The catalytic hydrogenation of CO 2 with renewable H 2 is considered as one of the most
practical approaches for the reduction of CO 2 and the synthesis of valuable chemicals and …

This review provides a comprehensive view of the application of first-row transition metals in
asymmetric hydrogenation and asymmetric transfer hydrogenation. The catalytic behavior of …

Metal-catalyzed highly Markovnikov-type selective hydrofunctionalization of terminal alkynes
provides a straightforward and atom-economical route to access 1, 1-disubstituted alkenes …

The manipulation of metal cluster enantiomers and their reconstruction remain challenging.
Here, for the first time, we report an enantiomeric pair of hydride copper clusters [Cu18H …

Conspectus In organic synthesis, ligand-modified copper (I) hydride (CuH) complexes have
become well-known reagents and catalysts for selective reduction, particularly toward …

The main contributions in the field of first-row transition-metal-catalyzed (base-metal-
catalyzed) carbonylative transformations have been summarized and discussed. The …

Cyclic (alkyl)-and (aryl)-(amino) carbenes (CAACs and CAArCs) are stronger σ-donors and
π-acceptors than imidazol-2-ylidenes and imidazolidin-2-ylidenes, the well-known N …

The emergence of N-heterocyclic carbenes as ligands across the Periodic Table had an
impact on various aspects of the coordination, organometallic, and catalytic chemistry of the …
