We summarize here the research advances on the reactivity of metal clusters. After a simple
introduction of apparatuses used for gas-phase cluster reactions, we focus on the reactivity …

Multimetallic catalysis is based on the combined action of different metals in a chemical
transformation. It has witnessed rapidly increasing developments during the past decades in …

Catalysts play a very important role in the chemical industries. Catalysts have been used in
processes like the workup of fuels such as oil, gas and coal, purification of effluents and …

Weak attractive interactions between closed shell metal ions have been increasingly studied
in the last few years and are generally designated as metallophilic interactions. They are …

Gas‐phase experiments with state‐of‐the‐art techniques of mass spectrometry provide
detailed insights into numerous elementary processes. The focus of this Review is on …

In this review article, we discuss advances in the chemistry of metal carbonyl clusters
(MCCs) spanning the last three decades, with an emphasis on the more recent reports and …

A definition of minimum distortion paths between two polyhedra in terms of continuous
shape measures (CShM) is presented. A general analytical expression deduced for such …

Adsorption of CO on nanosize Pd particles was studied theoretically by density functional
method and spectroscopically by means of infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy …

Since the synthesis of the first arene ruthenium complexes in 1967, various groups have
systematically investigated the chemistry of this family of complexes because of their …

This book presents an overview of nanostructure determination and ways to find
relationships to the electronic and optical properties. The methods described can be applied …
