TL;DR: In this article, photo assisted rearrangement reactions of the olefin, including both cis-trans isomerization and 1,3-hydrogen shifts, take place in M(CO) n (olefin) 6 − n complexes with high quantum efficiency.

TL;DR: In this article, the excitation and emission spectra and decay times of several MnX 2-4 (X = Cl −, Br −, 1 − ) complexes of various tetraalkylammonium, -phosphonium, and -arsonium salts have been measured for the pure solids at 298°K and 77°K.

TL;DR: The Cr(CO) 3 (CH 3 CN) 3 complex is found to catalyze the 1,4 addition of hydrogen to 1,3-dienes such as 2-methyl-1, 3-butadiene, trans -1,3 pentadiene and trans, trans -2,4-hexadiene at low temperature (40°) and low H 2 pressure (20 psi) as discussed by the authors.
