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 …

This third review in a series involving reactions of hydrosilanes and transition metal
complexes and characterization of the products covers the period 2009 thru 2013. After a …

Homogeneous catalysis of organic transformations by metal complexes has been mostly
based on complexes of noble metals. In recent years, tremendous progress has been made …

The direct formation of ammonia from molecular dinitrogen under mild reaction conditions
was achieved by using new cobalt dinitrogen complexes bearing an anionic PNP‐type …

The hydrosilylation of alkene substrates bearing additional functionalities is difficult to
achieve using earth-abundant catalysts and has not been extensively realized with both …

The pincer ligand MeN [CH2CH2 (P i Pr2)] 2 (i PrPNP) was employed to support a series of
cobalt (I) complexes, which were crystallographically characterized. A cobalt monochloride …

The amino imidazolin-2-imine ligand [HAmIm, 1, 2-(DippNH)–C6H4–N═ C (N i PrCMe) 2] is
employed in the synthesis of the paramagnetic cobalt (I) arene complex Co (AmIm)(η 6 …

Late-transition-metal-based catalysts are widely used in N2 fixation reactions, but the
reactivity of late-transition-metal N2 complexes, besides iron N2 complexes, has remained …

The structures and reactivity of various catalytic model systems of nitrogenase are reviewed.
Firstly, the Schrock cycle is discussed as an example of a nitrogen‐fixing system for which …

Readily accessible (i-PrPDI) CoCl2 [i-PrPDI= 2, 6-bis (2, 6-diisopropylphenyliminoethyl)
pyridine] reacts with 2 equiv of NaEt3BH at− 78° C in toluene to generate a catalyst that …
