  1. Aryl Halide Carboxylation via Decarboxylative Metal–Halogen Exchange
    Novel decarboxylative metal-halogen exchange mechanism enables mild carboxylation of aryl halides using bench-stable potassium carboxylate salts without pressurized equipment or organometallic.
  2. Valence bond representations with +ve charges on adjacent atoms? An odd titanium complex analysed.
    Computational analysis of titanium complexes reveals that adjacent positively charged nitrogen atoms form stable bonds with unusually low interaction energies.
  3. Cyclometalated platinum products depend on the halogen in the ligand
    Study of cyclometalated platinum compounds formed via competing C-H and C-X bond activation pathways, with mechanistic insights from computational and spectroscopic analysis.
  4. Additive radii fitted for sixfold metal–metal bonding
    Additive covalent radii for sixfold metal-metal bonded dimers across transition metals and actinides with 12 valence electrons in (1σ)²(2σ)²π⁴δ⁴ configuration.
  5. New fused NiII porphyrin dimers were synthesized
    Synthesis of fused-azepine- and 1H-azocine-bridged NiII porphyrin dimers via Pictet-Spengler cyclization and oxidative transformations, yielding NIR-absorbing and fluorescent complexes.
