2. BACKGROUND Metallacycles of the transition metals were well-known and extensively
studied in the 1970s and 1980s8, 13, 14 and have been reviewed recently. 15, 16 …

Selective production of linear α-olefins is of significant commercial interest. Recently
discovered catalytic systems based on titanium, tantalum, and chromium show remarkable …

In this (tutorial overview) perspective we highlight the use of “redox non-innocent” ligands in
catalysis. Two main types of reactivity in which the redox non-innocent ligand is involved can …

Homogeneous olefin oligomerization plays a pivotal role in the field of petrochemistry.
Through catalyst, technology, and process developments, market requirements in terms of …

With greater market demand, interest in the selective production of linear α-olefins has been
increasing. This review discusses the principles underlying the evolution of the ligand …

A highly efficient and selective process has been developed for the conversion of 1-hexene
to jet and diesel fuels. In combination with commercial processes for the dehydration of …

The transformation of ethylene and alkenes is of high importance for the chemical industry.
In this review, we focus on selective alkenes transformation where metallacyclopentane is …

The reactivity of digallane (dpp-Bian) Ga–Ga (dpp-Bian)(1), which consists of redox-active
ligand 1, 2-bis [(2, 6-diisopropylphenyl) imino] acenaphthene (dpp-Bian), has been studied …

In this work, the effects of the hemilabile methoxy group in Cr-based catalysts bearing
(C6H5) 2–P (CH2) 2P–(C6H5) 2 (PCCP) and (o-MeOC6H4)(C6H5)–P (CH2) 2P–(C6H5)(o …

New Ti complexes bearing phenoxy− imine ligands with pendant aryl− OMe donors have
been developed for ethylene trimerization to produce 1-hexene. These Ti complexes …
