The use of metal–ligand cooperation (MLC) by transition metal bifunctional catalysts has
emerged at the forefront of homogeneous catalysis science. Specially designed ligands can …

Two-electron reduction of the amidate-supported U (III) mono (arene) complex U (TDA) 3 (2)
with KC8 yields the anionic bis (arene) complex [K [2.2. 2] cryptand][U (TDA) 2](3)(TDA= N …

Aminoalcohols are an easily available, highly diverse, and inexpensive class of ligands with
numerous applications in biological and technological contexts of metal–ligand mediated …

Catalytic hydrogenation or transfer hydrogenation of quinolines was thought to be a direct
strategy to access dihydroquinolines. However, the challenge is to control the …

We report a room-temperature protocol for the hydrogenation of various amides to produce
amines and alcohols. Compared with most previous reports for this transformation, which …

A family of anionic, formally nickel (0) complexes supported by bidentate NHC–pyridone
ligands is described. The unsymmetric chelating environment and capping [K (18-crown-6)]+ …

Efficient control of regioselectivity is a key concern in transition-metal-catalyzed direct C–H
functionalization reactions. Various strategies for regiocontrol have been established by …

Hemilabile ligands that undergo reversible changes in denticity have long been exploited to
enable catalyst activation and to increase lifetime. However, this common description does …

We report an iron system, Cp* Fe (1, 2-R2PC6H4X), which controls the Markovnikov and
anti-Markovnikov hydrostannation of alkynes by tuning the ionic metal–heteroatom bonds …

The chemistry of group 4 elements has historically been dominated by the use of
metallocene complexes in stoichiometric transformations. While this area continues to be …
