Journal ArticleDOI
Tetravalent cerium carbene complexes
TL;DR: The tetravalent organometallic cerium complex should behave like the [UL4] analogue, but the two complexes show significantly different structures, highlighting the differences between 4f and 5f metals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stabilisation of trivalent platinum by structurally accommodating thiamacrocycles
Alexander J. Blake,Robert O. Gould,Alan J. Holder,Timothy I. Hyde,Aidan J. Lavery,Mobolanle O. Odulate,Martin Schröder +6 more
TL;DR: The complex cation [Pt(1)2]2+[(1)= 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane] shows a quasi square based pyramidal structure with one non-bonding sulphur donor atom; electrochemical oxidation at + 0.5 V. vs. Fc0/Fc+(Fc = ferrocene) at 20 °C in MeCN affords a paramagnetic platinum(III) species as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and structure of [U{C(PPh2NMes)2}2] (Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2): A homoleptic uranium bis(carbene) complex with two formal UC double bonds
TL;DR: U{C(PPh2NMes)2}2] is the first homoleptic uranium bis(carbene) complex with two formal U=C double bonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two- and three-dimensional CuSCN co-ordination networks including new CuSCN structural motifs
Alexander J. Blake,Neil R. Brooks,Neil R. Champness,Marcello Crew,Lyall R. Hanton,Peter Hubberstey,Simon Parsons,Martin Schröder +7 more
TL;DR: The reaction of two equivalents of CuSCN with one equivalent of pyrazine in ethanol and aqueous ammonia provided two-and three-dimensional networks depending on the ligand used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macrocyclic diiminodipyrromethane complexes: structural analogues of Pac-Man porphyrins.
TL;DR: The complexation of palladium(II) by a unique family of [2+2] diiminodipyrromethane macrocycles yields compounds that adopt structures reminiscent of Pac-Man porphyrins as mentioned in this paper.
