A series of new oxomolybdenum(IV) complexes involving some NSO donors as the main ligand frame; the first use of diacetyldihydrazones to stabilize the MoO +2 acceptor centre

TL;DR: An array of neutral oxomolybdenum(IV) complexes with potentially pentadentate ONSNO donor bases in the form of thiocarbodihydrazone and substituted salicylaldehydes actually acting as tridentate OnS donor ligands (H3L) were synthesized through oxo abstraction of the corresponding cis-dioxomoly bdenum (VI) complexes as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel lithium Schiff-base cluster complexes as electron injectors: synthesis, crystal structure, thin film characterisation and their performance in OLEDs

TL;DR: In this article, a set of novel lithium Schiff base cluster compounds has been synthesised and characterised for the first time and tested as electron injectors in OLED devices, and their electrical, electronic, thermal and optical properties have been investigated and compared with the industry standards LiF and lithium quinolinolate (LiQ).
Journal ArticleDOI

Supramolecular interactions in 4,4′-Bipyridine cobalt(II) nitrate networks

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that 4,4,4-bipyridine cobalt(II) nitrate networks with molar ratios of 3:2 and 3:1 are possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bridgehead enolates and bridgehead alkenes in a welwistatin model series.

TL;DR: Bridgehead metallation is possible in a ketone having the welwistatin skeleton, and this facilitates installation of the isothiocyanate function present in the natural product, and also enables synthesis of remarkable bridgehead alkenes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rhenium complexes of tetra-aza macrocycles: the synthesis and single-crystal X-ray structure of trans-[Re(O)2(cyclam)]Cl·2(BPh3·H2O)

TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction of [ReOCl3(PPh3)2] with 1,4,8,11-tetra-azacyclotetradecane (cyclam) in CH2Cl2 affords an intermediate [Re(O)2(cyclam)]+ in solution, and the single-crystal X-ray structure of the complex shows octahedral ReV with the tetra-aza macrocyclic ligand bound in the equatorial plane adopting an RRSS(trans-III) configuration at the co-
