This review serves to document advances in the synthesis, versatile bonding, and reactivity
of molecular main group metal hydrides within Groups 1, 2, and 12–16. Particular attention …

This review highlights recent advances in the research of organoaluminum complexes in
catalysis. Many fundamental transformations can be carried out by aluminum catalysts, such …

Main group multiple bonds have proven their ability to act as transition metal mimics in the
last few decades. However, catalytic application of these species is still in its infancy. Herein …

The reductive functionalization of the CO unit of carbonates, carboxylic acids, esters, and
CO2, respectively has received great attention since its introduction. This method is often …

Organoboranes obtained from hydroboration reactions are one of the important classes of
compounds that could be used to provide valuable synthons for follow-up transformations …

The previously reported dimeric NHI aluminum dihydrides 1 a, b, as well as the bis (NHI)
aluminum dihydride salt 9+[OTs]−, the bis (NHI) boron dihydride salt 10+[OTs]−, and the …

The reactions of H2AlCl with [(dpp-Bian) Na (Et2O) n] and [(ArBIG-Bian) Na (THF)] produce
respective aluminum hydrides supported by radical-anionic 1, 2-bis (arylimino) …

This study describes the first use of a bis (phosphoranyl) methanido aluminum hydride,[ClC
(PPh2NMes) 2AlH2](2, Mes= Me3C6H2), for the catalytic hydroboration of CO2. Complex 2 …
