Nitrous oxide (“laughing gas”, N2O) is a potent oxidation agent, from a thermodynamic point
of view.[1] Moreover, it is an environmentally benign oxidant, because the side product is …

Transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are among the most powerful synthetic
transformations. This paper describes an efficient copper-catalyzed homo-and cross …

Third-order nonlinear optical properties of a novel ruthenium complex (2-thioxo-1, 3-dithiole-
4, 5-dithiolato) triphenylarsenic Ru (III), have been investigated by employing Z-scan and …

We report the experimental investigation on third-order nonlinear optical parameters of a
novel (2-thioxo-1, 3-dithiole-4, 5-dithiolato) triphenylphosphine Ru (III)[RuL] both in solution …

Cyclopentadienyl (Cp) Ni (II) complexes [CpNiL][PF6] containing hybrid N, C chelating
benzothiazolyl NHC ligands (L1= 1-(2-benzothiazolyl)-3-methylimidazol-2-ylidene, 3a; L2 …

Heptafluorotolyl-substituted perfluorocyclopentene acts as a four-electron oxidant for the
homocoupling of Grignard reagents. It can also be used for catalytic homocoupling with a …

An efficient and simple synthetic method for biaryl synthesis was developed using Pd (OAc)
2 as catalyst from aryl hydrazides under O2. Various biaryls were synthesized in good …

This Commentary critically evaluates scientific journals' responsibility in addressing safety
concerns within chemical research publications. We highlight the risks associated with …

Homocoupling of heteroaryl/aryl/alkyl Grignard reagents: I 2 -promoted, or Ni- or Pd- or Cu- or
nano-Fe-based salt catalyzed - RSC Advances (RSC Publishing) DOI:10.1039/C6RA17859F …

An improved protocol has been developed for the MnCl2‐catalyzed cross‐coupling reaction
of two arylmagnesium bromides under dioxygen. The reaction was achieved by using the …
