The most striking difference between the chemistries of the main-group and transition
elements is the ability of the latter to form stable complexes in which the oxidation states …

Comprehensive Inorganic Chemistry II, Nine Volume Set reviews and examines topics of
relevance to today's inorganic chemists. Covering more interdisciplinary and high impact …

The definition of the van der Waals crust as the spherical section between the atomic radius
and the van der Waals radius of an element is discussed and a survey of the application of …

This paper summarizes recent developments involving the preparation and reactivity of
molecular species stabilized by terphenyl ligands that feature new bonding environments …

Owing to its highly unsaturated nature, the CtC triple bond is one of the most fascinating
fragments in chemistry. Possessing characteristic two-coordinate sp-hybridized carbon …

The synthesis, structure, and properties of several new organogallium (I) compounds are
reported. The monovalent compounds GaAr*(Ar*= C6H3-2, 6-Trip2, Trip= C6H2-2, 4, 6-Pr i …

The area of boron–boron multiple bonding has fascinated many researchers over the years.
However, the apparent difficulty of this chemistry meant that for decades the number of …

The synthesis of R2AlAlR2 (R= CH (SiMe3) 2) by Uhl in 1988 marked a key development for
compounds with Group 13 metal–metal bonds because it was the first example of a stable …

One‐electron reductions of the tetraaryldiborane (4) compound Mes2‐BBMes (Ph)(1)(Mes=
