Non‐Innocent Ligands as Mediators for Visible‐Light‐Initiated Element–Carbon Bond Homolysis in Main Group Chemistry This minireview discusses the facilitation of E─C bond homolysis of main group compounds with visible light by the coordination of redox non-innocent ligands. Important conceptual coherencies, potent....

New paper now out in Early View @angewandtechemie.bsky.social !

We @brehergroup.bsky.social describe radical #photochemistry of main group #organometallics with visible light. With our article we want to make the described concept accessible to a broader #chemistry community.

Reactivity of an ortho‐Phenylene‐bridged Al/P Frustrated Lewis Pair Towards Small Molecules Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLPs) as ambiphilic molecules are prone to activate small molecules and are in the focus of interest for many years. In this paper, we present the first ortho-phenylene bridge...

The first mono ortho-phenylene bridged Al/P FLP was synthesized and characterized. Its reactivity was probed against several small molecules. Thanks to Melina Dianas 👍 doi.org/10.1002/ejic...

Stabilities and Limitations in the Reactivity of Phosphorus Ylide‐Based Aluminum‐ and Gallium‐Carbon Ambiphiles − A Combined Experimental and Computational Approach The unexpected reactivity and stability limits of phosphorus ylide-based aluminum- and gallium-carbon ambiphiles are described. While the previously published t-butyl-substituted compound (2-{AltBu2}...

A detailed study on the reactivity of ambiphilic metallacycles is presented. Thanks to @felixkraemer.bsky.social, @pascalweisenb.bsky.social and @isra-group.bsky.social)! Have a look at the paper 👉 doi.org/10.1002/ejic...
