NMR Chemical Shifts of Trace Impurities: Common Laboratory Solvents, Organics, and Gases in Deuterated Solvents Relevant to the Organometallic Chemist

TL;DR: Tables of 1H and 13C NMR chemical shifts have been compiled for common organic compounds often used as reagents or found as products or contaminants in deuterated organic solvents as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Understanding and exploiting C–H bond activation

TL;DR: The recent development of promising catalytic systems highlights the potential of organometallic chemistry for useful C-H bond activation strategies that will ultimately allow us to exploit Earth's alkane resources more efficiently and cleanly as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Catalysis Research of Relevance to Carbon Management: Progress, Challenges, and Opportunities

TL;DR: The goal of the "Opportunities for Catalysis Research in Carbon Management" workshop was to review within the context of greenhouse gas/carbon issues the current state of knowledge, barriers to further scientific and technological progress, and basic scientific research needs in the areas of H2 generation and utilization.
Journal ArticleDOI

.sigma.-Bond metathesis for carbon-hydrogen bonds of hydrocarbons and Sc-R (R = H, alkyl, aryl) bonds of permethylscandocene derivatives. Evidence for noninvolvement of the .pi. system in electrophilic activation of aromatic and vinylic C-H bonds

TL;DR: In this article, a structural analysis of hydride and hydrocarbyl derivatives of permethylscandocene has been carried out, and the possibility of involvement of the π-bond system in electrophilic activation of aromatic and vinylic C-H bonds has been examined.
