Journal ArticleDOI
Zerovalent palladium and nickel complexes of heterocyclic carbenes: Oxidative addition of organic halides, carbon-carbon coupling processes, and the Heck reaction
TL;DR: In this article, the 1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-ylidene ligand (tmiy) has been synthesized and the X-ray crystal structures of complexes 8 and 10 reveal square-planar coordination with the carbene ligands inclined at significant angles to the coordi...
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation, crystal structure and synthesis of arsenobetaine, the arsenical constituent of the western rock lobster panulirus longipes cygnus George

Journal ArticleDOI
Palladium(II) complexes containing mono-, bi- and tridentate carbene ligands. Synthesis, characterisation and application as catalysts in CC coupling reactions

TL;DR: In this article, a number of functionalised heterocyclic carbene complexes have been synthesised from imidazolium salts with Ag2O, which act as carbene transfer agents when reacted with palladium salts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strigolactone Hormones and Their Stereoisomers Signal through Two Related Receptor Proteins to Induce Different Physiological Responses in Arabidopsis
Adrian Scaffidi,Mark T. Waters,Yueming K. Sun,Brian W. Skelton,Kingsley W. Dixon,Emilio L. Ghisalberti,Gavin R. Flematti,Steven M. Smith +7 more
TL;DR: The results support the conclusion that KAI2-dependent signaling does not respond to canonical SLs and the use of specific stereoisomers might provide valuable information about the specific perception systems operating in different plant tissues, parasitic weed seeds, and arbuscular mycorrhizae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Luminescence studies of the intracellular distribution of a dinuclear gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbene complex.
Peter J. Barnard,Louise E. Wedlock,Murray V. Baker,Susan J. Berners-Price,David A. Joyce,Brian W. Skelton,James H. Steer +6 more
TL;DR: A bidentate cyclophane N-heterocyclic carbene ligand has been used to synthesize a new dinuclear Au{sup I} complex that enables the complex to be used as a luminescent probe for distribution studies in single living cancer cells.
