This is a review of papers published in the year 2012 that focus on the synthesis, reactivity,
or properties of compounds containing a carbon-transition metal double or triple bond.

A series of quinoline derivatives containing bithiophene and N-octyl-carbazole moieties and
a variety of substituents in the quinoline core were synthesized and characterized. The …

Upon the simple addition of substrates, the ruthenium pincer complex [Ru (tBuPNP)(H2)(H)
2][1; tBuPNP= 2, 6‐bis (di‐tert‐butylphosphinomethyl) pyridine] is an active and selective …

The impact of the alkyl chain on the nitrogen atom─ N-ethyl, N-butyl, N-octyl, and N-
dodecyl─ in phenothiazines with bis-2-cyanoacrylic acid units on the optical and …

This work links aspects of non-covalent interaction among gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and
ruthenium complexes, which were used to modify the surface of the glassy carbon electrode …

Abstract The complexes trans-[RuCl 2 (dppb)(cydn)](1), trans-[RuCl 2 (dppb)(opda)](2) and
cis-[RuCl 2 (dppb)(cydn)](3) were synthesized from [{RuCl 2 (dppb)} 2-μ-(dppb)]{where …

In this paper, the influence of pseudohalide ligands coordinated to the ruthenium center on
the hydrogenation of cyclohexene was investigated. The pseudohalide complexes …

{Me2-bpy= 4, 4ʹ-dimethyl-2, 2ʹ-bipyridine,(3) R= Cl, Rʹ= N≡ CMe, x= 1,(4) R= Cl, Rʹ …

The coordination chemistry of ruthenium, osmium, technetium and rhenium with carbon-
based ligands covering the literature from 2003 to 2018 is discussed. These metals form a …

This thesis is divided into three chapters. The first chapter covers a background about the
light interaction with matter, describing the possible processes arised from the interaction …
