The experimental and computational characterization of a series of dialkylterphenyl
phosphines, PR2Ar′ is described. The new P‐donors comprise five compounds of general …

In order to test metal diketonates as potential acceptors of bifurcated halogen bonds, the
series of acetylacetonates (acac) of divalent cations Cu (acac) 2 (1), Pd (acac) 2 (2), VO …

Ni (PMe3) 4 serves as a catalyst for the release of H2 and CO2 from formic acid. The
capacity of Ni (PMe3) 4 to achieve this transformation is linked to the ability of the PMe3 …

The stereoelectronic properties of a series of sterically hindered phosphines containing a
terphenyl substituent, PR 2 Ar'(R= alkyl; Ar'= C 6 H 3-2, 6-Ar 2), have been evaluated by …

A series of five new homoleptic, linear nickel d9‐complexes of the type [NiI (NHC) 2]+ is
reported. Starting from the literature known Ni (0) complexes [Ni (Mes2Im) 2] 1,[Ni …

The reaction of the NHC iPr2Im [NHC= N‐heterocyclic carbene, iPr2Im= 1, 3‐bis (isopropyl)
imidazolin‐2‐ylidene] with freshly prepared NiBr2 in thf or dme results in the formation of the …

There is an ongoing effort in the catalysis community to replace precious metal catalysts with
their base-metal congeners, especially by applied chemists. This is particularly true in the …

Investigations concerning the reactivity of Ni (0) complexes [Ni (NHC) 2] of NHCs (N‐
heterocyclic carbene) of different steric demand, Mes2Im (= 1, 3‐dimesitylimidazoline‐2 …

Aroyl complexes of the type trans‐[Ni (iPr2Im) 2 (X)(C (O) Ar)](X= Cl and Ar= Ph (2), 4‐tBu‐
C6H4 (3) and C6F5 (4) and X= Br and Ar= Ph (5)) were prepared by oxidative addition …

A study on the reactivity of NHC cobalt half-sandwich complexes [(η5-C5R15) Co
(R22Im)(η2-C2H4)](R1= H; R2= Me 1, iPr 2) and [(η5-C5R15) Co (R22Im)(η2-C2H3 …
