This review describes our recent efforts in the development of chiral dinuclear vanadium complexes which work as dual activation catalysts for oxidative coupling of 2-naphthols. A chiral dinuclear vanadium(IV) complex (R(a),S,S)-1a possessing (S)-tert-leucine moieties at the 3,3'-positions of the (R)-binaphthyl

Nature has developed an exquisite array of methods to introduce halogen atoms into organic compounds. Most of these enzymes are oxidative and require either hydrogen peroxide or molecular oxygen as a cosubstrate to generate a reactive halogen atom for catalysis.

In the present focused review, vanadate-dependent haloperoxidases and vanadate-inhibited enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphoester bonds are addressed. In these systems, vanadate [HxVO4](3-x)(-) is covalently coordinated to the imidazolyl moiety of an active site histidine, with a geometrical arrangement

Inorganic and organic compounds of vanadium have been shown to exhibit a large range of insulinomimetic effects in the cardiovascular system, including stimulation of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT-4) translocation and glucose transport in adult cardiomyocytes. Furthermore, administration of vanadium compounds
Large-scale energy storage has become the main bottleneck for increasing the percentage of renewable energy in our electricity grids. Redox flow batteries are considered to be among the best options for electricity storage in the megawatt range and large demonstration
