A Masked Low‐Coordinate and Polarized Au(I)/Pt(0) Complex for Cooperative CX and CH Bond Activation of Pyridines A polarized Au(I)/Pt(0) complex with only two phosphines unlocks cooperative reactivity that is inaccessible for previous Au/Pt saturated systems. Selective C<span class='icomoon'></span>X activation of halopyridines occurs via...

Flash Communication: Strained and Bimetallic Structures of Rhodium and Iridium Germyl Complexes with Phosphinoamido Ligands In the coordination chemistry of heavier tetrylenes (:ER2, where E = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb), chelating P,N-donor ligands occupy a privileged position, though phosphinoamido ligands, [R2P–NR′]−, have been bar...

Single-crystal to single-crystal synthesis of a gold(I)-ammonia complex and H/D exchange in crystallo with D2O Single-crystal to single-crystal solid/gas reactivity of [LAu(C2H4/CO)][BArF4] [L = tris-2-(4,4′-di-tert-butylbiphenyl)phosphine] with NH3 or 15NH3 gives the ammonia complexes [LAu(NH3/15NH3)][BArF4]....

SC-SC reactivity to obtain a gold(I)-NH3 complex (and H/D exchange in crystallo with D2O) using our cavity-shaped phosphine is out now in @daltontrans.rsc.org! Great collaborative work with @wellerchemyork.bsky.social & @camposgroup.bsky.social. Special thanks to Chloe

We are hiring two PhDs on our EU SMOM project for a Sept 2026 start.

The two projects will involve being trained, and becoming expert in, air sensitive, platinum group metal organometallics, single-crystal SMOM synthesis, reactivity, and deployment in sustainable catalysis.

Unambiguous Spectroscopic Characterization of a Gold Difluorocarbene Gold(I) carbenes, defined as [LAu═CR2]+, are key intermediates in catalysis. Their isolation is challenging due to the high electrophilic character of the carbene that cannot be tempered solely by π-b...
