The chemistry of the p-block elements is a huge playground for fundamental and applied
work. With their bonding from electron deficient to hypercoordinate and formally hypervalent …

Bismuth is one of the most thoroughly investigated main group elements, which has been
regarded as 'the wonder metal'because of its diverse oxidation states and profound …

Although high-voltage-stable halide solid electrolytes (SEs) have emerged, only a few Na+
halide SEs have been developed thus far. Moreover, the use of expensive elements reduces …

Ionic liquids with chlorometallate anions may not have been the first ionic liquids, however, it
was their development that lead to the recognition that ionic liquids are a distinct, and useful …

Ionic liquids are credited with a number of unusual properties. These include a low vapor
pressure, a wide liquid‐phase range, weakly coordinating properties, and a high …

Until very recently, the term Lewis acidic ionic liquids (ILs) was nearly synonymous with
halometallate ILs, with a strong focus on chloroaluminate (III) systems. The first part of this …

Ionic liquids (ILs) have made a great impact on materials science and are being explored for
potential applications in several disciplines. In this article, we briefly highlight the current …

Ionic liquids (ILs) are new, innovative ionic solvents with rich physicochemical properties
and intriguing pre‐organized solvent structures; these materials offer great potential to …

Miniaturizing metallic materials from the nanoscale to the atomic scale transforms the
structures and physical properties. Among these sub-nanoscale materials, some catalysts …

The controlled release of well‐defined radical species under mild conditions for subsequent
