A transition metal–gallium cluster formed via insertion of “GaI” (2020)
Journal Article
Blundell, T. J., Taylor, L. J., Valentine, A. J., Lewis, W., Blake, A. J., McMaster, J., & Kays, D. L. (2020). A transition metal–gallium cluster formed via insertion of “GaI”. Chemical Communications, 56(58), 8139-8142. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0cc03559a

The reaction between a two-coordinate Co(II) diaryl complex and “GaI” affords 2,6-Pmp2C6H3CoGa3I5, in a new geometry for a heavier group 13-transition metal cluster. Experimental and computational investigations show that this compound is best descri... Read More about A transition metal–gallium cluster formed via insertion of “GaI”.

Influence of molecular design on radical spin multiplicity: characterisation of BODIPY dyad and triad radical anions (2020)
Journal Article
Mangham, B., Hanson-Heine, M. W. D., Davies, E. S., Wriglesworth, A., George, M. W., Lewis, W., Kays, D. L., McMaster, J., Besley, N. A., & Champness, N. R. (2020).

This journal is © the Owner Societies. A strategy to create organic molecules with high degrees of radical spin multiplicity is reported in which molecular design is correlated with the behaviour of radical anions in a series of BODIPY dyads. Upon re... Read More about Influence of molecular design on radical spin multiplicity: characterisation of BODIPY dyad and triad radical anions.

In the published paper, we described the attempted synthesis of Me2NH⋅BD3, according to the method published by Webster et al., which in our hands afforded a mixture of Me2NH⋅BH3 and Me2NH⋅BD3. We would like to clarify that in the paper Webster et al... Read More about Corrigendum: A Highly Active Bidentate Magnesium Catalyst for Amine‐Borane Dehydrocoupling: Kinetic and Mechanistic Studies.
