The synthesis, reactivity, and potential of well-defined dinuclear gold complexes as precursors for dual-gold catalysis is explored. Using the preorganizing abilities of well-known wide bite angle diphosphine ligands, DBFPhos and DPEPhos, dinuclear A...

The 2,2′:6′:2″-terpyridine ligand has literally shaped the coordination chemistry of transition metal complexes in a plethora of fields. Expansion of the ligand bite by amine functionalities between the pyridine units in the trident...

In this work, we demonstrated that air-stable Ni(0) complexes with phosphine ligands can effectively catalyze intramolecular cyclotrimerization of a triyne to a compound with a [7]helical indeno[2,1-c]fluorene skeleton. The obtained results are compa...

Electrochemical properties of transition metal complexes are important parameters that should be considered for the successful application of these compounds in catalytic reactions. The proper choice of ligands and the type of its coordination allow...

Nickel (II) complexes stabilized by PNP(NR₂)₂ (L¹: R = Methyl, L²: R = ethyl, L³: R = isopropyl) ligands were synthesized and characterized. A narrow range of products was observed for catalytic systems containing nickel complexes and ethyl aluminum...

The nickel-catalyzed addition of Hydrocyanic acid (HCN) to butadiene usually leads to a mixture of the branched 2-methyl-3-butenenitrile (2M3BN) and the linear 3-pentenenitrile (3PN) with a 30:70 ratio by employing mono-dentate phosphites, while a 97...

A class of so-called POP ligands (Xanthos, NiXantphos, DPEphos) are of a great interest to the coordination chemistry due to their wide P-M-P bite angles and ability to show either κ²- or κ³-binding modes. Such κ²–κ³-rea...

This review deals with olefin carbonylation catalysed by Pd(II)-phosphine complexes in protic solvents. In particular, the results obtained in the carbonylation with ethene are reviewed. After a short description of the basic concepts relevant to thi...

It is generally accepted that adjacent guanine residues in DNA are the primary target for platinum antitumor drugs and that differences in the conformations of the Pt-DNA adducts can play a role in their antitumor activity. In this study, we investig...

A review of the tripodal Schiff base (SB) complexes of tris(2-aminoethyl)amine, N_ap(CH₂CH ₂NH₂)₃ (tren), and a few closely related tripodal amines with Cr(II), Mn(III) (d⁴), Mn(II), Fe(III) (d⁵), Fe(II) (d⁶), and Co(II) (d⁷) is provided. Attention is...
