Highlights of 45 years of research: A personal account

Abstract: a b s t r a c tThis part of my biosketch, which I prepared on invitation by the Editors, made me realize again how entangled my interest for doing research and teaching and management have been over the years. Working together with my students and colleagues has always been a strong motivation and pleasure for me and I hope that this sketch of our research reflects our common enthusiasm for what we achieved.In hindsight, trying to overlook almost 45 years of research, various main themes can be discerned that … Show more

“…Late-transition-metal complexes of electron-donating and bulky “pincer” ligands have found important applications in synthesis, bond activation, and catalysis. The lutidine-based pincer ligands (Scheme ) are highly electron donating ligands with a relatively low trans influence of the pyridinic nitrogen and benzylic “arms” amenable to deprotonation.…”

“…It should be noted that such phenomenon in which the Pt group as a substituent affects the character of a nucleophilic center has been reported. 36,37 As can be seen in Table 1, the energy (or free energy) barriers for N-methylation of 1b and 1c in chloroform are 9.3 and 9.2 (or 21.1 and 18.9) kcalmol −1 , respectively. The differences are very small and this shows that the inductive and mesomeric influences exerted by Pt on the free N centers in 1b and 1c are essentially the same.…”

“…The two nitrogens increase electron density around metal center, contributing to the stability of Pt−η −I 2 interaction. The possible reasons for this stability are the presence of σ-donating amine ligands, the plane of the aryl ring which coincides with the coordination plane, and steric constrains [39][40][41]. This opens new pathways for investigating the variation of atoms involved in pincer complexes.…”
