The fields of theoretical and computational chemistry have come a long way since their
inception in the mid-20th century. Fifty years ago, only rudimentary approximations for very …

The phenomenon of agostic interactions is reviewed and the nature of the interaction is
revisited. A historical perspective is followed by an overview of experimental techniques …

A. Hydride Is the Smallest Ligand and the Only One To Make a Pure Single Bond to a Metal
Hydride is the ligand with the smallest number of valence electrons and thus an ideal choice …

In this review, the coordination chemistry of electron‐rich metal complexes with the simple
aliphatic, anionic diphosphanylamido ligand {N (CH2CH2PR2) 2}–is covered and compared …

A continuous shape and symmetry study of tetracoordinate transition‐metal complexes is
presented, in an attempt to provide a systematic description of the stereochemistry of the …

Generalized polyhedral interconversion coordinates are defined within the framework of
Avnir's continuous shape measures. The application of such interconversion coordinates to …

Reaction of the ligand 1, 3-bis ((di-tert-butylphosphino) methyl) benzene (1a) with the
[RhCO]+ fragment in THF resulted in clean formation of the crystallographically …

Agostic interactions are covalent intramolecular interactions between an electron deficient
metal and a σ-bond in close geometrical proximity to the metal atom. While the classic cases …

A new generation of simple methylidene complexes has been prepared by reactions of
excited group 4− 6 transition metal atoms with methyl halides and methane in solid argon …

DFT methods were used to elucidate features of coordination environment of Pd (II) that
could enable Ar− F reductive elimination as an elementary C− F bond-forming reaction …
