This is a tutorial on use of external-electric-fields (EEFs) as effectors of chemical change.
The tutorial instructs readers how to conceptualize and design electric-field effects on bonds …

Abstract Frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) are combinations of Lewis acids and Lewis bases in
solution that are deterred from strong adduct formation by steric and/or electronic factors …

Reaction rates of common organic reactions have been reported to increase by one to six
orders of magnitude in aqueous microdroplets compared to bulk solution, but the reasons for …

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a powerful transduction technique with a leading role in
the biosensing field due to its high sensitivity and low background signal. Although the …

The articulation of the notion of “frustrated Lewis pairs”(FLPs), which emerged from the
discovery that H2 can be reversibly activated by combinations of sterically encumbered …

Oriented external electric fields (OEEFs) as' smart reagents' are no longer a theoretical
dream. Here, we discuss the wide-ranging potential of using OEEFs to catalyse and control …

The study of main-group molecules that behave and react similarly to transition-metal (TM)
complexes has attracted significant interest in recent decades. Most notably, the attractive …

The bond activation chemistry of B (C6F5) 3 and related electron-deficient boranes is
currently experiencing a renaissance due to the fascinating development of frustrated Lewis …

Abstract Der Begriff “frustrierte Lewis‐Paare”(FLPs) bezeichnet Kombinationen von Lewis‐
Säuren und Lewis‐Basen in Lösung, die aufgrund sterischer oder elektronischer Faktoren …

In recent years, external electric fields (EEFs) have captured some spotlight as novel
effectors of chemical change. EEFs directly impact the structure of molecular systems. For …
