For over a century, aryldiazonium halides have served as widely used building blocks within synthetic chemistry. They are vital intermediates in converting simple anilines to high-value products, incl...

These compounds may find uses as nitrene precursors

Low oxidation state aluminium complexes have gained wide recognition as discrete and versatile 2-electron reductants, but neutral trimeric structures remain elusive. Here the authors report the synthe...

Homogeneous catalytic hydroboration represents a valuable strategy for the synthesis of alcohols but reports which employ iron-based catalysts are somewhat limited. Here, the authors report an iron me...

The isolation of catenated nitrogen compounds is difficult, in part because these chains can readily lose nitrogen, creating a strong thermodynamic push towards decomposition. Now, a series of molecul...

The reaction of Zintl phases K3As7 and K3P7 were investigated with 1-azido-4-bromobenzene (4-BrC6H4N3) and found to yield potassium salts of substituted diazadipnictogen rings (general molecular fragm...

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is sometimes referred to as the forgotten greenhouse gas, but ignoring it would be a mistake. N2O has a greenhouse warming potential 300× that of CO2, and anthropogenic emissions a...
