The chemistry of vanadium has seen remarkable activity in the past 50 years. In the present
review, reactions catalyzed by homogeneous and supported vanadium complexes from …

Nature has evolved halogenase enzymes to regioselectively halogenate a diverse range of
biosynthetic precursors, with the halogens introduced often having a profound effect on the …

The understanding of the role of vanadium enzymes and of vanadium compounds (VCs) in
biology, as well as the design of new vanadium-based species for catalysis, materials …

Vanadium is an element ubiquitously present in our planet's crust and thus there are several
organisms that use vanadium for activity or function of proteins. Examples are the vanadium …

Organohalide is one of the most important and useful compounds in organic chemistry,
broadly embodied in diverse bioactive molecules, organic materials and agrochemicals …

This review article is a comprehensive report on vanadium oxides which are interesting
materials for environmental applications. Therefore, a general overview of vanadium and its …

Over the past two decades increasing information about the function and structural detail of
phosphatases has become available detailing the interaction with vanadate or other …

In the environment, vanadium-dependent haloperoxidases (VHPO) are likely to play a key
role in the production of biogenic organohalogens. These enzymes contain vanadate as a …

Chemical halogenation is an important transformation in organic synthesis. Halogenations
involve the use of reactive and toxic halogens (X 2) or hydrogen halides (HX). Chemical …

The oxidative bromination of olefins, alkynes, and ketones has been developed with HBr as
the brominating reagent and DMSO as the mild oxidant. The simple conditions, high …
