Transition metal complexes in aqueous solutions undergo a fascinating array of photochemical transformations when exposed to light. The interaction of light with these complexes initiates electronic ...

Skeletons I-V containing three or four coplanar M–C σ bonds are shown on the left. The two skeletons with five coplanar M–C σ bonds are placed on the right. Art by Dafa Chen. This study is led by Dr.

N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) metal complexes have emerged as pivotal tools in modern catalysis, owing to their robust σ-donating properties and remarkable stability. These complexes, which feature a ...

This rapid screening process identified an iridium-based antibiotic candidate that shows promise in human cells to kill bacteria while remaining nontoxic.

New play in transition metal chemistry playbook revealed. New research shows that net oxidative addition can occur via a different order of events in which the transitiion metal complex accepts ...

Following cisplatin's success in the treatment of cancer, numerous other platinum-based complexes have been investigated as ...

Speeding up chemical reactions is key to improving industrial processes or mitigating unwanted or harmful waste. Realizing these improvements requires that chemists design around documented reaction ...
