Homogeneous platinum catalysts for hydrosilylation are essential for the chemical industry and society, through the production of commodities such as functional silicones. However, the high boiling ...

A few years later, varespladib gained a new lease on life. As the Los Angeles Times reported last month, for several years Matthew Lewin at the California Academy of Sciences (San Francisco) had tried ...

The iron-catalyzed hydrosilylation of alkynes undergoes two potential energy surfaces, the triplet (red) and quintet (blue) states, where the spin crossover effectively lowers the reaction energy ...

Hybrid PEDOT:PSS-silicon heterojunction solar cells have the advantages of low temperature, low cost and solution process. However, as a low-quality native oxide layer can easily form on the surface ...

Hydrosilylation is a chemical process in which organofunctional groups, such as glycols, olefins or ketones, are “docked” onto the periphery of silicones. This is done in order to modify the ...

Alkene hydrosilylation is typically performed with Pt catalysts, but inexpensive base-metal catalysts would be preferred. We report a Co catalyst for anti-Markovnikov alkene hydrosilylation that can ...
