The activation and utilization of substrates mediated by Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLPs) was
initially believed to occur solely via a two-electron, cooperative mechanism. More recently …

Photocatalytic CO2 reduction is an effective means to generate renewable energy. It
involves redox reactions, reduction of CO2 and oxidation of water, that leads to the …

The articulation of the notion of “frustrated Lewis pairs”(FLPs) emerged from the discovery
that H2 can be reversibly activated by combinations of sterically encumbered main group …

Frustrated radical pairs (FRPs) describe the phenomenon that two distinct radicals─ which
would otherwise annihilate each other to form a closed-shell covalent adduct─ can coexist …

BACKGROUND Since the work of Sabatier 100 year ago, chemists have turned almost
exclusively to metals to activate H2 by weakening or cleaving its central bond. This …

Abstract Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) are combinations of Lewis acids and Lewis bases in
solution that are deterred from strong adduct formation by steric and/or electronic factors …

This article is focused on recent developments in main group mediated hydrogenation
chemistry and catalysis using “frustrated Lewis pairs”(FLPs). The broading range of …

discovery that H2 can be reversibly activated by combinations of sterically encumbered …

The concerted action of a Lewis acid and base can activate H 2 and other small molecules.
Such frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) have garnered much attention and prompted many …

The study of main-group molecules that behave and react similarly to transition-metal (TM)
complexes has attracted significant interest in recent decades. Most notably, the attractive …
