Fluorinated gases (F-gases) are routinely employed as refrigerants, blowing agents, and
electrical insulators. These volatile compounds are potent greenhouse gases and …

Since the seminal report on Mg in the+ I oxidation state in 2007, low-valent complexes
featuring a MgI–MgI bond developed from trophy molecules to state-of-the-art reducing …

With fluoroaromatic compounds increasingly employed as scaffolds in agrochemicals and
active pharmaceutical ingredients, the development of methods which facilitate …

Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are pervasive in the environment. The largest single use
material within the PFAS compound class is poly (tetrafluoroethylene)(PTFE), a robust and …

The activation and functionalization of carbon–fluorine bonds represent a significant
synthetic challenge, given the high thermodynamic barrier to C–F bond cleavage …

A number of new magnesium and lithium silyl reagents were prepared and shown to be
outstanding nucleophiles in reactions with industrially relevant fluoroolefins. These reactions …

A series of heterodinuclear complexes are reported where both Zn (II) and a metal from
Group 1 or 2 are chelated by a macrocyclic diphenolate-tetra-amine ligand. The complexes …

Inspired by natural metalloenzymes that efficiently catalyze a variety of transformations,
chemists have developed large numbers of dinuclear transition-metal complexes with …

The unprecedented synthesis of gem-difluoroalkenes through the Ramberg–Bäcklund
reaction of alkyl triflones is described herein. Structurally diverse, fully substituted gem …

The widespread use of fluorinated organic compounds in the health, agrochemical, and
materials sciences is sustained by a steadily growing pool of commercially available fine …
