Carbon-Hydrogen Bond Activation, C-N Bond Coupling, and Cycloaddition Reactivity of a Three-Coordinate Nickel Complex Featuring a Terminal Imido Ligand

Description: In this study, we describe reaction chemistry of the first nickel(II) complexes having a terminally bound imido ligand, (dtbpe)Ni=NR (R = 2,6-ⁱPr₂C₆H₃, 2,3,6-Me₃C₆H₂ (Mes), and Ad) with various small unsaturated molecules.

Multireference Character for 4D Transition Metal-Containing Molecules

Description: This article proposes new criteria, namely T₁ ≥ 0.045, D₁ ≥ 0.120, and %TAE ≥ 10%, as a gauge for 4d transition metal-containing molecules to predic the possible need to employ multireference (MR) wave function-based methods to describe energetic and spectroscopic properties.
