Salts with asymmetric (fluorosulfonyl)(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (FTFSI) anions have recently been shown to suppress crystallization of water-in-salt electrolytes, enabling low-temperature operation of high-voltage aqueous rechargeable batteries. To c ...
The isomerization dynamics of five labile octahedral Co(II) compounds have been investigated by variable temperature and pressure 1H and 19F NMR spectroscopy in dichloromethane solution. The X-ray crystal structure of the two tris-chelates, [Co(HFA)2bpic] ...
Two types of dimeric complexes [Ln2(hfa)6(í2-O(CH2)2NHMe2)2] and [Ln(thd)2(í2,è2-O(CH2)2NMe2)]2 (Ln ) YIII, EuIII, GdIII, TbIII, TmIII, LuIII; hfa- ) hexafluoroacetylacetonato, thd- ) dipivaloylmethanato) are obtained by reacting [Ln(hfa)3(H2O)2] and [Ln(t ...
There are only few structural thermodynamic and kinetic studies on labile octahedral complexes available today. Octahedral paramagnetic compounds of cobalt(II) have an optimum electronic relaxation leading to NMR spectra with good resolution. Therefore, th ...
Phosphane complexes of the putative formula [CoX2(dppe)] [X = Cl, Br, I; dppe = bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethane] are frequently used catalyst precursors in cobalt-catalyzed reactions. Despite their widespread use, these complexes have not been structurally c ...
This thesis encompasses work on the coordination chemistry and catalytic activity of half sandwich ruthenium(II)-arene phosphine complexes. The investigation of phosphine dissociation and association reactions of these complexes represents the unifying the ...
The cyanobacterial metabolite anachelin, postulated to serve as a biological ligand to Fe (siderophore), is composed of a fascinating blend of polyketide, peptide, and alkaloid building blocks. In particular, the latter consists of a N,N-dimethyltetrahydro ...
The importance of catalysis in chemistry has not to be proved anymore. Be it homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysis, the constant progresses observed in that field proves its obvious interest. The asymmetric homogeneous catalysis is a method of choice to s ...
The reaction of [(η6-p-cymene)RuCl2]2 with some bis(phosphane) ligands (dppm, dppe, dppv, dppa, dpp14b, dppf) has been investigated. In general mixtures of products were obtained, although the pendant phosphane complexes [( ...
Hydrogenation of the water-soluble [{RuCl2(mtppms)(2)}(2)] (mtppms = monosulfonated triphenylphosphine) was studied in aqueous solutions in the presence of excess mtppms both with H-2 and with aqueous HCOONa. Depending on the reductant, the pH and H-2 pres ...
