Interelement compounds, that is, compounds containing an interelement bond, 1 are
attractive main group element precursors as these provide the opportunity to transfer both …

Hydrosilanes are used as versatile coreactants in the generation of silyl-metal complexes.
Since organohydrosilanes may contain one, two, or three SiH bonds as tertiary, secondary …

In this paper, the trans influence of boryl ligands, together with that of other ligands
commonly believed to have a strong trans influence, has been investigated theoretically via …

In this feature article, we discuss selected recent aspects of metal boryl (M–BR2) chemistry
pertaining, in particular, to the role of late and post-transition metal boryl complexes in …

Transition-metal complexes that bear group-13 X-type metalloligands have attracted
considerable interest on account of their strong σ-donicity, which can dramatically tune the …

The regioselectivity in the addition of silylboronic esters to terminal alkynes can be switched
by the choice of phosphorus ligands on the palladium catalysts. The silaboration proceeds …

Iridium-catalyzed C–H borylation of THF was theoretically investigated as example of sp3 C–
H functionalization. DFT computations show that β-regioselective borylation occurs more …

Rhodium hydrido boryl complexes of the form [(PR3) 2RhHCl {B (OR ') 2}] are key first
intermediates in several Rh-catalyzed borylation processes. Previous theoretical studies …

β-Heteroatom and β-hydrogen eliminations of the model complexes [L2PdCH2CH2X]+(L2=
H2PCH2CH2PH2; X= halides, OMe, OH, OAc) were studied using density function theory …

Density functional calculations have been used to investigate C–C, C–N and C–O bond
forming reactions via reductive elimination from Group 10 cis-M (PH3) 2 (CH3)(X) species …
