(2019-10-01)The use of Z-ligands to modulate the electronic property of transition metal centers is a powerful strategy in catalyst design. Our group has shown that antimony-based ambiphilic ligand, accept electron density from adjacent ...
-
(2016-10-27)The coordination chemistry of antimony-containing ligands has been historically understudied relative to phosphines and arsines due to the widely held perception that their properties varied little from their lighter ...
-
(2009-05-15)This dissertation focuses on the phosphorescence of organic chromophores using perfluoro-ortho-phenylene mercury (1) and bis(pentafluorophenyl)mercury (2) as external heavy atom effect inducers. To ascertain the suitability ...
-
(2020-05-27)Over the past two decades, the chemistry of binuclear complexes containing a transition metal and a main group element from the 4th and 5th period has attracted a renewed interest prompted by the atypical transition ...
-
(2019-11-26)Over the past decade, the chemistry of σ-accepting or Z-type ligands based on main group elements has drawn renewed attention because of the realization that their interaction with a transition metal (M) could be used to ...

(2012-02-14)Although fluoride is used at low concentrations in drinking water as a means of promoting dental health, it poses a danger at high exposure levels where it can lead to skeletal fluorosis or other adverse effects. Cyanide ...
-
(2012-07-16)The recognition and capture of fluoride, cyanide and azide anions is attracting great deal of attention due to the negative effects of these anions on the environment and on human health. One of common methods used for ...
-
(2014-12-11)The work presented herein will discuss the synthesis, characterization and reactivity of electrophilic organometallic compounds of ruthenium, tantalum, and silicon in order to explore unusual properties, reactivity, or ...

(Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)Trimeric perfluoro-ortho-phenylene mercury (1) constitutes one of the simplest trifunctional Lewis acidic hosts. Cooperative effects arising from the proximity of the mercury(II) centers, the electron-withdrawing properties ...
