Phosphinidenes
Of the low-valent organophosphorus compounds phosphinidenes occupy a special place. In ‘free’ phosphinidenes the phosphorus atom carries a single... -
Photoinduced Reactions of Metal Carbenes in Organic Synthesis
The photoinduced reactions of metal carbene complexes, particularly Group 6 Fischer carbenes, are comprehensively presented in this chapter with a... -
Crystalline cyclic (alkyl)(amino)stannylene via transient stannyne
We demonstrate that a bulky cyclic amino ligand, specifically 1,1,3,3-tetraphenylisoindolinyl, can facilitate the formation of a transient stannyne,...

Organic Reactions and Their Mechanisms
Unlike inorganic reaction which take place between ions, the organic reactions are basically molecular in nature. An organic reaction takes place by... -
Electronic Structure and Reactivity of Metal Carbenes
Metal carbenes have for a long time been classified as Fischer or Schrock carbenes depending on the oxidation state of the metal. Since the... -
Chromium-Templated Benzannulation and Haptotropic Metal Migration
This review highlights the recent development in intramolecular migration of metal templates along fused arene skeletons. The focus is on the... -
Cycloaddition Reactions of Group 6 Fischer Carbene Complexes
