Transition metal hydride complexes are usually amphoteric, not only acting as hydride
donors, but also as Brønsted–Lowry acids. A simple additive ligand acidity constant …

Acids and bases are ubiquitous. Sometimes, it is essential to know the accurate strength (pK
a values) of the acids/bases to work with, but sometimes just acidity/basicity order is enough …

We demonstrate Markovnikov hydroalkoxylation of unactivated alkenes using alcohols
through a triple catalysis consisting of photoredox, cobalt, and Brønsted acid catalysts under …

Homogeneous gold catalysis has received growing attention over the past few years,
enabling the replacement of consolidated organic reactions with more simple, selective, and …

Organocatalysis has become an invaluable tool for polymer synthesis, and its utility has
been demonstrated in ring-opening, anionic, zwitterionic, and group-transfer …

The pollution of aquatic systems with noxious organic and inorganic contaminants is a
challenging problem faced by most countries. Water bodies are contaminated with diverse …

Aerobic alcohol oxidations catalyzed by transition metal salts and aminoxyls are prominent
examples of cooperative catalysis. Cu/aminoxyl catalysts have been studied previously and …

Generation of hydrogen by reduction of two protons by two electrons can be catalysed by
molecular electrocatalysts. Determination of the thermodynamic driving force for elimination …

The equilibrium acidity scale (pKa scale) in acetonitrile has been supplemented by
numerous new compounds and new ΔpKa measurements. It now contains altogether 231 …

Acidities of different families of acids are examined in media of different physical and
chemical nature: water, acetonitrile (AN), 1, 2‐dichloroethane (DCE) and the gas phase, with …
