N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) are nowadays ubiquitous and indispensable in many
research fields, and it is not possible to imagine modern transition metal and main group …

Ligand design allows arranging ligand entities and functional groups in order to generate a
plethora of non-covalent interactions such as π stacking, H bridging, and Lewis acid-base …

Copper guanidine quinolinyl complexes act as good entatic state models due to their
distorted structures leading to a high similarity between Cu (I) and Cu (II) complexes. For a …

This review summarises studies on the entatic state principle since 2000 when a
comprehensive review of Comba defined the field in coordination chemistry. It gives a …

The electron‐transfer abilities of the copper guanidinoquinoline (GUAqu) complexes [Cu
(TMGqu) 2]+/2+ and [Cu (DMEGqu) 2]+/2+(TMGqu= tetramethylguanidinoquinoline …

The rate constant for electron self-exchange (k 11) between LCuOH and [LCuOH]−(L= bis-2,
6-(2, 6-diisopropylphenyl) carboximidopyridine) was determined using the Marcus cross …

Nowadays, the daily work of many research communities is characterized by an increasing
amount and complexity of data. This makes it increasingly difficult to manage, access and …

Cu (I) photoredox catalysts have become popular alternatives to traditional Ir and Ru
photosensitizers. However, the flattening distortion during the Cu (I) to Cu (II) 3MLCT charge …

High-energy-resolution-fluorescence-detected X-ray absorption near-edge structure
(HERFD-XANES) spectroscopy is shown to be a sensitive tool to investigate the electronic …

Combining the new aromatic bis (guanidine) ligand bis (tetramethylguanidino) toluene
(TMG2tol) and different copper salts led to four new complexes. The molecular structures …
