Metal–ligand cooperation (MLC) has become an important concept in catalysis by transition
metal complexes both in synthetic and biological systems. MLC implies that both the metal …

Transition metal hydride complexes are usually amphoteric, not only acting as hydride
donors, but also as Brønsted–Lowry acids. A simple additive ligand acidity constant …

The preparation of chiral alcohols and amines by using iridium catalysis is reviewed. The
methods presented include the reduction of ketones or imines by using hydrogen …

Abstract Die Metall‐Ligand‐Kooperation (MLC) hat sich zu einem wichtigen Konzept in der
Übergangsmetallkatalyse in synthetischen und biologischen Systemen entwickelt. MLC …

A series of new iridium (III) complexes containing bidentate N‐heterocyclic carbenes (NHC)
functionalized with an alcohol or ether group (NHC OR, R= H, Me) were prepared. The …

There have been numerous efforts to incorporate dioxygen into chemical processes
because of its economic and environmental benefits. The conversion of dioxygen to water is …

The development of conceptually new bifunctional transition-metal-based catalysts for a
wide range of catalytic reactions is described. The bifunctional chiral molecular catalyst …

Reaction of 1-adamantyl azide with iron (I) diketiminate precursors gives metastable but
isolable imidoiron (III) complexes LFe NAd (L= bulky β-diketiminate ligand; Ad= 1 …

Relatively recent developments in metalloenzyme and organometallic chemistry have
targeted a growing link between these outwardly incongruous fields, giving birth to a merger …

The CO-displacement of [(μ-pdt) Fe2 (CO) 6] with (Ph2PCH2) 2N (n-Pr) in refluxing toluene
gave an unsymmetrical chelating complex [(μ-pdt){Fe (CO) 3}{Fe (CO)(κ2-Ph2PCH2N (n-Pr) …
