A review of the present state of organozinc coordination chemistry. with special emphasis on compounds of the type RZnX is given. Their preparation as well as some factors determining their structure and stability are discussed. Certain organozinc coordination compounds have been found to be effective catalysts for cyclo-oligomerization and polymerization reactions. in particular of oxygen-cont...

With the emergence of energy and environmental problems deepening devices to solve these problems, demand for carbon materials is increasing higher performance required. While a variety scientific knowledge has been poured into creation innovative materials, coordination chemistry also makes significant contribution especially metal-containing materials. In this review, we summarize new related...

The correlation between electronic densities and active molecular vibrations drives the spin–vibronic mechanism of ultrafast decays in coordination chemistry.

Numerous coordination compounds have recently been identified exhibit the technologically important property of bulk magnetic ordering as ferro-, ferri- and antiferromagnets. These range from ionic [Fe(C5Me5)2]+[TCNE].- (TCNE = tetracyanoethylene) ferromagnet to 3-D extended network ferrimagnets. Additionally, many magnetically ordered percyanometallates are summarized. This Award presentation ...

Over the past few decades, the realm of inorganic medicinal chemistry has been dominated by the study of the anti-cancer properties of transition metal complexes, particularly those based on platinum or ruthenium. However, comparatively less attention has been focused on the development of metal complexes for the treatment of inflammatory or autoimmune diseases. Metal complexes possess a number...

Controlling the formation of coordination bonds is pivotal to the development of a plethora of functional metal-organic materials, ranging from coordination polymers, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) to metallodrugs. The interest in and commercialization of such materials has created a need for more efficient, environmentally-friendly routes for making coordination bonds. Solid-state coordinatio...

Cultivation of the postgraduate creativity is the core content of postgraduate education. The reformation of postgraduate curriculums should lay stress on cultivating of innovation ability as the main purpose, update the educational concepts, reinforce teaching reforms, optimize the contents of curriculum structure, and carry out a great diversity of teaching organizational modes. Studies on co...
