This review serves to document advances in the synthesis, versatile bonding, and reactivity
of molecular main group metal hydrides within Groups 1, 2, and 12–16. Particular attention …

The relationship between the monomer structure and polymer properties is central to
materials science. Here we discuss the notion of monomer dimensionality, as it refers to the …

Geometric perturbation away from classical structures can engender unusual frontier MO
situations leading to high Lewis acidity. Recently we reported a T-shaped bismuth triamide …

The bismuth hydride (2, 6-Mes2H3C6) 2BiH (1, Mes= 2, 4, 6-trimethylphenyl), which has a Bi–
H 1H NMR spectroscopic signal at δ= 19.64 ppm, was reacted with phenylacetylene at 60° …

Electrophilic AlIII species have long dominated the aluminum reactivity towards arenes.
Recently, nucleophilic low‐valent AlI aluminyl anions have showcased oxidative additions …

The aim of this review is to summarize recent achievements in the field of (N), C, N‐
coordinated group 13–15 compounds not only regarding their synthesis and structure, but …

The stabilization of silicon (II) and germanium (II) dihydrides by an intramolecular Frustrated
Lewis Pair (FLP) ligand, PB, iPr2P (C6H4) BCy2 (Cy= cyclohexyl) is reported. The resulting …

Tetraarylmethanes and adamantanes are important rigid covalent connectors that play a
four‐way scaffolding role in molecular and materials chemistry. We report the synthesis of a …

Heteroleptic stibanes Cp*(R) SbCl (R= Dip 1, N (SiMe3) 22, OB (NDipCH) 23; Cp*= C5Me5;
Dip= 2, 6-i-Pr2-C6H3) react with monovalent gallanediyl LGa (L= HC [C (Me) N (Dip)] 2) with …

Thermally-robust bismuthanylstibanes are prepared in a one-step, high yield reaction,
providing the first examples of neutral Bi–Sb σ-bonds in the solid state. DFT calculations …
