α-diimine iron complexes have been suggested to catalyse polymerisation via two distinct pathways, depending on the spin state of the iron complex. Here, we study a typical complex of this family, (R'')[N,N]FeCl(2), with [N,N] = Cy-N=CR''-CR''=N-Cy (Cy = cyclohexyl, R''

Silica supported iron catalyst was prepared from rice husk ash (RHA) via the sol-gel technique using an aqueous solution of iron(III) salt in 3.0 M HNO3. The sample was dried at 110 degrees C and labeled as RHA-Fe. A sample

The discovery of a novel arylpalladium(II) reduction enables the synthesis of diarylmethanes via reductive benzylation. Benzyl chlorides were found to be the major source of hydride, acting as an alkylating agent and an aprotic surrogate for benzyl alcohol. This represents

A new cobalt-catalysed reductive coupling of aryl halides with benzyl chlorides is reported; a variety of diarylmethanes can be prepared in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions using CoBr(2) as catalyst and Zn dust; this new cobalt-catalysed coupling
