Rhodium?6-arene complexes can be generated in the presence of arenes following the hydrogenation of the diolefin in rhodium catalyst precursors of the type [Rh(PP*)(diolefin)]X (PP*=chelating diphosphane, X=noncoordinati...
Vapor- and gas-responsive ionic liquids (ILs) comprised of cationic metal-chelate complexes and bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (Tf2N) have been prepared, namely, [Cu(acac)(BuMe3en)][Tf2N] (1?a), [Cu(Bu-acac)(BuMe3en)...
Symmetric- and asymmetric hexaarylbenzenes (HABs), each substituted with three electron-donor triarylamine redox centers and three electron-acceptor triarylborane redox centers, were synthesized by cobalt-catalyzed cyclo...
A family of photocatalysts for water splitting into hydrogen was prepared by distributing TiO6 units in an MTi-layered double hydroxide matrix (M=Ni, Zn, Mg) that displays largely enhanced photocatalytic activity with an...
