α-Diimine ligands, in particular 1, 4-diazabutadiene (dad) and bis (iminoacenaphthene)(
bian) derivatives, have been widely used for coordination with various metals, including …

The synthesis and isolation of stable main group compounds featuring multiple bonds has
been of great interest for several decades. A plethora of such multiply bonded complexes …

Since aluminum is the most electropositive element among the p-block elements, the
construction of molecules bearing a dianionic Al–Al σ-bond is inherently highly challenging …

The reactivity of two α-diimine-ligated digallanes,[L2–Ga–GaL2–](La=[(2, 6-iPr2C6H3) NC
(CH3)] 2, dpp-dad, 1; Lb= 1, 2-[(2, 6-iPr2C6H3) NC] 2C10H6, dpp-bian, 2), and a …

Azo compounds have attracted much attention in the past decades, due to their unique
properties. Recently, the free radical strategy has been widely applied to the chemical …

A non‐solvated alkyl‐substituted Al (I) anion dimer was synthesized by a reduction of
haloalumane precursor using a mechanochemical method. The crystallographic and …

The reactivity of dialkylalumanyl anion (1) towards naphthalene, anthracene,
diphenylacetylene, and (E)/(Z)‐stilbenes was investigated. The compound 1 reacts with …

The synthesis and characterization of novel N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) stabilized
dialanes Al2Mes4 as well as first investigations concerning the reactivity of these …

Whereas the chemistry of single‐bond activation by compounds of the main group elements
has undergone some development in recent years, the cleavage of multiple bonds remains …
