Kinetic studies indicate that trans-[FeH(H2)(dppe)2]+ reacts with an excess of NEt3 to form cis-[FeH2(dppe)2] in a single kinetic step. The second-order rate constant is strongly affected by the presence of added salts, an acceleration being observed with BF4- and PF6- salts and a deceleration with BPh4-. Theoretical calculations indicate that the role of the accelerating anions consists of the formation of ion pairs that provide a more effective reaction pathway for deprotonation. However, for the ion pair with the bulky BPh4- anion, steric crowding in the proximities of the dihydrogen ligand hinders the approach of the base, and the reaction is decelerated.

A new concept for obtaining cationic complexes with triflate counteranions from coordinating triflato ligands was developed. Various routes are leading to titanium(IV) and titanium(III) triflato complexes efficiently. The reactions of pentafulvene titanium complexes with either triflic acid or silver triflate give the corresponding titanium(IV) triflato complexes in excellent yields.

The hydrolysis of imidazolinium chlorides takes place readily in a basic water/dichloromethane biphasic mixture at room temperature. Experimental parameters were optimized to afford full conversions and high yields of γ-aminoformamides starting from twelve symmetrical substrates with alkyl or aryl substituents on their nitrogen atoms, and five unsymmetrical 1-alkyl-3-arylimidazolinium chlorides. NMR and XRD analyses showed that the cleavage of unsymmetrical salts led to γ-alkylamino-N-arylformamides with a high regioselectivity and that bulky alkyl or aryl groups on the formamide moiety led to the isolation of the (E)-isomer in high stereoisomeric purity (>95 %), whereas smaller and more flexible alkyl substituents afforded mixtures of (E)- and (Z)-rotamers.

The first syntheses of functionalized sila-adamantanes via site-selective reactions are described. Mechanistic inquiry into the isomerization of sila-adamantane revealed new approaches for installing halides at the 2-position of the cluster. Meanwhile, isomerization via Lewis acid catalysts with non-nucleophilic counteranions provided access to sila-adamantane on the gram-scale, enabling us to discover strategies for substituting its 1-, 3-, 5-, and 7-positions with identical or distinct functional groups.

Previously, we have demonstrated that thermal-assisted techniques can accelerate the extraction of inert platinum group metals (PGMs), while they still have several concerns about difficulty of temperature control in actual extraction contactors and safety risks arising from heating organic solvents. In this study, we report a complexation-distribution separated extraction process for the accelerated extraction of inert PGMs. This extraction method includes two steps: (1) complexation of PGMs with extractants in aqueous solution and (2) distribution of the formed complex from the aqueous phase to organic one.
