TL;DR: A cationic iron(III) complex was active for the polymerization of various epoxides, whereas the analogous neutral iron(II) complex is inactive as discussed by the authors, which is orthogonal to what was observed previously for lactide polymerization.

TL;DR: Less than 10% of the plastics generated globally are recycled, while the rest are incinerated, accumulated in landfills, or leach into the environment as discussed by the authors , while new technologies are emerging to chemically recycle them.

TL;DR: In this article , the thermodynamics and mechanism of the hypothetical N−H bond forming steps are evaluated through the reverse reaction, conversion of ammonia to the nitride complex, and it is shown that addition of the first H atom to the rhenium(iii) amido complex is a thermochemical bottleneck for NH3 generation.

TL;DR: In this paper , the synthesis of Fe, Co, and Ni complexes supported by an iPrPNPhP (iPrPNP = PhN(CH2CH2PiPr2)2) pincer ligand is described.
