Although recent years have witnessed significant advances in the development of catalytic,
enantioselective halofunctionalizations of alkenes, the related dihalogenation of olefins to …

Solvent engineering is an increasingly essential topic in the chemical sciences. In this
context, some recently appeared unconventional solvents have shown their large potential …

Square-planar NiII complexes and their electronically excited states play key roles in cross-
coupling catalysis and could offer new opportunities to complement well-known …

Efficient difunctionalization of alkenes allows the rapid construction of molecular complexity
from simple building blocks in organic synthesis. We present herein a nickel-catalyzed …

Alkylpalladium complexes are important intermediates in several industrially relevant
catalytic reactions, such as the Mizoroki–Heck reaction, alkyl C–H activation and ethylene …

To assess the relative electronic influence of highly substituted aryl isocyanides on transition
metal centers, a series of C 4 v-symmetric Cr (CNR)(CO) 5 complexes featuring various …

We describe a catalytic cascade sequence involving directed C (sp3)− H activation followed
by β‐heteroatom elimination to generate a PdII (π‐alkene) intermediate that then undergoes …

Complexes bearing electron rich transition metal centers, especially those displaying
coordinative unsaturation, are well-suited to form reverse-dative σ-interactions with Lewis …

To circumvent complications with redox-active ligands commonly encountered in the study
of manganese electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction, we have studied the electrochemistry of …

Mixed-metal solid-state framework materials are emerging candidates for advanced
applications in catalysis and chemical separations. Traditionally, the syntheses of mixed …
