Transition-metal-catalyzed reactions have been studied since the very beginning of the past
century and represent a great success in organic chemistry, along with the birth and growth …

Inspired by the need for green and sustainable chemistry,(1) synthetic chemists seek more
efficient ways to construct carbon− carbon (C− C) bonds, the essential link in all organic …

We study the electrochemical, spectroscopic, and photocatalytic properties of a series of Ru
(II)− Re (I) binuclear complexes linked by bridging ligands 1, 3-bis (4 '-methyl-[2, 2 '] …

We have developed the first example of a photoredox catalytic method for the formation of
carbon–fluorine (C–F) bonds. The mechanism has been studied using transient absorption …

The new functionalized polypyridine ligands 4 '-(4-chlorophenyl)-6 '-phenyl-2, 2 '-bipyridine
(clpbpy), 4 '-(4-tolyl)-6 '-phenyl-2, 2 '-bipyridine (tpbpy), and 4 '-(4-carboxyphenyl)-6 '-phenyl …

The synthesis and properties of several complexes of Ru (II) containing 4, 4 '-dicarboxy-2, 2 '-
bipyridine (dcbpyH2), 2, 6-bis (1-methylbenzimidazol-2-yl) pyridine (bmipy), or 2, 6-bis (1 …

The synthesis and photophysical properties of two Ru (II) diimine complexes bearing one
(dyad) and three (tetrad) pyrenyl units, respectively, are presented. The pyrene …

An extensive series of blue-luminescent iridium (III) complexes has been prepared
containing two phenylpyridine-type ligands and one ligand containing two pyrazolylpyridine …

We have prepared rodlike cyclometalated Ru (II)/Os (II) dinuclear complexes,(ttp) Ru (dpb-
(ph) n-dpb) Os (ttp) 2+, where the biscyclometalating bridging ligands contain …

Substituted bipyridines were efficiently prepared by direct coupling between pyridine N-
oxides and halopyridines using a palladium catalyst. Pyridine N-oxides with electron …
