چکیده

Complexes with bulky hydrotris(triazolyl)borate (Ttz) ligands, TtzCuCO, were used to probe how acids change the donor properties of Ttz ligands. (Ttz(tBu,Me))CuCO shows four distinct protonation states and a gradual increase in the CO stretch. The increased electrophilic nature of the Cu center upon protonation leads to enhanced C-H activation catalysis.

Theoretical investigation of the scope of sequential ligand tuning using a bifunctional scorpionate tris(1,2,4-triazolyl)borate-based architecture

The donor properties of a series of tripodal mixed N-donor/carbene ligands derived through sequential alkylation of hydrotris(1,2,4-triazolyl)borate have been investigated by density functional theory (DFT) methods. The structures of complexes of the form [Mo(L)(CO)3] were optimized (L = [HB(1,2,4triazolyl)n(1,2,4-triazol-5-ylidene)3-n] (n = 0 – 3), hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate, hydrotris(3,5dime...

New alkylzinc complexes with bulky tris(triazolyl)borate ligands: surprising water stability and reactivity.

Bulky alkylzinc complexes, (Ttz(tBu,Me))ZnMe and (Ttz(tBu,Me))ZnEt, show remarkable stability towards water and both complexes crystallize with one molecule of adventitious water hydrogen bonded to two triazole rings; in contrast the less bulky complex, (Ttz(Ph,Me))ZnEt, reacts with water to yield (Ttz(Ph,Me))(2)Zn.

Ln(III) methyl and methylidene complexes stabilized by a bulky hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate ligand.

The reaction of Ln(AlMe(4))(3) with bulky hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate (Tp(t)(Bu,Me))H proceeds via a sequence of methane elimination and C-H bond activation, affording unprecedented rare-earth metal ligand moieties including Ln(Me)[(micro-Me)AlMe(3)] and X-ray structurally characterized "Tebbe-like" Ln[(micro-CH(2))(2)AlMe(2)].

Probing Electroweak Top Quark Couplings at Hadron and Lepton Colliders

Although the top quark was discovered almost ten years ago [1,2], many of its properties are still only poorly known [3]. In particular, the couplings of the top quark to the electroweak (EW) gauge bosons have not yet been directly measured. Current data provide only weak constraints on the couplings of the top quark with the EW gauge bosons, except for the ttZ vector and axial vector couplings...
