Abstract The isomeric complexes [Fe (1-bpp) 2] 2+ and [Fe (3-bpp) 2] 2+(1-bpp= 2, 6-di
[pyrazol-1-yl] pyridine; 3-bpp= 2, 6-di [1H-pyrazol-3-yl] pyridine) and their derivatives are …

Pincer‐based catalysts possess an exceptional balance of stability versus reactivity, aspects
of fundamental interest in catalyst design. This balance has been well‐controlled by …

Metal–ligand bifunctional cooperation has attracted much attention because it offers a
powerful methodology to realize a number of highly efficient and selective catalysts. In this …

Active transition–metal complexes based on relatively inexpensive metals are considered to
be a desirable method for sustainable human industrial growth. Considering their cost …

N–N bond cleavage of hydrazines on transition metals is of considerable importance in
understanding the mechanism of biological nitrogen fixation under ambient conditions. We …

Incorporation of two 9-borabicyclo [3.3. 1] nonyl substituents within the secondary
coordination sphere of a pincer-based Fe (II) complex provides Lewis acidic sites capable of …

Remarkable differences in selectivity and activity for ruthenium-catalyzed transfer
hydrogenation are described that are imparted by pendent OH groups. Kinetic experiments …

Developments in the chemistry of 2, 6-di (pyrazol-1-yl) pyridine (1-bpp) and 2, 6-di (pyrazol-
3-yl) pyridine (3-bpp), their derivatives and their complexes are surveyed, with emphasis on …

This review is aimed at updating the recent development on the metal complexes bearing
azolate‐containing chelates that have received a growing attention from both the industrial …

Three unsymmetrical NNN ligands with a 2-hydroxypyridyl fragment were used to react with
RuHCl (PPh3) 3 (CO), affording the three bidentate ruthenium hydride complexes [(R1 …
