Pendant amines play an invaluable role in chemical reactivity, especially for molecular
catalysts based on earth-abundant metals. As inspired by [FeFe]-hydrogenases, which …

BACKGROUND Since the work of Sabatier 100 year ago, chemists have turned almost
exclusively to metals to activate H2 by weakening or cleaving its central bond. This …

The articulation of the notion of “frustrated Lewis pairs”(FLPs) emerged from the discovery
that H2 can be reversibly activated by combinations of sterically encumbered main group …

[Co (bapbpy) Cl]+(bapbpy: 6, 6′-bis (2-aminopyridyl)-2, 2′-bipyridine) is a polypyridyl
cobalt (II) complex bearing both a redox-active bipyridine ligand and pendant proton relays …

Developing new, efficient catalysts that contain Earth-abundant metals and simple, robust
ligands for CO2 hydrogenation is important to create cost-effective processes of CO2 …

Generation of hydrogen by reduction of two protons by two electrons can be catalysed by
molecular electrocatalysts. Determination of the thermodynamic driving force for elimination …

We present a perspective on the computational determination of entropy and its effects and
consequences on heterogeneous catalysis. Special attention is paid to the role of …
