Nanocrystals of gadolinium orthoferrite (GdFeO₃) with morphology close to isometric and superparamagnetic behavior were successfully synthesized using direct, reverse and microreactor co-precipitation of gadolinium and iron(III) hydroxides with their...

The reaction of ammoniacal AgNO₃ solution (or aq. solution of [Ag(NH₃)₂]NO₃) with aq. NaClO₄ resulted in [Ag(NH₃)₂]ClO₄ (compound 1). Detailed spectroscopic (correlation analysis, IR, Raman, and UV) analyses were performed on [Ag(NH₃)₂]ClO₄. The temp...

As the world evolves, so does the energy demand. The storage of hydrogen using metal hydrides shows great promise due to the ability to store and deliver energy on demand while achieving higher volumetric density and safer storage conditions compared...

Magnesium-based hydrides are considered as promising candidates for solid-state hydrogen storage and thermal energy storage, due to their high hydrogen capacity, reversibility, and elemental abundance of Mg. To improve the sluggish kinetics of MgH₂,...

A new mixed alkali metal–aluminum borohydride LiAl(BH₄)₂Cl₂ has been prepared via mechanochemical synthesis from the 2LiBH₄–AlCl₃ mixture. Structural characterization, performed using a combination of X-ray powder diffraction and solid-state NMR meth...

Mono- and binuclear arene–ruthenium(II) complexes with imidazole-containing ligands were prepared by the reaction of the ligands (L¹ = bis(imidazole-1-yl)methane; ImH = 1H-Imidazole; BImH = 1H-Benzimidazole) with [(p-cym)Ru(µ-Cl)₂]₂ dimers. When bis(...

Metal–Organic Frameworks (MOFs) and Coordination Polymers (CPs) are at the forefront of contemporary coordination chemistry research, as witnessed by the impressive (and ever-growing) number of publications appearing in the literature on this topic i...

The development of supramolecular systems showing aurophilic interactions in solution is gaining much attention in the last years. This is due to the intriguing photophysical properties of gold(I) complexes, which usually confer to these supramolecul...

Information resulting from a comprehensive investigation into the intrinsic strengths of hydrated divalent magnesium clusters is useful for elucidating the role of aqueous solvents on the Mg²⁺ ion, which can be related to those in bulk aqueous soluti...

The anharmonic phonon behavior in zirconium hydrides and deuterides, including ϵ-ZrH₂, γ-ZrH, and γ-ZrD, has been investigated from aspects of inelastic neutron scattering (INS) and lattice dynamics calculations within the framework of density functi...

Separate reactions of [Th{N(CH₂CH₂NSiMe₂Bu^t)₂(CH₂CH₂NSi(Me)(Bu^t)(μ-CH₂)]₂ (1) with [Re(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂(H)] (2) or [Ru(η⁵-C₅H₅)(H)(CO)₂] (3) produced, by alkane elimination, [Th(Tren^DMBS)Re(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂] (ThRe, Tren^DMBS = {N(CH₂CH₂NSiMe₂Bu^t)₃}^3-), and [Th(Tren...
