Classical N‐heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) featuring the carbene center at the C2‐position
of 1, 3‐imidazole framework (ie C2‐carbenes) are well acknowledged as very versatile …

A growing number of organopnictogen redox catalytic methods have emerged—especially
within the past 10 years—that leverage the plentiful reversible two-electron redox chemistry …

Herein we present the catalytic activation of N2O at a BiI⇄ BiIII redox platform. The activation
of such a kinetically inert molecule was achieved by the use of bismuthinidene catalysts …

Herein, we report a hydrodefluorination reaction of polyfluoroarenes catalyzed by
bismuthinidenes, Phebox-Bi (I) and OMe-Phebox-Bi (I). Mechanistic studies on the …

Hypervalent (three-center, four-electron) bonding in organobismuth complexes has been
extensively studied due to its ability to affect molecular geometry, dynamic behavior, or to …

A family of aryl dinuclear bismuthane complexes has been successfully synthesized and
characterized. The two bismuth centers are bonded to various xanthene-type backbones …

The stibinidene ArSbI (Ar=[2, 6-(t BuN═ CH) 2-C6H3], 1) reacts with S2Tol2 (Tol= p-tolyl) to
form ArSbIII (STol) 2 (2), which upon treatment with pinacolborane, regenerates 1. These …

Bismacycles featuring a sulfone-bridged scaffold have recently been developed as versatile
and convenient electrophilic arylating agents. Here, we report that the exocyclic aryl group …

Organopnictogen cations show promise as powerful, tunable main-group Lewis acid
catalysts. The synthesis, solid-state structures, and reactivity of a series of weakly …

When bismuth atoms are incorporated into cyclic organic systems, this commonly goes
along with strained or distorted molecular geometries, which can be exploited to modulate …
