Nanocrystalline Transition Metal Ferrites Synthesis, Characterization and Surface Functionalization
… by the hydrolysis of the resulting chelate iron alkoxide complexes in the presence of an alkaline hydroxide. Due to the passivation of their surfaces with DEG molecules, the as-prepared nanoparticles are stable against agglomeration and can be easily dispersed in polar protic solvents (water, …

Ligand field considerations for the reactivity of high valent metal-oxo complexes and of bimetallic HX splitting photocatalysts
Inorganic molecular complexes are used to probe mechanistic steps in two reaction reactions related to energy storage. The first reaction considered is the O-O bond formation step required for water oxidation to oxygen. The second reaction considered is the photocatalytic generation of hydrogen and …

Synthesis and characteristic chemistry of sixteen-electron group 6 hydrocarbyl-containing nitrosyl complexes
… previous method used to prepare CpW(NO)(alkyl)2 complexes from their diiodide precursors. The three most significant problems inherent to the original synthetic method were: (a) the reagents being used (i.e. transition-metal dihalide, alkylating agent and solvent), (b) excessive hydrolysis during …

Developing C–H bond Functionalization, Organocatalytic Hydrophosphination Reactions and Anti-Invasion Agents
… 1-3, we will discuss the development of iron alkoxide complexes for C–H bond functionalization. Currently, methods for C–H bond functionalization rely on precious metal catalysts that present environmental and health concerns. Earth abundant metals have been explored as sustainable catalysts; …

Sharing the Burden of Reactivity: Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity of Phosphino-Alkoxide First-Row Transition Metal Complexes
… This dissertation describes the synthesis of complexes featuring earth-abundant 3d transition metals in monometallic complexes, bimetallic complexes, and frustrated Lewis pairs. Specifically, a phosphino-alkoxide ligand was developed to promote high-spin complex formation, produce …
