The rapid development of drug nanocarriers has benefited from the surface hydrophilic
polymers of particles, which has improved the pharmacokinetics of the drugs. Polyethylene …

It is now well established that the relativistic effects strongly influence the properties of the
heavier elements, specially the heavier elements of d-and f-block and also the heavier main …

Large spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is an intrinsic property of the heavy elements that directly
affects the electronic structures of the compounds. In this work, we report the synthesis and …

We report the use of solution and solid-state 31P Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
spectroscopy combined with Density Functional Theory calculations to benchmark the …

The development of unconventional strategies for the activation of ammonia (NH3) and
water (H2O) is of capital importance for the advancement of sustainable chemical strategies …

Herein, we report a hydrodefluorination reaction of polyfluoroarenes catalyzed by
bismuthinidenes, Phebox-Bi (I) and OMe-Phebox-Bi (I). Mechanistic studies on the …

High-valent cerium complexes of alkyl and benzyl ligands are unprecedented due to the
incompatibility of the typically highly oxidizing Ce4+ ion and the reducing alkyl or benzyl …

Conspectus Magnetic resonance techniques represent a fundamental class of spectroscopic
methods used in physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine. Electron paramagnetic …

An extended theoretical benchmark set, NS372, for light main-group nuclear shieldings and
NMR shifts has been constructed based on high-level GIAO-CCSD (T)/pcSseg-3//CCSD …

Determining the nature and extent of covalency of early actinide chemical bonding is a
fundamentally important challenge. Recently, X-ray absorption, electron paramagnetic, and …
