Transition-metal catalyzed C-H functionalizations became a complementary and efficient bond-forming strategy over the past decade. In this respect, Cp*Rh(III) complexes have emerged as powerful catalysts for a broad spectrum of reactions giving access to s ...
(Chemical Equation Presented) Less carbon: Following a biogenetic proposal, the unusual 6-5-6 carbon skeleton of C19 taiwaniaquinoids was obtained by an intramolecular benzilic acid rearrangement from a C20 precur-sor. A protecting-group-free total synthes ...
The work presented in this thesis focused on the synthesis and characterization of new metalloligands based on iron(II) clathrochelate complexes. Clathrochelates can be functionalized peripherally with donor groups capable of coordinating metal ions. The s ...
Templating approaches based on the self-assembly of block-copolymers represent a powerful tool for the preparation of ordered carbon-containing nanomaterials. Combining such strategies with the use of well-defined amphiphilic precursors with sp2-carbon-ric ...
Individual MO (MO) contributions to the magnetic shielding of atoms as well as to the nucleus-independent chem. shifts (NICS) of arom. compds. can be computed by the widely used gauge-including AO (GIAO) method. Detailed analyses of magnetic shielding MO-N ...
Organometallic ruthenium(II) complexes of the general formula [Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl2(L)] and [Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl(L)2][BPh4] with modified phenoxazine- and anthracene-based multidrug resistanc ...
The crystal structure of a strontium-imidazolium polymeric material obtained from the reaction of zwitterionic 1,3-bis(carboxymethyl)-imidazolium with SrCO3 (2:1) in water is reported. The compound crystallized in the orthorhombic space group Pcc2 with a = ...
Various methods for the synthesis of bimetallic complexes, in which two different metal fragments which are connected by two or three halogeno bridges, are reported. The reactions are usually fast and give rise to structurally defined products in quantitat ...
We present a fragment-based decomposition analysis tool (FB-ECDA) for the electronic coupling of charge transfer processes. This tool provides insight on the sophisticated relationship between molecular packing, electronic coupling, and the molecular trans ...
The connection of twelve peripheral and divergent dodecyloxy chains to a central tridentate aromatic binding unit provides the dodecacatenar ligand L11, for which room- temperature mesomorphism is detected. An enthalpically unbalanced large melting entropy ...
