Complexes of transition metals with heavy analogs of carbenes (tetrylenes) as ligands have
been studied now for some 40 years. The current review attempts to provide an overview …

This review describes recent studies on the synthesis and characterization of new
polynuclear ruthenium–tin cluster complexes, their conversion to heterometallic …

The coordination chemistry of cyclic stannylene‐based intramolecular Lewis pairs is
presented. The P→ Sn adducts were treated with [Ni (COD) 2] and [Pd (PCy3) 2](COD= 1, 5 …

Over the past decade, the chemistry of low-valent transition metal clusters has again come to
the fore, primarily as a result of the development of nanochemistry and the realization that …

The coordination chemistry of intramolecular stannylene phosphorus Lewis pairs
incorporated into four membered ring systems is presented. Previously reported …

Minute stoichiometric bimetallic clusters rich in tin (PtSn2, RhSn2, and RuSn2) are powerful
selective hydrogenation catalysts: these “molecular metallic” entities, supported on …

When anchored on a high-area, siliceous supports, nanoparticle catalysts, consisting of two
or three different metals, but totaling no more than twenty atoms in all, exhibit exceptional …

Metal enolates are amongst the most important organometallic species in synthetic
chemistry. The generation of lithium enolates, for example, using strong lithium amide bases …

The cleavage of the chloride bridge in the dimeric transition complexes [(η3-C3H5) Pd] 2 (μ-
Cl) 2,[(η6-benzene) RuCl] 2 (μ-Cl) 2,[(η6-cymene) RuCl] 2 (μ-Cl) 2,[(CΟ) 3RuCl] 2 (μ-Cl) 2 …

Over the past few years, there have been several reports on bimetallic di–, tri–, tetra–, and
polynuclear osmium–tin and osmium–germanium carbonyl complexes. This review …
