As the world pledges to significantly cut carbon emissions, the demand for sustainable and
clean energy has now become more important than ever. This includes both production and …

This tutorial review showcases recent (2015–2021) work describing ligand construction as it
relates to the design of secondary coordination spheres (SCSs). Metalloenzymes, for …

Metal–ligand cooperativity (MLC) is an established strategy for developing effective
hydrogenation and dehydrogenation catalysts. Metal–metal cooperativity (MMC) in …

Transfer hydrogenation (TH) has historically been dominated by Meerwein–Ponndorf–
Verley (MPV) reactions. However, with growing interest in amine–boranes, not least …

We report the synthesis of the monomeric phosphaborene Ar* P═ B (TMP)(2)(Ar*= 2, 6-bis
(triisopropylphenyl)-3, 5-diisopropylphenyl) containing 2-coordinate phosphorus and boron …

Roles of the hydrogen atoms attached to the metal center of transition metal polyhydride
complexes, LnMHx (x≥ 3), are analyzed for about forty types of organic reactions catalyzed …

Ammonia borane NH3· BH3 is considered a promising material for hydrogen storage and
release, and is attracting increasing attention as a relatively inexpensive, atom economy …

The make-up of a secondary coordination environment can regulate substrate reactivity and
product selectivity at a metal-containing active site. As a development in this area, many …

In this Perspective we discuss the ability of transition metal complexes to activate and cleave
the Si–H and B–H bonds of hydrosilanes and hydroboranes (tri-and tetra-coordinated) in an …

The air tolerant precatalyst,[Rh (L)(NBD)] Cl ([1] Cl)[L= κ3-(i Pr2PCH2CH2) 2NH, NBD=
norbornadiene], mediates the selective synthesis of N-methylpolyaminoborane,(H2BNMeH) …
