The use of 3d metals in de/hydrogenation catalysis has emerged as a competitive field with
respect to “traditional” precious metal catalyzed transformations. The introduction of …

Transition metal hydrides play a critical role in stoichiometric and catalytic transformations.
Knowledge of free energies for cleaving metal hydride bonds enables the prediction of …

The reactivity of metal‐hydride complexes can be harnessed by the modification of ancillary
ligands. With the aim of improving the hydride‐donor ability of the key Mn− H intermediate …

Molecular electrocatalysts can play an important role in energy storage and utilization
reactions needed for intermittent renewable energy sources. This manuscript describes …

Transition metal hydride complexes are usually amphoteric, not only acting as hydride
donors, but also as Brønsted–Lowry acids. A simple additive ligand acidity constant …

The field of amine borane chemistry has seen significant advances and fascinating
developments in the last decade, mostly driven by the potential use of hydrogen-rich amine …

This review highlights the use of a bisphosphine ligand group in homogeneous catalysis.
This ligand group is known as the Xantphos-like ligands, which are based on the generic …

Despite the fundamental importance of the hydricity of a transition metal hydride (Δ GH–
°(MH) for the reaction M–H→ M++ H–) in a range of reactions important in catalysis and …

A simple equation (p K aTHF=∑ AL+ C charge+ C nd+ C d6) can be used to obtain an
estimate of the p K a of diamagnetic transition metal hydride and dihydrogen complexes in …

The copper (I) triphosphine complex LCu (MeCN) PF6 (L= 1, 1, 1-tris (
diphenylphosphinomethyl) ethane), which we recently demonstrated is an active catalyst …
