Transition metal complexes have become pivotal emissive materials across a range of light-emitting technologies, from organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and light-emitting electrochemical cells ...

Gas phase studies of transition metal complexes reveal intrinsic bonding motifs and reaction pathways unperturbed by solvents. By isolating metal–ligand assemblies in vacuum, researchers probe ...

Skeletons I-V containing three or four coplanar M–C σ bonds are shown on the left. The two skeletons with five coplanar M–C σ bonds are placed on the right. Art by Dafa Chen. This study is led by Dr.

Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition. Typically believed to involve transition metals donating electrons to organic ...
