Hydrogen atom transfer from a metal hydride (MHAT) has emerged as a powerful, if
puzzling, technique in chemical synthesis. In catalytic MHAT reactions, earth-abundant …

The cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligand is a cornerstone of modern organometallic chemistry.
Since the discovery of ferrocene, the Cp ligand and its various derivatives have become …

The calculation of redox potentials by semiempirical quantum mechanical (SQM)
approaches is evaluated with a focus on the recently developed GFN n-xTB methods. The …

Terminal NiIII hydrides are proposed intermediates in proton reduction catalyzed by both
molecular electrocatalysts and metalloenzymes, but well-defined examples of paramagnetic …

The scission of a C (sp3)–H bond to form a new metal–alkyl bond is a fundamental step in
coordination chemistry and catalysis. However, the extent of C–H bond weakening when …

Using the doubly protic bis-pyrazole-pyridine ligand (N (NNH) 2), we have synthesized an
octahedral IrIII–H [HIr (κ3-N (NNH)(NN–))(CO)(t BuPy)]+([1-MH]+) from an IrI starting …

Understanding the thermodynamics of paramagnetic transition metal hydride complexes,
especially of the abundant 3 d metals, is important in the design of electrocatalysts and …

The reaction of the vanadium (III) tris (silylamide) V {N (SiMe3) 2} 3 with LiAlH4 in diethyl
ether gives the highly unstable mixed-metal polyhydride [V (μ2-H) 6 [Al {N (SiMe3) 2} 2] 3][Li …

The chemical background of olfactory perception has been subject of intensive research, but
no available model can fully explain the sense of smell. There are also inconsistent results …

Das in dieser Arbeit vorgestellte kooperative Katalysesystem vereint eindrucksvoll die
Vorteile Ti III-katalysierter Epoxidöffnungen mit denen des CpCr (CO) 3 H-vermittelten H …
