Investigations of Phosphenium Insertion into Phosphorus-Phosphorus Bonds
(2011-05-02)Despite many drawn parallels between carbon and phosphorus, the development of catena-phosphorus chemistry is superficially explored when compared to carbon. This lack of progression is especially highlighted for cationic ... -
Small Molecule Activation Facilitated by Main Group Elements
(2021-08-30)Main group containing systems are emerging as an alternative to transition metal catalysts, often showing complementary reactivity. Transition metal complexes have provided the basis for fascinating catalytic reactions ... -
Some Aspects of the Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry of Dipyrrins
(2020-08-05)Oligopyrroles and their complexes with metals and metalloids are often intensely coloured, and as such, are well-studied as dyes and components of organic light-harvesting systems. Of particular interest in this thesis are ...
