel-and chalcogen-bonded
complexes involving a heteroaromatic compound. These complexes are very stable with …

The σ-aromaticity of M3+ (M= Cu, Ag, Au) is analyzed and compared with that of Li3+ and a
prototype σ-aromatic system, H3+. Ligands (L) like dimethyl imidazol-2-ylidene, pyridine …

The role of boron–ligand cooperation in activating molecular hydrogen by a set of six
frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) systems is explored using density functional theory. The results …
