Guidelines for Measurement of Luminescence Spectra and Quantum Yields of Inorganic Compounds, Metal Complexes, and Materials

Jean-Claude Bünzli

Guidelines for measuring luminescence of inorganic compounds, metal complexes and organometallic compounds are described. Common textbooks and manuals describing these measurements are usually aimed for physical and/or organic chemists and are not always s ...

Chiral Cyclopentadienyl Rh(III)-Complexes for Asymmetric C-H Functionalizations

Baihua Ye

Pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (Cp*) based transition-metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization has become an important synthetic tool for the construction of molecular complexity from simple starting materials. Despite their high potential, the corresponding asy ...

Empirical rules of molecular photophysics in the light of ultrafast spectroscopy

Majed Chergui

The advent of ultrafast laser spectroscopy has allowed entirely new possibilities for the investigation of the ultrafast photophysics of inorganic metal-based molecular complexes. In this review we show different regimes where non-Kasha behavior shows up. ...

Asymmetric Rhodium(I)-Catalyzed C-C Activations with Zwitterionic Bis-phospholane Ligands

Nicolai Cramer

The development of unconventional ligand scaffolds is an important aspect to alter reaction pathways of transition-metal-catalyzed reactions. The nature of the counterion of cationic metal complexes plays an important role in the catalyst reactivity. We he ...
