Ortho-vanillin became very popular in coordination chemistry because of its Schiff bases,
which generate a rich variety of complexes, ranging from oligonuclear species to …

The reaction of organic molecules mediated by a metal center (template synthesis) can
result in a final connectivity that may differ from the one obtained in the absence of the metal …

Despite binuclear Cu active sites present in some biological and heterogeneous catalysts,
the development of chiral binuclear copper catalysts is still in its infancy and remains a …

Abstract α-Olefins are essential chemical raw materials in the synthesis of emulsifiers,
plasticizers, and other value-added chemicals, and ethylene oligomerization is the main …

The aim of the paper was to synthesize a series of LnIII2 (Ln= Gd, Tb, Dy, and Ho)
complexes that offer a great perspective to construct functional magnetic materials. Here, we …

Tris-copper centers are present at the active site of multicopper oxidases (MCO) which
couple the four-electron reduction of molecular oxygen to water with the oxidation of …

Most biological and synthetic receptors for small organic molecules employ a combination of
relatively weak intermolecular interactions such as hydrogen bonds. A host compound that …
