Journal Article
Liu, Y., Coles, N. T., Cajiao, N., Taylor, L. J., Davies, E. S., Barbour, A., …Kays, D. L. (2024). Mechanistic investigations of the Fe(ii) mediated synthesis of squaraines. Chemical Science, 15(25), 9599-9611. https://doi.org/10.1039/D4SC01286K

The scission and homologation of CO is a fundamental process in the Fischer–Tropsch reaction. However, given the heterogeneous nature of the catalyst and forcing reaction conditions, it is difficult to determine the intermediates of this reaction. He...

Synthesis and Structural Studies of peri-Substituted Acenaphthenes with Tertiary Phosphine and Stibine Groups (2024)
Journal Article
Taylor, L. J., Lawson, E. E., Cordes, D. B., Athukorala Arachchige, K. S., Slawin, A. M. Z., Chalmers, B. A., & Kilian, P. (2024). Synthesis and Structural Studies of peri-Substituted Acenaphthenes with Tertiary Phosphine and Stibine Groups. Molecules, 29(8), Article 1841. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules29081841

Two mixed peri-substituted phosphine-chlorostibines, Acenap(PiPr2)(SbPhCl) and Acenap(PiPr2)(SbCl2) (Acenap = acenaphthene-5,6-diyl) reacted cleanly with Grignard reagents or nBuLi to give the corresponding tertiary phosphine-stibines Acenap(PiPr2)(S...
