Three-and four-membered rings, widespread motifs in nature and medicinal chemistry, have
fascinated chemists ever since their discovery. However, due to energetic considerations …

Significant progress has been made in the past 10–15 years on the design, synthesis, and
properties of multimetallic coordination complexes with heterometallic metal–metal bonds …

Transition metals can assemble to form multinuclear complexes by engaging in direct metal-
to-metal interactions. Metal–metal covalent bonds provide a large perturbation in electronic …

This tutorial explores the diversity and characteristics of C-donor ligands. Particular
emphasis is put on the conceptual design of the electronic properties for applications in …

Metal–ligand cooperativity has emerged as an important strategy to tune the reactivity of
transition-metal complexes for the catalysis and activation of small molecules. Studies of …

Activation of inert molecules like CO2 is often mediated by cooperative chemistry between
two reactive sites within a catalytic assembly, the most common form of which is Lewis …

Cluster complexes have attracted interest for decades due to their promise of drawing
analogies to metallic surfaces and metalloenzyme active sites, but only recently have …

We report the magnesiation of aryl fluorides catalyzed by an Al–Rh heterobimetallic
complex. We show that the complex is highly reactive to cleave the C–F bonds across the …

Herein we describe the synthesis of a family of aryl-Co (III)-carboxylate complexes and their
reactivity with ethyl diazoacetate. Crystallographic, full spectroscopic characterization, and …

The catalytic asymmetric cyclopropanation reaction of alkenes with diazo compounds is a
direct and powerful method to construct chiral cyclopropanes that are essential to drug …
