Si(OTeF5)4 – A Strong, Homoleptic Pentafluoroorthotellurate‐Based Lewis Superacidic Silane

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The homoleptic pentafluoroorthotellurate‐based silane Si(OTeF5)4 was synthesized and fully characterized via spectroscopic techniques. The Lewis superacidic properties were investigated theoretically as well as experimentally and its utilization as a Lewis acid is demonstrated by the reaction with nitrogen bases.

Xanthene‐Based FLPs Featuring Perchloroarylborane Substitutents: Interplay of Noncovalent Aggregation and Dihydrogen Activation

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Frustrated Lewis Pairs featuring perchloroarylborane Lewis acid groups are found to display unprecedented H2 uptake as a function of temperature, resulting from the thermodynamic balance between H─H cleavage and noncovalent intermolecular aggregation.

Exploring factors affecting individual GPS-based activity space and how researcher-defined food environments represent activity space, exposure and use of food outlets

International Journal of Health Geographics, 2021
Background Obesity remains one of the most challenging public health issues of our modern time. Despite the face validity of claims for influence, studies on the causes of obesity have reported the influence of the food environment to be inconsistent ...

Exploring the Catalytic Activity of Ge(II) and Sn(II) Cationic Crown Ether Complexes: Hydrosilylation

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Easily synthesized [Ge([12]crown‐4)2][OTf]2 catalyzes the hydrosilylation of aldehydes to give reductively coupled ethers via a carbonyl‐activated reaction pathway. The mechanism proceeds through two distinct steps: hydrosilylation followed by etherification. The open coordination face of the active cationic Ge(II) catalyst facilitates the coordination

Reactivity of a Soft Indium‐Based Frustrated Lewis Pair Towards Alkynes

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
To bind or not to bind—The pyridine‐stabilized FLP tBu2 In(py)CH2P tBu2 forms reversible adducts with nonsymmetric alkynes and reacts with PhCCH as a “hidden” In/C‐FLP, forming a neutral indiumalkyl. The geminal pyridine stabilized frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) tBu2In(py)CH2PtBu2 (1·py) was reacted with various alkynes.
