This review is a comprehensive survey of the last 10 years of research on ammonia–borane
and amine–borane dehydrogenation mediated by complex metal hydrides (CMHs), within …

Low-valent early transition metals are often intrinsically highly reactive as a result of their
strong propensity toward oxidation to more stable high-valent states. Harnessing these …

We describe the synthesis of a cobalt (I)–N2 complex (2) supported by a meridional bis-
phosphino-boryl (PBP) ligand. Complex 2 undergoes a clean reaction with 2 equiv of …

Catalytic reactions that enable the formation of new bonds to carbon centres play a
pervasive role in the state-of-the-art synthesis of organic molecules and macromolecules. In …

The elementary steps in proposed mechanisms for the hydrophosphination of alkenes or
alkynes catalyzed by metal complexes are examined carefully with respect to the various …

A detailed catalytic, stoichiometric, and mechanistic study on the dehydrocoupling of H3B·
NMe2H and dehydropolymerization of H3B· NMeH2 using the [Rh (Xantphos)]+ fragment is …

Mechanistic studies into the catalysed dehydrocoupling of amine–boranes and phosphine–
boranes have seen a rapid development over the last 5 years. The primary driver for this …

The readily available iron carbonyl complexes,[CpFe (CO) 2] 2 (1) and CpFe (CO) 2I (2)(Cp=
η-C5H5), were found to be efficient precatalysts for the dehydrocoupling/dehydrogenation of …

The first stable copper borohydride complex [(CAAC) CuBH4][CAAC= cyclic (alkyl)(amino)
carbene] bearing a single monodentate ligand was prepared by addition of NaBH4 or …

Catalytic reduction of carboxylic acids and derivatives all the way to their corresponding
methyl‐compounds is very rare and still challenging for homogeneous transition‐metal …
