Prof. Braunstein gave a lecture at Ochanomizu University.

Prof. Braunstein of Strasbourg University (France) gave a lecture entitled "Metal - Ligand and Metal - Metal Interactions in Complexes".

Abstract:

Functional Ligands and their Complexes, Reactivity and Catalytic Relevance. Nitrogen-containing heterofunctional ligands allow a fine-tuning of the reactivity of transition metals and provide a considerable diversity of complexes often endowed with unique structural features and reactivity. We shall discuss situations where ligands with N,P, N,O or N,P,N donor sets have led to structurally interesting complexes, have been shown to display hemilabile behaviour, allowed the insertion of (functional) olefins into a Pd-C bond or given rise to efficient and selective Ni(II) ethylene oligomerization catalysts.
