ResearchA more sustainable chemical industry must move away from fossil-based carbon sources and instead utilize renewable feedstocks, such as CO2 or…

Im Jahr 2025 waren aller guten Dinge der Hauptgruppenchemie drei: ein dreifach geladenes Triborattrianion, ein Molekül mit linearer Al3-Einheit, das dritte Erdalkalimetall, das Stickstoff bindet, ein ...

The first series of fully characterized homoleptic alkynyl bismuth compounds Bi(C≡CR)3 is presented. Facile homolytic Bi–C bond cleavage grants access to alkynyl radicals, which have been employed in...

We describe the reaction between the linear iron(I/II) silylamides [FeL2]0,– (L = N{Dipp}SiMe3) and aryl azides N3R with different steric demand (R = Ph, 2-Me-C6H4 (Tol), 2,4-Me2-C6H3 (Xyl), 2,6-iPr2-...

France’s Sorbonne University plans to leave the Times Higher Education (THE) Rankings, adding its name to a growing number of universities rejecting lists that play one institution off against another...

A trigonal arylimido iron complex is reported which is found in an intermediate spin state. The iron bound imido unit is electronically flexible and acts as nucleophile, reductant, or H atom abstracto...

Low-valent cadmium compounds have remained largely unexplored as electron reservoirs, with no precedent for their use in reduction or bond activation chemistry. Here, we address this gap by integratin...

Elucidating the nature of the metallocofactors in nitrogenase enzymes, and preparing synthetic analogues of these clusters, is a classic target for bioinorganic chemists. Now the transformation of [Fe...

A biomimetic model for the cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) was found to be also capable of selectively dioxygenating selenocysteamine, suggesting that the lack of reactivity found for the CDO in combinati....

Linear 3d-metal complexes with open-shell metal ions have fascinated coordination chemists for decades. Originally the focus lied on metal(II) species, yet the synthetic possibilities to acquire their...

Gratulation: Heute wurde GDCh-Präsidentin Prof. Dr. Stefanie Dehnen von der IUPAC mit dem Distinguished Women in Chemistry or Chemical Engineering ausgezeichnet.  Die Auszeichnung wird alle zwei Jahre...

A dysprosium amide–alkene complex shows soft magnetic hysteresis loops up to 100 kelvin, arising from the high charge density of the amide ligands and the structural role of the pendant alkene.

[K@crypt-222][TeCN] was synthesized from KCN, Te, and crypt-222 in acetone. We discuss fundamental properties of [TeCN]−: Single crystal X-ray diffraction, nuclear magnetic resonance (13C, 15N, 125Te...
