Soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) have been performed on several nickel-containing bioinorganic complexes. RIXS spectral features are shown to be ...

A nickel-catalyzed direct C-2 alkylation of indoles through monodentate-chelation assistance has been described. This reaction proceeds via an unusual strategy by the use of a well-designed and ...
