Whereas indications of radical reactivity in bismuth compounds can be traced back to the
19th century, the preparation and characterization of both transient and persistent bismuth …

The pnictogen bond (PnB) is a noncovalent attraction between electrophilic pnictogen
atoms, originated from the anisotropic distribution of electron density on Pn in a molecular …

Written by internationally recognised leaders in the field, Metal Amide Chemistry is the
authoritative survey of this important class of compounds, the first since Lappert and Power's …

Bismuth chemistry has received much less attention in comparison with that of N, P, As, and
Sb, but the last years have revealed an increasing interest in the investigation of both the …

The uptake and release of small molecules continue to be challenging tasks of utmost
importance in synthetic chemistry. The combination of such small molecule activation with …

The review focuses on ALD precursors of selected elements such as alkaline earth (Mg, Ca,
Sr, Ba), group 4 metals, bismuth, silver, iridium, selenium, tellurium and antimony. These …

A series of diorgano (bismuth) chalcogenides,[Bi (di‐aryl) EPh], has been synthesised and
fully characterised (E= S, Se, Te). These molecular bismuth complexes have been exploited …

Cationization of Bi (NPh2) 3 has recently been reported to allow access to single-and
double-CH activation reactions, followed by selective transformation of Bi–C into C–X …

Geometric deformation in main group compounds can be used to elicit unique properties
including strong Lewis acidity. Here we report on a family of planar bismuth (III) complexes …

The controlled release of well‐defined radical species under mild conditions for subsequent
use in selective reactions is an important and challenging task in synthetic chemistry. We …
