Journal Article
Nolla-Saltiel, R., Geer, A. M., Sharpe, H. R., Huke, C. D., Taylor, L. J., Linford-Wood, T. G., …Kays, D. L. (2023). Organoruthenium Complexes Containing Phosphinodicarboxamide Ligands. Inorganics, 11(9), Article 372. https://doi.org/10.3390/inorganics11090372

Ruthenium complexes of phosphinocarboxamide ligands, and their use to form metallacycles using halide abstraction/deprotonation reactions are reported. Thus, [Ru(p-cym){PPh2C(=O)NHR}Cl2; R = iPr (1), Ph (2), p-tol (3)] and [Ru(p-cym){PPh2C(=O)N(R)C(=... Read More about Organoruthenium Complexes Containing Phosphinodicarboxamide Ligands.

Selective reduction and homologation of carbon monoxide by organometallic iron complexes (2018)
Journal Article
Sharpe, H. R., Geer, A. M., Taylor, L. J., Gridley, B. M., Blundell, T. J., Blake, A. J., …Kays, D. L. (2018). Selective reduction and homologation of carbon monoxide by organometallic iron complexes. Nature Communications, 9, Article 3757. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-06242-w

Carbon monoxide is a key C1 feedstock for the industrial production of hydrocarbons, where it is used to make millions of tonnes of chemicals, fuels, and solvents per annum. Many transition metal complexes can coordinate CO2 but the formation of new... Read More about Selective reduction and homologation of carbon monoxide by organometallic iron complexes.
