Reductive elimination from partially or completely oxidized metal centers is a vital step in a
myriad of carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bond‐forming reactions. One strategy for …

The preparation, structure, dynamic behavior in solution, and reactivity of polyhydride
complexes of platinum group metals, described during the last three decades, are …

Low-temperature deprotonation of the phenylborane dications, PhB (RIm) 3OTf2 (R= tBu,
Mes), followed by in situ reaction with CoCl2 (thf) 1.5, results in the formation of the four …

The protonation of a transition-metal hydride is a formally simple process between a proton
donor and a proton acceptor with several potential basic centres. The detailed mechanism is …

We report a palladium‐catalyzed method to synthesize acid chlorides by the
chlorocarbonylation of aryl bromides. Mechanistic studies suggest the combination of …

Thermolysis of the known cationic iridium complex [(PNP) Ir (C6H5) H] PF6 (PNP= 2, 6-bis-
(di-tert-butylphosphinomethyl) pyridine) in methanol results in reductive elimination of …

Die reduktive Eliminierung teils oder vollständig oxidierter Metallzentren ist ein wichtiger
Schritt in einer Unzahl von C‐C‐und C‐Heteroatom‐Bindungsbildungen. Eine Möglichkeit …

Platinum complexes have played an important role in our understanding the mechanisms of
arene and alkane CH activation and developing catalytic methods for hydrocarbon CH …

This paper shows that the redox equilibria hydride-alkenylcarbyne/alkenylcarbene and
alkenyl-alkenylcarbyne/dienylcarbene are readily governed by the electronic properties of …

Double protonolysis of diimine platinum dimethyls [(NN) PtMe2](NN= ArN C (Me) C (Me)
NAr) generates dicationic Pt (II) complexes that can activate a variety of C− H bonds …
